No transparent PNG uh? Would be best for my image manipulations
SP Studio doesn't make transparent PNGs as far as I know.[1]

And you could have done it BEFORE I made the new logo for the FB group
What do you think inspired me to do it, haha!

BTW, the mustache doesn't look like a mustache at first sight... Since there's no mouth, it actually looks like you're brooding. And the mustache is your mouth!
I did play around with having a mouth on there, but the previous image didn't have a mouth IIRC, and the 'tache is still big enough you can't really see my mouth under it!
 1. In fact, I just checked and it doesn't even support PNG, it outputs to JPG. http://sp-studio.de/ is the one I use.

I used this one as well, but I chose a more 'invisible' color as the background, allowing me to hide it more easily :P
Look at the version below... As you can see, the blue IS visible on you.
(I took the liberty to add a proper mouth... ::))

Obviously you're not the one who always has the Credits page open as an incentive to work on making all Wedge pages as good loking as that one :P

Yeah but it had a beard so you could see what was what.

I did wonder, but I just used the same colour I did last time, didn't realise it was a problem...

I don't have the Credits page open much at all, in fact...

True enough.

I got rid of the beard, what more do you want? :P

With me it's all or nothing! :P

We are the tache boys. Tache in French is both "stain" and "task". You're the task. Then who am I? Shave already ;)

Would it help if I called it a mustache (naming it in full)?

If it weren't for my mum, I wouldn't be shaving so often. Wears out the razors :lol:

I only shave when I need to go and meet a customer face to face.

In fact you can say how long I have been hiding in my room doing all the work via internet without going out to meet a customer by the length of my beard.  :eheh:

No... Only when in conjunction with 'Boys' :P

Anyway, I still have these blue pixels and I'm not moving on them :whistle:

Okay the pic is online... (Has been for over an hour actually.)

Oddly, it's more centered on you than me now :P
Also, I moved your Wedge logo down by a few pixels.

I have another physical reason to give but I suspect you'd kill me before I finish my sentence :niark:

(Oh, and I just didn't correctly center the pic in the original ;))

Try me, I'm a big boy, I can handle some less than pleasant comments :P I just reserve the right to repay bad comments in kind is all... ;) (Though my weight is actually down, back to where it was before I had two weeks of flying up and down the country and eating out because that's what we tend to do when we're all together)

Hippies? Don't think so. Look at the way I was in 1982:



Just a little hippie, but not too much.  :niark:

Btw, I have changed a lot since then. My hair has the same length, but is more white now.  :eheh:

I had a small Casio computer back in 82 with just 64Kb of Ram (no hard drive) working only in basic. Had to load DOS every time I turned it on using a tape recorder (no floppys) and could run only a program at a time.  :lol:

In fact the processors inside any of the synthesisers I have now are a lot more powerful than the one that small thing had.  :eheh:
