its more than 3 it says on the main page, it only says 10+ is reccomended. well, my site was suspended for inactivity, but then went back on to a nice bandwidth exceeded error (when i just checked it yesterday and it was somewhere around 1020mb) it is also the first of the month. so either way this should be fixed soon. EDIT:: and my cpanel from both nexdesigns.trap17.com and Xisto.com wont log in and i do have the correct pass and username.

ouch, i deal with .rar archives all day, i have people constantly sending me stuff for skinning, design, etc, and i even got a virus off msn (.pif one)

quite nice, i like it, good job, i wish i could actually code a layout correctly, instead i spend hours debugging something that is fixed with one line of code, lol well with php anyway...

very useful for those who are unexperienced with patterns and how to make them.I like how you used the same image to show the different effcts instad of trying to make each one look good and different, it shows it for what they really are.I say 7/10 for this tut

yeah, you need pictures for people to understand it fully, they have to see what they are doing.i suggest using pictures, and whats with the "The result of using this filter can be seen on the picture below." and no picture? did you forget to link it or did you copy it?

i love the part when you can take out a chainsaw and beat up someones car, and a bat too, hehei love how you can almost do anything in it, that makes you not get tired of it because you can always try something new.i only played it once on ps2, but i loved it.

thanks i will look it up and try it out.so i can run it from a windows running PC, with apache running on it, and i might be able to set up a domain that way?

i am not experienced with servers, but is it possible to host your own domain from your own server?also, what are the programs and files needed for setting up a webserver?

I just traded in an hp ipaq 3455 for an hp ipaq rx3700 with a camera, remote, and digital media software.this little thing rocks!

Firefox is way better, with the tabbed browsing, and the download manager, plus the plugins and skins for it, IE could use more improvement.I have used firefox for about 2 weeks now, and i wont switch back.

i just checked all my computers and found many viruses on all of them, i suggest using trend micro because all my installed antivirus software didnt see it.

I think my goal is to be closer with my g/f, to be the best i can at design, and also to start a career in stage props, rigging, lighting, and setup. (which is what i do 2 times a year right now)i want to kill all my friends for stealing my stuff, and then go party at universal orlando (which is only 30 minutes from my house)

I just bought hosting, but it was for a client i have and am doing a site for.4.95 a month for domain and hosting, it has everything Xisto has, but no mysql database and no cpanel.

Im not sure if it effects the trillian contacts, but it will crash your computer on anything you use, and if you click the link on this page it will do it, i might test it on one of my older computers that i dont use to see what it does.

I dont know of any tutorials on it, but i might be able to write one on it.i will as soon as i get time.

not sure, from what i see just anyone who clicked on it, sent it to everyone on their buddylist, and then crashed.One solution is you can use system restore, that seems to work well.and it worked on msn 7 and msn 6.

ive got it too, the mysql server might be down or something. might have something to do with the new virus going around.I think these forums are on another database server.

I have just had about 5 contacts send me a link in about 2 minutes and then their computer crash right afterwards. Im not positive if it is a virus, but the file extention tells me it is. g.geurts1/handcuffs.pif Be cautious around these files, they may be harmful to your computer, so ask before you click! Ive heard that it is an automated program that send out the links through your buddylist and then crashes your computer.

Sorry, posted wrong tutorial before, this one is the right one. >_>

In this tutorial I will show you how to make a border for your sig or avatar. Step 1:: Open up your image you want to add the border to, and create a new layer above all others. Step 2:: With the new layer selected, fill it with pure white, and then go to Edit > Stroke and use these settings Width:: 3 PX Color:: Any Dark Color Location:: Inside Step 3:: Now go back to Edit > Stroke, And use these settings Width:: 2 PX Color:: White Location:: Inside Step 4:: Now go back to the stroke settings one more time, and this time use these settings, Width:: 1 PX Color:: Black or a very dark color Location:: Inside Now this is what we should have by now, Step 5:: We have our border, but now the image isnt showing, well, this is why we chose the color white, Go to the layers tab and set the blending mode to darken. This should be the final effect, If it is not then go back over the steps to see where you went wrong. Other Results using the same method.

Sometimes i do depending on what is needed and how much time i have.Right now i am working with a mod team for Tiberian Aftermath but i sometimes do other things aswell.

im guessing english isnt your first language, no offence of course. im still learning german myself, so anyway.If i understand correctly you are saying that you clicked something and your credits went from 7 to 2?that doesnt sound right, what did you click?*on an off note ur sig is looking at me, it wont stop staring, its starting to creep me out, but its 3:30 in the morning so im a little 'off' atm... lol

In this tutorial I will show you how to make a simple metal background, great for making sigs. Step 1: Create a new document of any size, set your foreground colour to #555755, and your background colour to #3C3C3C. Now create a nice texturing effect by selecting Filter > Render > Clouds from the menu. Step 2: Time to add a bit more of a texture, so, this time use Filter > Artistic > Sponge, with the following settings: Brush Size: 0 Definition: 0 Smoothness: 1 And then run Image > Adjustments > Brightness/Contrast, with these settings. Or just play around with them to get an effect that best suits your needs. Brightness: -15 Contrast: - 65 Step 3: Looking good huh? Not quite right though, so lets add some realism to the metal by creating a slight highlight across your texture. In this case, it is perhaps best to use the dodge and burn tools with the brush size set to 300px, and the exposure set to 15-20%. Remember to customize to your needs. Add some details in the shadowing / lighting. Step 4: Now add a few scratches. You can do this with grunge-style brushes available here, or by selecting the burn tool again with a brush size of 1px and an exposure of 15%. Draw as many as you like. Be sure to make your damage subtle, you dont want it to stand out too much or it will distract form the whole effect. don't let the exposure level go any higher than 25%. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Step 5: Grab an ice cold pepsi and relax! You're Done! Just add some rust, text, pictures, whatever you want! Here is my finished product.

EDIT:: this thing has only gotten one view? and no comments? if this keeps up im not posting tutorials anymore.

I have a deviantart page but i have not updated it in a long while so there isnt much there, http://nexdesigns.deviantart.com/ soon i will completely abandon that for my own site once it is done. Its good to see there are other artists other than me lurking these forums
