or...who's got the guts

In keeping with the finest of traditions I attribute to the great skinners of the WC community. I have but a single question. With all the jibe about curried cabbage what would a WB look like if someone would dare make one using the now infamous 'curried cabbage' as a theme. Any takers?
Your kidding about the face right, have you seen my picture
But if you want to use it, be my guest...
Cool Po
Sure can, buddy! Red curried cabbage, green curried cabbage... can't see the diff, really. It's the spirit of the thing that matters, and WOW, I'm still pretty stoked about that start panel... now that really is in keeping with the spirit of things. Shoot, when I get back for running some errands, I'll even get stuck into some red cabbage icons to go with it. 
Red cabbage substyle and red cabbage icons oh my. How about a cauldron with starkers stirring over a raring fire at midnight with a full moon and a witch silhouetted in front for a DX. Just a thought.
Pointed black hat and holey robe the good doctor sits on a rock laptop in hand furiously tapping away using keyboard shortcuts 'cause his mouse got ate by the cat. Greenish/brown steam rising from the LCD as it cooks the curried cabbage to a turn. Acolytes Po and v dancing in white robes in rapt awe and anticipation of the finished product.
starkers stops stirring for a moment and beckons the doc over. She dips a wooden spoon into the and as flames lick the wooden spoon the doc samples the first curried cabbage WB. Smacking his lips as the taste is oh soooo good when all of a sudden his eyes bulge...his belly rumbles loudly...he bends over and......
BAMMM!!!....Planet Earth vanishes in a nuclear mushroom cloud oddly tainted a greenish/brown hue.
This is great, Po, you might have started a wb u actually HAVE to finish! 
This is community spirit at it's best: The coersion of Po' into attaining new heights as a graphic artist!
sydneysiders had what can only be called a moment of inspiration (don't inspire too deeply though, dear) regarding the red cabbage substyle.
I think WebGizmos is available to do the WinFart Theme (9.5/10 stars). m1 could also contribute some bananas to this effort.
I'd really appreciate v making the red cabbage substyle and maybe RedneckDude could do the DX?
It'd be a RedneckDudeRedCabbageDX. Longest named theme in WC history...for the 'lingering' effect.
So, Po'... you got your Doctor's Note a 'major' one at that....how about it? Pwease?
I don't have the talent with windowblinds to do what I would like to with this skin. Too many little extras I would want to add to it that I either can't make work or just wouldn't work. It may be better as a DXTheme. There's a lot more room to play around with the design.
Whichever way you want to do it. Helluva time to be 'puterless...sheesh!
OK I have to comment they now have a company that is working on a piece of hardware that contains like 6 primary scents (odors) that works off a mathmatical formula that will allow a web builder to insert the formula into a html,css,xml.......page
then you could allow users to smell the ocean,or rainforest,perfume while on your web site.The hardware sprays an atomized mist mixed to the formula!
Now I have to go find the email!
Who would 'donate' the scent? Would it possible to have celebrity scents?
I have come to conclusion.
I need to find new friends.
I already have half the icons worked out in my head. My wife already looks over my shoulder and says 'What is THAT?' I could just imagine having to explain THIS. I have windowblinds I have been toying with for years. I don't need this. You guys are a bad influence.
You're missing the obvious.
Make the blind based on a 'perfume'.
L'odeur de Chou et de Curry
Very glassy, perfume bottle image (glass cabbage head?) and lots of fake ads with all your catchy remarks as slogans.
AND WE ARE THE BAD INFULENCE!? 
Precisely, Harley! Good for you. Perhaps you'd help with the skin? You're an awesome skinner, mate!
Po's being recalcitrant and trying to make folks beg him...which is downright cruel.
I'm thinking maybe we should be tackling this one from a slightly different angle: "The Big Bang". Just from the opposite direction. Instead of the beginning of the Universe, we'd be looking at the end...caused by the Black Hole created by the Curried Cabbage singularity's epicenter in Queensland....starkers being the Event Horizon.
Po`, you have enormous talent and are more than capable of completing the main structure of a WB... as for those othe, more 'fiddly' bits you're not overly confident with, well there's people like vStyler, theAVMAN, Vampothika and others that my partially dormant mind isn't remembering right now who I'm sure would be more than happy to help.
That's the great thing about the WC community... nobody is stumped for long, thanks to a beaut bunch of folk who are always willing to lend a hand/assistance. If I could help I would, but SKS confuses the bejesus out of me... altering a ready made skin more to my needs/liking is one thing, but creation, well that's gonna take a few more years. And we don't want this Curried Cabbage WB to be the longest production ever, just ahead of WOM's by a year or 3 in time taken to complete it.. 
Um, like, um, wouldn't moi be the obvious choice? I mean, it's not like when I fart it smells like French cologne. I'm the original curried cabbage 'barker'... been at it for years so I'm experienced and surely qualified.
NO you DON'T!!!! The friends you have already are a great bunch and are in NO way corrupting you. A bad influence indeed! Truth is, you are a devious and consumate mischief maker at heart, so when this discussion about a skin dedicated to pure farting power began, you jumped at the chance to participate. Nope, nobody twisted your arm... you jumped in with both feet and your participation is purely voluntary, and most welcome, I might add. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me none that you're secretly scoffing down bowls of curried cabbage to heighten your spirit for a project that obviouly has you tickled pink.
If anyone is a bad influence, Po`, it's you... but then that's weclome and neeeded here, so don't plan on going anywhere anytime soon. Besides, Doc is an expert forger and we have your signature on a contract.... just in case.
Yup, Harley, you would make a fantastic addition to the team, so how about it, mate????
As for Po` being recalcitrant, Doc, dunno we have to worry about that anymore.... hehe, not since you forged his signature on that contract.
I can do the graphics. I just don't have an understanding of the limitations of waht will and won't work.
I also don't know how to assemble the things.
If I COULD make a blind, I promise, not only would I be making them, I would more than likely be the one who would be putting stuff like this together everytime someone through out an idea because it's fun.
Newsflash dot dot dot dash dot dot...Queensland Australia was blown to the far side of the universe today. Where the starkers home used to be is a weird greenish/brown glowing goo. Explanation by various hazmat teams flown in from around the globe have come to a tentative conclusion that it was the result of a massive eruption of curried cabbage gas built up inside, they believe, the living room of the starkers home.
This just in......the new and improved Hubble Telescope has identified the largest explosion ever recorded at a distance of 13.57998 billion light years distant. The image resolves into, they think, a similar greenish/brown glow goo found at ground zero Queensland. They estimate the power output to be somewhere in the neighborhood of 7.33572 googols.
Stay tuned for the latest developements as they come in. We now return you to your regularly scheduled programs.
Like I said, Po`, you have a great bunch of mates here who would gladly assist in putting together your graphics and ideas.
You can't be gifted/talented at EVERYTHING, right??? Well that's where youre mates come in.... and I'll bet pounds to a pinch of sh!t that there's a fantastic team of those very mates who would glady offer whatever assistance you need. I mean, just look at the success of the TTD Suite and how many skinners jumped in to contribute.... and it'd be no different here.
All jokes aside, smell-0-vision and the like, this is a project that has potential to become something great, so how about it people, and get behind this venture... our good friend Po` Smedley.
As far as I'm concerned, Po' is as awesome a graphic artist as exists....and the skinners could help as well...just as starkers and I pointed out/suggested.
This could be a great community project too. It would be awesome since we non skinners would get involved making 'whatever' we can...sound effects, gas, inane and insane comments...it'd be another flying circus:
The coveted "Curried Cabbage Community Project Hopelessly Talent Challenged Never A Skinner Award" (CCCPHTCNASA) which looks like Russian and NASA (Rocket Scientists We Ain't).
After all, it's only right that the genius wot made the Personal Gallery Shot Down By the Best Award be behind this too: None other than the one and only ("The South Shall Rise Again" [Like Matzos]) Po' Smedley.
C'mon Po'. Join the Merry Crew, eh? My clan battle cry: "Pwease?".
My clan... er, ship's battle cry is: "Avast me 'earty, git ta swabbin' or it be orf t' tha bilge wiv 'e!"
In other words: "skinning above deck is a lot more comfortable than being sent below to the bowels of the ship, where curried cabbage effluent freely flows and pungent gases keep it rat free, even.
I must point out at this time, the entire crew has a thrice daily serving of Curried cabbage (breakfas, lunch and dinner), so even a nasally dysfunctional crewman is gonna suffer if sentto the bilge.
blah. blah, blah...I'll try.
I sent AvMan the start window to look at.
I got and taking a look
BTW testing OCCAM now 
Occam looks to be super dynamite! BTW...I'm really waitin' for that one Po' Beautiful DX!
I'm having trouble with the scripts on the DX, but getting help. I love the theme and thought it would make an excellent suite all the way around. AVMan was kind enough to give me some assistance on the blind.
I accepted an invite for msn messenger from one of you boneheads this morning, but it ain't showing. I think it was you, DOC. Anyway... my email is my msn handle. I am also on Meebo as PoSmedley.
****How do we like the second start window? Until I hear from AVMan to see if it's workable, I need to know if we like it. I am open to suggestions.
