I just thought it would be cool if that blue clock on the top of the page actually worked.  As a clock.

lol.  I think we considered that, once.  Actually, for cosmetic changes, I think getting rid of the white space to the side of the entire graphic would be nice.

yeah, that would be a higher priority.

but for the clock, that'd be cool. And I have a javascript or two that will do it. Obviously it would need some tweaking to look like our blue clock and to actually fit in with the design. Scripts are notorious for looking "cliparty"

No, not a clock, a rapidly spinning dial like a stopwatch second hand.
Its an automated robot. Based on Science!

I have a flash version somewere that I made with 42's orignal graphics that works.  The main reason we never went with it is that Fell wanted the picture to show for everyone, and about 20% of PC's don't have the flash plugin.  So it wouldn't show anything.  There's a way with Javascript to check if the browsers has the flash pluging and if not load a gif/jpeg but I don't feel like writeing it.
Screw it, I'm buying crayons and paper. I can imagineer my own adventures! Wheeee!

Another thing might be to have a link from the forums page back to the main page with all the reviews.  That seems like it could be pretty easy.

Wait, wait, I just found it.  I forgot you could click on the heading at the top.  Foolish me.
