Sea Captain: "Aarrr. 'Tis not a man, 'tis a remorseless eatin' machine!"

Burns: "Smithers, hand me that ice cream scoop."
Smithers: "Um, ice cream scoop, sir?"
Burns: "Dammit, Smithers! This isn't rocket science, it's brain surgery. Now hand me that ice cream scoop!"

Homer: "Mmm, doughnut (or beer, or pressed peanut sweepings, or any momentary object of desire)."

Quimby (to Leonard Nimoy): "May the force be with you."

Me either, but $14 was just barely tolerable. The only two things I'd change about the figure, and they're minor, are the helmet and the shoulders. Since the helmet has to come off easily in the meditation chamber, it isn't secured to the head and goes tumbling across the desk/floor if an attempted pose fails and the figure tips over. I stole a small adhesive dot from my wife's scrapbooking supplies and fixed that. I'd like it if the arms could raise or lower to the side, but the shoulder armor interferes with that. As it is, he can hold the saber vertically in both hands in a ready position near the right shoulder, sit on his knees with his hands atop his head (you're under arrest, Lord Vader!) or simultaneously scratch both his stomach and his butt.

There are tons of templates (both blank and in stock layouts for all studios), logos, fonts, and finished custom covers at Dagon's Den. They also have a paid subscription resource area with high-res poster art, stills, credit blocks, etc.

As for Photoshop knowledge and/or skill, it's something you just pick up through books, online tutorials, and way more practice and noodling around than I've put in thus far. The basics are fairly easy to get down, it's the little tricks to digitize imagination that take time and patience to learn.

Some people just derive some enjoyment from being scared, whether it's the adrenaline surge from **BOO!!** jump-scares or seeing people pleading for their existence at axe-point and thinking "better him than me." I for one look forward to the launch of The Horror Channel and really dig horror movies, as long as they're at least decent and show a little bit of creativity. My wife doesn't get into them much at all, so I usually wind up seeing them by myself. I think it's a fair trade for being able to skip American romantic comedies.

Yeah, it's pretty handy stuff. I've been running SageTV on my PC for several months and absolutely love it. Then a few weeks ago we noticed that DirecTV is giving away the R10 DVR box (sells for $99.99ish, and has a $100 rebate) so we picked one up to put in the living room. The new setup allows the wifey to time-shift her stuff and record shows we watch together on the new unit, and lets me use the PC DVR for simultaneous programming and things I want to archive. She's quickly grown to see the beauty of a tapeless existence, and as soon as I back up a few boxes full of old tapes our last VCR will be tucked away into the back of a closet.
