byebye
06.09.2006
I sent an email (by mistake, as I was going to do it on Friday) to the Spring designers with this image, well, it wasn't actually a file called "byebye" without extension. So they had to figure out that it was a GIF, then they had to learn a bit about the format and find the text inside it and ready it. It's a message for them. One of them saw the text but was because a Irfanview bug (?). I've amended the image so irfanview doesn't show it. By now, nobody was able to read the text, even the Dev guys :/



I guess some of the readers of this blog already know what it is, as it's an old pixelling scene trick :D

Is not that I don't care about what you have to say, of course I do, but they are speaking louder and I lost my patience :(
