To me the choice between 64 or 32 bit is a moot point, since there’s no difference in cost. Always go with the better option, yeah? You have access to your full 4 GB, and you can get the 64 bit (and more efficient) versions of applications when given the choice. The only reason not to is if you’re dependant on software which isn’t compatible with 64-bit Windows. Companies using archaic systems for example. Never had a problem myself with such an incompatability. That said, if you’ve waited all this time to upgrade, perhaps you can hold out for several months longer, and get [Windows 8]? System requirements should be similar. Especially if you haven’t run into memory problems so far, then I don’t think you’ll miss the 0,5 GB before you upgrade. By the way, on my computer, Windows 7 is running a little over 2 GB. 1 GB seems to be cached, not sure what it means but I vaguely recall something about Windows reserving memory for much used applications and services. I’m using aero, and pretty much all the other performance options are checked. On the other hand, I’m not using system restore (don’t know how much that affects memory), and no virtual memory.

Browsing RedBubble I found a shirt that I assume has been commissioned by @ReZourceman:

Yeah me too.. WHY???

Yeah, I’m thinking of getting a second set of braces somewhere in the near future (when I can afford it). Nothing wrong visibly (regarding gaps / smile), but my teeth aren’t aligned properly anymore. They used to be, my first braces in highschool corrected that, but years later, and those fucking wisdom teeth are messing things up again. The last one is forcing itself through my gum at this very moment, it’s goddamn annoying. Don’t want to avoid eating, but I have to deal with chewing in the meantime.

Can’t help, but just wanted to say that cover is amazing. Captured the Tin Tin look & feel perfectly!

Don’t you pay more taxes when you have it payed out like that, as opposed to just taking the holidays? (But perhaps you don’t care)

(nice artwork by the way )

That was awesome.

Well, I don’t like most of ’m, but I liked the one that first popped up on my screen. After wasting some minutes, I found another that made me laugh: Anyway, I’m done with the site .

That was an unexpected notification . Anyway, glad you’re enjoying this fantastic franchise, and welcome to the forum! (Although to be what we Dutch call an “antfucker†(i.e. nitpicker), it wasn’t quite the same experience, as I did enjoy Metroid 2. Never managed to beat the final boss though. One day.. Grr.)

Hmm, I have the decade box, still need to play both the Tiberium series as the Red Alert series from the start till the end. Never was interested in the Generals universe though :|. Even now I have the games, I just can’t be arsed. I guess I should give them a try at one point, but yeah. The C&C era is over.

I followed The Fish’s maze to its source, found this rage comic:

Well, that depends on what kind of cinema you’re going .

You’re not going to ask us again if you’re required to have sex huh? :p Good luck / have fun!

No.. But I know how many cookies I eat :p. Other fun statistics:

That’s simply not true (the one The Fish posted).

Oh no, that’s absolutely not it. If you’d put this in the general gallery thread, it’d be fine, but since this is the t-shirt thread.. I don’t like the typical hand-coloured look on t-shirt designs.

To explain it in a few sentences: - draw in pencil. - you could ink it on paper (trace it with a black pen), or do this digitally as well - scan your drawing, and clean it up by deleting grey spots, and playing with the contrast. You need to get a clean image with black lines from your drawing, and everything else should be white. - zoom in 2 or 4 times, the use the free-select tool (or what it’s called in photoshop), “trace” your black lines, and select an area that’s supposed to be one continuous colour. Make sure the selected area overlaps the black lines (so you don’t get transparent spots), but obviously don’t go outside of them. - select your preferred colour and use the full bucket. - oh forgot: set your original drawing on “muliply” mode. This is a seperate layer, and once cleaned up, should be kept at the top, and you won’t do any editing in this layer anymore. All the colours go beneath it. - Rinse & repeat; use a new layer for each piece of colouring. I’m not great in explaining things. Look for a tutorial.. Images should help immensly with these kind of things.

I’d personally get rid of them altogether. And I’m sure people already commented on this in regards to your previous t-shirt designs.. But this could really do with some digital colouring. This would look so much better on t-shirts if you just stuck with flat colours.

Never tried the PC adventure games since Cube advised me not too (The Wii game didn’t need any explicit third party disencouragement, it sold itself pretty poorly). Anyway, the trailer shows absolutely nothing. If done well, I’m absolutely interested in getting it for PC, but I’d love some Karen Gillan as well..

It’s really comments like these that make women insecure and to things like this:

The thing is, if you run them.. You can fix that.

Cute song eh? I’m sure it was this one:
