And all this time I thought they ran on smoke. At least, when the smoke escapes, the computer shuts down...

What?!?! There are people inside my computer?? [img]graemlins/jawdrop.gif[/img] I never knew!

I was a big proponent of the smoke theory too.

That's neat. I wish I could make it an operative desktop background...

You can. Just save the image (you have to right click on it and open the image on it's own first) and then apply is as you would a normal wallpaper. It was the first thing I done when I saw it.

that would be a pretty wicked desktop although i may get dizzy after awhile.

This reminds me of what me and a friend used to draw back in primary school. Instead of balls, we made men in little carts that raced through an ingenious course involving magnets, jumps, fires, springs, teleporters and so forth. Real fun!

It reminds me of the The Incredible Machine games. Though there aren't enough mice here.

I can't believe I just spend five minutes watching that.

Thanks for the link, Vulcan. [img]smile.gif[/img]

No wonder my computer sometimes gets slow when I've been gaming all day. Those poor guys must be exhausted in the end. I'd allmost stop gaming.....

No, I said allmost
