forgive me Dalto. It was not my intention to cause offence or in anyway imply that stephen hawkings condition is a laughing matter, as it certainly is not. in fact it never even occured to me, i was merely associating our great club with a personal hero and inspiration of mine not to mention a famous and towering figure in his own field, also his inclusion facilitates the inclusion of the equation, his condition never even entered my thinking.
sorry mate, i really wasnt trying to make light of motor neuron disease, god no. never even occured to me. and never would.

I didn't mean to suggest you were being offensive. Hawking is a national treasure. It was just a bit close to the knuckle for me personally. I love black comedy as much as anyone but I'm still not over it after 5 years, it's a terrible terrible way to go.

But no, you didn't offend me, its hard to do that by accident and you seem like a good bloke.

Good to know. but still, intentional or not if it struck a nerve then any cvilised man would feel compelled to express regret. apologies for putting my foot in it there.

No worries. You do seem to be an artistic person, I think you should try a serious one.

That's a cracker!

I was going to put a star over the badge on my banner, but completely forgot. I was also going to do something very similar, with the river in the background, ships and Vikings etc, but I may have to think a little differently now.

This is the best one so far, imo.

I wouldnt know where to begin really. i dont have any appropriate software. anyone know of any open source downloads i could use to create one? i have a few hours to kill.
i could code one from scratch, but it would take me weeks.
