What is 'beautiful' about it? There's absolutely nothing beautiful about it at all. I don't think the OP realizes what "beautiful" means.

I recommend using the content in the link itself: it's described as 'awesome' not 'beautiful'.

What's funny is that since this doesn't actually work like a JS Alert, it's actually quite 'ugly'. ;)

As a non-native English speaker, it feels weird seeing phrases like this. In my opinion, a more appropriate word would be 'elegant'.
