Please tell me that's not the only place you know him from...

All depends. LBP has infinite potential, even more so now that the second has rolled in. Create mode requires patience to enjoy. To make a halfway decent level, you also need a LOT of creativity, intelligence, and perhaps a senior creator to give you a hand early on.

Story mode is hilarious, as well as extremely fun.

Online, sticking to the Mm Picks levels will usually yield good results.

Lolno. He does virtually everything related to entertainment, and I believe is a part of Monty Python's Flying Circus?

[Declan_23]

Yeah, he's a bit of a legend here in England.

[Frenchfry]

That's probably because he's a god hiding in the skin of a chubby man.

I posted this on IRC, so... here it is again!

Couldn't be any closer to perfection.

Unless it was a mask.

I might be able to turn the trollface into a mask, given some string.

Idol makes me sad.  It's everything that's wrong with music today.

As do most radio stations, as they advertise talentless garbage who can't even comprehend what a musical scale is, or how to sing without an equalizer. The enitrety (is that a word? oh well) of mainstream music cannot even begin to match up to what they are supposed to be. They sell out before they are even known, manufactured by record companies because they believe that these "artists"-if I can even call them that- are what people want and they can harvest the most money out of.

I agree with everything you just said. I just think that guy is a good singer, when you compare him to most of the crappy singers out there. Most of my favorite bands are older ones, because not all singers were as bad. The singers in ACDC were pretty bad at singing. Their guitarist was awesome though. For some reason, ACDC's singers don't sound as bad as they are. I don't really know why. I just can't imagine the band with a good singer. Their songs wouldn't be as good if they had a good singer.

Being a good singer doesn't mean your good at music.  You can be a great singer and know absolutely nothing about music,  you just sing.  You don't have to know keys, the circle of fifths and just plain basic music theory to sing well.  It's just a natural talent, and the market is flooded with people with this talent who couldn't write music if their lives depended on it.  Then there are the people who can't do either (most pop stars)  Their voices are faked, using modern day tech you can make anyone sound good.  It's actually pretty easy.  If you want to hear good music listen to this song.  It's Streetlight Manifesto, The second link is the Gorilla Biscuits, who are more of an acquired taste (theyz punk).

Hey you guys know a way to make your signature blend in? Like if you want to make it look like it is popping out. But matching the forum color so it looks like that. Every post is either Black or Blue. I can't make my sig both.

Its called an alpha layer; having transparency in your pictures. If oyu want, I can do it for you, but you'll have to give the the individual pictures you want.

[Frenchfry]

In Paint.net, I make a seperate layer for the background, then lasso select the edge and surrounding area. Then I use the unfocus blur tool to blur the background into the transparent layer beneath it. The result is like so:
