Geeks.... you got to love them... Posted by mist3rjon3s on Feb 13, 2005 02:02am ...but you can't.     The "Poverty" ribbon that this steals from was about actually changing society for the better, and solidarity with poor people.     You fools are dissing people for not having the "geek chic" browser of the month.     Does anyone else think this might be a tad bit irrational, immature, self-absorbed.... oh wait, I'm posting this on linkfilter. Never mind.

RE: Geeks.... you got to love them... Posted by aktaeon on Feb 13, 2005 11:34am You should mention this to author. It'd be easy to scale that image and the map up or down a notch and leave room for the other ribbon.     I mean this is just what we need. Bumperstickers for our banner-ad supported internet. Somebody notify Gene Ray.

'We fools' wibbled... Posted by mmChronic on Feb 13, 2005 01:28pm The author knows. :)     My graphic wasn't intended to sit in the same place and obscure the charity ribbon. I don't think the ribbons are even the same size - I certainly didn't just take their ribbon and recolour it or their imagemap.     All the ribbons I've seen to date are placed in the upper right hand corner so I placed mine on the left. The z index of my ribbon would also make it display underneath the charity ribbon if there were any clash.     But all that is moot now - I've rewritten it totally as a generator which allows you to specify which corner you want it to appear in and various other tweaks like allowing you to choose an official Firefox banner - which admittedly is less flamebaity than the original tongue in cheek banner I used. IE still sucks though and if I'm a fool for pointing that out then so be it. ;)     Re the bumper stickers. A lot of sites have these banners anyway - at least this way it's only IE users having to download the image so it's a reduction in bumper stickers. Sort of. ;)
