Jeez ! How are we supposed to read anything over the busy background !

Are those places all like this ... ??

I only recently changed it to that. It's a watercolor Sisyphus painted on an old slat of wood, halfway between Salt Lake and Vegas, which slat of wood constituted a portion of an old creaky dock situated alongside a beautiful hot spring.

It's a fixed background, so scrolling should help the legibility. I can read it

The thing about myspace being "hard to read", I kinda like that? Cuz, only people who really, really care will go to the trouble? I used to have it nigh illegible, for that specific reason, actually. Like I DIDN'T WANT people reading my private stuff. heheh

[Kensterberg]

ThoRn's current page is actually one of the more legible MySpace pages I've seen.

And when he says it was almost illegible before, he means it, man! Seriously, I've looked at ThoRny's page a few times prior and reading it meant highlighting the text you wanted to read. Adam's got a bit of that problem right now (blue text on blue background = unreadable).

[Thorngrub]

Yeah, I've made sure to try & contrast the font colors w/the background, only I haven't modified the font colors to suit this new background, but that's cuz I checked and it's not TOO illegible. . .

... and like I mentioned before, if ya cain't read it & ya don't care too, then Fook Off! >;-[=

Theres nothing wrong with Myspace itself. It just happens to be full of poeple seeking validation. Wow, you have 800 friends? Mmm, you & everyone else.

But anyway, welcome. Who are you & what do you do? I don't even know if you're male or female. Please specify, cheers

Hello. So who am I? Wow, that's a tough one. All I can say is that I have 800 friends on MySpace, therefore I must be someone--
I'm from Chicago. I'm a male. Married with one kid. I'm really interested in hearing new music and talking about it with others.

Your spirituality must run real deep if you use the amount of myspace friends as a yardstick to verify your existence. Me, I'm oldskool I guess so I go roughly by the "Descartes Model", only I've modified it somewhat to "I think I am, Therefore I might be", works for me.


*sniffs* . . . . I smell a familiar scent in the air here....

Paulie only has 170 friends in myspace.

Speaking of which, here's one of his deep thoughts on James Brown:

I just read that. That has to be one of the dumbest things he's ever said... and that's saying plenty!!

[Thorngrub]

yah, kinda makes you feel sorry for him huh

[Ryosuke]

I read it too. Yikes.

But I'm not white, so I guess I can listen to funk music without worrying about what PEW will think of me.

Kinda funny that there arent any black people on this board, which makes it oh-so-convenient for you all to talk about how white man's guilt doesnt actually exist...

[rockysigman]

Actually there is. Only one who posts regularly, but still, you're wrong.

[Ryosuke]

Did you write that piece btw, loudaab? Or do you just strongly agree with PEW?

[kool]

He wrote it Ryo. He's made no attempt to hide the fact that he's PEW.

One of my first albums was Michael Jackson's Off The Wall. I was obsessed with him. I'll admit it (even though he sickens me today). I must've been around 9 at the time. Then came Prince and my obsession switched over to him. I guess that makes me a racist from the cradle.
