Ok Billy,

I know you must be really sick of people bugging you all the time about your themes. But as the dog days of August draw to a close, I have to ask where your new themes are?

Your son should be old enough to take care of himself by now so you can no longer use him as an excuse and please don't try the "I'm busy with work" excuse.

So, where are they?

Michael: Hasn't everything been sort of discovered now by like Magellan and Cortez?

Buster: Oh, yeah yeah, those guys did a pretty good job.

lol I though I was a BBX theme fan. I'm just as excited about a new them form BBX, I hope his next one is out before Panther's out so we have time to enjoy it before it has to be ported. I'll port it my self before there's an official port even. This was a kinda rude way to show your excitement for a new BBX theme though...

lol I guess this topic is proof that we need a new awesome original theme soon. There hasn't been much other than theme updates by Max and Swiz in the last few months.

Since when did people start checking their sense of irony at the door to this forum? Is this a colon cancer survivors forum? I could see limiting the use of irony there.


I would guess William is probably hard at work solving design related problems for everyones favorite Redmond, Wa. software provider (and making money hand over fist in the process) and managing to squeeze in time for the wife and kid.

I meant in no way to offend William Bart.

Hey! WTF? Why can't I add an image any more? Now I'm just a blustering windbag!

honz - Don't make me ask catsank to get on your ass since I can't embed the images myself.....

Hopefully he will meet me at dawn by the Thames River with pistols drawn!

Heck, he's probably doing what I should be doing - spending time with his wife and son.

Wait, I don't mean I should be spending time with his wife and son... I mean my wife and son!

Hey George, I really like your logo/branding work - really mean and very sexy work.
- Can't draw to save your life but the artificial 'puter artwork you're doing is damn hot :)

I'd also like to see what he would say in replay to this.

catsank is it necessary to post random images in GUI related topics?

some people just don't get it catsank...that every picture you post has a meaning...sometimes very obvious [my cloudy mind thanx you] as per the topic of this thread [i'm calling you out]...and sometimes even a little too deep for the sharpies to figure out...

let this thread die anyways...

catsank, your image was perfectly on point and even far superior to my "draw" image.

Now as to your assertion that I can't draw, Dear catsank you are a poor judge of talent. My "Sketch" section may have thrown you off. The are sketches, not finished drawings. All of the digital illustrations you see started out the good old fashioned pencil and paper way.


Forgot to put this one up on my site! Enjoy!

Hmmm... as you can see, I haven't been around much. Baby is the least of my timekillers these days... M$ is killing me with exciting work (may be part of a plot to keep me from beautifying the Mac, who knows), as are a couple of massive summer rush projects I couldn't refuse. As is the case with most people, this 'for fun' stuff by necessity has to take a backseat to my commercial endeavours, so I haven't even had a chance to touch anything OSXGUI related in many weeks. All I can say is - eventually. Obviously post-Panther at this stage. Sorry man, but that's just the way it goes

Thanks for the reply Mr. Bart. I think you may be on to something with the Microsoft distraction plot! Spend more time with your son. My son just turned five today and I can't imagine how that went by so fast.

My level? I am afraid it's too high for you to reach.

Would you like a booster chair? Maybe a phone book?

If your good, I could talk to waitress into giving you a sucker.

Speaking of new levels Zimphire.... I missed it if there was an explanation somewhere. What's with the new sig? It's like you went from holier-than-thou to freakier-than-thou overnight. Did you have your first hit off a doobie or something? Did you finally get laid? What's the whole story?

It's a subliminal experiment. It's almost over.

But it will be time to move on to part II

Demonhood knows all about my intentions.

But if he talks. I will have to kill him.

Wow! True to form! I guess this as good as you can do.

Very disappointing Zim. Very disappointing.

Back in the old days, you came on with such thought and passion and here you are coming up with responses my five year old would think are childish.

Want us to give you a little more time to think of something better?

Wow you basically took what I said to you earlier and try to add onto it to make it look original.

I know you can think of something original...

Zimphire. You win. You are smarter, better looking, better smelling and far closer to being Jesus' right hand man than anyone else on the whole planet and definitely anyone here at MacNN. When you wake up the next morning, look into your beautiful face and just be happy with your supreme knowledge that you are all these things and more! Zimphire you simply rule!

On the themes topic: Hows Sosumi coming?

Unfortunately, this thread has turned into yet another Zimphire tiny penis compensational tirade. Sorry about this everyone.

I've wasted enough time with this one. No fun in beating up on the mentally deficient.

Naw, I am this just turned into a make fun of gdiddy thread.

And now you can't take the heat.

So, what have you brought to this forum other than verbal masturbation?



Obviously it made some sort of impact on you. You are acting out with that sig.

I know you did it thinking it would make me look bad, but it just tells me I must have gotten to you.

You are about as easy to read as a newspaper headline sonny.
