Red, could you please make that image a more manageable size, (640 x 480 or so) so people dont have to side scroll to read the posts?

Looks nice, dont it? Was a pain to remove the background, and its not perfect, but it does look pretty good. Dont ya think? That CTF flag was kinda fun to do though.

Banner? What did you have in mind?

Dont really have a cutoff date, but, I need to know who is going to show before the LAN, so I can make sure I have enough tables, chairs etc. So dont wait till days before to let me know, as you might end up having to play sitting on the floor if you do... :P Sorry, its my 1st time hosting. I helped Silver last year, but he had a lot of help from LilJ. I'm doing this one by myself. Dont make it too hard on me, please....

I'm used to that framecap, playing on my Mac. (62.5 to be exact.) But knowing RB, he will have prob uncapped his boxes that he is gonna have available.

Its now July, the LAN is at the end of the month. If you have not registered, there will not be room for you. Really! I have to rent the tables and chairs, and I am not spending the money to rent extra's, just in case. Bettina, would love to see you attend, then you can really put the faces to the names. :) Going to be a great time, I hope to see many of you there.
