Whose SHOUTING?

Rant Board? Really? Cool? Good idea.
Red X's.
Where?

Seriously. According to Mo there is a server problem and
apparently it is being worked on.
Hang in there.

Welcome, Grendel!!! ;D

Bolo nailed it this time, but red X's in lieu of pictures sometimes also indicates a faulty, or BLOCKED, "hotlink;" it depends on both the picture in question (copyright enforcement), and the host's policy regarding free unlimited access to material - which is again dependent upon copyright enforcement, in any given circumstance. Then too, some Proboards communities won't allow ANY hotlinks whatsoever - I've frequented many different ones during my time as a web rat, and each board seem to go on a case-by-case basis.

That said, let me steal Uncle Vinny's thunder by making the lame knee-jerk "joke" concerning your board name - "Okay Grendel, where's Hansel?" ;D

(and what Vinny doesn't know is that Hansel's really shacked up with Beowulf!!! ;D )

Sorry about the red x's and I'll get right on it. No really, It's what's important in the next few days. Don't know what happened to what ever was serving the pics but I'll get in touch with the owner.
Happy New Year, ranters!

I can't stand it when I have epileptic seizures because of someone's avatar.

When the site is fixed it should be covered in these:



Creepy pic huh? Don't ask me where I got it, I could be arrested.

Talking about avatars, Groucho, my cat looks just like yours, naturally:



Also a creepy pic huh?
