art schools generally require macs... 2nd - not into pc gaming... im more for digital imaging, photoshop ect....

Is that legit?!?

I don't think i can get a decent computer for ~$500 though, and when i go to college in a year or so, they require you to buy Mac laptops.. and thats about 2 grand right there... As for a Wii, thats not a bad idea... although I have an Xbox360 already, and am happy with it.. last generation[in gaming] I had a Gamecube and Xbox, and the Gamecube was rarely played... mainly it was just for Zelda, super smash, and F-Zero...

Well, I have ~$500 to blow.... and I have some things in mind I would like to buy, but I'm having a hard time deciding what to do with it. Heres some things I had in mind... Guitar/Amp ect... Well, Ive been wanting a nice guitar for a long time now, and now I have some cash to get one... I'd like to order online. Here are some I've been looking at... $499.99 - Acoustic/Electric (no amp, buy when I get more cash) http://www.guitarcenter.com/shop/produc ... 8653%2e114 $399.99 (electric guitar) - Fender Strat Standard http://www.guitarcenter.com/shop/produc ... =103576708 $379.99 (electric guitar) - Epiphone Les Paul Standard http://www.guitarcenter.com/shop/produc ... =100237216 Amp to go with the two above. between $100-150, yet to find one... A Camera... Right now, I have a crappy 2mp kodak, thats realllly old. And a 35mm SLR thats also old... older than i am in fact. (but it works great) - and I don't mind scanning picture. I'd like to get an DSLR, but I cant get a good one + good lenses for under $800 even... Wacom + New LCD I'd like to get into digital illustration id expect the wacom to cost ~$250 and the monitor to cost around $250. I'd like to get a high res like 1600x1200, or something wide screen, but i don't know if i can get a monitor like that for $250 Random Save the $500 to go to an art camp at a college this summer. (price for it is ~$1600, but u can earn college cred. Clothes + Random assorted things... New Computer... :| Attempt to get a good computer, and get rid of my crap one right now (566mhz, 256mb ram[updraded], 16mb video[upgraded], 200gig HDD[upgraded], AKA crap.. If anyone could help me find a decent comp for $500 it'd be nice, even a custom build, and keep my 200gig HDD. - Highly doubtful I know... If someone helps me decide on a final decision... I'll make them one of my famous signatures, or wallpapers - custom request by the person. Have a Sexy X-mas everyone.

edit* , meant to start a new post.

$510 cash.... :| oh, and a 20lb bag of assorted candy from "Santa" I dunno what I'm going to spend it on, it anything... Maybe I will make a topic and have people help me decide or something.

Thanks, i'll work on that. I might convert my galleries to .php based... but im not working on it for a while, since im having xmas today, and tomorrow. and i have to then write a 6 pg. paper + 10min presentation + 6min. long poem for school by the time i go back jan 2nd. :| Merry Xmas everyoneee!

as long as your not an extremist PETA person, i salute you :thumbsup: me + meat = i dont each so much beef just because i hate the taste of it, unless it has tons of seasoning on it.. I prefer chicken, and even then i dont eat alot of it... i usually eat beef/chicken ect with pasta + cheese so it works out :)

Yes, if you look on the left side the scroll bar appears because the images expand down the page... If you go back now and do they same thing it shouldn't happen.

crosby stills nash & young.... to long of a name...

Yes. :]

Throw me on there also, im a jack of all trades (almost)... no advance 3D/Landscape stuff for me.

You may be running in high resolution -when you click the graphics tab the window expands and the side bar *scroll bar* on the side comes up??

The tabs Graphics - Photo - Traditional - Tutorials are going to be all of the same layout, like in the graphics section the other tabs Bio - Links - Services are going to be mainly text Bio = about me, Links = links to other sites ect, Services = For hire/commision ect..

Fill out this form for me if you would please :] Right now I just have the graphics page up, but you can expect to see the same scheme and layout through the rest of the website. Website = http://www.autumn-affinity.com 1.) How does it look (good/bad) why? 2.) Is it functional 3.) Hows the layout (good/bad) why? 4.) Fix/Change/Other *optional question

Ok so yesterday i somehow got my resolution to be 1600x1024, and i liked it a lot on my 17in. CRT, even though it cut off the top and bottom a little. i have no idea how this happened, but when i restarted it went back to my normal 1280x1024. Now i don't know how to get it back to the 1600x1024, and it doesn't show up on the tab were u change ur resolution. any help?

Check ur PM's
