    So, what does the yin-yang say about you that the flag doesn't? .

    hmm, I like the yin-yang symbol, but may I suggest you maybe brighten the colors to black and white or maybe get fancy with it and make them whatever colors you like. Green and yellow, red and blue, purple and grey, etc... Kinda makes things interesting I think .

    Well the flag was more a joke then anything else. I did it in my room under a Pink Floyd poster that said mother should I trust the government, which I dont, I saw the flag on a site so I turned it around like the one in my room. Now I have started to think about it and I think a lot of people get the wrong idea about the upsidedown flag. I actually do like my country So I wanna change.

    As for the Yin-Yang Ive been wearing one around my neck for 4 years. I like the way it looks, and I agree with much of the philosophy behind it. I think im gonna play with this one, and I will have a custom one later on

    I think the new avatar is great. Afterall, I think of Prox as more of a yin-yang than a flag. .

    i just played with it for a few minutes, and got this:

    <IMG SRC="http://www.aliensoup.com/ubb/image_uploads/yinyangflame.gif" border=0>

    i didn't want to ruin the flame effect with transparency - if all the message boxes were the same color, i could matte it on that and it would look great, but they alternate. anyhoo, this looks cool imho.

    ok i did two more from scratch. the first one has better, softer flames, but the matting is going to make it kinda ugly in the lighter color bacground for posts.

    the second one doesn't have the matting problem because the flames stop abruptly with no softness.

    the first one:
