    My steampunk pimp. Yes, I know there's a graphical error. It also doesn't show him swinging the cane around his shoulders.

    Not bad. Not bad at all. Now all you need is something like this to go with it:

    Ah, meez.com, that was a fun thing. I remember creating little above a year ago a wannabe self-portrait for my deviantart account. Now where was it...
    :goes to meez.com:
    What, they don't run under Opera!?
    :pokes IE with a stick a few times and hesitantly decides to use it:
    Wow, they have a whole steampunk section now?
    Oh great, the browser crashes in the middle.
    :downloads and installs Firefox:
    Hmph, I don't like it as much as I did when I created it, but it's good enough for me to have my laziness discourage me from editing anything in it, with the exception of extending the hair.
    Not sure which I prefer though, the throne version or the sword one.

    Reducing the eventual number of frames is good for lowering the file size, but those mezzes often end up in idiotic sequences, sadly. It often destroys the very reason why a particular animation was chosen.

    Redundant? Why, I'm pretty sure it instantly turns the pages on command.

    rroyo: that's positively brilliant. Don't listen to naysayers. Redundancy is a hallmark of steampunk. That steampowered gremoire would be the perfect logbook for a steampunk rpg.
    I was originally going to do a self-portrait as well but I didn't feel children should be exposed to an image strongly resembling that of an anemic, anorexic Jesus.

    That's just because you have expensive taste. Learn to be a cheap ass like me and you can go through life for free.

    Not that that's unusual.

    Is there a user agent setting in IE? It's been ages since I fucked around in Windows although I suspect that someone has gone and changed IE to make it look like something else...

    I've never crashed in Firefox. Except on my university's poorly programmed ACE program.

    Firefox crashed so much on me when I tried it I went back to IE and was content, it was the buggiest thing I have ever tried, froze my PC a couple of times a day.

    But now I have Chrome and all is well.

    Horseshit, it crashed plentiful on Arch64 and does the same now on Fedora 11 if you start opening more than one page containing heavy flash apps (such as youtube) which, as far as I know, is due to shitful 64 bit implementation that's available. Can't speak for 32bit though.

    I'm running 64 bit Ubuntu. I've noticed that everything gets shit slow if i load a lot of heavy flash pages, so I generally don't load too many at once. But yeah, the implementation is BAD.

    I've rarely had firefox crash even when I have a half dozen George Carlin youtube videos running simultaneously in a beautiful symphony of anti-politico-religious ranting.

    I just realised how much of an understatement "BAD" was. Try browsing the new Mass Effect 2 site. That should be http://masseffect.bioware.com for the uninformed, it's fucking pathetic

    On top of that, Firefox (I think) is causing X to lock up constantly. Time to move distros again, I suppose...
