Don't take my name seriously

I mean it. I'm not that kind of an addict. What I mean is, I don't like drugs. It's just certain types of video games and anime. --Addict 2006 23:02, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Or in this case, video games and japanese cartoons. --Addict 2006 04:11, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Umm, nothing to do here

I really don't think there's anything to do around these parts lately. I mean, I could just wake up early and make a stub for that upcoming SBEmail on that day, or make drafts on the Weeklies... I don't know. --Addict 2006 06:28, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, The Brothers Chaps are coming off of a monthlong vacation, so there has been a lot less going on here. There should be quite a bit to do on Monday after the new email is released. Trey56 07:52, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Strong Bad Email

While I may have been too late for the new article's beginnings or something, I did get the new scroll button song onto the menu's subtitle script!!!! :) Now all I wanna ask is for someone to translate this, and for me to enjoy the new... hotness, for lack of a better word. --Totally not getting old, Addict 2006 13:34, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, I finished the subtitle script. Though I'm no part of the Subtitle project. --Addict 2006 15:08, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Hey, the subtitles look good — well done. Trey56 15:22, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Now that I've also done what I could on the looking old script, I want someone to translate that or at least make a mirror of the "scrolling up high and down low" song so that the previous script can be copied from the history and put there. Because I overwrote the whole thing when i found out about the new scroll button song. --Going a bit crazy, Addict 2006 16:23, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Subtitles

Hey there, non-addicted Addict. Good jorb on those subtitles! Weclome to the sub-club ;-) Loafing 03:47, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Aftermath (see right): I'm fine now. Just leave everything as it is and I'll be fine. --Addict 2006 04:25, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Excellent—I'm glad you're feeling better. Why not listen to some soothing ocean noises as a reward? Trey56 04:29, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

This is weird.

Why aren't the weekly stuff updated yet? --Addict 2006 13:34, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Homestar Runner Desktop Buddy

Hey, Addict 2006. I had a look at the link you showed me to the free Homestar Runner "Desktop Buddy". I didn't have a chance to try it out since I don't have a Windows machine, but do you think that it should go on Website Sightings? Sorry for the late reply, Trey56 14:44, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

It's on a whole bunch of sites providing freeware stuff. I'm telling you that it's out of proportion and all. And I do NOT want anyone else to know unless they peek at any of our talk pages. Okay??? --Trying to be assertive but ends up aggressive somehow, Addict 2006 16:47, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

See blog excerpt below.

This does not act good for Homestar fans

You know this thing called the Homestar Desktop Buddy? Don't bother downloading it. It doesn't animate, the proportions are off, and it isn't interactive in any way whatsoever.

--Almost signed my first name, Addict 2006 16:49, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

And if I have to provide pictures, I might. Although it will cost as one of the personal images attributed to me. So I'm reluctant. -- Impatient for the weekly stuff to arrive, Addict 2006 16:51, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

It doesn't count as a personal image if you upload it to an external website (say Photobucket or ImageShack) then embed it in the page. --ENUSY 17:05, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Like what User:The Paper did? The IMG Src thing? --Addict 2006 17:13, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Exactly. Simply enter the URL of the image without anything around it, and the software will do the IMG SRC thing automatically. --ENUSY 17:18, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

and what IS wrong with the free program???

Back to the original topic. I don't know if I want to add an image right now so I'll try to describe what I do remember.

Okay, so I remember there being The Cheat, Coach Z, Marzipan, Homestar Runner, and Strong Bad (in no particular order). Unfortunately, The Cheat is too big compared to the others, Marzipan's face features are too big, and Strong Bad is mis-proportioned. And yeah, the only thing you can do with it is open the program and exit out of the program. It doesn't do anything. --Addict 2006 18:17, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

So, they just sit in the background of your desktop? Trey56 18:20, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Yyyyyyyeah. All it does is loop through badly mis-proportioned pictures of a few characters. That's it. :( --Addict 2006 18:22, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Also, here's the description: "This cool Homestar Runner Buddy comes from the popular cartoon. These toons display on the desktop while you do other things on your computer. This desktop buddy will show the fun cartoons from the Homestar Runner website.

Homestar Runner
Strong Bad
The Cheat
Coach Z
Marzipan"

I was right on the character listings. SO, about the description, no they're just characters from the cartoon series, not any toons themselves. I say that the description is poorly written, as in "little questions". And once again, they're badly mis-proportioned. --Wonders if that's enough for your opinion to be cracked, Addict 2006 18:25, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
