You guys have proven once again how sick you are.....now maybe this will have to go to the political forum so we can be sure that god, mohammed, budda, JC, and the others get equal time.

Very creative.....I hope it is not a bloody day.

Thank you for getting rid of the flames. The dripping blood is much easier on my eyes.

Zeroing in on 6-6-06
Is today's date just a number? Many believe not. Then again, the talk could be hype whipped up for a new movie.

By KATHERINE NGUYEN
The Orange County Register

Even among the biblically ignorant, the number 666 can evoke an ominous prickle of fear.

The cursed digits are notorious as the mark of the beast or Antichrist in the Book of Revelation, which some interpret as signifying the beginning of the end of the world:

"He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666."



So you can bet that somewhere today, on 06/06/06, superstition or religion is leaving some with the heebie-jeebies and others talking of the apocalypse.

And expectant moms? At least some are asking themselves: "Do I really want to have my water break right now?"

In London, The Sun newspaper reported that a pregnant woman was angling to have her labor induced out of fear of giving birth to the devil.


That kind of reaction is precisely what savvy marketers are banking on, what with the convenient launch of Twentieth Century Fox's remake of "The Omen" and Ann Coulter's book "Godless: The Church of Liberalism," both out today.

Another book making a timely debut is "The Rapture," the next installment in the best-selling Christian book series "Left Behind," which is a collection of novels about the apocalypse.

Not to be left out, BetUS.com, an online gaming site, posted 10-1 odds that the apocalypse would occur today.

Not that the masses are actually buying into the 666 phenomenon, right?

"It's just crafty advertising," said biblical scholar Mark Hitchcock, who's authored 14 nonfiction books relating to end-times Bible prophecy. "The date today has no real significance. The 666 reference has to do with the name of the future Antichrist, not the date."

Some, like Murray Quirk of Dana Point, pointed out that D-Day also shares the date. And since everyone else seems to be trying to capitalize on today's date, why not do something, too?

"I was thinking maybe everyone could wear their crosses out today, of all days. As a sign of solidarity among Christians and their faith," said Quirk, 55. "Kinda like wearing green on St. Patty's Day."

As long as I maintain the forums style settings I really only need to build the theme and it applies to most of the buttons...

When I change themes like this is also lets me see things that I did not use the forum styles correctly in as I noticed after making this live that the new resorts database as some style issues:

http://www.timeshareforums.com/resor...e.php?resort=1

As the site gets closer to being done it is easier for me to do things like this and those that have had a birthday over the last few weeks to month or so have seen the same thing happen to their display for just their birthday...

Expect more surprises in the future as long as I can find the time...

For those that may have looked before, you will notice that the resorts database style issues have now been fixed as well.... Sometimes we need a change to let us see what we are doing wrong

I received a couple of complaint emails. Not that they did not like it but they found the board hard to read. If you can not live with it for 24 hours then you can change it. On the bottom left of the forums page you will see the word blood in the drop down menu. You can change it yourself to another theme for the day.

[Guest Close Quarterbore]

Well, they can try but I couldn't change it here on Windows XP...

I switched to the blood as the flames were really hard to read...

Oh, I liked the spooky "Welcome" I heard when I got back on this afternoon! Thanks.....

[Guest Close Quarterbore]

This just doesn't have the same effect... should I put the blood back up?

Note - I may keep this as an optional dark theme for the future like it is now (no blood or flames)

The gore works

I like the dripping blood motif. Lord only knows the flames were real tough on the eyes this morning especially since I hadn't have my first cup of coffee yet.
