Bruno Posted May 19, 2003 Share Posted May 19, 2003 Since you´ve converted yourself to a full blown Linux adept, it might be time to register yourself and your box at the Linux Counter and become an officially registered Linux User: The Linux CounterAccording to their website there are about 18.000.000 ( eighteen million ! ) Linux users on this planet. Only 134177 of them are registered. So lets push up those numbers ! ( I´m counting on you ) BrunoPS: Getting registered does NOT provide any extra benefits, but it´s fun !

Bruno Posted May 19, 2003 Author Share Posted May 19, 2003 There is a VERY good point Zox, you take the words out of my nozzle !Plus we don´t want to provoke the windows-guys too much by having a penguin in our avatar AND sig.Thanks Zox !

Guest LilBambi Posted May 19, 2003 Share Posted May 19, 2003 Yes, very good point zox.Scot did address this in #10 of the Forum Rules as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Posted May 19, 2003 Author Share Posted May 19, 2003 They won´t know what hit them at the counter ! The statistics are skyrocketing just on one blue monday ! :DLet´s see in a few days what the new numbers are. :) Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LilBambi Posted May 19, 2003 Share Posted May 19, 2003 That's great Bruno! B)I had to go searching for my printout to get my number! LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GolfProRM Posted May 19, 2003 Share Posted May 19, 2003 Yes, very good point zox.Scot did address this in #10 of the Forum Rules as well.You are correct Bambi... the rules state that sig pics are allowed, but must be less than 300x100 pixels and less than 20k... Had to crop it a bit to make it fit, but mine is perfectly legal Will probably shrink it down when I get off work (and can use photoshop instead of MS Picture Editor) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LilBambi Posted May 19, 2003 Share Posted May 19, 2003 Hi Ryan,Yes, you are absolutely right, yours is fine; it fits within the total size (4k) and the dimensions as well. You always keep yours within specs. No worries.zox does make a good point though. One we all need to keep in mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GolfProRM Posted May 19, 2003 Share Posted May 19, 2003 I do agree to a point, which is why I will be shrinking mine down a bit more tonight... I don't want to cause "hardship" for dial-up users, but I do like "pretty pictures" (even if it is a penguin ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LilBambi Posted May 19, 2003 Share Posted May 19, 2003 Ryan --LOL! I hear ya! And the Linux Counter is pretty darn cool. I signed up quite a while ago as you can tell by my number I love pretty pictures too .. but as one of many dialup users, I applaud your sensitivity to the load factor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volunteer Posted May 19, 2003 Share Posted May 19, 2003 They won´t know what hit them at the counter ! The statistics are skyrocketing just on one blue monday ! We'll just call it the "Bruno" effect ! Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruno Posted May 19, 2003 Author Share Posted May 19, 2003 Looks very nice beeTee, did you make that yourself ? Or is it a well known German artist, looks like Bauhaus too me. As for the counter, I see the numbers flying up, there must be people registering from another forum too . . . at this rate their servers will crash soon ! :DB) Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
