  1. Some people believe green should be considered a real color. Next they're going to want to give it different shades!

    Breaking news! Blue is now a shade of green! Stand by for a word from our president on this startling new discovery!

  2. No, I think you're safe, you can stay lol. I don't think anyone REALLY wants to refuel that war, especially since even Ross had to step in to contain it and it didn't end on the most positive of notes for everyone.

     

    Still, I did walk away from that with fond memories. Weird ones but fond none the less.

     

    To put it simply, ponies were everywhere. Like every single topic, derailings, mass conversion attempts, etc. The forum basically divided itself and most topics seemed to turn into arguments between the two sides over the use of pony images and subjects. We wanted to convert the whole forum, they wanted to eliminate us completely. Both mindsets fueled by wanting to win over the others. Eventually there was a compromise, with Ross's help, and we kept our pony topic and were only allowed to post about it in that and the random thread for the most part.

     

    Fun times.

  3. Well a little bit of video and photoshop editing later and I managed to manually close the eyes, speed it up, and crop it, but now it seems to pause at the end like it dropped a few frames somewhere. :S

     

    Well do with it what you will, should you decide to do anything at all. It was kinda fun messing around with this either way so I won't be upset in the least if you decide to keep using your current one.

    Aaaand the avatar version:

    Edit: I think I figured it out. I rendered the edited gif one frame to long so it hangs there. oops.

  4. Give me a few minutes and I'll see if I can work something out in Photoshop. I know a few ways to get this better to use, even if I have to import it into after effects and back into a gif to get it working lol

     

    Not sure if I can do much about the eye though. At least not quickly.

  5. I know that after this Christmas sale more than a few of you have this game. For those who've played it before, what's everyone's preferred Civilization and play style?

     

    Personally I prefer Norse and using Loki. The caravan style gathering makes it easy to move operations and I like how Loki's heroes summon myth units while fighting. Not only that but he's the only one with access to all giants along with 2 other myth units. Combined with The infantry as builders, it makes setting up outposts easy.

     

    Also should get some MP games going.

  6. I'm guessing the case of the music is that they were put together to create the games score and formed as an official band later after release using songs they made for the game. Wouldn't be the first time something like that has happened.

     

    This game actually reminded me of a snow mobile version of another PS1 game I played as a kid called Moto Racer 2. You should look into that game Ross. May just be childhood nostalgia blinding me but I remember that game being really fun.

  7. Oh, yeah, related to your username: I've also watched MLP since February of 2011, right in the middle of season 1. That's how I have this nick.

    I actually joined under a different name way back then because I hadn't heard about the show till season 1 was just about over. Back then it was Blightmare(which you're free to call me if you want) Those were... interesting times on these forums to put it loosely.

  8. Okay, so. If anyone here is a psychologist, yes please. I want you. I've been watching Legend of Korra, and whoopedefuckingdoo, lesbian couple in it now. I know the show has ended, but... Urghhh... (I am preparing to offend 90% of the population) I am so homophobic, it's ridiculous. Finding out about the lesbianness made me want to punch something. Now, yes, I know, being homophobic is bad, but I swear, everytime I try and get the horrible feelings and angst away, it never works. Nothing works. Just, gays and lesbians are such a strange fucking concept to my brain, and I can't take it. Because of the new gay stuff in this show, I am now reminded about gays everytime I see something related to the show. Thanks, internet. You've ruined the show for me, cause now I get pissed everytime I see it because whoopdedoo, there's a gay couple in it. It's a fucking wildfire of girls and guys going; "Ooh, you're supporting gays! Yay! *girly squeals*" Yeah, f all of you, you're making my job as an attempting recovery homophobic worse. Why can't I just be normal and accept the fact that gays are a thing?? This is stupid. I hate myself for being so hateful towards others. GRAGH.

    I'm gonna start off by saying as a bisexual who identifies with neither sex (genderqueer) I'm actually not offended. I just hope you won't see me any different after this, and I will make it an effort not to bother you with this knowledge again. :) I usually warn people ahead of time if my topics are leaning towards that subject anyways.

     

    I'm not offended because you are aware this is not a good thing for you to be thinking and the fact that you're aware of it and trying to better yourself is already a good sign. I've only taken one psychology class so I'm hardly qualified for any sort of in depth analysis but all I can suggest is really try to understand that sexual preference aside, a human is a human. In the end it's really no different than, say, I like playing video games over playing sports. Probably hard to make the connection between hobbies and sexuality but at it's core, both are preferences in the end, it's just people are far more passionate about one than the other. If your phobia is more centered towards the fear that they may try to hit on you then all you have to do is let them know you aren't interested. If they continue after that then either they're just complete assholes as a person, or you're trapped in a yaoi manga and I can't help you there lol.

     

    It also doesn't help that there ARE people who go out of their way to rub their sexuality in others faces and they aren't helping anyone doing that, really. I've always made it a point that I never talk about my sexual preferences unless either the topic arises(like in this case) or I'm asked. Most of my friends go months before finding out and I honestly prefer it that way because in the end I just want people to get to know me as a PERSON before a bisexual.

     

    I say keep trying to better yourself and I admire you for having the courage to speak up about personal issues.

     

    As for the Legend of Korra thing, that's honestly so blown out of proportions imo. I haven't watched the show so I can't really say 100% but I did see the ending everyone is losing their shit over and all I saw in the end was just 2 close friends. I get sappy with people all the time; doesn't mean I hit it off with them. :S I blame Tumblr in the end for all this craziness. They jump on the homosexual bandwagons so fast it makes my head spin sometimes. Do not, and I mean do NOT look up Sherlock on Tumblr.
