I'm not a fan of the red coming in from the right, and the lens flare doesn't compliment the image. And the blue just takes the excitement out of the photo. Other than that nice composition - should look nice when you're done. And you used 3 images? Well you've blended them well to look like one!

You can PM a Mod/Admin if you are unsure whether your post will violate the forum rules :thumbup:

It's definitely worth going there for more than a weekend. I travel up about once a week for shopping/gigs and it's well worth it. Just google it tbh - depends what you're into, there's something for everyone. - Tower of London/Museums/London Eye/London Dungeon/Madame Tussuads/St Paul's Cathedral are just a few attractions off the top of my head. I usually just spend the day bombing around Camden, you can spend a whole day there just chilling out, taking photos, buying crappy clothes, buying all sorts of cheap food and 9/10 there's a decent band on at a local pub/venue. Good luck with your gf

It was hard to come up with something funny bearing in mind this is a G-rated forum <_<

Nice rendering, looks sweet.

Today i was asked to photograph an event at college. Each local candidate for 3 main parties were battling it out to win over a packed theatre full of students. I was chatting at the end to the labour candidate, and he asked me what party i liked the most and why. When i said BNP, he just replied "Fair enough, they get miles more stick than they deserve" Thought that was pretty funny, and it was defiantly more of a sympathetic response than I was expecting. Shant go into my choice as i'm sure flaming would occur.... Each to their own :wink:

Congratulations, thanks for the good work - keep it up!

Wait till the ticket prices come out :roll: I went to a lord of the rings convention at alexandra palace when i was younger, only because my mum got free tickets. I'm sure it will be a similar sort of thing, people dress up in costumes they can't fit in, desparate to find the nearest mcdonalds. And the people who don't make their own costumes will be dressed up in the latest Runescape Merch :geek: The only reason i would want to go is to see how they model figures with their own game engine. I mean, seriously, i've played the game for several years and it's good stress relief come the evenings but are there really people that obsessed with it? I just think it's really, really sad that people would go to a "RuneFest". ...It's good to reach out to the community though. (Trying not to troll the game i play #-o )

buy one of each bronze/iron/steel item on the g/e

Am i the only one who doesn't care about this? The site is a great hub for information/help about the game - i can't believe how upset everyone is getting. If you think tipit is better than RScommunity and RuneHQ why does it matter that Jagex has to agree with you... just carry on as you were.

There are another 2 parts to that video - well worth a watch. In these parts of the world, culture is very important and people want a male baby to keep the family name - this is one of the reasons China had so many babies (and it is true for India) The idea behind the one child policy is good, and it has been successful in China. The methods about enforcing the rule could have been a bit formal as rules/fines were found to be stricter/more relaxed in certain provinces. There is a low literacy rate in India. As India is an agriculturist country, most of the people living in the rural part of India are subsistence farmers. These farmers have little or no education at all. They live in large families, sometimes in joint, where four or five children are common. Schools are overcrowded. What China realised was that if they have half the number of children going to school, they all get a better education as help is more concentrated on the children the country does have. The whole ethos behind it all was to create a very powerful nation, but it has done far more for that for China today. Without the policy, a Malthusian disaster would have certainly been in China's midst, coupled with the fact that building/infrastructure was growing so fast networks were not being built properly. Remember the 2008 Sichuan earthquake? It killed many people due to unsafe building construction - earthquakes are very common too, as Asia is a region of much seismic activity. What i'm trying to say is things would have only got worse for them without the policy. So i think introducing a similar thing in India would be great, they are already developing serious problems. What China did well in was the educational, housing and healthcare benefits that came to couples who kept to the policy, and the punishments that came to the same factors if the rule was broken. India would have a hell of a job to do, especially with the millions of people living in slums - there would be no way to control people there.

Anyone going this year? Above picture is for Reading festival but the lineup for Leeds is the same, just on different days. Couple of big names this year, GnR, Blink 182 and The Libertines. I'm a sucker for blink personally but would love to see the others.

Hey Jude by The Beatles? edit:should have read OP properly - sorry.

I don't classify 'bad music' as music, it's more of an irritating noise.

I don't think i'm going to bother with this whole weekend, the only reason i play is for fun - so i don't really want to get captivated into all the special advantages Jagex do. They said they will do more days like this though, so chances are i'll buy summoning 2nds/raw materials etc... when they crash, and sell when people panic buy for them :)

...But anything could be justified as art. Which is fine, although this forum could be full of a lot of spam - i guess i might be the only one interpreting it that way though. (Also i thought we were trying to make the gallery less of a niche? - by removing the 'cliqueyness' as it were?) "Discuss critically the creative process"... ~ The meal you made for your family last night ~ The way you tied your shoelaces today ~ The paper aeroplane you made in math ~ The pattern you got on your toast as your spread the marmite ~ The way you wrote your signature on the back of your credit card ~ The song you wrote about your deceased hamster So, with all the above being a creative purpose - they would be perfectly acceptable topics in the gallery? Someone please clear this up, i think a line has to be drawn...

Nice playing, but surely this doesn't belong in the gallery. Sure, music is art to some people. But is there anything that isn't art nowadays?? Some people even say photography isn't art, and that's more graphic based than a music video... The gallery should be for graphic related art ie, siggies, avatars, photos, drawings, paintings etc... But then again where do you draw the line? (no pun intended) Surely wherever the line is drawn this still belongs in the off topic trivial/youtube links, or even in the music movies and tv section. If not i'll start posting up some drumming solos then shall i? Sent using my Nokia E63 device.

That is exactly why i listen to XFM in the mornings ;)

I've had this offer in the exchange since early November - it shows much much these things don't sell. I was hoping to post a picture when i reached 50k but the prices rose suddenly... for the first time in months lol. I was only 32 off..... DAAAYYMM!

You don't have to answer if you don't want to, i'm just interested into how prices have changed. I noticed recently on the new log in screens Jagex offer Runescape membership from as little as $5.95 USD per month (translates into £3.95 GBP for me) However i only pay £3.20... ($4.82) After further investigation Jagex sells 12 month membership cards which cost $5 a month, plus i'm sure i always see new payment methods - pay by phone/text etc... So how much do you pay? (Hush now P-Mods :P)

Awesome - Nice work. I really like the colours and the detail in the background :)

use a bank pin ;) If u give me a PM i'll give you some cash or some rune tools to help you on your way

Anyone know the reason for the rise in santas, masks etc...? I sold my santa at 58mil thinking it would crash soon then i could rebuy it - bad move?

Haven't played since before christmas - only to check MTK. Somehow my BOB is now over 100mil... even though i bought claws at 38.5mil lol
