Well, it was Caracol who use these graphics...and believe me, the Vangelis thing doesn´t suprises me. I once went to a Canal Caracol division with my company to see if we wont their account for a design presentation in a reunion...as a result, they didn't picked us BUT they stole our demo (And since it was a demo, there was no way we could sue them)... good thing their script failed in the middle of the party...that's what I call "divine punishment" ^^; thanks again, everyone for the info. ohh…I had no idea about that…thanks guys.

'cos i thought i saw Caracol sometime ago using the 2002 world cup theme compossed by Vangelis almost 50 days before the 2006 world cup.
