hate to spoil your fun but Pitch Black discovered that one a long time ago!

Hate to toot my own horn but I made that. Yup, the pictures from the movie "The Omen" but I colored his eyes red, and I snagged the logo's here from the site. I made it back when they first announced live four. The joke was Live 4 spelled backwards is 4-Evil. Get it, picture of Damien, 4-Evil. HA HA.

Anyway, I'm going to have to issue a cease and desist order. Just kidding. Thought I'd speak up and finally take credit as I see it used every now and then and I'm glad people enjoy it. Specially considering I was just a junior photoshopper when I threw it together.

Carry on.

Yer kinda freakin me out paddy. What's happenin man? Am I some kind of hit or something down there in Auckland or something and I just don't know about it? If so I have to tell you my wife and I would love to move to New Zealand so please book a flight for us immediately, help us get citizenship, and pull some strings so we can bring our animals with us. Ok?

Well master, Smutek of course translates into colloquial NZ English as

"the One of the Four who shall come from the northeastern corner of a great continent accross the sea to shower his mighty largesse and triumphal benificence in the instruction and guidance of the Shop of Photos so thus the people's graven images shall be forever flattened"

So does that mean my wife and I get to move to New Zealand?

Put down your pencils, we have a winner in the Ableton Live anagramming contest:

"Ableton Live" = "Li'l Beat Oven"

That just PERFECTLY describes it to me (yes, I know it can do so much more, but...) it creates in my mind this image of someone putting a whole bunch of loops, samples, and other stuff in an oven and creating some fantastic recipe...where the effects are the spices and condiments, and, well, I've really carried this metaphor way too far.

Now someone needs to photoshop a little girl's toy oven with the Ableton logo and graphics...
