...Sebastians rather superb new Avatar ! Tee hee. Well, it made me laugh anyway. :lol: Where do people find this stuff?

If you replace the computer in his Avatar with a sensitive part of my anatomy, you will get a glimpse into my world.....

I didn't undertstood what part of your anatony you mentioned, but I can take a lucky guess. Sebastan's avatar is great. It's just the initial frame of GIF animation (more info what what is a GIF animation here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animated_GIF).

The rest of the animation was showing that guy on the scetch to hit his hands on the keyboard and they started to bleed and he kept hitting them there until he had no hands, and then he starting hitting his head in the keyboard until, in the end, he had no head too. It made me really sad that I saw that But just the first frame is good.

BTW, Matrin, can I find somewhere your avatar in a larger scale image? It would be great for wallpaper.

A thousand thank yous Martin. Yes, at long last i've joined the throngs of the technically competent and decided to "email" (in case some of you are in the dark about this remarkable piece of human ingenuity, it allows one to send a letter digitally across what is known as the "internet" (i'm still trying to assemble in my mind, a cohesive picture of this amorphous electronic edifice, in which i'm told pornography is plentiful), this particular .gif file to our reverened Rev, so he can host it for me.

I feel somehow reconnected with the twenty first century after posting this avatar. I can now go up to kids on the street and throw such buzz words at them as "Ipod", "HTML", and "World Wide Web", without feeling like a total idiot. In fact, i had the opportunity to do this this morning, and it seemed to go quite well i think. Here is a verbatim account of what exactly transpired this morning on the crowded sunny streets of metropolitan Toronto:

Sebastian (seeing some children taking pictures with their phones...that's right! PICTURES with their PHONES! What will they think of next): Hello there, fellow Netizens!

Kid #1: Ummm...hi. (Looks askance to his friends)

Sebastian: Say there...have any of you little ragamuffins had a chance to "surf" the World Wide Web today?

Kid #1: (Backing slowly away with his other friends) Ummm...what are you talking about?

Sebastian: It's Ok. I'm hip with it. My friends call me TCP. You know, as in Transfer Control Protocol...TCP/IP...the underlying set of rules that govern our communications around the world through underground optic fibre cables using the most peuriley simple binary system of data transfer. What do they call you? What's your name, my little futuristic friend?

Kid #1: Umm...you're scaring me.

Sebastian: I've got a nickname for you...how about Ulf Randolph Linklater?

Kid #1: (Looks to his friend, who glances helplessly back at him) I...don't...understand.

Sebastian: Ulf Randolph Linklater! Get it? URL? Uniform Resource Locator! You see...You see how hip I am!

Kid #1: My father's a policeman, you know.

Anyway, it degenerated from there into a series of embarrassing smiles and awkward gestures...but i'm sure you get the point.

but I can take a lucky guess

If you take a guess and get it right, there won't be anything about it lucky for you !! :lol: I wouldn't wish that terror on anyone. Sebastian's avatar is the kind of thing that makes me wee wee my pants. I really don't know why. I like the bit right at the end when the character takes a big sigh. Tee hee. No idea about my avatar, it's one of the forums own.

Jesus - lock up your sons and daughters! Sebastian - that kind of filthy talk will get you banged up! As adults, we aren't allowed to be friendly to young people in case we are paedophiles. Please revert to scowling at them and muttering about 'having lived through the war for them' under your breath. A clip around their ears wouldn't go a miss either.
