Ooh, do I see shurikens? Nice... :)

I'll have to look out for that movie, I think.

Sort of. They're like spring-loaded shurikens on a handle w/ a trigger - they're called 'Tojo blades'. VH squeezes the triggers and they spin like buzzsaws and there's a release that he can use to send them flying like traditional shurikens, only much much faster. ;) Coolest weapon ever!

The movie's a little corny, but it's a fun time! :)

Loved it Hey I wonder If I can animte the Tojo blades for you. or maybe If you got more than one of these pics I might be able to make the background change, I could try but bear in mind gifs only allow what 285 colors?
So may lose a little it the translation. Thats why all my backgrounds tend to stay in the samw pallet.

I'm sorry, but the fussy side of me had to come on and say "It's 256, 255 if you want to be fussy and leave 1 for the transparancies". :D


*shuffles out, head down*

*rushes back in*

Anyway, my new desktop - Windemere, taken yesterday evening:

I do wonder, sometimes, if you spend any time at all in your house, Leisha. :rolleyes:
 
:D Believe me, I spend 98% of my life behind the same four walls. I get sick of it, actualy, which is why I enjoy taking photos.


And with the petrol prices rising, my family may not be able to afford to go on any trips in the future - which is why we're out now!

And today the sun was shining, too, so my mum said, "Let's all go out and have tea by a lake". :) Wonderful idea!

Not those particular ones - those are promo shots.

However, I do have quite a few screen caps that I'll have to load to my webspace at some point, b/c they haven't made it over since I changed webhosts over a year ago.

But - depending on how much CPU it uses for the animated ones to work, it may lock up my ancient machine w/ it's 512MB RAM and senior status at 4+ yrs old.

I couldn't remember
 
Actually, right now, it needs a good solid 'optimization'... so it'll run faster.

I used to have a program that would alternate the desktop wallpapers at given intervals, but it ate up too much CPU, so, alas, it had to go. Instead, I switch 'em up about once a month or so.
 
It's been a while since I've seen it, so I can't quite remember, but is that from Lost?

And watching Final Fantasy things on YouTube, are we? :p
 
Yeah, nostalgia, nostalgia. I know you're not surprised. :rolleyes::D


(Hello, btw!)



And indeedy, you are correct. It's the blast door map from season 2 ('Lockdown', ep. 17 :p), and it certainly contains a secret or two.


I just watched series 4 at the end of last week, so it's all in my mind again. Though it was great, actually. I was worried that they might lose their way with it for a while (season 2 was hit and miss, too much superfluous stuff, IMO), but series 4 was excellent.
 
Series three started just as I went to university, so I didn't watch it then. Before that I watched it religiously and loved it.

Yeah, I can vaguely remember the map. It was the question mark in the middle that I remembered the most.

*Gives a wave in return*
 
Oh well, you can easily catch up with it all when you have the time. If you were loving it before, then I guarantee you'll be kept interested by what has happened (my lips are sealed... ;)).


Ah, the Question Mark, yes. We found out what that was in '?' (ep. 21), if you remember?

But there's a whole lot of stuff on there that still hasn't been explained, too; some of it tantalising indeed.
 
Seph, you are such a Lost geek...knowing all the episodes...:p

Yeah, once day I might get back into it. Maybe I'll just watch the last ever episode to find out what it was all about...:p
