    I got it and it was some V3 hair. What am I going to do with a non free V3 hair?

    ...gahhh!!!!! First ESPN messes up their site, then just a few moments when I went to the Daz store, this pops up (and I have pop up blockers activated).

    Click on it to make it go away and it places a random item in the cart, the downside being the item isn't free but costs money.

    It is April 1st, you know. If you mean that entire thing at the top is a popup, that's not the case. But that's been there for a long time now, so I can't see that as the issue. Unless you are pulling an April Fools joke on us.

    ...no, it really loads the item in the cart with no discount to offset the price even after going to the checkout page.where you need to enter your CC number or use PayPal.

    A joke shouldn't cost you anything.

    I clicked on the scrolling thing to see what it was and it didn't add it to my cart. And I just did it again, and still, nothing added to my cart. I agree that it should just be free, like April Fool items of the past. It is a real item. It has two planes and two "beams" holding them up, and another little thing in the middle of nowhere. Still...I wouldn't think of paying $5 for that. Free, maybe!

    Even the jokes aren't as good lately.

    doh, having trouble concentrating on excel today.

    watched 5 smallville episodes last night.
    they were calling him A.C. but me thinks it was aquaman. and he was married.
    supergirl wasn't Helen Slater. Helen Slater cameo'd as mom. and Terri Hatcher as Lois's mom.
    is cute how they bring in the lois and clark actors.

    is a new song. not the pretty face beside a train song.

    the Blur has a kinda Frodo look


    Arthur Curry, and yes, Aquaman.

    I have never seen that on this site's store. Ever. Very odd.

    Oops, I left the store page up for a while, and I just saw it. So, you actually clicked on that? Even though it said to add something random to your cart? Clicking on a popup would be a bad thing normally...why would you think differently on this site? And why did they think Clippy would be a good thing? People hated that in Microsoft Office products! I heard a lot of people complain about it, a majority of users I'd say. It was so annoying.

    ....that was the way to get rid of in in MS Office until I found in the preferences where I could turn it off.

    ...and who knows, maybe Daz was doing something legit with it (like giving away a random freebie).

    I think some folks think April Fools jokes like "Made you look!" or "Your shoes are untied!" are funny instead of just sophomoric and annoying. (shrug emote)

    ...well, with the way Daz keeps messing around with the site and changing things, It's getting difficult to tell it is or isn't a "real"anymore.

    It should have posted that it was a prank either in the cart or even when clicked on, not actually place a real item of value in there..

    Only $1? If that worked, I'd be a millionaire in no time! And so would you. Even if they saw it before, they'd probably still pay the $1 to find out again! :lol:

    I saw the Disney SW/ST thing as well on DeviantART. Didn't find it funny, since instead of nonsensical and silly, it was more like a grim reminder of the garbage Modern Disney pulls and may very well pull in the future. Give them time, they'll go through with that.

    This however, was pretty cute.

    ...however they were forced to retreat from their makeover of the character Merida to make her fit more into the image of what a "Disney Princess" should be and look like after fans of the film (including many parents and even some writers) voiced their displeasure over the change saying the new look reinforced old stereotypical values.

    A small but nonetheless significant victory.

    Here's a comparison the "real" character (left) and the "idealised" version.(right).

    It wouldn't be Disney if they didn't do the Disney thing to their characters :lol: Dumbo has been on TV here just the past few weeks, is doubtful they could make the raising the tent sequence now without raising a lot of eyebrows as well, but is still possibly the most teh awesome animated drawing in cinema :lol:
