Look at the top 10 US teams on the tourny realm. There is a warlock on the #1 3v3 team.

Pinnacle Studios Help (Version 12.1)
I don't use iTunes but don't they still use DRM on their songs? If so you wouldn't be able to use it on anything outside of iTunes, including your movie.

Cirque Birds - New Tag C/C Please!
I should say that redoing signatures, most of the time, is just a waste. Just take the lessons you've learned and make sure to apply them to the next. That way it is less of "Well this guy said this should be here so I will put it here" and more of "Well, this looks bad.. so what can I do to possibly fix it for my next image?". Much more involvement on your part. Anyways the flow is very iffy and I'm not sure what exactly you've done here other than color correction and some light brushing. I'm also not sure if you are even allowed to use the image as a stock photo, although it's not like anyone here even cares about that. I would start by trying to get a more uniform color. In photoshop that would be Ctrl+B for Color Balance which will allow you to play around with the color correction for an image. This is great to get a starting idea of what you want. Like, do you want a Red/greenish image, or maybe a blue image with red highlights? From there I would apply a Curves adjustment layer, which allows you to adjust not only the contrast in general but the contrast and color settings for Red/Green/Blue. (I know curves isn't actually "contrast" but trying to explain it here without getting long lol) This will give your image a bit more contrasted look and more interesting feel to it. As far as any sort of color correction goes here is what I did in a few minutes with your B/W image. It consists of 1x Color balance layer: Mostly just Blue/Cyan adjustment 1x Curves layer: Auto adjust to start, adjust red up a bit, green down, blue up 1x Gradient Map layer: B/W gradient, set to color dodge @ 35% opacity and I kept the eye color in. So just a 5 minute retouch to show you what is possible. And... well, if you use gimp maybe someone else can translate where these things are in it.

Recent Photography / Other stuff
Photography is very nice, great color correction on them. "Other stuff" is just boring, not a fan at all.

New art thing... c/c please
Haha what? Back away from the filters Hawk. Or, at least, try and make them more subtle. The image is also very contrasted and has no real flow or focal. Not to mention the text is crazy annoying (I don't want to tilt my head to read what you're trying to say. There is no reason to do that. If you want vertical text make it actually vertical, don't just make the text and rotate it 90 degrees. The background is probably the biggest offender for contrast though. It just has no smoothness, it's very rough and "harsh" ... for a lack of any better words.

Yeah I read both of them. 3hgcy6bsg4g An actually good WoW music video? Singing is actually pretty good in this one. The male singer is the same guy who did :D

Yeah it didn't help that I really had to piss near the end of that chain (drank an entire 20oz coke) but didn't want to miss anything. Haha :lol:

What music do you guys listen to?
Wait, you're only 16 Silver? I pictured you around 20-22. I do agree with you though Blue. I noticed too that as I'm getting older I've been branching out my tastes more.

What are you listening to right now!?
Bathory's Nordlands I + II albums I've been in a huge Bathory mood recently.

Filefront closes operations on March 30
No it wasn't.

Portfolio website WIP#2 Version 2 up!
Like I already said I didn't mean for it to be bold, was running out of time in class. :)
-
What would you have done?
You did the right thing. :thumbup: I want to say I'd return it, because I have lost some electronics in the past (back in high school I lost my gameboy SP.. never got returned of course.) and it always sucks.

About [bleep]ing time, the 2H from H:HoL finally dropped. Now my only blue items left are my Shoulders and Pants. The Shoulders I will replace either once my naxx25 finishes this weekend or next week (Need 4 more badges) and pants... well I'll find some I'm sure. :)

Lol I like out dpsing an entire PUG naxx25 as a Fury warrior with 600 resil (PvP gear). Was averaging 3000-3500dps per most bosses, 2800dps on patch (no extra rage) and 4500dps on Lotheb. :) Had just a perfect group for it, DK, paladins, feral druid (+ bleed damage, +crit), rogue (+crit poison). Was nice. 3500ap,233hit,28.6% crit, 623 resil, 22400hp unbuffed now in PvP gear. Got my Val chest tonight, and we stopped at military wing (going to pick it up sunday). Shaman roomate also got a new shoulders, chest and the spell power fist today. :P
- Rap

What music do you guys listen to?
Good music. No, really, I don't know if I want to associate myself with a specific genre anymore. I can name something from just about any genre that I enjoy, and I am always willing to try something new out and explore various styles. While I would be lying if I didn't say that my playlist does contain mostly Metal and Rock I have been branching out to numerous genres recently. I really want to get some more rap/hip-hop, but I've been real lazy about getting around to it. Really though I can't really see how someone can limit themselves so much to once specific genre. It just seems sort of childish really.

What are you listening to right now!?
Bathory's Twilight Of The Gods - Through Blood By Thunder - Blood And Iron 3 part song all rolled into one, 30 minute, masterpiece. Probably one of the most epic metal songs ever made. :thumbup:

Burt's Bees.
Agreed. I just don't like the feel of lotion. :P

Video Card Choice
It's not a personal preference really man, HD4870 blows two 9800GT's out of the water (and 9800GT's are really just beefed up 8800GT's, where the HD4870 can go toe to toe with the GTX280 in some extreme cases). Plus keep in mind that not all games are going to take advantage of both 9800GT's.

Lagging while using HD
I paid $1,100USD for mine (Got at best buy) and my laptop can run crysis @ all highs. I would return it and shop around, possibly just order from newegg.

Portfolio website WIP#2 Version 2 up!
Yeah I didn't mean it to be bold. By the time I realized class was out, so I'll fix it next week lol. Chances are it will just be an HTML/CSS project, as Flash may be out of range for this project. I wouldn't mind using some flash for the image thumbnails though. @littleboy: yeah I'm not really sure if the text was final or not. I just wanted to fill some space. I'll experiment around. :)
