Meh, Dell changed the stand on their 30 inch I see (looking at that pic and the website), looks nothing like mine (got it in 2008).

Doesn't even look like it is adjustable anymore.

Maybe you can't see the stand because it's hidden behind the monitor. I's still adjustable, at least in height, tilt and angle.

Still would take it over anything else. 2560x1600 FTW!

I paid about 1250 euros for it, and well worth the money so far. I'm not sure if my wallet liked it though.

I've cleaned my desktop and got a new monitor. Took me a while to find a useful wallpaper for my new resolution. I'll use this for now.

Finally got some cash so I could buy my new Dell 30".

I've taken a few pictures recently. I haven't bothered to scale them down, but you can click on the links below.

There's a few improvements I'd like.

Adding servers to favorites. There's certain servers I often play on, and I'd like to add them to favorites so I don't have to look through the server list to find it again.

And make autokick work on training mode. On my (demo) drift server half of the drivers were driving wrong way, even with autokick on. Took me a while to find out until I put 990 laps on it. Works, but kind of silly.

Speaking about skins. If you've read "The Enigma Of Amigara Fault" (a manga, you'll probably like it if you like Elfen Lied), you might lol about this skin I made.



Made it for FZ5 too.



Also I've been working on a Lucky Star skin.



Found out bringing my laptop to work was a pretty good idea, so I actually have something to do. I don't want to run pirate software on my work PC.

I was bored at work and made a skin based of the manga "The Enigma of Amigara Fault".





Any suggested changes?

Quote from Swiss-Spirit :

"Animenation Motorsports Server"

Where the advert banners are filled with Japanese commercials and manga characters looking onto the track.

And Kyoto's obviously their base. Where Initial-D like XRT's drift through every corner and XRR are practising touge battles.

Well, things that cross my mind when thinking about it

I know some people who has fiber and a high upload rate they barely use at all. If anyone wants, I can hear with them if I can "borrow" their bandwidth to host a server.

My fists makes the speed of light WISH that it was faster!

Epic rap battle is awesome!

Quote from XCNuse :

I learned that a bunch of people prefer to do it that way to avoid the large amount of noise that creeps up on the hot sensor over super long exposure times.

So that is true. I saw that in the manual and thought it was a misprint, since I know it happens with a high ISO. Then I learned something today too.

Quote from Myffe :

So im thinking of getting new camera cause my tiny digital is total crap. What camera would be best for a beginner? Have been watching 550D and some other cams . And oh it will be for video shooting too.

550D, man. I have that camera myself, and I'm glad I bought it.

I played some GTAIV a long time ago. We all know that the AI there is pretty smart.

Quote from XCNuse :

In that case, take a few @30 seconds and in Photoshop layer them all up and set the layer style to "lighten"

Thanks for the tip.

I'll remember to bring my remote shutter next time. However I think I got a pretty good picture.

Tried a long exposure time.

Unfortunately I couldn't use longer time than 30 secs. I forgot my remote shutter at home so I couldn't use bulb.

Is this blonde acting or is she plain stupid? Anyways she makes me want to kill someone for some reason.

Just more Wreckers on the Demo...

Hahaha... Unfortunately I think you're right.

I think those who buy games at Steam are in a completely different customer group than those LFS is meant for.

I admit that some of the corners in South City are a little confusing.

Quote from flymike91 :

lol that must be how they discourage speeding in Norway^^

You're absolutely right. They thinks that people just stops driving reckless if the engine is slow. It's pretty common to see a station wagon with an 80bhp engine.

Nice one.



Due to it's low weight and low powered engine it's one of the few sporty cars you can actually afford to import in Norway.

It wouldn't go lower than F4.0. However this is my couch with my table, camera case and Minecraft Creeper. On the second picture I've angled the flash using a piece of paper. This is with 1/25 and ISO 1600.

And another picture of me without my face, but with 1/20 and ISO 1600.

Needs some oil, some fixing of the brakes, a new rear tire and maybe some more tape, but hey, it works.

I used 1/80, not 1/125. I only use that high when it's really bright or I use flash. But right now I tested with as low as 1/20 and it looked pretty good. O,o Thanks!

I bought my camera at Wednesday and it's really awesome compared to my old Olympus.

I'm not too good with the focus yet. And I had to use the high ISO so I could have a decent piece of light without having too slow shutter speed.

I have shrinked the pic down so it doesn't fill up the whole Internet, so you can't see the noise too good. For now I'm only using the standard 18-55IS that came with the camera.

It works.
