    I've been viewing this forum in SubSilver for a long time and I've forgotten how cool the Terra-Arcanum view is. Sure, you sometimes have to deal with popups, but that's not so bad. Besides, all the avatars look that much more awesome and cool.

    Okay, this was a pointless observation. If it gets deleted or vaulted, that's okay. It would be the first topic I've made that went to the vault so I wouldn't feel bad.

    Can't say I've ever tried SubSilver...I'll have to give it a run...

    Anyway...if this is going to be a pointless thread....then...

    Is that Paul McCartney's eye? :D

    [edit] Hey - it's PCPP style! Kinda crappy though...it gives the forum a whole different feel...I'm sticking with T-A.

    More pointless threads have certainly been posted, and few of them have been vaulted, O Benevolent Huggle Master.

    I use the T-A theme when I can, that is on those rare occasions I'm using Internet Explorer. Popups I don't mind, but with Netscape I get a "cannot connect to adserver" error every time I click a link, and it gets annoying after a fashion. But otherwise, yeah, the T-A theme is like way cool. 8)

    No, it's a drawing by Escher or however you spell his name. If you look really closely, you can see a reflection of something in the eye.

    It is very different. It's a lot simpler and feels a little bit more open. Despite that, I'm going back to Terra-Arcanum.

    I use subSilver all the time, the T-A theme is too dark on my monitor.

    PCPP also sucks. I realised this when they sold their souls and proclaimed NWN the Best Game Evahâ„¢.

    I use the custom Octillicus theme, it adjusts to my mood and flatters me incessantly, for example: The button that is marked "submit" for you says "Offer the world another Morsel of your unending and quite probably lethal brilliance, O Lord" and "members" for you is "Peons, Subjects and other lesser Life Forms" for me.

    Just another one of the little perks I get for being me.

    I'll accept the post if you change the title from 'Minister' to 'Banana King' I might take you up on it . That is if this whole American Imperialism thing doesn't work out.

    New Communist Regime? That sounds rather sinister. Is it going to be like Big Jar is watching you? If so, I think that I'll move to another planet. That'd be really creepy, methinks.

    For some reason my computer has frozen 3 times while I was perusing the forums since I've switched to T-A. As a result, I'm back to SubSilver. Of course they're probably not connected, but I'm a superstitious child. I'm pretty sure I just misspelled superstitious but oh well.

    Haven't given Sub Silver a shot yet. This view seems fine with me...

    With SubSilver there are no popups. Thats a plus.

    Moh, I can live with a few popups...
    It's that window that keeps asking me to install some kind of Weather Control device that's starting to annoy me...

    Don't buy it, it's part of a scheme set up by Gnomes

    And here I was thinking the Huggle Master was supposed to be the all-things-cute-n-fluffy type. When in fact it is just a ruse to lure you into his Life-Sucking Embrace of Death. Silly me.
