Hi !
I am pleased to announce that the french-speaking pov-team have produced
an advent calendar which is available here : http://avent.les-charles.net/
(move your mouse slowly all over the screen to find the daily
constellation, then click on it to view the daily image)
have fun !

You know, the hiding-information-from-the-user metaphor just
doesn't work in the WWW. A good user interface should clearly
show the user the available options and how to access them.
Just the fact that you wrote those usage instructions should
be a warning sign of a bad page design.

It's an *** advent calendar ***. Hiding the stuff is on purpose, for
something called "fun".

I'm sorry for chocolates, but they were impossible to insert in the USB
plug. I have been forced to eat them all ! ;-)

Yeah, it was so "fun" that I was amused for the duration of finding
about one link. Then I got bored.
Sorry. :(

Have you tried inputing them in the pc’s coffee cup holder?
LOL What’s the “Easter Bunny” doing in a Christmas scene? He looks like he
lost his shirt during an all night session.

It's sometimes a game, sometimes 'tude. Works as well on the www as
anywhere.

I agree they shouldn't have written the instructions but hey, it's xmas
and anyway, this server has a low tolerance for 'tude.
