  1. Man the thing is wicked. Got a turbo'd Volvo motor in it. Nice. Whoulda been cooler if was a Honda F22A1 motor instead. (S2000 motor) My first car: 1985 Pontiac Sunbird FastHatch. Ha, you thought it was a Honda. 4 options away from being the cheapest crappiest POS Sunbird you could get. It had AC (broken when I had it), Power Steering, Alloy wheels (yes, they were factory and rare at that), and an Automatic transmission. The SE version of it (mine was base plus a couple extra options as I've said) had a turbo and when I still had that car, I wanted to find one in the junkyard and jack the turb
  2. happy new new year to all of ya's New Year's firsts: First Song of the Year: Poets of the Fall - 3AM First computer used: Oddly enough, my old Compaq. Downstairs with my parents and I didn't feel like going upstairs to get the lappy. First thing watched on TV: Star Trek on TV Land First Website visited: TennSpeed.net (yeah, I was on it when the year changed) First anime watched on computer: It was either Air or Kateikyoushi Hitman Reborn. I can't remeber which. I think it was Air.
  3. Hey thanks man. It's pretty good. If anyone else cares to take a whack feel free to. This is great, thanks arachnid40
  4. I was wondering if anyone could make me a gif for my signature at my local auto forum. I would like for this picture to fade into this one I really like the job the fella that made the second one for me did but it's a little too faded but I had a great idea. why not have a gif that has the first one fading into the second the filling back into the first. maybe just the fade or just the fill. I'd like to have both. So would one of you kind Photoshop capable folks help me out here? Please. :puppydogeyes: Thank you.
  5. Ok I have a myspace, only folks on my list are people I either know in real life, people from good ole BT, or my buds from TennSpeed.net. Now you also have to take into account I am 18, a male, a gun enthusiast, and a car owner with a job, so I am not really at risk of anything. I trust my buds at TennSpeed cause they are in my state and we have scheduled real life meets. A big one is in May which is an auto show being held by one of the members employers. Again, I'm a gun enthusiast with a car, so I'm not worried. Plus it's an annual meet with large amounts of people showing up, plus you have
  6. you're kidding right. Man this teacher is dumb.
  7. Just so ya'll know this was the image I was trying to get. I was using this as my signature before but then another member made this one for me so I ended up going back to the bloody faced girl. Oh, my name on automotive forums is Techy. I started using that name on Honda-Tech cause it woulda been a little dumb for my name to Honda_Boy on there. Many members of TennSpeed are from Honda-Tech so I kept the same name.
  8. HP ain't bad. I've got an HP laptop that I bought for $400 off eBay when it was only like 6 months old. Sempron 2800, 512MB RAM, ATI Radeon Xpress 200m chipset. It gets the job done and can play Counter-Strike Condition Zero and the original Call of Duty so I'm happy with it. The guy who sold it to me was gracious enough to wipe the hard drive, reinstall windows, and reinstall all the factory software before shipping it. It was like getting it brand new straight from Hp.................. I immediately wiped the hard drive and installed windows again and left all the HP crap off. The thing runs
  9. I take pictures often (mostly car related or computer related) but I am no means a photographer. Man if want some good pictures, I've got some pals from TennSpeed.net to help me out. (Local Tennessee automotive forum). They got some good cameras and photoshop skills. You should see some of the pictures they take.
  10. NOOOO!!!! not manufactered. Build your own. I'm just kidding. I prefer to build my own but you might be better off buying a manufactured PC. I'm actually bout to build a new one for my church. The preacher got a hold of 2 new nForce2 400 mobo's and were gonna build 2 systems with them for the church computer lab we are starting.
  11. looks good to me. Where are you getting the cash for this anyway? dang man. I want something like that. I'm stuck with my Athlon 64 3500+, nForce4 SLIx16, 1GB PC3200, Twin 7600GT setup.
  12. I don't use any drugs and never will. I also don't smoke nor drink. I do not support legalization of any drug. Though I am not majorly anti marijuana. It would be the only drug that wouldn't bug me too much to be legalized because it's effects aren't too different from alcohol. It is actually proven that it does less damage overall to your body but affects the brain just as bad as alcohol, therefore I still do not condone it. We had a whole discussion on this in Contemporary Issues in high school. The teacher was a police officer so he knew what he was talking about. I knew that many of the ki
  13. Well it looks like neither DivX nor WinAmp have a built in screen shot function. so I'll try VLC. DivX is starting to tick me off though. I originally liked it better than WinAmp but now it some of my Videos won't work in it or will work better in WinAmp. Overall I still prefer it's interface over WinAmp. If I like VLC better I'll use it from now on. * I think I will stick with DivX. When I want screen shots I'll use VLC. I didn't care for it too much. Seemed to not cooperate with my system too well.
  14. Well I was trying to take a screen shot of something I was watching so I could make a cool signature for another forum and well it didn't quite work. I had it in full screen mode and I pushed Print Screen. I opend paint and clicked paste well it would have just a big black space and then when I took the video out of full screen (I still had the player in the back ground running cause I was listening to the opening song) I noticed that the video was playing with the player minimized (same size as when not in full screen) on the this space. Well I thought lemme save this and see what happens. I
  15. The song is Wizards of Winter I think by Trans-Siberian Orchestra What is so awesome about this, is there is actually someone in town with a similar set up. They had a sign that said "Tune to 102.1 for music". We tuned to it and we timed it just right. Christmas Eve/Sarajevo (Carol of the Bells) by Trans-Siberian Orchestra was just starting. The lights lit up in time with the music. It was awesome. Then after that it played Feliz Navidad. Apparently my manager's grandparents live next door to them. he says the guy has it hooked up to his computer.
  16. well forget the lock. I think my dad shut the door to hard and knocked it loose again and I ain't taken the stupid door apart again. I might however take apart the passenger door so I can see the lock on it and see how it stays on.
  17. yeah, my hatchback was what kinda replaced all my gifts this year. That and the clutch for it too. The $3000 dropped on my dad's truck's new transmission and clutch also put a dent in Christmas. Oh well. I still got my hatchback and it's doin fine. I even fixed my driver side lock on Christmas. That was a nice present. I can actually open it from the driver side when it's locked.
  18. well of course due to money issues, this year wasn't the greatest but hey, it's about family and the birth of Christ. I did get some decent things. It's always been a thing for my parents to leave one or 2 presents out unwrapped for me and my bro so since he wasn't there this year just 2 for me. First was a 1/32 Die Cast PzKpfw IV Ausf. G (Panzer IV Variant G) and sitting with it was a military style camo hoodie. After that when opening presents, I got the CD I wanted (and boy did I ever hint for this). Poets of the Fall: Signs of Life. I also got some more camo clothes plus a J!NX hoodie tha
  19. well, I fixed my driver side lock................for now. The little thing that hooks the outside keyhole to the actual lock had fallen off. I can't seem to get it on securely but as long as I'm nor rambunctious it should be fine. Finally I can get in my car after locking from the driver side. I still havn't put the hatch on. Bad weather has hindered my plans.
  20. Oh my lord, that is awful. I hope they catch the bastard and bring justice to him.
  21. Well today I did the stupidest thing in the world. I went to Wal-Mart. Didn't find a damn thing. While leaving there was massive traffic. I was already PO'ed when I get to this one intersection there were 2 people sitting there with a little pup. One was holding up a sign that said "On the road. hard times blah blah blah" Well since I was already pissed at the traffic and this one person I was trying to let go first wasn't paying a damn bit of attention and these morons on the side of the road seemed to be either scammers or lazy bums that shouldn't have left their houses in the first place, I

    Hi

    howdy and welcome new friend. This forum is the nicest place on the net. Enjoy your stay here and we hope to see you as a regular.
  23. What kinda stuff have ya'll gotten so far. I've already gotten a few early gifts. my manager gave me this cool shirt. I kind wish he woulda remembered which car I have (96 EK) but the thing is I want one of these so bad. A girl at work also gave me 2 CD's. Queensryche: The Warning and Queensryche: Rage for Order. Originals too, not remasters. There's another girl at work I gave a mini gift to. She likes it when I sing in Japanese so I brought in my laptop with some Anime on it. All the opening and closing themes have karaoke to them so I played them and sang along and she loved it. Tomorrow i
  24. I still need to shop for like 2 or 3 more people. One's a girl at work though. She gave me 2 CD's and though she said I didn't have to get her anything, it just feels wrong for her to give me something and me not give anything back. Another is my manager. He gave me a T-Shirt so I'm gonna find one for him. The other is my best friend which I thought of the perfect gift too late. So now I wanna find something in town he might like.
  25. heck I'm just 18 and I hate goin out shopping at this time. I hate Wally world more than any of them. I went to Advance Auto to get my brother some tools to keep in his truck and it was bliss. Calm and quite with a nice and guy at the register. I also bought some new sidemarkers to replace my busted up ones. Had to take my fender apart to install one of them. Lowes wasn't bad either but we ended up not getting anything. Sears was OK too. Me and my dad got some crap for my mom there. What sucked though was when my Mom and I went to good ole Wally World a few days ago to get my dad a DVD box set
