Looking good Steve! Can't wait to see the badges!
BTW....quid says Melly has a question about the penguins or the desktop.
(BTW you should see 250 of the bastards, double sized, but it tends to annoy the computer a little)

Cheek! I'm going to save myelf the humiliation, thanks! ![]()
LOL....still just the way I saw you before, a perfectly pleasant young lady :) (you were of course wondering if beer goggles would make me declare you the most shaggable thing since the first minge was patented, or a foul bogmonster I'd be unlikely to do with a stolen cock and a ford mondeo as a condom ) you'll never know cos I aint at the stage where even I know yet....and ai certainly wont be when we meet up :D bad luck.
It's funny and all...but it doesn;t hold logical water...if I WERE to find her just too shaggable to cope with...she WOULD know about it.....I'd pounce on her. :D

to the penguins!
I actually looked at the desktop before I looked at the image - I'm a geek! It's sort of a penguin run Lemmings kind of thing going on there.
So what is going on there, and I want it for Ginger.
Many thanks and claps for a job well done. :)
Well the skateboarding balloon floating etc penguins are of course Tuxedo T Penguin. It's "xpenguins" and the xmas snow (which you really need to see animated) is "xsnow". the both have lists of options that say less about he functioning of the programs than the programmer's sick minds.
get's even dafter if you run a program on the root window as well :)
a small example of xsnow's insanities
-display display_name Drop the snowflakes on the given display. Make sure the display is nearby, so you can hear them enjoy...
-snowflakes num\_snowflakes
This is the number of snowflakes. Default is 100, max is 1000.
-sc snowflake\_color
Use the given string as the color for the flakes instead of the
default "snow".
-bg background\_color
Use the given string as the color for the background. Note that
the usual default desktop pattern consisting of 50% white 50%
black doesn't particularly look good with Xsnow.
-solidbg
When using solid colored backgrounds specifying this option MAY
greatly improve performance. (Not on SUN Solaris 2.5.1 for
example!)
-tc tree\_color
Use the given string as the color for the trees.
-slc sleigh\_color
This option is obsolete in version 1.41. Used to be the color
for the sleigh. Santa has decided not to have you interfere
with the color of his means of transportation any more.
-santa santa\_size
There are 3 sizes of Santa: 0, 1 and 2. Default is 2. Thanks to
Thomas Linder for the (big) Santa!
-santaspeed santa\_speed
The speed Santa should not exceed if he doesn't want to get
fined. The default speed for Santa size 0 is 1, for Santa 1
it's 2 and for Big Santa it's 4.
-santaupdatefactor factor
This is to slow down Santa with respect to the snow. Default
the value is 3, meaning that Santa is moved only every third
time the snow flakes move. Specifying zero here is considered
very naughty.
-delay delay
This is the number of milliseconds delay after updating every-
thing. Default is 50 milliseconds, i.e. 20 updates per second
max.
-unsmooth
If you specify this option the snowflakes will 'whirl' more
dramatically, resulting in a somewhat jerkier movement.
-whirl This sets the whirl factor, i.e. the maximum adjustment of the
horizontal speed. The default value is 4.
-nowind Default it gets windy now and then. If you prefer it quiet
specify -nowind.
Should I be worried that the animations are entertaining me at this time of night without aid of hallucinagenics nor stimulants?
no, I piss myself at them day in and out. xsnow comes out only at xmas, but the penguins get fired up now and then to show off, and the machine usually gets a reboot before I'd ever think of doing killall -9 xpenguins
I reccommend LARGE penguins, about 100 of them, and the kill or splt or whatever mode where you can squish em with yer mouse.
actually I was just looking there, and they've added lemmings themes and simpsons and worms ones :) (and you can have a desk full of Bill Gates if you wish to squish the cunt)
Wish I could remember the hack I seen to throw xscreensaver onto the root window and disable it's mouse/kb listen function...essentially you get a screensaver (or 100's if you like) as your wallpaper....MOST cool.
Incidentally, how many Angels are there? Is the only requirement that you are a chick? Or do you have to be a hot chick? Or do you have to lust after Bernard? Or do you have to be a tit? Or do you have to have tits? Or do you have to be of a certain age?
Well, come on? How the hell do you know how many badges to get?
Anyway, i suggest an initiation ceremony on NOOLer day. I'll get thinking of some suitable ahem... duties... for the Angels to perform to gain their badge (not me of course).
Be afraid girls, be very afraid.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha twitch twitch ha ha ha ha ha ha ha twitch ha ha ha ha ha
I believe the original requirement was to have voted "unprintable" for what they'd do to barney.
The thus far confirmed members, are as it happens, all extremely hot, this is in no way a requirement however. But even a reall ugly chick who's into NO is still desirable.
The men of NOOL will learn that a girl with a pink badge, is a top date (keep your thoughts clean lads, as long as u aint Barney you're not getting jumped).
Like the sound of an initiation...but you have to take part too Jemma. I don't I'm a guy and I'm sortin the badges.
Getting "enough" made. And there will be an official signup thread when the time comes....what an awesome way to get chick's addresses :D
Merry Chrimbo Angels
You scary rabid bunch of savages.Run Barney... Flee for your life,I'll hold them off at the gate:knight:..Leg it!![]()
Hmmm with an ulterior motive methinks! Barney he's after your angels. I can see it now...

Or what about Cambo's Crumpet?

What about... Missy's Meat Jemma's Jerks Hicks's Himbos
I think you'll all do well under Steve's Stewardship...Unless you are "not that loyal anyway"
...in which case![]()
Seems a bit of a strange thing to make a judgment on, and I dunno how spotty will feel, but I'll get me camera.

We're loyal! Considering Steve has gone to all that trouble designing the badges. He is the founder, and defo our leader. He has the yae and nae say on who becomes a member.

or Turncoat Tart? Not hard is it,unless your Italian...They ALWAYS turncoat,those cowards..
The Italians are not turncoats (even if their tanks did have 1 forward and 7 reverse gears), and the Frogs aint surrender monkeys either....both countries would just rather be eating, fucking and racing fast cars :)
