Don't start on him loo. Anyone can make a joke about a typed accent. Lightfinger, check the main site. I'm sure it has information on this. In fact, I'm pretty sure there's a program available that turns any pic into a portrait of the correct size and colours etc etc etc. Try the Downloads section.
No, also...*african-americans* use that. It's called Ebonics, and it's very hot amongst the youth... So alotta *cool* people use it in our school to try to be even *cooler*. It is almost the same thing as southern accent but prounced *african-american*eshly. I know it sounds stupid but that's the sad truth. There's a definition for ya.
