Re: Adverts that irritate and entertain

I've just seen the new thetrainline.com ad with the panicking passengers - far better than Black Lace. Shame that they don't mention their £3.50 credit card booking fee, or their flat rate £1 booking fee either. Neither of which you pay with TOCs' own websites. Nor with Red Spotted Hanky, who offer...

I wouldn't have known about gaffer tape with nuclear grade cloth without that wonderful discussion about tape in the Sky News: Presentation thread.

It's still a majority "No". Anyway, I think the logo should be changed to this tomorrow, in memory of Thomas Dekker.
Changed to...er...what?
This, of course.

Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake

Dragging this back up somewhat. Amazon are apparently going into a partnership with Collect+ (I believe they already utilised them for returns) meaning you should be able to get things delivered to your nearest Spar / PayPoint supporting corner shop and therefore be able to pick them up until latei...

Re: Metropol logo

How about making a theme based on Microsoft's Metro UI? Geddit? Ah, but it's no longer going to be called that. Ooops. All the more reason for us to use it! If a new logo were to be made, it would have to be based on another shit logo. http://up.metropol247.co.uk/bilky%20asko/metropolll.png

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

I hate it. I hate it more than Facebook's many revisions. I bloody hate it. It's unintuitive, it's poorly delineated, it's still not wide enough, the preview of the latest post is stupid, I can't tell which threads have new posts, the pagination buttons are too big, and it's too plain. I'll probably...
