Excellent idea, Rob. However I think your signed picture should be the one beautifully portrayed in Abstract Chat. Although, since it's almost Halloween, you could flash your willy and frighten any members of a 'leather shorts and moustache' persuasion

Chris - is your 'From the Grave' posting inside the featured thread some kind of infinite loop regression thing?

Just think of it as a little sensitively applied positive feedback (& feedforward)..........or maybe just the Hall of mirrors!

I must admit I laughed at this quote from Marco:
'I never really got the whole 'flat-earth' thing.'
Me neither!
Try this:
If your hi-fi doesn't carry a tune it's f*cking useless regardless what else it may do!
I have been on bigger forums but have made this one my home.
The total lack of humor in one much larger forum has really made me feel privlaged to be a member at Art of Sound.
The one thing that would be cool is to be able to see our membership number in the order we joined. Like member 97 ect...
As we expand and take over the internet makeing all other audio chat sights dissapear do to lack of intrest,due to our tolerant and fun loveing nature infecting the cyber world and one day bringing world peace.We can say "we where there". GOD SPEED ART OF SOUND!
