Why do still people on "professional" websites use pop-up ads? I don''t see pop-ups anymore, but this flash site I frequent has them now. Unfortunately my firebird had not seen a flash popup before so I had to tell it to not open flash pop-ups. Pro-tip: Don''t use pop-ups. They are the most retarded and obnoxious way to advertise used by those fake porn sites that have no porn what-so-ever. I''m not even going into how retarded it is to try to pay your bandwith bills with pop-up ads. At least get banners.. they are less obnoxious. Also who is stupid to pay you money for pop-ups that no-one even looks? Seriously. Pop-ups are not professional.

I''m pretty sure he''s saying that because your name is a reference to, well...

You know, based on the name, I would almost have thought this was crap posting account.

Yeah, and I agree... I do not know what anybody uses popups, or popunders for that matter, anymore.

Er... I will probably be banned for this, but remove ''captian'' from the name, prefix it with ''www.'' and suffix it with ''.cx'' put it into the address bar and hit enter.

Well, the staff have been cutting down on this sort of silliness lately, and the g-man is quite banned. A member even got banned for posting a three character ascii version of it.

Ah well, will work on a sprite recolour of G-man, that you might enjoy

Now that this is about my user name 100% I must say that it is a miss-spell of Captain. See I used to have the name Captain Goatse, but then got banned for being retarded. Then someone removed my IP ban(after email) and I finally got to re-register. I think I was the first goatse ban or something.

For future reference, the G-man now has his own sprite

Those are supposed to be hands, like cartoon gloves, right? Why didn''t you recolor the red to skintone and the yellow to red?

Because I do not know the rgb() or hex value for skin tone.

You can find things like that out by opening up Paint, Colors, Edit Colors, Define Custom Colors. 255, 219, 190 looks like a realistic skin tone.
