Haven't really taken many photos lately, but I did like how these turned out. I'm not linking straight to the photos cause I want to show off a cool plugin I got for my site :). Plus it's actually easier to view them this way in my opinion. http://www.phantom-mullet.com/?p=11 Comments/Critiques always welcome, but I'm very amateur at photography so there's not much taken into consideration when I take a photo.

Honestly sites like myspace and purevolume. As much as I hate myspace it seems to be working for all the emo bands. The same goes to purevolume, but atleast it's only focus is music. I'm assuming you already knew these though :P.

Or, they maybe wouldn't be in debt if everyone bought albums, instead of downloading music... Or how about the reason they are in debt is from touring so much? They charged their fans nothing most of the time or such a little amount it didn't help.

Heh, thanks for the article. Wow that's an amazing coincidence. This is exactly what I was talking about too.

Love to help you out, but the file expired. And I'm assuming you know already, but I'm flat out disagreeing with the suggestions of Linkin Park and AFI. They are both awful vocalists. Insane took my suggestion just based on what you've said since I can't listen to the file. You could always listen to Five Iron Frenzy - On Distant Shores some more :D. Granted Reese sings with so much emotion in their songs so if you want me to suggest some more of that type.

So I haven't heard anything from a band I've been digging for a while and come to find out they had to stop touring and any album work because they were so far in debt. They are currently working blue-collar jobs just to pay back the debt so they can try and get back to music. Dedication. Anyway, I realized if I was in the right financial situation I'd pretty much give them whatever money they needed to fund their endeavours (sp?) from here on out. So my question is, does anyone know of this happening where some individual or company outside of the music business has funded a band because they liked them so much? If I had a million dollars to give I would give, assuming I would be able to hang with them some and such.

Does Mae have any talent? I can't seem to find it anywhere... :P In all seriousness, they're alright. It was funny cause last spring break we were chilling with some girls we had just met and one of them asks if anyone had heard of Mae before and so I responded yeah and she litterally flipped out. It's like this girl thought they were her band and no one else would know of them. Okay, so it's not a good story to tell but funny at the time.

How exactly are you doing this? There shouldn't be any of those jaggies. Vectors are smooth and this is far from it.

What does that do? I actually did download the album p2p, but my dad owns the cd. He just took it with him out of town and I wanted it here and now so I figured it was "okay" since we did own it.

I have a cd I'm trying to put into iTunes. I just added the folder like normal and 3 of the songs didn't get added. I tried doing them manually and they still didn't want to comply. I then tried the songs each in WMP and they all work fine. Any clues as to why iTunes is rejecting them? It doesn't give me any kind of alert so I'm clueless, they just don't show up. Thanks

How does this deserve it's own post? It was lame. Was I supposed to laugh or just be entertained? I saw this on tv the other day and just changed the channel it was so stupid.

Gamespot says Q3 of 2006 I want to know if it's gonna be available on Mac too or just Windows..

I wonder if it's procedurally generated? Honestly, this does look it could be the best game ever. The micro management like you guys stated could be tedious and annoying, but this video just makes it look so cool.

Respect for the effort I'm sure you put into all this, but I can say honestly I'm just not interested in watching the videos. That's just me of course, but that's why I hadn't commented and could go for others. Plus it's hassle to even try and watch most of them.

This is very cool, I don't have the tools to try it out, but it sounds great. Google Running Logs

I always thought the original prediction was a big war in 2005, so by now I figured it was all rubbish. Are you sure it's 2008?

I made sure to mention that some were oldies ;). I'm getting blasted at another forum for posting this so nice to see some good-humored people here.

I've compiled a list of things I do with friends to help relieve us of boredom during class and school in general. Read Here

That was my original thought to, but I've been told the kid who got arrested for pulling the fire alarm so it obviously was someone.

No, I'm not kidding you. Here are the steps I took: 1. Image > Image Size > 640x480 2. Image > Adjustments > Auto Contrast 3. Image > Adjustments > Levels Here's the original : http://img424.imageshack.us/img424/4467/tennisballoriginal9iq.png Yes, they look different, but I don't feel I did enough Post-editing for it to be a photo manip. I'm sorry if you disagree. TJ - thanks for the great critique :). Same for you mrx. Can you please show me where I said anything negative regarding any of the pictures you posted? Or where I said that if you manipulate a picture that you take it doesn't count as a picture? Altogether I feel it's a pretty crappy composition (tennis ball) but the picture looks pretty interesting. If you had in fact photographed that with no post work, I was going to ask you how you had your camera setup. I've been doing alot of photography lately and was interested as to how I could possibly get a look like that on some of the pictures I'm taking. I thought maybe you used a filter on your camera. Relax, nobody is out to get you. We all know what happens when you assume, and this is a perfect example. I'll admit I did assume and that was my fault. I guess your sarcastic comments towards others in the past made me get aggressive which I shouldn't have done. I apologize and won't do it again. Unfortunately, I'm completely at the beginning of learning photography so I woudl have no clue how to achieve that without post work. If you happen to find out shoot me a note.

Article You can read about feelings on it all and then the news article there. In summation, the student body held a walkout because one of our janitors got fired. Pretty much want to see what people think about it all.

Hey, no probs :). That actually looks like a painting :shock:

Funny how you and I post some and then bam, a trend! Great picture though :).

I have a feeling you're trying to discreetly imply that I manipped the [cabbage] out of the tennis ball photo which isn't true. I only did some changes in the levels of the photograph. If you reply again asking for the original or someone else wants it I'll post, but if you're just trying to make a point then it's not worth my time. Thanks for all the great feedback :).
