How about letting us specify our own styles to override some of those used by CodeProject (such as toning down the colours, etc), like so:
<link rel="stylesheet" type=text/css href="/styles/global.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="file://c:/codeproject.css" type="text/css" media="all">>
I am aware that not everyone will have a C drive, but it would be very useful here at work to have CodeProject appear to the untrained eye as if it was part of a certain company's intranet...

Nice idea. Then I can finally have CP be a different color than that blaring orange.
On a side note, I can understand why <link> tags aren't supported (because someone could use them to import javascript modules), but why aren't blocks supported? I'm wanting to do this sig:
<div style="position: absolute; border: #FFDD99 8px ridge; width:380px; height: 100px;">
<div style="position:absolute; height:100%; top %;width:20%; background-position:center; background-image: url(http://tinyurl.com/lfm9/l.jpg);"></div>
<div style="text-align:center; background-image:url(http://tinyurl.com/lfm9/s.jpg); position:absolute; left:20%; top %; height:50%; width:80%; background-color:#88EEFF; vertical-align: middle;"><small>"It is appallingly obvious that our technology exceeds our humanity." - <b>Albert Einstein</b></small></div>
<div style="vertical-align: bottom; text-align:center; background-color #88EE88; background-image:url(http://tinyurl.com/lfm9/f.jpg); position:absolute; left:20%; top:50%; height:50%; width:80%; font-family: Comic Sans MS; font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://www.fluiduitoolkit.com/"><font size="2"><b>FLUID UI Toolkit</b></font><br/><small>A GUI Library for .NET and Win32</small></a></div>
</div>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
...but there are too many style attributes. *
*<small>OK, OK, I admit it's a little extravagant, but I like it! </small>
<div style="PADDING-RIGHT: 80px; PADDING-BOTTOM:20px; PADDING-LEFT:80px; PADDING-TOP:10px; FILTER: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(style=3,opacity=100,finishOpacity=5,startX=280,finishX=310,startY=400,finishY=500); BACKGROUND-COLOR: #CC99FF; position: absolute" ><font size="-30%"><br><i>"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God."</i> - <b>Jesus</b><br>

And your suggestion as to what CodeProject can do about this is...?

Show some faith in your own mascot - Bob's bound to have his alien buddies on the case, and they'll replace Mr Bush with an alien-built android any day now. That's presumably what Mr Anonymous was going to suggest .

How about a mix of both our ideas - we'll put Bob inside an android Bush, and he can take over the world muhahahahahaha.

Unfortunatley you can't be elected president here if you weren't born in the US.
However, I read in a tabloid one day that Bob was technically born in the US while his parents were stopped to refill their spaceship at a BP in St. Louis.
If your nose runs and your feet smell, then you're built upside down.

I notice that the auto-formatting for lang="cs" code in new articles doesn't handle the \" escape character in mid-string.
Thus if you have code like
---
sb.Append("\"");
sb.Append(MyProperty);
sb.Append("\"");
---
it thinks you've opened a second string on the first line and not closed it until the last. In fact I only have two literal strings here and both are a double-quote.

Try here. Not terribly high-res, but better than the li'l guy up top. And the shape is simple enough to enlarge quite a bit without problems, so long as you use a fill tool to straighten up the edges a bit afterwards.

Agreed, I could do with one for the giant 6' cut-out for my room desktop wallpaper.

Send me an 8" image and I'll make my own stickers
Seriaouly, some larger bob pics would be very useful. I'm pretty crap at graphic design, so making my own is out of the question. pweeeeeze :cute-puppy-eyes:

Stickers would be cool. Something of a cult seems to be starting where SA's put the SA flag on their car boots and we all hoot and wave to each other on the motorways, much to the distress of the bewildered Englishmen around us
Even better though - Bob stickers turning up every now and then as we tour the countryside

I did, it was coming along well, up until I formatted my drive, and lost my work, and the software I used to create it, and I never got round to making it again.

Ok, this is a total 5min hack, but it's a start. If Chris doesn't come through, this might at least work as a template... :
