    Oh, that's right! Bit-tech is occupied by humourless pedophobic moral crusaders. I forget these things.

    It's from a piece of fiction, so moral objections can be dispensed with. It looks awesome and has a gritty, depressing yet inspiring tone, like the Tank Man photo; I don't approve of Communist police state oppression, but I still had this as my background:

    Distinguish between displaying something because it's poignant and celebrating something as a moral template, for Christ's sake.

    The difference is you support that man - not the tanks.

    If you're ever a suspect in a crime, and they find that on your hard drive - that's gonna put you right in the spotlight....

    My quest continues to create something with mspaint that's interesting to look at. I don't know what happened here though, I think I must be regressing into adolescence.
