Congratulations!! That's a massive accomplishment. I got to 1st class and then stopped, I believe.
But yeah, man, that's huge, cool stuff.

Chumscrubber, that movie was weird.
Although to be fair, I started watching like 2/3 in, so I had no clue what was going on.

Congratz, it's about time. I got mine like a week before my 18th b-day.
Site finally finished.
I'm not sure exactly what happen as I can't remember it well. But apparently durring april 3rd I worked and whiped up a good chunk of my website finally.
I still got a few pages to finish and a few to make, along with a bunch of prettyin' up to do but, ya...
Check it, let me no if theirs problems, explore, and cry at my horrid creation.
Onto a shower(cause I smell) and then more work!

I dig it, but you MUST change the shade of blue type on the grey. It gives me a headache to read when the colors both relatively dark values.

The most important thing I think I can suggest is to change your text color and or bg text box color, dark blue on gray is terribly hard to read, I had to highlight it.
I don't know how you managed to do that senti, but damn you.
Changed the txt color and link color. Birhgt blue and pink. ^^

Yeah, much better. Not as much as an eyesore. :)

Consider changing your typeset and adding a <title> </title> to your site.
font-family: Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;
font-size:14px;
letter-spacing:0.1em;
line-height:20px;
text-indent:20px;
color:#0099FF;
margin:4px; Hi there!

linky
Definitely better. I'd heed jmountainbike's advice and perhaps add a little bit of space around the type block from the edges, it's looking a little tight.
Besides that, good edits.
Nostrakaynus foretells more doom
For once it's not me predicting the downfall of Sponsorships. It's now time for the doom of the internet!
ISPs in the UK complain that the new BBC iPlayer is killing them
Now the only suprise I had reading this was why the ISPs haven't complained this loudly before. I mean, we've been downloading huge videos over here since the Portal was invented, to say nothing of the gigantic sites like Youtube.
Suddenly they have issues with bandwidth throttling when it's a publicly funded corporation they can't say is more than likely an illegal / international / immoral / non-complainative source of downloading material? What do people in an ISP think their customers will use thier broadband for with sites like iPlayer and Youtube available? I mean, last month they were pumping people who broke the 'fair use' agreement on thier 'unlimited' download caps. Considering half an hour of a crap soap opera is a third of a gigabyte, I think they're going to have to reevaluate just how feasible thier 'unlimited' offers are, especially since it's been forecasted the entire internet will collapse in a year and a half.
Interesting factoid. 69% of the net is pornographic.
In case you do want me to predict doom and gloom for the Sponsorship scene...
1) And the lamb open'd the first seal and the four mods shouted 'come and see'. 2) And I beheld a white horse and upon which was a rider with a bow, and he was given adverts and was set forth to conquer the net, and conquered...
6) And the lamb open'd the third seal and the four mods shouted 'come and see'. And I beheld a black motorcycle and upon it was a rider who was given a pair of scales, 7) and I heard a voice within the mods with a voice like a crack of a whip say 'a front page game for a day's wages, though don't effect the movies or ebaum...'

Bleh, stuff like iPlayer is the way forward. We need more innovations which allow a large pool of free material while simultaneously kicking pirates in the balls.

Good thing we have that GRID affair Fox News told us so unsensationalistically about :)

There are three problems with The Grid
1) At the moment, it's private. And you'd need your own private fibre optic cable to connect to it. We have issues already getting people digging up the streets to provide broadband... lord knows how much a problem private fibre optic cabling would cause.
2) It's in that current "this is for academics only" state that the net was back in the eighties. Once that changes, we'll be stuck with the same problems we have now. Maybe they'll change it for the better - charging pennies for emails, setting up domain names so that they're under stricter controls, permenant IP addresses or thier equivalents for easier tracking and less anonymous dickholery over the net... but I'm guessing having the ability to send 1GB of spam a second will fuck a lot of people up somehow nonetheless
3) It's currently only being used for the LHC. You know, that billion mile long circular supercollider in France/Switzerland. So that when that Black Hole they open up there happens, The Grid will be it's first casualty. Okay, we'd all be dead seconds later, but hey, if it happens during my surfing time I'm going to be MIGHTY pissed off...

RE: Weird Movies
I just got done watching a really weird movie...Sweeney Todd. Its a musical (but still good) about a barber. Instead of shaving their beard he cuts their throats, sends em down this one thing, makes them into pies, and sells them.
Its really weird and dark, but still an awesome movie
At 4/9/08 10:13 PM, Kanadian-Keith wrote:
i can tell you werent paying attention to the movie, there are reasons for all of that
Ok, I guess I'll descibe it in detail then.
Mr. Benjamin was sent to jail for "being foolish". After 15 years he returned to london so that he could see his wife and daughter again. He finds out that his wife poisoned herself and that his daughter was now in the hands of the judge. So now he wants to kill the judge and get his daughter back. WHILE another one of the sailors from Sweeney Todd's (Mr. Benjamin's) ship is going after his daughter...but he doesn't know its her daughter.
SPOILERS BELOW
The wife didn't actually kill herself, but she did poison herself and was in bed for 3 months, and at the end of the movie sweeney todd kills her by mistake, thinking it was someone else and that she was already dead. He finally gets to the judge and sends him down the shoot thingy. When he gets down there that chick is there screaming. Sweeney has a talk with her and throws her into the furnace. Then that one kid cut todd's throat
I think I was payin attention
At 4/9/08 10:42 PM, Kanadian-Keith wrote: actually, sweeney todd didnt have a ship, he was shipwrecked and found and he got to the judge before he got to his wife, and there is a reason for why he killed everyone, that you still havent stated so you didnt fully pay attention
Keith, calm down, the play and the movie were different. In the movie NG-Unit is almost all right, although he has a few minor useless details that are off, but overall he's actually pretty damn close.

Binary Sound Recording
Has anyone else tried any of this? I was over at the General forum and this is what I came across. A thread involving a "virtual haircut." But to experience the full technique of it, you have to wear your headphones and close your eyes.
This was it'll make you feel as if you're actually in the room. Crazy.

Thats kinda cool how they can switch it from one headphone to the other, I kinda know how to do that but...not as smooth and perfect as that

Holy crap, I freaked out when I started it and whipped around because I thought the guy was like right next to me. That's awesome, do they have any other demos like that?

Wow! how did they do that? It was so cool, at first when they knocked i actually turned to see if someone was knocking, hahaha, then i realized it was the 'virtual sound'.
I'm sleepy. Where's that pico dat preloader? Also, level 19.

I'd totally make my own version of that where the guy just randomly screams in your ear from time to time. That I'll freak some poeples right out. lol >:3
