Firefox is an alternative to crappy IE. It's cuts out all the crap out of IE

oh ok sorry wasnt thinking

hi ste

[jameseuk]

do you think radio 1 will have any other animated characters/alerts?

eg Aled,Dave,Rachel,Will,Colin & Edith,Jo Whiley etc?

Maybe radio 2 could get their own alerts service like radio1 now has,I quite like the idea of a mini Terry or Jonathan or Dermot on my pc

[Toast]

Terry Wogan on my desktop...I'd pay for that

[jameseuk]

as much as I love mini moyles, I have to say the face doesnt look quite right.

What do you think?

[jameseuk]

Terry Wogan on my desktop...I'd pay for that

but Skinkers are free in the 1st place

im guessing by the fact that they are called Mini DJs that more will appear soon, i suppose they started with Moyles because he's the stations flagship DJ. i don't think there would be any more day time DJs, more like Zane Lowe, John Peel, Pete Tong etc...

[Ickle Angel]

Ive got theMoyles one but my speakers have broke. Is he actually meant to talk?

[Jono]

I don't think he seems to talk, he just makes random sounds when walking away, etc.

[B26354]

makes no sound here, you kinda expect a sound when he's flying away.
