Reese35, your guide is GREAT!!!! I can't wait to see the rest. It was good getting to see the additional quotes from the Pilot episode too - were they all of them? Were there any additional scenes too, or all the same scenes but just extended with the extra quotes?

Okay, let's compare the TV version with the DVD version. In the TV version, the song when Lois is shaving Hal's back is "It's Your Thing." In the DVD version, it's "You Sexy Thing." The opening scene does have a couple of additional quotes and more quiet time. In the DVD version, as Malcolm is heading to the office, Caroline is reading a magazine (don't see that on the TV version). More quiet time during Mal/Stevie's scene; as Malcolm is telling us about saturday mornings, we find Lois in the background, heading to the washer; as Francis goes bye-bye for the day, Mal/Reese/Dewey are chatting about how lucky Francis is, and a scuffle is started about skiing in Alabama; additional quotes in dinner scene, bedroom scene, classroom scene; more quiet time outside.... so to make a long story short, same scenes, but more time.

Re: inGuide: MITM

By the way, here's a little note on a mini-Extreme Makeover - the name has changed from Everything You Need To Know about Malcolm in the Middle to inGuide: Malcolm in the Middle. The main font has changed from Anklepants (KDKA-TV's former font) to QuickExpress (WSVN-TV's news font). Anklepants is still in the actor's names in the bios section and the dates for the seasons, but everything else is QuickExpress. Soon as i get the new files in a visible area, the makeover will be revealed.

Sounds like some uncommon fonts. You're making PDF's right? Make sure you embed the fonts, or everyone who looks at it will just see Times New Roman.

I got the inspiration from idents from a Toronto television station, CITY-TV. (Just call it Citytv) There's also another Citytv in Vancouver (CKVU) and 3 more throughout Canada.The idents show people in Toronto and what they were doing. They announced and finished off the ident by saying "[From (region of Toronto) or otherwise noted], this is Citytv... Everywhere!"
Examples - Citytv Toronto

I wanted to do the same, so I got a pic of Reese showing off his hickey to Malcolm after sneaking off with those college girls from "Houseboat", and I'm sure you'll fill in the cracks.

All right. You have RealPlayer, you can check out the Citytv idents. Compare the idents with the sig/avatar, and you'll see where I got the inspiration.

Yeah, I have an issue with Real Networks. Personally, I consider Real Player spyware and thus don't use it.
