Wow, took the word right out of my mouth. The only problem is, most of the people who can't speak english are *Illegal* immigrants. I fully agree that you should HAVE to know the native language unless your just visiting for a month.For ANYWHERE, not just America. Like, we tried to sell and old Chev Blazer for cheap. Half the people who stopped were Mexicans who could not speak English. (No offense meant with using Mexican) And they'd be like "much - truck?" and I'm like "....what? " So, yeah, it gets VERY annoying.And it'll never be put to an end, considering half the manual labor workforce is built up from them. >.>

I used to play... a long long time ago. Probably nearly a year. Haven't played since, since I didn't really get it anyway.It was fun while it lasted. I may get back into it if I can find my login....

I own 3-me. =D I pretty much quit too, but here's a rsbandb.com stats sig for my account:

Guys, it's a scandisk. I'm sure of it, when you just shut off windows ME, it reboots to a scandisk, it's the same thing. I'm just not sure why it's booting that..... I doubt it's a Virus, cause scandisks don't hurt anything. It very likely could be a BIOS setting, though, and getting to your BIOS is different from each computer. (Search for "getting to BIOS" in Google then find your PC brand.)Then check the settings to see if there's anything about it.Hope it works 3-me, ma nub. <3

It's not possible to stop piracy. At all, and never will be. I dare them to try to shut down all the websites that offer that stuff. Bill Gates could use ALL of his money on Lawsuits and Lawyers and barely shut down half of them. =\

That's why I like the first one. It's one of my fave sigs. I really like how well it's blended. Once you make it out, it pops right out at you though. (It's a Fable character, just so you know.)The second one was a smudge experiment that turned out only so-so...A lot of people liked the third one. XD I think it might be the anime chick? =P That's why it won a SOTW.The last one is another one of my very favorite pieces. It's a photo manip, and made just to look really peaceful, bright, and just cool. There is no render, it's an image of a stream that I tweaked. I thought it turned out great.

AVG FTW! Yeah, I use AVG. It works as well as most payed for programs, and it's free. It also doesn't tie up your computer like the top-of-the-line ones.

Well, I started on GIMP, but all these are Photoshop. Thanks for the complements. ^.^

Wow, thanks. So far it seems like it really sped it up! The only thing I've loaded though is page 2 of this thread. <_<Thanks for the tip. (BTW, Firefox FTW!!)

That is SO not true. It used to be, but Linux has a LONG way since then. My guess is, if you aren't really stupid, you can get to know your way around Linux like the back of your hand in about the same time as it would take for XP. Not to mention it's 10x more secure, and 20x more powerful. (You can do ANYTHING from a command prompt.) Then there's the fact that nearly everything on it is FREE. Including a program that easily rivals MS Office. (OpenOffice.org) Then there's always that it looks way cooler, and has tons more stock games. =D Ubuntu will even send you a free install disc. <3 And yes, this is all coming from a Windows user. And that's because my PC doesn't have room for Linux too, and my old one runs ME, which won't dual boot with Linux very easily. >.>

Hey, I'm new here. I always introduce myself with my Graphics. Though I haven't done anything in MONTHS. =\ Oh well, this forum looks awesome, and I heard the hosting is great too. Anyway, some of my GFX: It appears Photobucket's down and I can't get to the rest. >.> I'll put em up when it gets back up. The last two are SOTW winners on one of my fave forums. (I'd post a URL, but I don't want to be in trouble for it. If it's allowed please say so and I'll post it.) Thanks for looking, I hope you like them.
