You'll need to have it hosted somewhere, ISP webspace is a good place for that. Or perhaps photobucket or imageshack would work as well.

Literally, "God Dawn," but that isn't very good. The best meaning is "twilight of the gods." Meaning, that mankind is seeing the need to move past the need for a higher belief. At least, I hope so.

That looks like German... Or is it something else?

I didn't know you could fit umlaut characters in there without using html codes, which would undoubtedly exceed the limit for letters :) .

Yes, but I'm a perfectionist when language is concerned.

Firefox has a built-in tool that lets you put in special characters, I just use that. Über!

Sometimes the forums screw up special characters if you repost. Example: One time, I was describing a program to someone, and it involved theta. So I typed in θ and checked the html box so it would show up as theta, and it did. When I went back to edit something, it came up on the edit screen as the actual character, not the html code I typed in. When I sent that n, however, the theta was replaced with some wierd accented letter so I had to edit it again. Moral of this story: Use html for special characters.
