so, here's mine. as you can see i got annoyed at how difficult it was to make out the details of images on the screen after 2 coats of black paint, so i scraped some off with a strip of beef jerky. it was quite exhausting work so i had to eat the beef jerky to stay alive. unfortunately this occurred before i had removed all of the paint.

seriously - you telling me some of you PC lubbers don't even know how to do a screen capture... ha ha ha... there's even a key for it on yer stoopid - finger stretchin', totally annoying 'insert' key and even more useless 'Windows' key keyboards...

Don't worry I never tire of givin' you PC heads a hard time...

I have that picture of Tresor that Cristian posted on my desktop at work... thought it was better than all the desktops they had on the site...

what´s the story about having huge image files as desktop image?? It slows down the computer!! ??
I normally prefere one color and that´s it. The one I have now is just a gif. So that´s why I don´t have a nord modular picture, marcel! :)

Well, for whatever reason I cant get any further than pressing the PrintScrn button, and only getting half the image pasted....

My desktop has a still from my fave' movie of all time, "Pallookaville" on it - Adam Trese, Vincent Gallo & William Forsythe sitting round a table in a diner...

I've changed the image to a monocrome one, and it looks pretty nifty...

Chuckle Brothers were funny, but no one was as funny as Trever & Simon - top class Saturday entertainment for the weird kids who don't like footie and pop music...

the martial arts involed and the cgi stuff is acually pretty cool, story line blows at times and the repetive action gets boring, but just the acrobatics involed was very cool i though esspecially when their in the warehouse and their swinging from beam to beam. worth $3 buckaroos to rent. no wait ,out of pure american curiousity, what format do most europeans watch rented movies in? video? [DVD,VHS,BETA etc...]

Sheridan
1st May 2003, 04:58
if I am correct they use the same as us americans, i.e. dvd, vhs. but they are different frame rates as americans. they use the PAL system which is 25 fps.

BTW - I have a Bros story!!!! - Absolutely years ago, I saw them at london heathrow airport - my sister wanted to go talk to them, and my mum was walking us over to them, and I burst into tears - it was like when a small child sees a clown or a mime artist in a marketplace, and they just cry out of fear? - I was like that - I put it down to all those screaming girls - it just scared the shit outta me!!!

I also did the same thing when I saw Frank Bruno in our local market (of all places) - people were rushing around him, and it all just made me cry!!!!

I think I must have a deep-rooted fear of famous people...
