Our Angst-Ridden Mascot

[nos4a2no9]

Well folks, the polls have closed and the Blood-Smeared Polar Bear narrowly edged out the Unnamed Box Turtle to win the dubious distinction of becoming our Angst team mascot. It was a very close race (8-7) and I wanted to thank you for voting and doing your bit for the democratic system

(redid this 'cause I accidentally spoilered when I posted yesterday. sigh. Harried fly-by posting from work can make for Ooopses.)

But... but Turtle! *clings to Turtle*

Oh, very well. I did watch IceBound Stream, and it's way good.

"Life is painful and then you get eaten by a polar bear." That could totally be our team motto. We could scrawl it in blood red nail polish on the backs of our black leather jackets.

Just so you know *glares accusingly,* this matchup thing is already starting to infiltrate my otherwise normalcough life.

Last night I read End of the Road by katallison, and The Art of Losing by china_shop. Aaiiiiii, the Owwwww! This morning woke up at 4:54 (yes that's friggin' a.m.) in full-on Must Comfort Ray!!!! mode, and what do I get from my clock radio at 6:00 (yes, still awake)? I get Bruce Springsteen at his mournful best, belting out, "Cover Me."

Oh. God. The Must Fix Ray's Life Angst!

And then! And then, I come into work and voiceless009 has posted her latest vid to ds_noticeboard, "Ring Around the Moon

I'm no graphics wiz, but I saw nobody'd posted a banner yet, so I put one together. Please, artistic types -- do not let this discourage you from making more!

Anyway, here they are (click for full-sized):

Sprat, this is SO awesome! The banner is perfect for the comm, and you did a great job on the choice of font and layout (it's an angsty layout!). Thank you sooooo much!

[sprat]

Oh, yay! I'm so glad you like 'em. If you do want to use the banner for the comm, feel free to hotlink. It's hosted on my server, which has plenty of spare bandwidth.

Also, um...do you know how I'd actually put the banner on the comm page? Because I have no clue. I tried to figure out the layer/CSS style thing and I think I broke something. *weeps*
