    WOW! I'd ask how you do that but I'm sure I wouldn't understand if you tried to tell me. It's a real shame that ODP lost the interest of someone with your obvious talent. :(

    I put you in my favorites, looking forward to seeing the work you plan on uploading. :)

    I guess it would be quite funny if you're a bit pessimistic; try looking at this from another angle.

    It's not that hard with the right (freeware) tools. The tutorial is linked from that site :). Give it a try if you like.
    I had to buy a new computer for the new one :cool:

    Life has taught me well I guess :cool: BTW: I call it realistic, you call it pessimistic. I simply divide my time into wort it and not worth it. DMOZ slid from one corner into the other. Not really a big deal. Got too many other things on my mind to stay upset.

    So was I ;)
    I see that there are indeed good honest people editing DMOZ. Maybe there is hope yet :cool:

    I appreciate your time replying to what I so obviously called a Rant :) (I am quick to rant too, but I don't like holding back, even if it gets me kicked somewhere).

    There are quite a few VERY HELPFUL METAS in the ODP. There is Motzie and Hutskie. <<<< Rant :D
    With Motskie some can learn the Art of Whacking. With Hutskie inquire why you did not become an editor or ask about your not listed site.

    Surely a lovable and polite answer is always avilable.

    Pssst, it is very simple one and I know that for sure since I'm professional in that discipline, it is called laziness (that is me in the video)! :D
