Most of you have a shit ISP that overcharges you for unreliable service and can’t do shit about it because that company either has a micromonopoly in your region or because they are considered the “least worst” of your “options”. What you may not realize is that the same shit company is also making serious bank off those stupid 404-jacking pages they send you half the time instead of the local site’s. They sell these huge data streams of their customers 404′d requests to domain squatting types so that you’re guaranteed to get an MFA when you type in http://www.yxhoo.com/ or the like.

Anyhoo… my ISP’s awesome dev dept conveniently forgot to ensure the opt out feature worked prior to launch. And for the record, I’d be perfectly happy with the ads and personal information leaks if they would charge less or at least provide me with the level of service I pay for.

Now, will someone tell me why ebay is still buying ads for everything? I thought they filtered out “Nukes” and other nefarious keywords long ago.

I see so many new Entrecard users that are using the basic 125x125px cards so I figured I would show you how to make your own custom one using GIMP (The GNU Image Manipulation Program). This tutorial will show you the steps you need to do in order to make your own 100% free and legal card using open source software and public domain images.

Once you’ve gotten the hang of these steps, you may wish to look at more advanced GIMP tutorials that will show you how to add special effects to your text and graphic.
