Greetings fellow boarders and those who may have wandered in mistaking this to be a message board about comics...
In the months that I have been a regular contributer to the reasoned and intelligent debate on this board, I have come to know you all as my friends, nay, my family (i.e. those thrice removed cousins who have no claim on my stuff post mortem)
It has been a long time since I first bothered Wake with my incessant demands for an icon and then my constant c*ck-ups while trying to activate it. A lot has happened on the board since then. A war. A new relationship. A lot of hot air. During these long months I have come to know you. To enjoy your company. To - fearfully - trust you.
And I would like to tell you - my friends - that I have become bored of my icon! (waits for audience hubbub dies down) And I now, quiet please, I now wish to enlist your help in deciding which image shall replace it!
I would ask you all to post images you think would be suitable for me to use as my icon from this moment hench.
Nominations for this compeition will close at 00:01 on the morning of Monday, July 28, 2003. You then have exactly a week to vote for your favourites from a list chosen by the expert panel of judges (as opposed to judges of expert panels, which is part of the Justice Department fraud unit)
The winning icon will then be processed and used.
From those who voted for the winning icon, a champion will be randomly selected and awarded with a special prize.
I thank you for your time and let the games commence!

PS Don't forget to post the images so I can use them!
PPS And remember - your vote counts!
