BTW. I like the faction/neutral themes, but it seems by default it shows TR theme?

What is this sorcery?

Haha, if you didn't pick a theme yourself at some point - then it just picks a random one for each session :-)

When you pick one, it should save that preference in a cookie for you.

The randomizer might not work, as I only had TR for the last few days, but can't say for sure.

Anyways, I'm happy with my blue and yellow

I'm doing an MSc in Stats and would love to get involved somehow, although I can't really think how right now. Basically if you come up with any ideas for data analysis I'd be very interested in helping!

i love graphs, so i would say the data all needs to be put into awesome looking graphs

I also love a good graph.... to keep it iPad friendly I'll probably be using these beauties:

As opposed to flash based ones.

Lol, well they work on other computers too... but if you get an iPad you'll be able to watch the map change without switching screens in game and risking being shot :P

Other tablets are available (assuming apple hasn't sued the makers into oblivion!)

I dont baseline understand tablets. I mean, it's too big to actually be that mobile, and if I'm dragging something of that size with me, I rather want it with a keyboard.

That said, if/when Nokia comes out with tablet (I'd guess Win 8 on it?), I might be interested, but the price ranges are out of my league

same here, i cant justify the use of the thing vs the cost
i would rather cary my laptop around, atleast i can play some games on my laptop ( i mean REAL games

)

and i say ipad, but i really mean tablets in general

I could work on these if you tell me what you'd like.

Personally, I was using a laptop for browsing the web in front of the TV if something caught my interest; the tablet is much better because it doesn't get as hot, isn't as heavy, and is 'on' instantly rather than waiting for boot up or recover from sleep mode.

I also carry it around the house with me, use it for getting recipes if i'm in the kitchen, or song tabs if i'm feeling musical, or catching up on TV programmes on the BBC iPlayer without having to get out of bed on a weekend morning... fantastic little gadget

Colorpilot has already said he'll do a couple of banners for me; but it can never hurt to have more choice if you want a couple of designs to the mix.

Once I have the first designs which will show the area needed to be left blank for text to be dynamically inserted, you're welcome to contribute some more if you like. I imagine that outfits will be able to create and upload their own specific ones too.
