In response to JP's suggestion in the "Born On" date thread, I would like to quote from the Book of Mozilla:
Please, please, no blinking! <insert begging smiley here>Quote:
II. Mozilla, caput XXVII:22
And the Lizard named several of the locusts, and regarding one the Lizard said, The <blink> tag worketh not. Whereupon the users hearing this were sore amazed, and said they one unto another, Verily, that is no bug, but a feature to be highly praised while it lasteth.
I would like to quote from the HTML Hell Page

blinking text
Blinking text makes it nearly impossible to pay attention to anything else on the page. It reduces 87% of all surfers to a helpless state of fixated brain-lock, much like that of a rabbit caught in the headlights of an oncoming semi. This is not good. If you abuse the blink tag, you deserve to be shot. Clue: if you use the blink tag, you're abusing it.
blinky blinky
Your complaing with that avatar you have ac1dsp3ctrum?????
How bout if it just blinks like 3 or 4 times and then stops..
Nah... just go steal the Hamster Dance "theme song" and make that play on all the old posts/threads... ROFL *running and ducking*
good idea, is it possible?, I think 3 or 4 blinks is a bit to little maybe 10? Just an idea.
Ohhhh, I want the hamster dance song, I want the hamster dance song...PLEASE?

LMAO!
Deb :D
That's a hilarious quote.
You know, I've never even noticed that blink didn't work. I guess I'm not missing much then, huh?
Well, I'm glad you liked my idea JP, however, I see not the blink.
From whence cometh thine blink?
Forsooth, yon blink?
Greetings:
Urgh, bitch bitch bitch bitch bitch........ Some of you are never happy, are you? haha.
At any rate, the blinking stays. It's just for dates on old posts, not like you'll ever really be seeing it a lot anyway.
