That's because it's babble.

That was kinda the point. Go bother Papa Dhalgren. He's mastering obvious statements today.

Let's see... Misspelling, check. Stretched out image, check. Same crappy font, check. We're sorry, but you are not a winner at this time.

Very funny. Let's see your next banner, missy.
And for the record, I'm not wholly against CS--when, perhaps, it's been stylized, or even brought up a point size or five--but I find no reason to accept it anymore when it's aliasing that badly. One might as well spell out "H-I-G-H S-T-R-E-E-T" with Lego (not that I have anything against Lego, either, just don't go there).

I figured that might be your answer. You really don't want new people around here, do you. I think I'm going to have to give up trying to force the concept down your throat. Why should I keep belaboring the issue if you figure HS can survive on the two dozen or so people who post to it with any regularity? Sure, we've got a few thousand lurkers, but forgive me if I don't think they're well served by obscure references.
I am so sick of trying hard to do things that nobody appreciates.

Those two dozen or so people are high-street, the same two dozen or so who drove cruel until the wheels fell off. Listen carefully and you'll hear they're more or less content and more than capable of pushing change when they're not. It's a giggle away from the real world, Pale.

Pale, honey, brew yourself a hot cup of tea, put on some candles, and curl up on the couch with a warm, fluffy blanket and some boo-hoo movies. Spend an afternoon sniffling, get it out of your system, then start the next day with a bracing shower and newfound callousness. Scream at the people who cut you off in traffic, snarl at your favorite barista, then come back here with some kick-azz links and a gleeful desire for mayhem.
Remember the wisdom of hollywood: if you build it, they will come. It's about the content, my friend. Find some. Post it. Lather, rinse, repeat.

You know, in many ways, witty exchanges like this are what bring me to High Street in the first place. You could argue MSG Tripps is as effective, if not more effective, than any number or banners, because you just couldn't find a guy like him on any other forum. He's special, like Animal the drummer in the Muppets was my favorite Muppet, you know?
And Pale, come on. We adore you. You're taking on way too much here. Let the kids have some fun, you throw in some good suggestions and some editing where you can, and step back when it gets to be too much. There's no crisis here that I'm aware of-right now, anyway-and for the time being, let it slide. If traffic becomes a problem, then we can figure out how to deal, but let's face it, who the fuck wants to get some of the shit on here? I certainly don't.
Think of MSG as the human sign spinner, standing in his black hood and baggy old man sweatpants with the weird food stains on them, scythe leaned up against the brick wall behind him, spinning that "HIGH STREET" arrow all fucking day and night. He's gold, man, pure gold. And so are all of us, in a way. Here at home. Here at HIGH STREET...

Do you know how nice it is to come home from a shitty job and read something like that, and have it mean more than all the feces Dhal or Bisquick attempt to fling in my direction? I don't ask for much, but a little appreciation now and then goes a long way. Not that they're really worthwhile opponents, but I suppose it does make sense that they should both dislike me. I can be happy about not being liked by two people few others can stand.
Those last two banners don't even exist on HS' servers. I've already dialed back my banner-making, and am now working "behind the scenes" with that header voting page (delete a few each day, and bring back a commensurate number of hidden banners, etc). If some of the "kids" wanna take a stroke at making some, I've been for that from the beginning. I never intended it to be a one-man show. I think I'll also go ahead and delete that Cafe Press thing, since I can't seem to make it work/display properly. The image I provided for that should be at a high enough resolution for people to use on their own if they want.

Neither do I. Boredom I presume. Never let it be said I'm not happy to see a little activity on this board, even if people can't pick their battles and it is at my expense. Let's not have it fuck up this thread too, tho, m'kaay?
Fled, those banners have the genuine look and feel of hand-tooled High Street, but ferthaluvapete, will you PLEASE get another font? I've already said I'd GIVE you some. Fo free an' stuff.
