Really frightening :)
right or left side scroll bar click... drag the bar to the bottom.
..for the description, obviously, not the image ;-) greets chris
... i know that i am just an excuse for an artist, but as several people in popular literature have noted: The description is sometimes more popular than the actual thing. Try to remember the last time you were in a restaurant and studied the menu... Soyburg
well, you seem to have profound arguments at hand at times you need them (I noted other comments *gg*) why not try to combine your efforts at argueing and imaging, then == inventing a hit-it-with-the-hammer slogan for KDE 3.0 what we need is some true marketing, I suppose you are the right person to get something solid going with that open source, open desktops, open graphics, open marketing *gg* as opposed to the recent win xp campaigns T====H====O====U====G====H====T====S anyone know, why m$ is hiding that small xp logo in a field of seducing greens / blues? yeah, I do dude: given that logos of 95,98,98SE,ME series grew with the installation size of the standard system (not touching the bugs yet) MS felt that it was time to create something people find interesting and sth that has true proportions to what is packaged. so no lies anymore... you get 1.5 GB of green software now and 0.1 Gig of what really matters at M$, the logo in the middle
to login, .. that one was mine *lol*
... reply to this posting to get heard. Because some asshole made a comment which has an actual lenghth of > 3400 lines. If this isn't worth of an intervention by the site maintainers - then what is? Sheer curiosity Soyburg
... the same asshole has managed to drop the voting of this download by 10% in just 12 minutes. For your information. Soyburg
I have no idea where these people are coming from. Pulling stunts like the one below, lowering votes, and even being just plain nasty in accusations towards some of the artists here is pretty ridiculous.
... it took more than 40 minutes. Thanks to eveyone who voted "good" instead. Soyburg
...Mr. Anonymous: Show yourself. If you live on the same contintent as i do - i'll be more that willing to meet you in person. I hope you got a good dentist. Soyburg
hahaha you funny pet. i push you into grounds while you are on the way towards me and ask myself 'what was that' after peeing onto your bleeding face.
Remain anonymous. As you please. Soyburg
your mother prefers anal sex. just belive me i did her once. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
man, who ARE these pussies? thought you should know, soyburg: i gave you a positive just to spite him/her. i actually kinda like the desktop (my average screen brightness setting is 37%) but i think anonymous cowards who just try to be nasty without having the balls to name themselves, and who resort to cheap-ass tricks like long posts and anonymous negative votes, deserve to be sodomized. like those pussies who keep writing worm viruses. solidarity, homie!
The best desciption I've ever seen. ;) Very good. P.S. I don't think it is too dark.
