  1. I'm oh soooo grateful for Power Customization, especially on my Fire/Fire Scrapper, because the combination of his Heat Shield and Plasma Shield, not only made it impossible to see him it turned him into a flippin' plasma torch that I couldn't bare to look at.

    Now they're a barely describable steamy mist. Well, until my friend throws his Plant/Therm Fire and Plasma Shields on me. *sigh* Doc

    Personally, I tend to go muted on most thing unless there's a thematic reason behind it, like my FF/NRG Def 'Rainbow Sherbet' where FF's are Mint Green/Yellow and her blasts are a Tangerine Pink-Orange/Yellow.
  2. You'll have to run one during the next HeroCon, that will likely be my next weekend off...

    -.-





    (Have I mentioned before that I hate retail?)
  3. I personally don't mind if I get a tell asking to join my my team. If my team is in a situation where either a.) there are no slots available, or b.) my friends and I aren't up to adding an unknown to out midst, I will let the person know so.

    More often than not, it's getting towards the end of our evening.

    If we have room, I'll shoot back a "1 sec", then then do a /sea for the person. If they're level is within a reasonable range of our own, then either I our the Team Leader will send them an invite.

    If they are say, level 3 and we are on 20+ level characters, then odds of them getting invited are slim. Although there are exceptions to this.

    As for the "Not looking for a team" comment, that's generally correct, I'm usually not 'looking' for a team. That does not mean that if someone sends me a tell asking me to join their team, that I will jump down their throat or crawl up their ***, because I might actually say "Sure." After all, I wasn't 'looking' for a team. If I wasn't willing to join a team and didn't want to be bothered, I'd throw up that big red 'Do no disturb meh!'in my search dialog.

    Edit: And I agree with everyone else, there is no excuse for rudeness.
  4. wow

    *stunned*

    Exceptional piece of work there, TA.
  5. Jason Spyda Adams does some pretty outstanding work. Okay not exactly a drawing...

  6. Hope you have a wonderful day!

    Think about it,

    "Badge get off the couch!"

    "Badge stop biting that mailman!"

    "Badge stop peeing on the rug!"

    I mean everyone already yells that stuff at me already so it would be easy to start yelling it at a dog.
    Y'know thats not a bad idea.

    She's ALWAYS playing dead
    Too funny.

    And a lovely puppy, gratz JJ!
  8. I thoroughly enjoyed these letters, Niv. About the only thing I would have done differently, is for them to have been hand-written.

    I'd lose the whit background though, needs flames...
  12. My vote is for Foo.

    To me it seems more 'you're there', less 'cover piece'. It's perspective is more like it was snapped on a cell phone camera from someone fleeing the mayhem.

    Actually, the Dev's stated that Praetoria would not have war wall between their zones, and that Paragon City war walls will not be going away.

    You're welcome. I keep it and more up in a stickied thread.
  17. I agree, I really like Adam's artwork. All of the women in his artwork are individuals, each with their own attributes. I like that he doesn't just plant Triple-D's on all of them. His 'Women of DC' is a perfect example.
  18. Happy Hatching Day, Kyo!

  20. Also, exiting Base Edit mode will bring back your Menu/Health/End bar.

I thought I'd mention that every so often a site called Tom's Hardware publishes a guide on graphics cards, be it best for the money or best for gaming or whatever. Near the end of the articles, they publish a Graphics Card Hierarchy Chart which allows people to see more or less how their cards compare to the cards mentioned in the article. I figure access to such a chart might be helpful, so... Here's a link to the chart in the latest article I could find.

    Hope this helps both here and when it comes time to make upgrade decisions.
    Thanks for that link, Red. I just had to buy a new desktop to replace my laptop (I'll never buy another HP laptop again) and it looks like the Radeon HD 4350 that came with it, is right in the middle of that list. I'll likely have to upgrade in the future, but it does the job for now.

    Oh, and I found another website that provides some pretty extensive hardware reviews at Motherboards.org

    Greetings

    Welcome back Rebel.

    I think Operation Jingle Bells would be a perfect 'welcome back to the game' event.
