You're taking it too seriously.

It looks like a dodgy spyware/cracked app virus, looks nothing like Image Line's work.

And if i want humour i'll go to the stand up comedy club, FL Studio needs a MAJOR rebranding and resorting if it wants the respect it craves

It's called an easter egg. There are tons of them in many different programs. It's kind of like how you play pinball in Microsoft Word 97, except it is just a picture of a little girl at a desk. It took a programmer very little time to make a little joke, and I don't think any less of the company for it.

Personally, I'd respect Propellerheads and Steinberg a lot more if they'd put stuff like this into their products. The real problem is people (like you) taking themselves too seriously.

I used to be bothered about how flstudio is seen as toy by some people but now I couldn't give a fuc. If it's good enough for what I want to do with it then who cares what the anybody else thinks.

electron machinedrum has an easter egg where you can see elvis in the display.

I used to like the machine, but that made it a complete useless children's toy.

I agree with you mate! You could argue that it was a harmless bit of fun but why was it done? The Image Line staff should save their school yard pranks for a Friday night down the pub not for their customers.

It doesn't say a lot about their level of professionalism or their respect for the people who buy their software.

Why shouldn't we take ourselves seriously? Some of us pay good money for a professional program and a professional level of service, we should get it!

there is a difference between taking yourself seriously and too seriously. Are you too good for a simple laugh?

No, not at all! But I am less inclined to see the funny side when the joke is on me. And Image Line should have better things to do with their time than play silly games.

Just about every major piece of software (including windows) has an easter egg. It's just they're usually not so in you face as FL, and you got to know where to find it in the program.
