Imageready Question
Yeah, the "clickability" from it is from the coding. Unless you mean to embed a button within the image, in which case, no. You'd need flash for that, and need to save it as a flash file. Gifs are seen as one image and can't be sliced.

The iPhone
I'm confident that Apple aren't the first to do that. It's been around for a while now, it's just expensive.

Internal Battery Has Ran Dry?!?!!
You both fail. The time system used in the Pokemon game uses a battery to keep it correct, even if it isn't on. And like all things, it runs out. I'm pretty sure there isn't anyway that Nintendo or whichever company who makes the games can help. You can still play, like it says, but things which happen only at certain times of the day/week just won't happen and it will be as if you are stranded on the time and day it dried up on.

Images for Wedding Invitations...c/c, anyone?
At the moment it's veeery basic. That may be what you want, but it looks simple, but not simplistic. From what I can tell it looks like a gradient with a low opacity, default pattern over it. Then a photo of the hands with some text and brushings. If you want a nice curly, scriptive font - try Scriptina. For me, you should focus on the hands. But more specifically; the ring. [*:3a9kt6sh]Like Metroid said, perhaps zoom out on the photo a bit so wrists are in-shot. [*:3a9kt6sh]Then sharpen the hands. Looks very blurry. [*:3a9kt6sh]Use gradients to fade away the corners and edges to the point where it's just touching the hands. [*:3a9kt6sh]Then increase saturation on and around the ring. [*:3a9kt6sh]Also a gaussion blur and lighten technique would go well with this. [*:3a9kt6sh]Could also do with more contrast, at the moment it looks very much like one hand but a little... freakish. I'm unsure for background, though. You want something fairly contrasting, so the hands stick out, but not so much it's an eyesore. I'll perhaps post if I get a good idea for it. Good luck, anyway.

The Tip.It SotW - #7 - Photo Manip
K then, not getting any more CC, so i'll enter this: Probably going to be my last SotW entry, losing inspiration/reason to carry on photoshops.

~Nintendo Ds Vs. Sony PSP~
Uh, huh. PSP is about ~2 cm wider, and about ~2 thinner. Pretty big monster. :roll:

Valentines day. Eeeeeep.
Heh, i'll probably take advantage of the shops. ^_^ No one ever shops on Valentines day, except single people or people who don't care/forgot. Well, there won't be anyone shopping where i'll be going, who gets a game as a present for that day? :P

My imagination is crazy, physics help?
Lol, I was like "yea... I just posted about it 2 posts up..." Well, your link never did mention the name. :P Heheh, like I said, I didn't know the name so how was I supposed to recognise it? :P I only know it as "That really big hotel that Tiger Woods drove off", but you did remind me that it is 7 stars.

~Nintendo Ds Vs. Sony PSP~
well... There you go. The PSP has replicas of PS1 games, the DS has new games with a new interface. +1 for the DS from me. DS has new games? HAHA. I just looked at the Play.com main DS page. It was full of old games and generic movie games. Mario, Star Wars, Need for Speed and The Sims. The PSP doesn't have games replica of PS1, in the same way that DS doesn't have Gamecube replicas. They're new, but not original. As I say alot around here now; being unique doesn't make it better. Would you honestly be willing to lug it around with you? Although the screen on a PSP is "tiny", it's very generous for it's overall size. Besides, think about how big portable DVD players are, they aren't exactly going to be a whole world of size different. I mean, why not just drag around a HDTV and whole surround sound with you? But, if you really want to know, PSP gets my vote. It's just so much more versatile. Let's say i'm playing a game during a train ride. But, it's about to stop. What do I do? Turn it off and then just wait? Nope, pause the game and turn on some music. But I have a stop at an internet cafe, do I turn the game back on? No way, that will just make me forget about what I ordered. I can switch on the Wi-fi and have a quick browse. And once i've finished, I can close the browser and switch the music back on. Or even if the cafe didn't have a wi-fi hotspot, I can flick on a movie, or perhaps an episode of a show I wanted to watch. With a battery life of 7 hours, far longer than I plan to be out, I don't see how you can lose. I don't care about innovative gaming, many people I know who bought a DS lost their stylus. One of whom actually dropped their DS and snapped the screen off. X vs Y topics are so stupid and repetitive. You get a few posts and it then turns to childish bickering. "OMH NO MINE R BETAR CUS MY GAMES > YOURS LOLPWNT".

Eh, I can read it pretty clearly. Needs more universal opinions though, so HOMGBUMP.

Valentines day. Eeeeeep.
If you're younger than 16 then don't bother. I don't see why men should have to do something on this particular day when they can so easily do it on any other day, what makes Feb 14th so special? I see a lot of girls where I live just get a boyfriend about a month beforehand, even with someone they may not particularly fancy, just so they can expect a gift.

My newest work
I agree with Met on this. I'm going to have to ask why have you put the text in that corner? You've got 3/4 of a blank canvas there.

English/American/Candian/[Your country here] Terminology
Is it pronounced s ma king ? And smoking room is where you get dressed? I'm not sure, I need a Brit to confirm that. A smoking room is like a gentleman's club. Smaking room? xD I don't know about other people, but I pronounce it "S-moe-king" or "S-moh-king". Whichever is easier to perceive.

My imagination is crazy, physics help?
People from Dubai like tall buildings too. :shock: (Isn't there that awesome hotel there too...?) Yeah, Tiger Woods drove a golf ball off of the top of it. Can't remember it's name though. I'd love to do something like that.

Vector, not cartoon, different things. :P Contrast is actually pretty high, for me anyway. I try only to use about ~20 and i'm on about ~35. But, i'll add a tad more. And if I were to add any more contrast, I would darken it. Good idea with the gradient though, might soften the border a bit more. I don't particularly want the text to be an eyesore, so it's probably best it stays as it is. (It's Opaque, by the way.) I'll lower opacity/remove some stars. Can't do anything about the border. :/ I added it and then proceeded to do some Applied Images, so it's stuck. But just to show you what a gaussion blur would do... Ok, here's v2. Using 90% of your CC PJB. :P I think it's actually better, thanks PJB. :D And thanks ThoseTheBrokes for the comment. :)

First Few Photoshop Abstracts
Can't see the fourth one, but all of the others look pretty basic. First: [*:2b3kgc12]Just a gradient really. Second: [*:2b3kgc12]Looks like a filter pile. [*:2b3kgc12]No render blending. [*:2b3kgc12]Bad border. Always use black. [*:2b3kgc12]Font is... debatable. Quite illegible. Third: [*:2b3kgc12]WHOAFILTERPILE. [*:2b3kgc12]The contrast broke my retinas and then proceeded to maul my brain. [*:2b3kgc12]Colours aren't very eye-friendly. [*:2b3kgc12]No border. [*:2b3kgc12]No focal point. Oh, and it isn't "ripped" unless it was stolen without permission. Using a tutorial or a render from a render site isn't ripping. If you want a brushing photoshop tutorial, look at mine (Link in signature).

Original: (Original is actually 2500x1250, or something HUEG like that.) v1. v2. [PJBs CC] I've probably gone overboard on the brushes in the sky, i'll probably remove 60% of them. Experimental, rugged border. And I really wanted some way to link the two mountains. And, that should about cover what I need to say. Rates, comments welcome - CC encouraged. Thanks to the mod who moved this for me. ^_^
