queer and loathing

Ok, I rewrote this entry so it’s a little less convoluted.

I just got a G1 a few days ago and wanted to make a wallpaper for it. If you have a G1 as well, you’ll know there are several screen breaks: three when viewed horizontal and three more when viewed vertical. I tried downloading a couple templates from various blogs and forums, but none were very thorough, so I made my own.

It’s a tradition of sorts that I make a wallpaper for my phones featuring Keith Olbermann, so I named it after him cause I’m a big gay dork like that. :)

The template has two color coded Layer Sets: Each set of layers has three sub-layers that highlight the screen breaks and viewable area that occur on either of home screen’s orientations.

I also included a layer of bars that align with the bottom row of icons for each orientation. I got the idea from another wallpaper I downloaded, I don’t remember which but I tweaked it a little since it wasn’t quite right when viewed horizontally.

The part at the bottom with my website link on it is never visible on the phone, so you can replace it with your credit there if you use it.

Some screenshots:
(They all have a white background so it’s a little hard to see what’s going on. It’ll make sense when you open it in photoshop.)

And the link to the template:

I had heard John Walker Lindh, AKA the “American Taliban”, had been a frequent poster to USENET newsgroups, but I recently found out that you can Google Search doodoo@hooked.net, an email address he used, and read a brief segment of his transformation from white rapper wannabe to white muslim extremist. Watch him try to sell off his comic books and video games to buy audio equipment, critique 13 year old rappers and place ‘wanted to buy’ ads for Malcolm X speeches.

Look for the posts marked as being written “by doodoo@hooked.net”

This guy has archived them in chronological order.

I don’t know what a TalkBox is, or how it works, but I know what it sounds like and I want one. If it has pieces that fit inside your mouth, I don’t care. I can find a way of cleaning it. I want a TalkBox. Sell me one. Thank you.

The girls of “Big Naturals” will be missing the hits generated from Senator Orrin Hatch’s “Explore Utah” page on his Official Site.

It appears he wised up and removed the “myUtahsearch.com“* button, you can still see it in Google’s Cache* though. Ha.

The Right Wing News article’s title also mentions something about Hatch’s site using Pirated Software, but I didn’t see any information about this in the article text.
