Brian, my first Campfire bot

I've been playing around a lot lately, especially with Ruby and Rails. Our team just signed up with Campfire, so I decided to try my hand at writing a bot. His name is Brian and he currently greets you if you say hi, hello, howdy, sups, or yo, and he fetches a random animated GIF on demand. Not exactly productive (yet), but I have some plans.

I want to give him a solid personality, so I started designing a little frame for his photo (inspired by Lion's user avatars). I rarely get to design things anymore, so I feel a little rusty. I'm also trying to get a better feel for Fireworks. At the same time, I'm experimenting with depth in my design. I typically stick to flat, solid colors, but it's always good to go outside your comfort zone.
