Avast and stuff

Well as many of you know today is Talk Like A Pirate Day.  In honor of this most auspicious day, I present to you the 'Avast, ye.' desktop:

Avast, ye.

I will be back later to talk about K2, Believe, Shuttle and anything else that catches my fancy, but for now get to practicing your pirate-ese people!

    No problem, I can understand wanting to see it... especially on a server that isn't crawling.

    Yes Joen, it could. When I release this plugin to the public, it will probably be that way.

    Phu, lol.

    I was pink for a while, due to the previous version of my site, so I asked to get something more manly :)

    Yeah I know khaled, I am still planning on getting to that for you. And there is nothing really to report on the baby front.

    Heather is still not dilated at all; we are just waiting for the show to start.

    Mike, yeah right, I hope Rikke holds the damn money in your relationship, because you're such a buyer! Marketing people think of you when they're divising their strategies :).

    I’m also wondering what the comment background colors symbolize … is it all random? Or is there a pattern?
    Chris has given certain people (i.e. his rivals) special colours so that he can quickly find them and beat them down:)
    I have way too many Buy Nothing Days' as it is

    I'd smile but it's all too true in my case...

    I love that. So he's manually added certain people's email addresses to a database (avid commentators no doubt), and visually distinguish these?

    It could be automatic, based on post count, couldn't it?

    Christopher,
    Good, let that be a lesson to you, now walk the plank!

    Joen,
    Good question, and for an answer I would say nothing. Applying the text filter to make everything pirate speak makes me giggle... not like a little girl mind you, but giggle none-the-less.

    But since I am want to jump on anything that seems fun, I will celebrate this 'Buy Nothin Day' of which you speak as well this year, look for a slightly trendy desktop in the near future.
