I hope you all enjoy my avatar pic.
Done especially for this messageboard when I should be working, because I was bored, and because I love you all so much.

PS Yes I know it's a hamster, not a gerbil, but you should get the general idea of rodentness.
PPS Yes that is the one ring. And it's mine. All mine I say!

Very nice. Is that your Hamster?

Gerbil · 01-23-2002, 11:18 AM

Tis not my hamster.
Sadly my last hamster passed on over 3 years ago (during my final year at uni) and is now in Hamster heaven with her sister Shrew.

This particular hamster I just stole from the anthropics site. Which, if you like talking hamsters, you should visit. It needs a plugin from the site, but seeing a little hamster talking 'realistically' is just too cute not to do!

Look in the demo section - lots more, but for me the hamster wins

luinilwen · 01-24-2002, 12:35 AM

do you actually do work gerbil?

i wish i could make dirty jokes about this post but it's just not appropriate... *sigh*

emplynx · 01-24-2002, 08:45 AM

This is going to get moved.... But I like your pic!

The cheek!

Actually, I'm just about to start doing the main game for the Big Brother (Norway) site. Apparently their BB was much more interesting than the UK one - lots of top sex shenannigans. Oh, and their house is much nicer as well

I just happen to be permenantly online, thassall

Hamsters . . . they're cute little ESCAPE ARTISTS! But oh well, I really like the piccy. How do you put a picture by your name, anyway??

Gerbil · 01-24-2002, 06:04 PM

If you go to your control panel, in your details section down the bottom you can choose an image as your avatar.
You basically create it or rip it from somewhere, and as long as it's within the rules (errr no bigger than 50x50 pixels and not larger than 20k in filesize) then you can upload it and use it

***HOBBIT*** · 01-24-2002, 08:21 PM

nice...this is the wrong forum though..I'll move it.

luinilwen · 01-24-2002, 08:45 PM

our BB was so boring! everyone was just laid back and got along, but that's what a lot of aussies are like, i guess. can't you tell how boring we are? neighbours is the most boring soapie i've ever seen in my life!

Gerbil · 01-24-2002, 09:17 PM

Most were dull I think, from what I've gathered.
The american one was funny, but not intentionally.

They had a load of misfits in there. Unfortunately the only 2 characters of any interest (some militant black guy and errr.... can't remember) were voted off immediately and everyone else was so boring they were offered $50k to leave so someone interesting could take their place. Which they refused!

Best bit was watching black militant guy make air-headed dumb blonde cry - he sussed her out immediately and just ripped into her!

As for neighbours, yup sure it's dull, but since our soaps are all depressing as hell (I think nearly all of our ones featured a murder over the Xmas period), it can be a nice change.
And I've always fancied Libby. Although she doesn't half look stupid with the cushion stuck up her top.

Is that your Hamster? __________________ "We will have peace","Yes we will have peace...we will have peace when you and all your works have perished - and the works of your dark lord to whom you would deliver us. You are a liar,Saruman,and a corrupter of men's hearts. You hold out your hand to me and I percieve only a finger of the claw of Mordor. Cruel and cold! Even if your war on me was just - as it was not,for were you ten times as wise you would have no right to rule me and mine, for your own profit you desired-even so, what will you say of your Torches in westfold and the children that lie dead there? And they hewed Hama's body before the gates of Hornburg, after he was dead. When you hang from a gibbet at your window for the sport of your own crows, I will have peace with you and Orthanc. So much for the House of Eorl. A lesser son of greater Sires am I, but I do not need to lick your fingers. Turn elsewither for I fear your voice has lost it's charm.
