Hm, once when I was about 13 or 14, I messed with a kid at this really bad school I was going to at the time (in Tennessee) and he threatened to kill me. I thought nothing of it, but a friend of mine went and reported him the next day. Turned out he had a loaded pistol in his locker, loaded, with extra ammo in his backpack. Guess I owe my life to my friend, right?

No problem.@Nils -- Isn't that what the Vent is for? She bleeped all the bad words, and it was just letting off some steam...but I'm not disagreeing with you at all.

Speaking of which Nate, have you found any staff for yours yet?

Looks okay, but I HIGHLY doubt it's real. I don't think Microsoft would make it that odd whitish color, and the picture's too grainy to be anything official. And it's not going to be called Xbox 2, it'll be the Xenon. AND I don't think they would make it have the same exact design only slimmer.@GGG - Are you kidding me? Yeah, the PS2 looks better than the Xbox, but they both look stupid.

Yes, you did everything perfectly. And it probably won't take the whole 2 days, mine was relocated from my previous host after an hour or two.

Mine opens pdfs really slowly, but it works, after a minute or two. It's not supposed to open it up -in- firefox though, if that's what you're trying to do. It should open in Adobe Acrobat/Reader.

Ooh, I like you. =PThat is pretty lame. But hey, don't worry about it too much...I don't think anyone really cares about rep anyways.I did put it back to 0 for you though. Hope that cheers you up. ^-^

Heh, that's cool. Girls are more fun to play paintball with. They don't keep shooting after you're hit. I used to play a lot with an old class of mine on weekends, and believe me, they made SURE I was out. Plus playing paintball is a GREAT date. =PYeah so, I used to play, but not anymore. I don't have my own stuff though, I always rented. But I wouldn't have time to go, and I dunno anyone that would go with me. I would if I did though.

Hiya Nate.I think that FFX is a great game, but my favorite RPG of all time is Phantasy Star Online Ep. I and II. If you haven't played it, you should try it out. Not everyone will like it, but I know I do. I don't feel like elaborating any more on FFX or PSO, so I'll just leave it there.

Google pwns Yahoo. Nuff said. This fact is non-negiotable, and not subject to change. ^-^

I was .EXE for my file extension - something about being familiar and useful to many.And for my os I was Amiga - plenty of potential, ahead of my time, but my parents didn't give me many opportunities.I'd say the OS fits the bill almost exactly. I dunno about my file extension though. I've never had a friend that I've known for more than 3 years of my life (because I move so much), so I'm not really that familiar to many people. And I'm lazy, and so I'm not really useful either.

Well, not everyone pays for it. Experimental or not, I've heard from people who have used beta runs of CS2, and they say it's amazing.Plus, doesn't it have imageready and acrobat built in or somethin like that? That's not bad to have.

I'm a Deist, so um....yeah....

Newp. Adobe website says:

Hehe, I've suggested a new forum layout which might be put through soon, and in that, there is a request forum. So yeah, that might be coming soon, if the admins approve and such.And yes, I totally agree. It's better to let everyone try out. That way people can pick and choose which they like best.

I'm almost 17, and still kind of a nerd (Computers, video games, card games, and comics are basically my life), but I don't think I look like one. I'm not short and skinny anymore. ^-^ But I don't really think that matters. I think it depends on what the girl is interested in.I'm not going to be an idiot and lie about something so trivial, so I've only had one girlfriend, and it didn't last for that long. I can talk to girls just fine, but I tend to paralyze a bit when trying to ask them out or whatever.I used to be a dork about girls, but now I don't really care. If they really like me, they can show me that. I'm not going to bother chasing after a girl I'd never have a chance with anyway.There are these two girls that I'm kinda interested in. One's kinda like the girl next door, cute, smart, funny, whatever, and the other is like, the perfect girl, and I'm friends with her, but I doubt I'd have a chance for a date.And I'm still kinda new here, so it's one of those situations where you don't really know people well enough.

Oh, that's odd, for me it won't let me. But I'm using one of the overnight builds, so that might affect something. You are using firefox, right? @ bureX -- Please don't post tips if they've already been posted. Thanks.

The only better version is CS, and the features for it aren't really enough to be worth another 350 if you already have 7. I'd say save your money for CS2.

Yeah. It might help if you at least explained a bit before asking for requests...X.x

@clagnol - actually, try visiting integramod.com in firefox. no right clicking. and yes, you could do the source thing, but not for images in a shockwave/flash movie.@sandymc - you'd be surprised how many people don't know what the buttons do on their keyboard, or mouse, or computer in general. I still dunno what to use my Turbo button for, or the Pause Break button.

No problem. I love helping new artists.Anyways, you don't have to use black and white. Like I said, feel free to experiment. If you use different colors, and then use Colorize later though, it'll essentially still be the same result. It'll all be shades of one hue, as that's what the Colorize feature does.Hope that helps.

Yeah, President Hoover tried that "help the rich and it'll trickle down" method, and look where it got us? Even deeper in the Great Depression. You have to help the needy first. You can't just stuff so much money into rich people's pockets that hopefully some will fall back out to the little people. Rich people have really deep pockets. And about the whole funding in general, education should be higher on the government's priority list. Why it isn't, I don't know. If the schools don't have enough money to teach, then the US will simply stay at a certain level of education, and we'll no longer be able to advance. Children are our future, but if those children are stupid, our future is shady, at best. X.x

I'd give it a 6. The brushing could use some work, the render could be blended a little, and you could get a better font. But like you said, definitely not bad for a 12 year old. I was doing similar (or worse) stuff when I was 12.

Looks decent I guess, but you might want to supply more samples.

Hm...like iwuvcookies said, you can't really compare honey BBQ wings to a Big Mac. I love both equally though. But I can't stand on-the-bone chicken, and I can't stand anything from Mickey D's that isn't a burger or fries. But that's just me. ^-^
