Thanks. The counterglow link is broken. "forums" should be "forum".

I tried to use paintshop to change the background from black to white. Could not figure out how to do it. Maybe it is not a background but a layer in the jpg. Gif's are easy to modify. I am finding out jpegs are something else.

I like the nasa|gov astrometry shots, but would like to change colors for effect. Black and dark blue both 1) make image bordered and 2) use up more bytes.

In those .jpgs the "black" is rarely black, but a wide range of nearly black colors. When you see a picture that has been matted against black, or that has been touched up with black, you can tell at a glance.

I've just reached 500 (in 6 weeks Im really on ACDG too much!) so if anyone has some avatars spare that look pretty sweet, I'd be interested

Is there a record for the fastest King or something?

Drogue,

I'll help you increase your count.

How do you put smiley icons/mini gifs in your messages?

[Drogue]

Other than the Smilies Page I have no idea. I don't want to increase my count unnaturally. I post enough as it is!!

My post rating thingy is

A: 22 | D: 99 | M: 89 | HP: 29

. What does that actually mean. I've seen the thread about it, but I like, what is a level etc.? Its all Greek to me!
