Seriously man, How long did this take? It's f**king welllll good And I agree / take your point about the gifs. They're tiny in size and to be honest aesthetics are what make your site better than most, so no point compromising them

Teenage Angst Communal Agony Aunt Thread
Dai the Socket replied to Has anyone seen my shoe?'s topic in Chit Chat
I want a girl I can't have. I'm pretty sure she wants me. Liked her for about 2 years but she's had a boyf so could do f**k all. They're year above too so I'd get brayed if I did anything avec her and he found out. He treats her like shit. We were talking in her car from about 11 til 1am last night. Steamed up the windows and everything. I want her so bad -
Aww Jonny thanks! That made me smile! It's a shame I can't ride for shit. And yeah, Ali's awsome, came higher than Akrigg in the last Brits I think? And Stan's smooooth as f**kkk and huge

Looks really nice actually. When it first stated up and I noticed it was flash, I expected to be unimpressed, but actually you've used it well. Changing information content is swish, quick and looks pretty. I really like it.

Why don't you 2 chip in then. Surely they're not that expensive are they?

Right. Here we go. A few riding and some random ones from Back Cowm in Rochdale... They're in a really random order. PS didn't open them sensibly Comments and Critacism welcomed. What a babe. And iolo What a pro. He's got an amazing Tripod There we go. 27 pics.

Cheers. None are with a fisheye, 'cos that really distorts horizontals and verticals, but they are on a 10mm -20mm wide angle lens. I didn't have time to set up my cam for his bail so it was a bit over exposed cos it was mega bright. Gutted. Still really funny That'll teach him to 380 on walls hehe.. Cheers Wayne. Yeah he's a monster. The telephone box one was a beast. Gap from wall to phone box frontwheel / 2 wheels, rag up to backwheel, drop off. Completed it on the second attempt of him ever trying it. Wickid! Photoshop did that. On film cameras you can do 'multiple exposures' and use a tripod and it just imprints 2 photos onto one photo if you get me. You can't do it with digital, so I just stayed still, used same settings, copied the right onto the photo on the left then cleaned it up around his wheel. Looks nice IMO. I did use my posh new lens. Erm. It was sooo bright that day at midday with the sun right above us, we couldn't get away from it, so I couldn't really take advantage of the low 2.8 F number. Had to have most of them on 1/2000 shutter and like F8! The photos later on in the day came out better! I'll get editing the Back Cowm photos. There's a few of Stan Shaw and Adam@TB's which look nice. Stan's bike is sooooo beautiful

Oh and to quote Ali "any mods caught within 10 yards of me will have their tyres slashed". I have a photo of him on a mod Yeah it is natural. It's near rocks

Sorry for so many :$ I just picked the good ones of the 380 we took on the afternoon ride ... more at backcowm this eye Here's a few, I'll be adding more when I get time Here's Ali And here's him falling Now, proper photos... Edit: A quick preview of the natty pics

I'd come to get some shit hot photos of you boys in action but Waynio'd 'smash my face in' so doesn't look like I am.

f**k meeee. Those cars look like they handel like a beast. The guy in the M5 seemed to cut it within inches of some cars changing lines. Mad fanny. Stull f**king amazing

Wtf. You don't need one. Stupidest. Topic. Ever. * *Apart from NMC ones.

Indeed. Low F number, increased apature, faster shutter speed. More apature (lower F number therefore letting more light into your sensor) means less depth of field. Meaning you've got less in focus, so the background is out of focus. Hence why Rob, Chris and myself would die for anything with an F number of less than 2 I've just got a F2.8 lens and it's pretty shit hot Wireless ay? Liking it. A bit too powerful though, you're made the wb too contrasty

Noble M12. Cheap, and a f**king beast:

Looks nice. Like the paint job, it looks really vivid blue! BB looks like +5* or something Not +35*

Sounds like you're bitching about a brand which isn't your sponsors. Who do we recommend we buy from, Koxx? Exactly. Can't agree more. If it's not Koxx, it's no good. Seems like a bit of a cock if you ask me -
I agree, however have noticed quite a few people on here who when asked what frame they'd ride, would always suggest a particular brand - through their full range - which they are sponsored by. It's a bit annoying people plugging their own stuff all the time. There's a couple of good examples on here but I won't delve into an argument.

Lightbox ay? Looks good..

I actually like it. -
Looks like it's a bit over exposed or white balance needs altering a little bit, but a great action shot Dave. Like the angle You didn't use flash for that did you?
-
Nah. Saf's alright.

Oh. Bad idea using: as an image, Try find a web-safe suitable font and use that. Pages load sloowwwww if they're like that. I'm not too sure I like the idea of your initial navigation on the bottom either. As Danny said on MSN, it does seem to be a 'splash' page at the start without you having a real hard look around for the navigation information. Also it doesn't really explain much. Your image sequance button is a very good idea, but I doubt many people have found it. It's not obvious at all.

I thought that. One of your very early on designs actually inspired me to start learning how to get good at website design and construction, and this is literally amazing. Your vectoring looks like it's taken ages, and is really amazing. Great combinations of colours. Information's good, photography looks really good and I haven't checked the W3C Xhtml stuff but from what I've had a look it's coded pretty swishly. Iframe I think though? Incredible graphics, you really are good at that, and design it seems! Anyway. Yeah. I love it. Really good. Given me a coupel of fresh ideas for sides actually! Nick Carter

Mac's don't have right clicks. Anyway. Back to photos Timple..

Easier way: Replace Apple for Control on a PC or something.. Photoshop; Apple C (copy layer) Apple V (paste duplicate layer) Layer > Layer Style > Stroke. Select black, 5 - 8px or whatever you want, then click 'inside' for where you want it. Ta dar.
