Solar, I know I can resize any avatar or icon, but not with the software I have installed in this computer. The closest approach to Corel Draw or any other drawing software that I've got in here is the Windows Paint.
I had a very cool avatar with Saturno and its rings, but when I tried to resize it with Paint it lost all of its movement.
And Simon... why does my avatar makes you seasick? :( :(
Anyway, I'm going to look for more.
Ana. :)
But I like Irona's avatar!! I never intended to have an adorable avatar, I wanted something different, but all the avatars I liked were too big and I couldn't resize them (see post above).Quote:

Er, seriously, Irona......you gotta have a more girly picture and not that ugly and gross skeleton! Now that Ana has a cute avatar, look at how adorable and cute she is!
So, isn't it time you change yours to a cuter and sweeter one? :cool::coo:
But, I must say that I like this one too, even if it's not usual in me to like this kind of childish and cute images. :p :D
Sure... you're right... so I have changed my avatar... this one is the cutest and sweetest :D :D :) :cool:Quote:

In Belgium we have expression for this that would sound like "breaking in open doors". That is mentioning things that everybody knows already or doing things that have already been done.[/QUOTE]Quote:

This is my most clever plan yet to destroy Xeon. This is the exact opposite of his sig and as you know matter and antimatter brought together give a huge thermonuclear detonation. So if he puts both these sigs in one post - e.g. to ask me what it is - he will end in a big bang. :-)
A new Xeon has just arrived today at the forum and we still haven't got rid of the old one. :D:D:D Maybe we could trade Xeon in for a nicer version. ;) :p
now who might that be
See my avatar. It's a token from old times of my country, China.

I've done it!
I have downloaded IrfanView and resized a new avatar. The problem is that I still can't resize animated gifs, but anyway, I like this one. It suits better with me.
:p :D :D
Ana.
Try this free tool.Quote:

Thank you, Simon!! :)
I've tried it, and it works, but now I don't know if I want to change my avatar again. I like the one I have now. Anyway, as I'm so bored these days at work, I'm sure that I'll continue to look for a new one.

From Ana:
Argh you! U should have told me! I've Adobe PhotoShop 6.0 and I can resize any images without any quality loss, I can twist and rotate them while having the original quality preserved, I can transparent and shadow effects(embossed, sunken, inner shadow....anything) and last but not least, it's possible to have shockingly cool alpha-blending effects if you wanna.(translucent/color see-through effects):cool:Quote:

Nah, Ana! U're not being a real ****. The truth is : when grown women like you have cute avatars, it makes all the men and boys go wild and crazy. Now you understand why the moderators(who are real men) didn't post anything since you came. U get the idea. :DQuote:

No! Argh! Please Irona! U're getting worse and worse by each day! Please, change into something nice! Ok, ok. You win, you win! I strongly prefer that white Eddie avatar. It's cooler than this.Quote:

That's not the point. The point solarflare intended is that you said girls couldn't find out something that difficult, while it is not even difficult at moron level to find out which link is concerned: just go over all letters till you find the correct one. That is either a testimony of sexism or of your own stupidity. Although the first option seems to justify "and" instead of "or". :rolleyes:Quote:

Latest report :
Currently, SimonAMD is leading the battle!
With his he||-shattering and heaven-crumbling Gradient-Technology + optimized linking(code-named Rainbow Burn), Solar is currently no match for him!
This is the most terrible, the most admirable and the coolest and sleekest Codeguru posting technology ever!
When I first saw this romantic rainbow color in his text, I felt as though I'm in the Garden of Eden, with God Himself!
The feeling is awesome, celestial! I wanna feel it again! Argh!
Some sources have revealed that SolarIntel is working on the next big thing : alpha-blending(colorized + translucency) images/text in posts! If this can be achieved, then SolarIntel is the Lord! The Lord of all Lords!
Meanwhile, rumours have said that SimonAMD seems to be working hard on animated text in posts! With his currently Rainbow Burn technology, if he succeeds, chances are that he's gonna be the Lord in Codeguru!
Simon, cheers!
When the folks come back on Monday(US time)...they're gonna cry cos' it's such a major break-through no one has ever thought was possible!
I have to confess....that I'm totally full of admiration and respect for Simon and his company, SimonAMD! :)
Okay, I concede the battle.Quote:

Latest Report :
WHOA! The fight is back on!
After leaving fans of the latest Codeguru posting technologies totally anxious and such, SolarIntel has released his latest and most berserk-ever technology that can tame the lions and make them behave like cuddly cats, and this can even tame the devils in He|| Itself!
God! Rotating 3D animated logos in different space-and-time positions, angles, views and perspectives! Although SimonAMD's Rainbow Burn is really awesome and strikingly cool, it is NO MATCH for SolarIntel's current posting technology that features 3D animated logos in votex-based rotation!(code-named Avenger Cyclone)
In fact, SolarIntel's current technology has far surpassed all other technologies that ever existed on Earth!
With their cool rotating effects, these logos capture even the dullest human eye! They make you awake, stay up all night and more! Now, programmers just need to see these darn awesome posts featuring SolarIntel's latest technological advancement and they can stay awake! No need for coffee!
Finally! Something that offers both an increase in productivity, reduce in costs( no need for coffee!) and is the best of both worlds.
This is really an eye-opener for all to see!
Whatever are the cute li'l girls gonna say when they return??!!
Irona? Marina? Ana? Argh!
The latest rumours from a mysterious source has made mention of SimonAMD lying down for a while and taking the beating while he's currently experimenting with the monster of all monsters : Flash-based technology in Codeguru's posts.(rumoured to be code-named Echinda)
That's all for today, folks! Let's sit back and relax and await the next and craziest technologies and see what these 2 big boys have to offer to the world!
Latest Report :
Instead of releasing and displaying his latest posting technology, SimonAMD is pouring cold water on SolarIntel! Too bad!
The war has simmer down for now.
Till then, folks! :)
Xeon.
Withlatestpostingtechnology,doyoumeananimatedtext?Ifso,whatdoyouunderstandunderthat?
By latest posting technology, I mean the level of power that is embeded in Codeguru's posts.
For example, your Rainbow Burn technology is considered an advance posting technology, and so is Solar's animated GIF in the post. Get it, SimonAMD? :D:D:D:D:D
If anybody is interested in posting text with a color gradient, here is the program I quickly wrote for this a while ago. Does anybody know how you get an edit box to "wrap" text or what is the term for which the text automatically goes to the next line if you reach the border of the edit box?
Here's a free tip. Type "h[ b][ /b]ell".Quote:

This is SolarIntel's proposed and upcoming posting technology, code-named The Grim Reaper!!!!
Details are still unclear, but a spokesman for SolarIntel has made some mention and hints of this technology getting launched as early as in a week or 2's time!

1. Even if you don't understand why a certain word is banned, you still have to refrain from using it. It is true that I, myself have wondered why a certain word was banned -- but as you can see from my posts I do not use that word.Quote:

2. Typing "|" instead of "l", typing [ b][ /b] in the middle of the word, or using a word with the same meaning is in most cases inappropiate. Of course there are exceptions. If you are discussing about Dante's Inferno for example, than this is something different. As for discussions about "girls" -- they are likely to be inapropiate with or without the use of a certain word.
3. It is not "some moderator" who decides which words are banned, but the Administrator. If you have a problem with a banned word, use the Feedback forum or drop Brad a PM and explain your whishes.
I disagree.Quote:

Nope, not much of a gambler. Just went for the shows and to get away from 0 degrees Fahrenheit weather. I wanted to see several large scale magic acts; saw three of them as well as the Cirque du Soleil.Quote:
Did you go to casinos... and most importantly did you win anything?

From Gabriel:
What??!!! U mean, you have nothing to do with the banning of the word 'g-urls'??!! But maybe you suggested it to the Lord Himself??!! :eek:Quote:
Even if you don't understand why a certain word is banned, you still have to refrain from using it. It is true that I, myself have wondered why a certain word was banned -- but as you can see from my posts I do not use that word.
What??!! The Lord Himself??!!! Argh no! :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:Quote:

Went there for a work related function ;) It was like 115 degrees ...but it was a dry heat ;) But you have to love a place that has slot machines in the airport or pretty much whereever you turn. Ahh sin city. Do they still have that roller coaster on the top of the building that kinda looks like seattle's space needle? I think I heard they demolished that building somewhere...Quote:

The high each day this week was around 70 degrees F.
Yeah, right. The lady I went to LV with would have really enjoyed going to men's clubs :). Instead I think she would have enjoyed clubbing me if I went to such a place ;). Needless to say, I kept with the family style entertainment.Quote:
But if you visit clubs for men and stuff, then I really hold and salute you in extremely high respect, regard, glory and honour.

If that's the case, then besides clubbing ye' with a morning star(spiky mace), she's gonna slam, toast, cook, bake, grilled, fried, knife and abuse you totally! God! Argh no! :eek::eek:
Hmmm.....this simply shows that being a flirt all your life is much better : more freedom and such.
