That's a lovely compliment, Paolo, thank you! I enjoy designing the banners and graphics for us, it's a creative project that allows me to do as I please without having to worry about the approval of a client. Not that I've exactly been known for bending to a client's wishes! But you guys are fun and easy to work for, only very rarely does anyone ask for a revision and when they have asked it's always pushed me to create something stronger. (coughAnderscough)

hey Mac, still hoping to find a few minutes to assemble some favorite model banners. Some that I like best we see fairly often, like Gary the Parrot's, she's a peach. It might be fun to skew toward only those that rarely if ever see the light of the forum, if the forum can be said to be possessed of anything like light. I can think of a few off the top that have never been installed or seen since I previewed them in an initial post.

Meanwhile, the model on my current banner, Emily Didonato, has my two-cents worth of a vote for Most Beautiful Organism on the Planet. So much so that I couldn't bear to adulterate her with a tattoo...much as I would welcome the chance to adulterate her senseless. Hence the faux embroidered patch on her leather and the absence of other squadly or wigly intrusions. She's just too fenomenally phabulous to be phooled with. Much as I would welcome the chance to phool with her.

Do you ever write or say something brilliant, then suddenly sit back and realize, "Nobody will ever realize how funny what I just wrote is", but you write it anyway, just in case there's somehow one special person who's gonna see it and it's gonna make their day? I can't be the only one, right?

Like earlier, my brother was talking in a monotone."I. Am. A. Robot" (you know, that thing that kids do), so.I absentmindedly said, "As Shakespeare one said, 'an exhaggerated monotone does not a robot make'". He turns to me and asks, "When did he say that?"
Then, I look him dead in the eye, and reply, with zero hesitation: "In Hamdroid."

My brother has no idea who Shakespeare is. He looked at me and went back to playing "robot", and I was left alone, wishing people could realize what a genius I like to think I am.
You're getting predictable, guys. You can do better, right?

Was in a series of games with Cricket, Dannydrooler, Suxxor, Goddo, and myself. When entering a zeppelin game I got this sweet snapshot:

I would've like to be in the picture, but for obvious reasons, I was unable to manage that.

Upon achieving victory (seriously, who's gonna beat THAT team?) I was preparing to take another screenshot, when out of the blue, this happened!



Congratulations to another MOMRAF (Mean Old Man of the Royal Air Force)! Wiggy, ya got another one to make!

Congrats to DannyDrooler (what a name) on achieving the lofty rank of MORAF. Good job brother.
I am about half a million points behind you.

Mac I hope you around when I hit the big one to capture the screen shot. Good timing and quick thinking.

Lastnight I was in a round with +1
Well it made me think of a Hawiian band. I thought the bands name was "Plus One". However the band's name is "Plus Three"
I said I would post some of thier music for him.








(Never calmed to be any good at math, but geshhh can't even get "Plus Three" right......)

Okay, this right here is a MORAFing I've been looking forward to since we launched the RMS MOMetania back in 1906...

Daniel, congratulations, mean old pal! Have a piping hot double Hannah Ferguson, my treat...


Mouthwatering, huh?

Your M.O.M is proud of you, D, well done! (Get it?)

Oh, and Gary, when you're playing "Where's Waldo's Tattoo?" you won't see it in the one image of Ms. F., she's turned the other way. But she is sporting a smart M.O.M embossed bikini bottom thingy.

It's meticulous attention to detail. That, or I need to either halve or double my Mescaline intake.

Dr. Drooler, in case you've already grabbed the banner I posted, chuck it and grab again. The file I posted was screwy, the one I just replaced it with is the one to use.

Also, if you can create yourself a photobucket account for bannering that'd be brill. Let us know if you need the scoop on how it's done.

I'm looking at Dan's banner again and rereading the comments I was too immersed to realize I was making in deadly earnest...the bikini is embossed with a barely visible M.O.M logo...the burger is a twin patty M.O.M logo with cheese...she has no visible tattoo because in the other image her tattoo is on the opposite hip...

I'm doubling down on the Mescaline.

Mac, I'm a devoted Shakespearean, he and Philip K. Dick are the definitive dead science fiction authors. With Shakespeare it's tough to choose from 38 of the finest sci-fi stage plays ever penned, but I guess my favorites are:

The MECHant of Venice

Two Gentlemen of Verobot

Titus Androidicus

SIMbeline

Henry v.1.3

ROMeo and Juliet


Tell your brother he's missing some of the theater's most kickass CGI.

Zecke is indeed a very nice guy, Joh, and an exceptional player who should've made Level 31 ages ago. Let's definitely try to connect with him, he deserves maximum M.O.M presence when he levels up. And please do invite him to jump over to Bride of M.O.M, he's a perfect fit and hasn't chosen a new tag yet.

No need to venture out to some local clip joint, the party is right here under yo' feet at the MOModrome, open 'round the clock, all ages served, no cover charge (or any kinda charge) with your M.O.Mrade I.D., every night is Ladies Night - in fact every morning and afternoon is Ladies Night - and No Trolls Allowed.
