Haha, no sticky monitors... got it. lol
Okay, so here's the deal with the random images... and that website.
New member sign-up is currently disabled on that website, but I did a quick google and I found a script for the random images. It's really cool, because it only uses the one image tag, but instead of putting the typical image file (like .jpg, .gif, .png, etc. you use a .php script that pulls an image randomly and displays it. Here's the downside: you need web space that supports PHP. Since you're talking about using it as a sig, you'd also need a LOT of bandwidth since every person who sees the image will be using the bandwidth from the script and the image.... and not just every person, but every time a person sees it. So, say for instance I see your sig ten times and ananda sees it five times. Total, your script is being pulled 15 times, and so is one of the images.
I hope that's understandable. If you've got questions I can try to answer them.. And if anything is in some foreign language, tell me and I'll try to explain it differently.

rofl I'unno... I stay away from religion discussions 90% of the time because my beliefs get me a lot of grief from a lot of people, and most of the time I just don't want to put up with it.

4laugh I feel like super nerd today!!
Working with all these scripts and codes and I haven't run into any major troubles yet. Nothing has taken more than a quick glance to fix. And the random image thing... and I was just talking with somebody about image maps (which I may try to get into later on).
rofl Anyways, if you wanted to do a random image sig, I can look for a free webhost that has PHP and unlimited (or at least a whole lot of) bandwidth and do the script and either tell you how to do it from there (it's really easy) or I can even do it for you if you want.

Sryne rofl I'unno...

The other things up to you. Photobucket gives 1GB bandwidth, not sure how much I used, but it hasnt been 1% yet....

Photobucket doesn't do .php files though. I'll look around and let you know what I come up with (which could be nothing, I don't know yet).
As for being buddhist, it's no better being atheist.

As for being buddhist, it's no better being atheist. people at least know what an aethiest is and understand it a little. The only thing people (christians mainly, but the majority are) know about Buddhism is that "Its not really a religion"

Sadly, the dumbest question I ever was asked was "Oh your Buddhist? Have you reached enlightenment yet?" I was just like "If I had, would I be standing here talking to you about it?"

You'd be surprised the problems saying you're atheist can cause. I've had numerous people tell me I'm going to hell because I'm atheist. That always makes me laugh (despite how old it gets) because as an atheist I don't believe in the existance of hell. My favorite though is people calling me a satan-worshiper. Again, in order to worship the b*****d I'd first have to believe in him.
People are so stupid sometimes (or should I say most times?).

That one question jus always sticks out in my mind. EDIT:Megs mom actually told me I was going to hell for being a Buddhist when I first met her, not 30min into our first conversation...

eek Wow, hehe. Meg must be one special lady if you're still around after that.
I got lucky, my girl's family isn't very religious at all.
