Actually, I prefer licking off whipped cream to chocolate... unless it's chocolate whipped cream, of course.

I'm assuming there's a cherry on top. Can't have whipped cream without the cherry.

Oi, somebody stole my cherry.

Quick, call the cops.

Officer to starkers: "Where were you when your cherry was stolen?"

starkers to officer: "Well, it was like this. Me and the missus was havin' ice cream in bed when in from the open window comes this really weird lookin' dude with a redneck. He swooped down and swiped the cherry right out of me missus' mouth just as she was about to turn to me and let me have it."

Officer to starkers: "Can you describe your cherry?"

starkers missus to officer: "Pervert!!!"

Now where did you hear that?  We tried ever so hard to keep that embarrassing episode a secret.

Oh well, I suppose my cherry is gone forever.

Not to worry. Marashino or Marachino, I forget which, has cornered the market on cherries in a jar. right off the grocer's shelf. Run on down to the local trading post and pick up a dozen or so. this way when you get the hankerin' for a cherry...... just un-screw it. (The jar) 

Or there again, I could grow a cherry tree.

It'd have to be a very quick developer, though.

You know, cherries to pick in about 12 months.

Miracle grow ver. 69. Guaranteed to put cherries within easy pickins ...... and reach.

In that case, I'll take two packets... roll on cherry pickin' season.

I  sent the package via your e-mail. Hope I did it right. Its the wall I told you about.

When is cherry pickin season?

Whenever you see a ripe cherry ready for picking... and the owner says you're allowed into the orchard.

Yeah, I copy and pasted the link but Imageshack says there's no such thing... "the item you were searching for does not exist in the database."

Oh well, you could just zip it and send as an email attachment... that's what I usually do with small files.

I'll need your e-mail then. It isn't listed here. I didn't see a way to attach a zip. Let me go look. Be right back.

I re-sent it with a direct link.Hopefully it will work this time. Fingers, toes and everything else crossed. Oh ... and check out my gallery. A wall I submitted made it only that far. Its a text effect.

I just sent you an email so that you'll have it for future reference.

Nope, it still won't reveal itself.

I gave that sucker a good typing to. No worries. Its comin' at ya dude. Thanks  for e-mail. Profiles don't have a way to attach stuff. Did you check out the text effect wall?

Yeah, that's some pretty snazzy stuff, maybe you could update it with some of today's newer effects to take it past where you left off... okay, so all the old png's a lost/gone, but you got the nucleus of something totally bitchin' there, man.

As for the chicky babe, I seem to recall seeing that wall somewhere before, or something mighty similar at least.   Nice.

The text effect wall I did in CS5 trial version a few days ago. The one in the folder I sent you, is that the one you're referring too? If I can redo that it would be great. Otherwise I'll see if maybe I can bribe, cajole or something, to get RnD to do it or just put to graphics. Anyway...Cabbage Pestilence didn't make it. I just got the upload notification. 2 for 6 I think. But...I'll just keep at it. I got to hit it sometime. Well...I'm off to go grab smx.

Yeah, that's the one.  I thought it looks pretty snazzy, and could probably be lent to quite a few applications... such as DX and various media players, etc.

Yeah, if you put it to RND I'm sure he could think of some practical uses that it could be applied to.

It wouldn't hurt to ask.... maybe to work in collaboration is a step to consider?

My idea was to have it work like a DX or SMX. There are controls for Windows Media Player and another, Xion or what is the name of that other one? I can never remember it. Oh well ... the four clear glass knobs at either end are TCP indicators, on or off. The round circle at the top is for a clock with four buttons, two to either side for changing time zones, 12/24 hour, etc. It's been awhile and I'm fishing through my brain for what else I put on it. Um ... RAM stats such as how much is used, how much is available in percentages. Also controls for calling up different applications or folders, the whole nine. I saved it in Photoshop 7 as a .psd and started separating the various elements. Copy then paste into a new layer. So far there are about 9 layers and that's just for the clock, buttons and the four ornaments that surround the clock. I estimate somewhere between twenty and thirty layers or perhaps even more. A collaborative effort may not be a bad idea. I'm gonna have to PM RnD. Who knows, maybe this three year old will get all growed up yet. 

Yeah, it would lend itself perfectly to those applications, and perhaps to Rainmeter/Rainlendar as well.  In fact, it may even lend itself to Winstep Xtreme as well.  Not necessarily in its entirety, but sort of cut up to apply to the desktop modules, Workshelf, Nexus and Nextstart.  Webgimos would be the bloke to ask about that idea, being he does Winstep themes as well as docks these days.

Yup, send those guys a PM as see what gives with regard to a collab...

I'll do it. Just one question. What happens if it turns out like another suggestion I had. That would be a real bummer. I've already started modifying it so it will be easier to see where its going. Oh, and the suggestion, not a word in some time about Curried Cabbage WB.

You can only ask, and if they say yes it's all good, and if they say no it's still all good.  You just keep going with it until you're happy with the finished article.

No, but I think Po` works away from home a lot... not to mention various health issues he had to address.  I think he said something about finishing several WB's he started when he got promoted just recently.

I was just curious about the WB. I sent a PM to RnD, got his e-mail and sent the image off. He just got back to me asking about the original format so I told him what happened to the files. He said to me it looks like an SMX or a Media player. I told him it can do both. 

Yeah, it'd do both alright, and maybe DX wigdets or gadgets as well.  It has potential in all those areas, so the sky is the limit, as they say.

Anyway, all the best with it and hopefully I'll see it up on the front page of the galleries sometime soon.

I'll do my best and it'll do one of three things ... nothing at all, blow up my machine when I put it up or, send the servers into meltdown and Jafo will shoot me dead.
