Curried Cabbage WB
or...who's got the guts
Saturday, May 23, 2009 by Uvah | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
In keeping with the finest of traditions I attribute to the great skinners of the WC community. I have but a single question. With all the jibe about curried cabbage what would a WB look like if someone would dare make one using the now infamous 'curried cabbage' as a theme. Any takers?

PO......
man ! Your art work is awesome but the angled start menu probably won't resize very well.Dont shoot me though cause I love the concept but we need some straight sides somewhere to stretch.

With curried cabbage involved it needs to be bigger....MUCH BIGGER. ![]()

I see.
Don't be ridiculous. There's too many witnesses.
I'm gonna try one or two more changes to this to make it workable before I go back to the square one. What about this one?

I couldn't get it or the one I sent you (the second version) to size right. Was it me or is either workable?
I'll be back.

The explosion idea is spot on! It should resemble a nuclear detonation. Say about.......150 gigatons. That'll ruin your day in a hurry. Is that good starkers![]()
For comparison: A 15 kiloton can level a city (Hiroshima, Nagasaki).
A 20 megaton will make an island vanish (Bikini Atoll).
A volcanic eruption (a really good analogy) such as Krakatoa was the equivalent to ten thousand such. That was heard round the world.
Or...A star (blue giant) 10,000 times more massive than the sun implodes and creates a black hole. That should be big enough eh what?

How about this? (And would it be possible to animate the fans?)
*I should have used a background for this preview. The curry windows are semi-transparent.

Krakatoa was but a tom thumb fire cracker compared to one of my better super duper, fuel injected, turbo charged, triple heavy duty curried cabbage barks.
Dunno 'bout a black hole, more like brownish with a green twinge after a bowl of curried cabbage.

I'm not sure if I should hold my breath now, while waiting for this or after it is released.

I agree with starkers on this one, it's toxic, more than comical.
I do realize how debateable that is...
Another thing that would be super cool is if there were toxic fumes comin out of the two toxice signs on the left and right side of panel when the start button is used... That would be hot.
