[edit] header & transparency

I noticed your header picture's background is slightly off. I was going to make it transparent for you, but I wasn't sure you were an IE sympathizer or not. — a thing 06:55, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

Have at it. I am an avid Firefox and Linux fan, so don't worry about that. I had made the user page banner transparent originally, but then edited it again, and I must have done something wrong in The GIMP. I've just never bothered fixing it. Thanks for the offer, LINUXERIST@ 13:26, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
Strange, everywhere but your user page it shows up with a transparent background. — a thing 06:48, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
Where is my user page banner transparent then? LINUXERIST@ 12:41, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Categorize Tagging

Hello. First I would like to apoligize if I offended you by tagging your article with the categorize template. However it is a cornerstone of new page patrolling and can be very helpful. It is common for authors to simply forget to add a category and tagging it will remind. In addition if the author never returns to the page it will put it into the category so others can find it and add categories later. At any rate if I caused you any grief I am sorry. Good day, SorryGuy 06:49, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

Okay, I see your point. — a thing 06:50, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template:Title

Hello. Since you used Template:Title on your user page, I've fixed it for you so that it now points to User:SushiGeek/Title, which is now where the template resides. This is per discussion on templates for deletion. SushiGeek 15:35, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edits to The Colbert Report

Stating that it's "always been [Colbert's] position" that Oregon is "Idaho's Portugal" is blatant "because Stephen told me to" vandalism and will not be tolerated. Further such vandalism will warrant a block without further warning. JDoorjam Talk 01:45, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

There's a reason it was in quotes. — a thing 01:49, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
