  1. heh, thanks. it took a long time, that's for sure. i only wish i had spent more time on it initially so it hadn't dragged on as long as it did.
  2. hey judges, i think avaris and i pm'd you about this three or four times a few months ago, but we pulled our mixes off of super dodge ball because it's been so long since anything happened. so you can move them to the normal post queue. thanks. and, larry, that interview thing that i was musicing for...it's STILL done.
  3. i meant it more as a representative thing, i know paint doesn't save in .ico format, but you don't need a 500$ program to make them. and wait, are you saying that selling icons will make more money than making art with photoshop? or that enough people make icons to actually justify even having this argument? how the hell does that work? i'm not saying format compatibility is bad, but why would you go with a lesser version of a program just so you could get a few more somewhat esoteric filetypes? what i WAS pointing out is that you don't go into graphics design to work in the shitty free version of photoshop, you work WITH photoshop. can you imagine walking into a design firm and saying that you don't know photoshop, i just know gimp? they'll throw you out on your ass. it's like showing up as a musician to a gig and saying that you only know how to communicate by whispering, not talking. you still get the point across, but there's SO MUCH MORE out there that you can't take advantage of because you haven't taken the time to figure it out.
  4. who gets 708 posts in a project board?
  5. i used it as my torrent drive for a long time, but it gets warmer and warmer. i only switch it on for backup now.
  6. gimp isn't anywhere near photoshop. no offense, but who cares about .ico files? you don't make icons with photoshop, you make them with paint. you make high-end graphics projects that earn you money with photoshop.
  7. i agree with this. we were basically required to have finale or sibelius during undergrad, but as musicians who have to buy upwards of six hundred dollars a semester in music (not to mention at least that much in books) when most of us don't have jobs, it's really tough to save up the cash for a program like that. and houghton didn't supply any sort of discount through a tech program of any kind.
  8. again, like i said. pay cash for just about everything. my parents did it, my wife's parents did it. it's completely doable. also, like i said, the importance of credit scores are highly overrated. you can get by in life by just having what you need without buying on credit all the time.
  9. *shrug* i'd open it until i get my credit to my account, spend it, and then close it. four months, tops. credit scores are generated crap, anyways. if you hold down a job - any job - your credit will 'resurrect' itself within five years. it's all garbage to force you into doing things you wouldn't normally do. pay with cash, that's what i do - cash and debit cards. my wife has a credit card we use for gas and 'just-in-case', and that's it.
  10. well, since it's only a credit and not a chargeback, you could use that 200$ to buy games. in two months.
  11. http://gamerdeals.net/blogs/cheap-ps3/archive/2009/03/11/sony-offers-200-credit-on-349-purchase-w-sony-card-thursday-saturday-only.aspx you've gotta get approved (instantly) for a sony credit card. you get 200$ credit on any purchase over 349, including ps3s. there's a catch, of course - the 200$ isn't posted to your account for 8-12 weeks, and then it's only as a credit to the card, to entice you to buy more games. but if you can wait the 2 months for the credit, you'll get a ton of money back. it's only thursday through saturday. so, if you want one, get on it.
  12. a friend of mine has a tri-monitor setup with a logi g5 mouse. you can change the sensitivity on the fly by hitting a button. he likes it.
  13. that's a good point. let vista attempt to 'fix' the drive and clean it up. there's a chance it'll fix it. probably not, but it's worth trying out.
  14. hooray for fallout! i mean, cerrax!
  15. you've already got a 'the o*' model on the shtyjdgbot panel. get creative! you don't have anyone with their real name on there. vote for xjesse!
  16. try restarting. it'll free up some of the crap that gets locked in during the normal course of working on a system. oh, you need a computer...?
  17. no single application can load more than 2 gigs of ram into itself. it's gotta outsource it, similar to chrome's tab=process style. the errors start around 1800 megs, in my experience. learned that one the other day when my fl was erroring out. there's a workaround hack that'll expand it to 3 gigs but you risk bricking your windows installation if you dick it up.
  18. and with that, the main body of this project is done. 63 pages or so. editing time! sengin, where are you...?' edit: quintuple post, haha!
  19. happy bday, sgx. i think bladiator doesn't age, he just grows taller and bigger like koloss or something. but i haven't seen his skin rip yet, and he's not blue, so the spikes are in a different spot.
  20. fine with me. not like i couldn't play anything that you put in front of me. i'm fairly certain that fx are frowned upon since they're from a licensed source. pm a judge, they're not doing anything else.
