Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I think it would be fun. But keep in mind that I'm an insane fascist with a soccer fixation and a taste for ancient TV shows and improvisational comedy.

Saw a comercial yesterday that would be perfect for you, John Tesh (the ET guy) is selling three volumes of "inspirational" music, all kinds of dopey religious songs that he performs.

This feature would be discriminating against people with no avatars.

I need to grit my teeth and watch more religious programming. They never advertise fun things like this on Cartoon Network.

<----- Mozilla disquised as Napoleon Bonaparte.

I go to some a bit more radical extense than 25 characters, and suggest 50-70. Why? That wouldn't be too long (IMHO), but you could still describe the avatar in a nice way. The option to have a description should only be able to those with custom avatar. It would be then easy to ad a field next to the circle you should tick if you want to use a cutom avatar.

The title command works in both Mozilla and IE. Do not use alt, use the proper command if both will work on the biggest browsers. There is still a chance that the newest version of AOL will feature the Gecko engine and not IE. When/if that happens, sites that have not adhered to standards are going to have some trouble. Plus, Markos, you just switched to Mozilla, make sure your new feautures work for you.

I saw it on the "E" channel, and I was only watching that to look at Brooke Burke's giant cans.

Let's hope for that. At least this feature wouldn't be bad at all if used with proper manner.
