The new staffer at CP would like to say......
-
....to welcome you to the Lounge! It's good to finally see a voice(?) to go with the the name. :-D Don't be too intimidated by the Loungers, most of us are a friendly bunch, except for those flame-throwing, flesh-eating, dung-spitting saffas(Don't ask) As for the Icon, Bob in a straighjacket would be kinda cool. C'mon Chris, whaddya say?

....a big hello to everyone. As the new marketing hand at Code Project I figured it was time to stop being a voyeur and jump wholeheartedly into the lounge. This is only happening because I'm finally feeling settled in at the CP office. For the curious, here's a sampling of things I've had to try and get accustomed to over the past couple weeks: 1. Hearing a football being kicked inside the office, and not knowing whether to keep typing or place mug of coffee in a secure place 2. Feeling a compulsion, bordering on unease, when 12 hours pass without some quality time with the Xbox 3. Listening to Chris wax poetic over VB 4. Knowing what the clickety police are 5. Wondering if, for a non-programmer, understanding the concept of clickety-police is a little freaky 6. Deciding it is, but getting over it 7. Hearing way, way, WAY too much about Australia 8. Wondering if Dave's ability to whistle happily in the morning is a ruse, one intended to mask a deep dark hatred of the early hours 9. Deciding it isn't (weird stuff nonetheless) 10. Being rather confounded when presented with the question from a youngster "Why doesn't Bob have a mouth?" 11. Deciding Bob has probably seen far too much, and is lucky to be left in a non-communicative position 12. AND FINALLY The one I hope everyone here can help me out with.... Asking Chris patiently, quietly, and daily, to create an icon for me (and other CP staffers) to use in the lounge. My suggestion of a straitjacket hasn't gone down too well at all. Does anybody have any ideas as to what my icon should be? Any suggestions would be much appreciated. :) Sans sig for now...... Bianca Wylie CodeProject.com
Welcome, and nice to finally hear what is going on in the CP office. I see that you have been working in Stockholm, maybe you speak Swedish? As for the icon..straitjacket :~ :laugh: How about just a jacket icon. jhaga --------------------------------- Every generation laughs at the old fashions, but follows religiously the new.

Welcome Bianca. I am glad Chris has finally got some good help. Hope you have many good years with the CP team. As for an icon... maybe Bob with a wi_z_zards hat, though the straight jacket sounds more relevant. Oh, and anything you hear from an Aussie about us South Africans is patently untrue. We are great people, it's the Aussies you should watch out for. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Miszou wrote: I have read the entire internet. on how boring his day was.

Well since us Saffas are such vastly superior beings to our antipodean cousins we are often bad-mouthed by them. So I just like to set the score straight. One must forgive the Aussies, it is all they know how to do. *sends off another Help Save Australia cheque* :rolleyes: Just kidding. Actually there is fierce rivarly between Kiwis, Aussies and Saffas. We are all pretty much underdogs and hate the fact that we are all so similar, so any opportunity we get we use for a dig at them. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Miszou wrote: I have read the entire internet. on how boring his day was.

I mean, you all in straitjackets, and then suddenly Chris's icon makes sense - he's wearing one too, but has somehow gotten loose. ;)

I've already slapped you about a bit over the Xbox vs XBOX thing above so I'll spare you here ;) We normally just go for all out carnage with Slayer. Any map, any time, though no weapons or settings mods. Bianca in full fury with a machine gun is a scary sight. cheers, Chris Maunder
