It seems a few people are allergic to colour, in some way, on this board.. as I got a similar response when I changed my text colour ages ago :P Though, I soon stopped it, as it was too much hassle to remember to keep pressing the colour at the side before I made a post.


I /probably/ could have handled a darker colour. It's that bright nukey-green that nearly prompted a visit to the ophthalmologist. :P

I must protest at this clearly biased decision by a corrupt panel of judges, including... myself... ah.

How am I supposed to carry on the professional outrage if I'm the one to blame? It's all going so wrong...

edit: oh yeah, and well done. you actually deserve it this year, UNLIKE EVERY OTHER OCCASION WHEN THE JUDGES WERE BRIBED OR SWAYED BY THEIR OWN PERSONAL TASTES GC CLIQUE.

(There we go, I feel much better now.)

Sorry Bjorn. I was attempting to bring a touch of Natopia to this forum in celebration.

In Antica long ago, Steven tried to convince us that we needed to color sarcastic statements in green because he had such trouble telling the difference between sarcasm and sincerity. In response, we mocked him by coloring all of our statements green.

To the Natopian Emperor: I love your little slice of heaven and can appreciate the reasoning. I just have a hard time reading that bright green. Something slightly darker would have been easier on the eyes. :)

I LOL'ed at this, Chris. Thank you for a nice start to my day, and a tiny history lesson, as well. I hope that Antica has continued the tradition of finding ways to screw with Steven. 8)

They have been posted!

and to anyone confused by the UK postage system assuming you're posting something about 40-70grams in weight in an ordinary envelope size posting to:
The UK, costs £1.28
The EU, costs £1.21
the rest of the earth, costs £1.68


After the EU and UK costs, I am now confused by the UK postage system.
