Ah now Seathrún, your contribution to the Machine Nation goes without saying.

My erstwhile incarceration has galvanised my support amongst the gaeltacht. Many flock to my militia and cheer as I am released.

Bí curamach... chuala mé ar RnaG go bhfuil tóir ag teacht ar cheol Sheáin Uí Riada arís le déanaí sna háiteanna sin agus beidh máirseálacha ar súil leis na ndaoine áitiúla agus iad ag déanamh ceiliúradh mar gheall air... ní bheinn cinnte gur tusa an riadach go bhfuil siad ag caint faoi chun an fhírinne a rá leat....

A fhad is a cheapann an chomhaireacht gurb ea, nach cuma liom :-)

Those emoticons in it are going be well dequalitised by the time all those download->change->saving->jpeg 's are done when people add their name.. i suspect something like this..



No one will want to have that postered up on their wall like... would you be able to work your magic should that ever become the case... ? ??????????

má tá cuma ort rud ar nós seo nuair atá tú ag féachaint ar do ríomhaire, seans go mbeidh tú ceart go leor....

Shite, will that really happen
What if you save it as .png ?

Yours looks perfect I don't know why you're crying. Ná bí ag caoineadh. We'll see what happens when Kate uploads hers.

Don't you dare try to force PNG on me you facsist!

Als die Nazis die Kommunisten holten... agus a leithéid...

na we should be ok... Pedants might notice a slight diminishing of quality of the skin texture on the emoticons between yours and mine... it's something I can live with, I suppose, just barely though......

Ná bac leis a bhuachaill, is feidir liom é a reachtifyáil.

See ? Ta sé ceart go leor. Is ceart go leor sé. Tá sé adjective, Is noun é.

They're building up ! Three names now - save the image, paint your name on it then upload it ! Weyhey !

Maith an fear. An bhfuil sé ag dul nios ...

That's very nice, Seathrún.

Has everyone gone home????

Happy 100 days, everyone on Machine Nation and special thanks to Auditor #9 and of course EvotingMachine0179 and to all the posters who have posted and started threads and got us thinking. Auditor and Ard Taoiseach said it all so well.

Cheers and here's to the next 100 days.

btw - how do I upload a jpg?

Is this to sign the banner?

right click on the most recent picture, save as...

open paint, click open, and open the jpeg, sign your name (with a steadier hand than I have. save as...

post reply, click host an image, browse and double click the jpeg whose details will end up in the box. click 'host it' and you'll get three different versions. copy and paste the last one in the reply box between [img][/img] and press send.

The site is 6 months old yesterday

I thought it'd be best to keep it 'til today because all eyes were on the 9/11 memorial ceremony. (John McCain said later on CNN last night that he would have or would still (?) expand the army and hunt down Osama at all costs ...)

Here are some recent good visitor stats which show well over 300 people on most days and regular days of 100 returnees which is apparently very good after 6 months.

Well done everyone !!

to you all

Cool.

The Pew Research Centre has analysed how we get our news now and they have broken down the user categories into four types of news consumer:

I'd like to see the trends for those four categories. From the age profile, I'd say that The Future is Ours.
