Re: TI-H: EL Panel




Um ... That you are an inconsiderate fucking ass-hole?
tell us the link to the panels or keep your mouth shut, this list is for 
shareing ideas, not seeing who can do what first and then not telling

people spend their weekend searching for it. and so what if mel made you 
search... i also have an opinion about mel which i wont share..(but yes 
he is a nice guy.) ive sent 2 hours looking for the page and i cant find 
it. if i ever do i will post it for everyone though!
OK thats my 2 cents worth.(yes i am only worth 2 cents)
