    Live Concerts

    That's just right down the street from me, this show was at the University of Minnesota, I love in minneapolis. He was using the tambourine and the maraca to play the drums on a couple songs. I have a picture, I'll post when I get back to my computer EDIT: here [hide][/hide]
  2. Someone will explain this better than me later, but the jeans we're talking about are raw denim. They haven't been washed or pre-treated at all by the company that sells them (APC for these). They aren't dyed, but have indigo for color instead. As you wear them, they stretch and fit to your body, and the indigo wears off in areas of high use/contact. They're basically personalized. I wore mine every single day for about 8 months straight. They just don't seem to get as dirty. If they ever do get smelly, you can put them in the freezer to kill the bacteria. That never happened to me though. When you wash them, it takes away a lot of the indigo, making the fades/contrasts not as good, and also harder to fade more in the future. Here's them brand new
  3. Yeah I like the contrast in them. Right after I took this picture and washed them (by soaking in the sink with cold water and Woolite Extra Dark) the thighs and legs brightened up a bunch. My phone goes in the pocket with the hole, wallet in the other. The crotch (at first I wrote "My Crotch" but that sounded funny :P) is wearing pretty bad too, almost have a hole.

    Live Concerts

    The Head and the Heart was on my campus today. It was the first live concert I've ever been to, and it was amazing! They sound even better than they do on CD, it was a lot more energetic. [hide][/hide]
  5. Here's my APC jeans after about a year. I didn't want to wash them at all, but I got a little too drunk, which made me have to wash them after about 6 months :unsure: I also washed them right after I took these pics. Sorry for the bad iphone picture :(
  6. Hi :) Thanks for the short guide, I'll get on it.
  7. Thank you, good to know I don't have to use the flail at all :)
  8. I've never done it before, and I was wondering how it works if you have the Ivandis flail, and Blisterwood weapons. I'm doing it for the Morytania tasks. Do the burns count 1 for each weapon, or do I have to kill the vyres with the flail to upgrade the flail? Thanks
  9. That's what I figured, but it still seems slow so I just wanted to ask. Anyways, congrats! :)
  10. How did you bank the loot? Seems like it would slow everything down a lot
  11. I made sure everything was connected, and it was. Didn't fix anything. Although, my ram and video card were warmer than they normally are (I think) I did this (below in hide tags) and it worked. Any ideas why? I'm going to turn it back on and see if it still works [hide]THis issue is caused, in my case, by USER ACCOUNT CONTROL. If you JUST installed a driver, or a bunch of drivers like me after replacing the motherboard, and you get a black screen AFTER you logon, proceeding a restart, the drivers, Nvidia or ATI in my case, are trying to FINISH the install or something and user account control is blocking them from finishing; since the logon process can't finish, windows 7 does not continue in loading the rest of your processes. For this reason, a SECOND backup account is needed to allow you to logon and FIX the problem. I simply logged on with my second account, turned OFF user account control, and then logged on with the account that had the problem, my primary account, and THIS ALLOWED ME TO FINISHING LOGGING ON with it. Of course, I turned UAC back on for protection of the system after I was logged in with my normal account. ALWAYS KEEP A SECOND ACCOUNT, FOR YOU TO BE ABLE TO LOGIN, IN CASE SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPENS OR YOU FORGET YOUR PASSWORD! THIS IS SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION 101 PEOPLE! Driver suppliers NEED TO RESOLVE this aggravating issue; I was at the point of abandoning my primary account, 1 GB of settings and changes, until I tried this option. I hope this helps everyone who has this "black screen after logon"[/hide] link Edit: it worked still after turning it back on. However, I noticed Avast is disabled, and I'm not able to turn it back on. Trying to fix that now... I don't know what's wrong with Avast, when I click on the Fix Now button, or Enable, nothing happens. I was going to uninstall/reinstall, but I can't even uninstall it, or end it in Task Manager. More Edit: Got avast reinstalled and working, did a full scan and nothing came up. Even though everything seems to be fixed, I'd like to know why it all happened. Any ideas?
  12. Ending and restarting explorer[Caution: Executable File] fixes it every time. When I did it, I was on a wood surface, no band and I touched the case a lot. I'm going to take it back apart and see if anything looks wrong. Edit: on that page Jeremy linked, it said to put the security on the hard drive to allow access to everybody. I tried to do that, and this came up... [hide] [/hide]
  13. Well I restarted it again, and it worked fine. It seemed to take longer on the "Welcome" screen, when it was instant before after logging in. I dont think moving them back would work, as I just moved the optical drive 2 bays down and the hard drive 1 bay up. I would be more scared of screwing something else up if I put them back, would that really be a problem? When I restarted it after it worked last time, it did it again. explorer[Caution: Executable File] was running, and I ended it with the intention of starting it again, but right when I ended it, it restarted itself and loaded the desktop. I'll keep trying other things. I'm pretty sure it is, I can take it back apart and look again though.
  14. So today I wanted to reorganize the computer I built over Christmas, from the topic I had around then. I moved the hard drive and optical drive closer together, and took out some extra cords, because I was able to put both of them on the same power cord that way. I also organized the cords a little bit. During this, I unplugged the hard drive, optical drive, and one cord from the graphics card. When I put it all back together and started it up, it said it wasn't able to boot and did a system recovery to yesterday. After that, it started up normally until the log-on screen. When I put in the password, it just went to a black screen with the mouse pointer. I could move the mouse around. But, I hit ctrl+alt+delete, and was able to start the task manager. It went back to the black screen, but the task manager window came up, and I was able to use it. I was able to start it in safe mode too. After a couple restarts, I just started the task manager on the black screen and let it sit there. After about 7 minutes, a bunch of processes popped up and my desktop showed up like normal. What would cause this? Everything is working fine right now, but if I reboot I'll have to wait 7 more minutes after the black screen to get on my computer again. Also, it deleted all of my saved passwords on Chrome somehow.
  15. I've been doing teaks on ape atoll while I study. I was wondering if curly vines are more afkable, with the same or better xp as teaks. I'm using an adze, so firemaking xp is a factor and I don't want to do vines. Also, how afk is artisan's workshop compared to the time between clicks while wcing? Thanks!
  16. Didn't want to take off the aura cause it's active, but if you really want i can take another. :)
  17. Congrats :) if your inventory is full and you get some, does it go on the ground?
  18. 10k and 50gp. 3 logs and an air rune last time
  19. I've got it with a L118A, MP7, and a KSG12 :o
  20. Almost done mastering every weapon... The last few have been terrible though. I've done all snipers, all smgs, and I just have the FAD, Pkp pecheneg, and model 1887s left. The last three that I have done have been the worst guns I've ever played with - the spas, ksg12, and dragunov. The dragunov was hands down the worst gun in the game.
  21. I expect to get 85 agility and 90 slayer tomorrow, a couple nice achievements. I also might start getting SC hammers for construction and smithing, idk. I'm making about 300k/day from dailies, 200k/day from miscellania, 7k rc xp/day, and 4 torstol farming runs a day, so that's putting me ahead in cash and rc time.
  22. I've been pretty active at barrows during the extra loot week. I haven't been very lucky, until the very end ;) here's my loot pictures. Sorry for no cropping, little lazy :P also they're jpg, because I just got done building my first computer and I only have WinXP on it until I get back to college, and I forgot to have it save as png. My old one did that automatically, so I didn't notice it. [hide=Language][/hide]
