NWFlyer 2 #1 April 24, 2007 No shit, there I was, IMing with micro this afternoon, when I started to play around with my Yahoo avatar. I figured it was time to take off the winter clothes and the winter background. So first I found a background that was an open airplane door. Huh. Why on earth would you have an open airplane door available as a background? So I start going through the clothing options and I stumble upon a wingsuit and a freefly suit. No grippers available, I'm afraid. How fucking cool is this?"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

ACMESkydiver 0 #2 April 24, 2007 Sweetheart did you not remember that my yahoo has been jumping for several months now? Oh yeah, you couldn't see it because you were on that weird thingy... ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

NWFlyer 2 #3 April 24, 2007 Well, at least your avatar's jumping.And this is totally news to me since I'm more often on "that weird thingy" (aka trillian) than I am on yahoo. And, in my defense, I only have you on AIM, not yahoo. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

Amazon 7 #5 April 24, 2007 Uh hate to be critical but that is more like a CAMERA suit.... Wingsuit has that whole crotch thingie going on Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #6 April 24, 2007 Yeah, it's sort of in between - no leg wings going on, but those are some damned large camera wings. But yahoo does call it a wingsuit. Of course, it also appears that yahoo skydivers don't have reserve handles. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

boinky 0 #7 April 24, 2007 That IS pretty cool. I have Yahoo, but don't really use it any more since my honey can't get on line in the evenings. I have a freefalling person as my AOL instant messenger avatar. Of course, I don't ever use THAT any more either! Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts?
