[challenge entry] Not strictly public art, but I've drawn it now, so I might as well post it


PS it's not the real Mort, merely a plaster model. Look carefully: Mort created this 'art' so he's unlikely to be inside the glass tanks of formaldehyde himself.

From the Bad Public Art challenge. See all 209 entries (closed)

# you know that if you take that ?dc=xxx
nonsense off the URL for the hat, it`ll let us cache the pic in our browsers :)

is your hat URL

the ?dc= shit stops browsers from caching the image, so it has to be downloaded every time your hat is on screen... that`s a lot of extra downloads over a day :p

same goes for any images posted on MSN

# when you copy the image location from msn groups
delete the end bit (including the ? ) back to the .gif or .jpg

i.e.
imagename.jpg instead of imagename.jpg?xxxx

then they will cache in peoples browsers and not take as long to load
