The most amazing thing about this thread is the complete lack of creativity. You all seem to be doing exactly the same thing, slinging mud at a wall in the hope something will work. Every good idea is leapt on and copied, which doesn't make it a good idea.

A good idea is something that can't be easily copied and still works. The most successful are those who came up with something new, not those who copied everyone else.
