The PDC05 Flair (Channel 9)

You want me to what on my weblog? :->

We've created some flair that we hope you'll put on your weblog to help promote the PDC. If you add them to your blog we'll add you to our Flair Sightings page that shows your address along with the number of referrals you've sent our way.

Don't like the versions we've created? No problem, you can create your own and upload them to our flair forum.

In this video Jeff talks more about the PDC Flair.

This seems like such a cool thing, but why name it flair??!?! Anyone who has seen Office Space must think this = bad

So do you want us to just express ourselves? Or meet the bare minimum?

Should the flair be sighted only in blogs? Can't it be a home page or a user group community?

There is no blog requirement. Flair away!

Psssssttt... If this is like C9 Guy Around the World, then the image is turned to a JPG, right? Which has no transparent background & makes it, oh so tough, to match with a web site.

Transparent images are not supported (don't want to use unsafe code on the server). Sorry. If you're worried about it, just put a 1 px solid border around your graphic. That way, it will look good on multiple backgrounds...

If you want me to put 37 pieces of flair on my site, like your pretty-boy Steve, why not just make the minimum 37 pieces of flair?

Ironically, I can put PDC flair into this comment, yet I cannot add PDC flair to my MSN Spaces Blog! As I comment here.

I'll spare the demonstration of putting PDC flair into a comment on PDC flair. That would tempt the Gods of Recursion to strike Channel 9 with their lightning...

But you can put a hyperlink in right?

Jeff Sand, you remind me of Steve Jobs, both of you have the same initials.

I created my flair, you can check it out here
