A Canadian in Ireland

Doesn't have the ring of "An American in Paris" (or even "An American at Opera") but what can you do?

Hi Everyone

,



Thanks to Karen I have a shiny, new, ANIMATED :yes: avatar :hat:

Isn't she great? :love:

Unfortunately, if I try to upload it anywhere else - and I've tried an album, My Opera's files, and Flickr - the animations breaks :bomb:

I'll leave a comment below so you can actually get a look at it :rolleyes:

And if you haven't seen WALL·E yet, what are you waiting for?

Ireland - the 5?st state?Well I'll be danged.

That image at the bottom of the post is supposed to be animated too. For some reason Opera converts GIFs to PNGs when you upload them to an album.

I am delighted to see him move!! :yes:

very much deserved :smile:

Mick-E 9. November 2008, 23:18

Glad you all like it. :smile: I must let Karen know.

Karen 10. November 2008, 01:58

Awww! Thank you so much for the spotlight, my dear friend. :love:

I'm so happy that you enjoy it. It looks so adorable and perfect for you! If you need anything in the future, DO NOT hesitate to ask!

That goes for everyone, BTW! :love:

:heart:

BTW - My.Opera doesn't support animated gifs anymore in albums. If you want to upload an animated gif, you will need to do it elsewhere. They made the change a few months back. I'm not certain why - you'd have to ask them.

I'm assuming it's because animated gifs take up more space or something. :shrug: They are space whores. :left:

:heart:

Hi Karen,

You're a hit! :up: :D

:sst: Re. Space on My Opera:

Stay tuned :left: :right:

Karen 10. November 2008, 12:41

hi Mick! :D

I'll remained tuned in. :yes:

WALLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE....

EVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.....:love:

wait, is it EVE or EVA?

ALLY G. 11. November 2008, 14:46

An animated Wall-E?
:whistle: stupidly I have deaktivated the picture-animations in my browser, because I don't like animated gifs.

Mick-E 11. November 2008, 21:13

Good question pfelelep. I looked it up - officially it's EVE (Extra-terrestrial Vegetation Evaluator), Eva is just Wall-E's pronunciation. I like his version better though, it's cute.

:star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star:

Oh, that's ok Elke. I know that they can get annoying sometimes.

Pfelelep 11. November 2008, 21:28

thanks for the info. Yes, Wall-E is cute.

Some friends of mine noticed how this movie reverses the "cliché: of man and woman personality, as EVE is the strong and idependant woman, which the poor WALL-E male character tries to get attention. :sherlock:

Mick-E 11. November 2008, 21:59

Yeah, eventually he won her over - giving hope to all us nice guys. :D

Pfelelep 11. November 2008, 22:15

nahhhh, it's only in movies.

IRL, those girls go get packed with bodybuilded-high-payed ass**les with a sport car. :irked:

Mick-E 11. November 2008, 22:37

:no: Don't shatter my illusions! :lol:

Pfelelep 12. November 2008, 00:11

I'm a dream-smasher. :knight:

how about a Guinness?

Mick-E 21. November 2008, 16:31

WALL-E will be out on DVD November 24.

Homer: Doh! Well, the 24th is the date the TV ads here give. :rolleyes:
