Didn't know if this should be put in the fanart or not, since it's technically not fanart but rather a reskin of a browser. Anyway... I created a 'persona' for Firefox ( addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/10900) based on the comic. Just a simple one, but I like it. If they approve it (since I'm not Tom so I technically don't have rights to the images, but I'm hoping, and I credited the artist), it'll be available for use soon through the persona gallery ( www.getpersonas.com/), but in the meantime, here's a preview, concrit is welcome, and if you come up with any ideas I like better than what I have, I'll redo, giving credit where credit is due. EDIT: Yeah, it'd help if I posted the link, no? Well, here she is:  |

It looks pretty awesome, I'll give it a try when it's available.
(There's a Hedgehog Launch 2? Neat.)

Hmm...looks neat, but I think it would help a lot if you faded out the background at the top a bit, so the text is more readable. (You can do that pretty easily in Photoshop/Gimp/whatever by fiddling with the brightness and contrast.) Something like this:  Works a bit better than making parts of the text yellow, anyway. |

jimbobbowilly: Thanks, I didn't spend too much time on it (probably why guyy's comment is a great idea, and thanks for the suggestion btw, guyy), but I like it. And yes, there is a Hedgehog Launch 2, on (that I know of) Kongregate and (probably) Armor Games. EDIT: Adjustments made, the font will be hard to read in a small screenshot, but it works (for me) as used as an actual applied 'persona' with display settings at 1024x768 or lower (ie: smaller screen area/bigger icons/text). Should work even better on larger monitors, but works fine on mine. If the persona isn't approved, I'll post the source images if anyone wants to use mine at that point, and it's easy to create your own for anyone who wants to try and do me one better. It'd even be pretty cool to see an official Gunnerfox persona, and that would be more likely to be approved, but Tom's gotta be a busy guy, so while I'm hopeful, I won't hold my breath. From here on, if anyone has the addon and knows how to use the create interface, I'd like to see others trying, if they so choose (post your results! I'd love to see someone make a persona that tops mine, Tom or otherwise!), and if they don't know how to use it, a)it's simple and b)if you still don't get it, ask. The addon itself is available at the first link in the first post in this thread, obviously. EDIT2: And again I forget to post the link...  |

Personally I think not calling this FireRey would be a wasted opportunity... ;D

Personally I think not calling this FireRey would be a wasted opportunity... ;D ...well f***. Next revision, if I or anyone else comes up with any other changes that'd be workable/worthwhile/cool/triple sweet. Hey, that gives me a super cool and also great idea! City Fox! |

So my Gunnerfox didn't get approved because I'm not Tom, apparently. Unfortunately, I left the images that make up the persona at my parents' house, so I can't post them. However, as I said, it's easy enough to make one of your own, if only you have the inclination and the personas addon. EDIT: I've managed to approximately re-create the images, here at home, so here they are, for the sake of anyone who wants to use my persona being able to do so:  Header  Footer |

I just hope you won't make a persona based on boxbot... that'll be... terrible... I couldn't resist the temptation, and made one. Alas, it was rejected due to my lack of 'expressed permission from the owner' or something like that. If it had been however, it would have had this as the header, white font so that you can see it quite well. i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa281/Jiminiminy/BoxbotAKAOHGODWHAT.png(I'd embed it, but I'm afraid it'd stretch the page rather significantly.) |

I like how you put a.k.a OHGODWHAT at the end. Not enough people are creative with naming their files.

The file name is actually part of a very elaborate idea I came up with a few years ago. I was wondering if there was any way to assign all the files on my computer a subject, for easier searching (There isn't). In a bout of frustration, I decided to give every file from that point on a suffix based on what the contents involve, so that I could just go to 'My Computer' and ctrl+F whatever it was, then the computer would find it.
Don't ask me why I didn't make folders, this was a more entertaining idea. For instance, -EXPLOSIONS on any file represents anything that I use for school, -HOLYEFF is things my friends have sent me, -dotpedophile is games I've downloaded. And, of course, -OHGODWHATHAVEIDONE, commonly shortened to -OHGODWHAT is things that are terrible.
It's really quite simple.
