Merry Media

Have a look at this - Anna from BB1 has been mugged Sad Looks like an exclusive to me ... not seen this anywhere else yet.

Looks a promising site for all sorts of media news - have a look.

Self-publicity is such a nice thing...

Sorry for being nosy and have probably wondered past the wrong page but why has lots of threads got people posting pictures of trains? I'm sure its a 'In house joke' but just wondering - perhaps a link to the origin? Very Happy

We post a picture of a train, if a thread is going nowhere fast, and is very likely to be locked by the moderators.

It's mainly threads by trolls and morons that end up getting the train pic treatment.

It's not a bad site in actual fact; but I assume most if not all of the stories are taken from larger news portals.

The layout is easy to follow, and the inclusion of pictures in each of the headlines is a nice touch.

In this instance, I think the train should stay in the depot.

Thanks for that answer Gum Boy. I see now!
Gavin - I think your right about the news portal idea, the site seems like that although the colours are not appealing with the site - to much red and orange.

I help out with some of the news on the website but don't own it I'm afraid. It does have potential but then so does any website that makes any kind of real effort. The colours as mentioned needs to be better and I hear it is being worked on.
