I won the Apple Design Award. Who's up for a party?
Haha nah I didn't mean it like that Avanor. I just still remember you back when you started, never would have figured you'd get so good. :P

How do I make money...
It's not that big of a deal. Then again my name is my website, so go figure. I wouldn't try and sell the photos personally, just because it'd be better to just have a chance at exposure.

Never would have thought you would have gotten so far. Great job man. :thumbup:

[PROTOTYPE] - Official Topic
I did read a review that said some parts are pretty difficult. I've had a few moments at the beginning where I've died, but once you know when to consume to get HP it's not as bad. Anyways after playing a bit more I'm starting to like the game more, def think it's a 4/5 game. I turned the target system to toggle instead of hold and that helped, although it can still be a little random it is easier to guide the targeting. The combat does take getting used to though, but they give you a TON of [cabbage] to do. Also the whip mutation is awesome. Dominates helicopters.

Okay college students/alums---fraternities, yay or nay?
Most of the frats at my college are the pretty sterotypical frat "bros" just partying every night, so I'm not in one.

[PROTOTYPE] - Official Topic
Alright, here is my brief opinion of the game after playing it for about an hour or so. GOOD: - Moving around the city is a lot of fun. You can scale anything and once you get the glide power it's really fast, feels cool. - So far missions haven't been too bad, although I failed a few times because I didn't really understand. (there are multiple ways to each mission usually. On one mission I could either impersonate a guard and call out an "all clear" to get this guy out of a tank, or I could steal a rocket launcher and blow up the tank to get him out). I've only done a few missions though. - Seems like a lot of side missions to do like in crackdown. BAD: - Targeting system for combat feels very clunky. Like it targets whoever the game damn well pleases, and moving targets around doesn't really work in a very orderly fashion (and it's even worse when you have like 20 dudes shooting at you to get precision on the one BIG boss guy you need to kill) - Combat is pretty iffy in the beginning, partly due to targeting system. Once I got the claw upgrade it seemed better, but still I feel like the combat could be better (or I may just have to get used to it). - Cutscenes sort of suck. I mean, I watched them for a while and then just started skipping them. The dialogue is pretty iffy to be honest and the story seems sort of lame so far. Not to mention the cutscenes look very low-def where as the game world actually looks pretty good. - Sometimes the game seems to try and lead you to certain things to much, control wise. Like a lot of it feels automated at times, it is sort of annoying to get used to. I do think it will be nice when you get used to it though, like you will automaticly jump over small obstacles and stuff when sprinting, but I'm just used to jumping and I end up doing all sort of weird [wagon] [cabbage]. Right now I'm leaning towards like 3/5 or 4/5 for the game, depending on how it pans out with more powers. I think I'll enjoy it but I'm pretty glad I just downloaded it, not sure if I would want to spend $50 on this. Also I should say that with the controls I'm using the 360 controller for my PC.

Porfolio re-imaging: SITE PREVIEW IS UP WITH DOCK
Yeah I think I can increase the speed of it, I'll be sure to do that. I think so, didn't check.

Anawati - my first typo
What does Anawati mean, anything? Anyways I think it's awesome. Great textures and vector work. Only real crit is the 3rd A (second small A by the T) seems a bit disconnected from the rest of the word. Still, very nice. :thumbup:

Meh, the age part was just explaining why alcohol is legal. However legalizing marijuana is only going to add to the indirect deaths alcohol causes. I'd prefer you try and back that up. Wouldn't you assume those who abuse marijuana to the point of it causing (or indirectly causing) death would already be abusing it, legal or not?
-

It is still less harmful than both alcohol and cigarettes, both which are legal. Your argument made no sense because meth, heroin and other hard drugs are much more dangerous than alcohol, cigarettes or weed. The point is there is no reason not to have marijuana illegal when alcohol and cigarettes are legal. And yes, when abused I'm very sure that it has side effects, just like when you abuse alcohol, or smoking or anything else. Making something illegal on the basis that someone will abuse it is stupid, because people can abuse anything. That doesn't make any sense at all riku.

New tag + Apology
Not a fan of the colors. I understand what you were trying to do but it just looks very muddled and blah. And why are you apologizing for not being around? haha.

Yeah that's totally not a strawman. Lol if we legalize pot then we should legalize meth and heroine! :roll: Why is it I've never heard a good argument for marijuana illegality. Most of them resort to either strawmans or spouting off uninformed "facts" about the drug. Of course I guess it shows that all of those D.A.R.E programs and such are working by brainwashing these kids who think it's comparable to meth.

i think its time for a new laptop
That MSI Joe linked is really nice, pretty close to my laptops specs. (except mine has 4GB DDR3 instead of DDR2). Considering mine can run Crysis on medium/high settings fine I think it'd be a nice choice, even if it might be a little overkill for counter strike and Runescape. :thumbup:

What do you mean? It works fine if I just run the site from my PC, but if I run the site from my host none of the javascript works. I've got the js files and stuff all in the right places. edit: got it working now. www.zackcerny.com Example of the dock in action.

[How to convince someone to get a new internet browser]
Yeah get a new browser, I couldn't even imagine people even try and support IE6 in web development anymore (I know I wouldn't bother).

Must be some EVE Players here...
It is a very large game and very sandboxy so maybe that is what you meant. Still though on the grind issue you're completely wrong.
-
Must be some EVE Players here...
Like I said though, I'd play EVE forever if the combat didn't bore me to tears. Clearly it isn't my type of game, but I wish it was more like Wing Commander or some other space sim gameplay. Of course that is why I'm looking forward to Jumpgate:Evolution. You don't have to be online to level Ray. There is nothing grindy about the game at all. And it hardly has any PvM worth mentioning. You really have no clue, do you.

You both know you don't actually grind in EVE right? Levels are obtained over time.

Depends if you have a motherboard that supports DDR/DDR2 (or I guess DDR3, but I doubt it) and it also depends on how much your motherboard supports. 4GB (usually 2x2GB sticks) is like $35 these days, cheap as [cabbage]. Unless you have a dinosaur motherboard in which you'll pay more for DDR.
