I highlighted the points that I find interesting. Especially when you look at the artwork for the "MUSIC TO KILL FOR" comps. Here are a few examples, within the NSFW tag to tidy up the post.

I don't know if that will work.. your image is original and good, not some random stock image turned negitive and put through a filter to make it look "hip"

I'm kinda jealous of that hair in blooghost's avatar.

that image was a cell phone camera set on "Negative" pointed at my reflection in the mirror of my Pop's bathroom. While I was wearing a ghost mask. But thanks! Plus, I don't have that bitchin' Minoan codpiece...

OMG! I'm so glad I looked at your FB page! Now I've seen all the top of the range bands you've worked with such as Iggy Pop (although there's no connection between you and him anywhere) and famous producers such as that guy whose name you can't disclose, I'm itching to work with you! I hope Eric takes the time to thoroughly research my band, as I can guarantee he won't have his little feelings hurt by me asking if this is a scam. Do you think my car is a fair exchange for your amazing exposure and eye-catching artwork? Contact me soon, pls!
PS: I'll send you a photo of me naked doing naughty, illegal things to a goat as a token of how serious I am about our professional relationship! Actually, fuck the professional relationship. Will you marry me? How many children should we have? I think three should be enough. And goats! Loads of goats! (I'm just not a monogamous guy). And if Eric gets angry at us because he was secretly in love with me, we can just blame one of the goats! Get it? Scapegoat! No? Fuck you. I want a divorce. I'm keeping the kids (both the human and goat ones).
I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME!!!

If anyone needs someone to confide in after learning that your music isn't going to amount to anything... I am here. Well, I have to go replace a few panels on my back porch but after that I will be here for you.

Even if none of the musicians/bands on this board NEVER get bought out by Disney, or whoever n' fuck,ILF takes care of ILF. Ilf doesn't care what its bands and musicians look like, nor does it give a flyin' fuck about "conveying an image". Here, "sounds good" IS good. That is all. See, this isn't JUST a message board,it's a community-a community wherein bands and musicians can exchange and even buy/sell their music. And while I'm pretty sure that most of us here don't make Nickelback money, we do take care of our own. Granted, we're mostly here to support our resident builders (who, in my mind, are revolutionary, ground-breaking, and are redefining the idea of what a good pedal should be/do). But we're so much more than that. So to put this all into a nutshell, we don't need you, or your seedy ass, hardly-ethical, ponzi scheme to "help" us reach our goals/do what we do. Kthx
just see for yourselves!
