It's one of the nicest ones honestly, but I also agree with zimp about the size.

Oh by the way, the nomination is over!..

I'll humor you.

Lose the "Getting ideas is like shaving: if you don't do it every day, you're a bum."

Else the sig is very good. Nice. Purple = good.
I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.

Eh, it's ok. I just bought a G4 so it reflects that sorta.

But nothing spectacular. I've done better.

I've always liked that purply pattern abstract stuff. Not sure what your sig represents, but you should make DTPs.

It's actually really simple... I am huge into plants and flowers. Just a picture of some flowers I took. Put into grayscale and then did an inverse... gives a cool effect with flowers.

I am stupid: what's DTP?!

I like mine better than most of the ones in the poll, but I guess it's too much of an inside joke to be memorable for others.

I tried to search to google for som info, but as far I could see it appears like there isn't any English edition of this comic so far. Kind of sad really as this comic is really one of the best in this decade on this side of the planet, especially if you are into the humor. Perhaps there will be English editions later down the road. I don't really have the vocabolary to explain it in English, but I found a translation of a couple of strips that gives a good picture of the humor in it. Spice that with a little touch of hip-hop, a laid back lazy but broke urban life style or something, and you get a picture.
