Ah...only in America...

Hardly practical....if you dropped it you'd need a darn crane to get it up again....

Jafo we could just sit and listen to the beautiful sound it must make.

I wouldn't want to reck on it though.. 300mph... Hell, hit something in a car at that speed and see what happens. This you have nothing around you. How far do you think you'll travel in the air before you hit the ground?

2000 ft.

Did you figure it out or did you guess?

I guessed .
Thanks for asking but may be its time to make a new thread.
About skinning!!!

A misc thought one?

Man, my project is still rendering. I think it's been 1hour and a half. It's on 14% anti-alasing

Weaksid
Your gona Have to talk in laymans tirms with me I'm a newbee but I want to learn.
Hope that doesn't put you off?

Weaksid....let's hope it's not a wasted wait...
I threw a Bryce together...5 minutes of button pushing and a 45 minute wait....
Result?
I wasted 45 minutes of my life....I could have been pulling nose-hairs....much more rewarding...

Jafo, the preview of what I'm rendering just in a bigger size is at http://weaksid.deviantart.com

lben, and what I was talking about is the Rendering time. It's what the program does to add all the color and fine details. You could say make the pixels smaller

O' I forgot to specify it's my latest addition. The Office Hell. My bad

Jam

I have refrained from posting most first responses and end up editing them down or out right deleting them

Yah I do think to much and do not sleep much either, mmm, "I" = "Plural"

So there is always a lot going on between my ears

Weaksid, did you see that guy on Discovery Speed chanel who was attempting to break the land speed record on a custom designed and built Kawi? he was cranking and had it just under wide open on the first pass, but it is a series of passes and they adverage them out for the actual speed record.

Anyway on his second pass the back tire melted just after he opened it all the way up and the bike road him off and on for something like 150 - 200 yards. He looked like a rag doll some kid had thrown out a car window on the interstate or something, flopping all around, just knew he was goig to be dead. But all that happened was he got banged up bruised rib's and broke an ankle and either his forearm or wrist and was stiff as hell.

Later in the show they went to his house and they had not yet pulled the bike out, dang thing was only 3 feet long, what was left of it, and there wasn't any part that was not dented or scratched.

freaking looney you ask me !

Jafo , I went to accept in ICQ when I notied the request had popped up, but I found out a neat thing at that very moment. I wasn't on the net anymore really, seems Nortons Proxy was hung so I am not even sure exactly when it came in, the request because I had left for a bit a couple of different times and was working on a server install on the bench across the room.

just wanted you to know I did not ignore it or avoid it

eeerrrrrrr Weaksid .... never happen my friend.
If the bloody thing fell over you'd need a very large crane to pick it up!
I guess you could learn the meaning of 'terminal understeer' real quick.
Love my new bike, only a v-twin but it is a goer and a handler!!!!
Jafo .... did you see that dumb-arse repro Vincent HRD 1000??
Never any good in the first place, now some idiot has decided there is a market for them.
Any bike with oil lines running outside the crankcase is not clever for a start .... then again, look at the sales of Hogs to males out here going through a mid life crisis (and about A$25,000.!!)
The green flaggie eh?
That's the let 'er rip Ollie one.
No sense, no feeling?
I managed to get busted for speeding (only a little!) on the way home .... no sense, no brains and nearly no license!

i do not see how it could corner really, though it looks neat as can be

I know, the design is awesome. I'm thinking that the turning is going to be like the new cars. All 4wheels turn.

ok, here's my take on this. I love the free part of this website. It sux that it dropped to 50mb when it seems like the other day it was 150mb but I do understand that something has to pay for this site. But some of us REALLY can't afford it. I DO have a sugestion though. For skinners there is no cap correct? well to tel you the truth, I'm trying to learn how to skin. I'm working on my first sys metrix skin (I know!! baby stuff!!) but what if there were some kind of part of this web site that taught a lil about skinning? I mean that way the people who REALLY can't afford it can contribute in OTHER ways. I mean If I could skin, you better believe I would upload every skin I made. That way wincustomize get's lots of skins and the people that can't afford to pay can download with no cap. The reason I download so much is cause I fail to find "that perfect skin" which of course is mostly due to my extremely pickiness, and that's one reason why I want to learn skinning. I mean I know it's a long shot and probably doesn't make too much sense but I just REALLY want to contribute in other ways than money. Not so much as to remove my cap but so much as to help keep this site alive. Sorry I know this is a long one.

P.S. might sound like babling or not make too much sense I'm sick and quite tired. Sorry.

Well, to be honest. I don't work at all. Due to reasons that I'm not getting into right now. I paid for my 2year thing just a couple weeks ago even though I am a graphics' maker and doing skins. I have a set income also. I don't remember the cap being 150, when I joined it was 100 and I hit that cap. But more you comment on things, interact with the site. The more you can download. At least that's the way it was. Now I have unlimited even though I had to pay for it. I didn't get any rank higher yet from my help with the site yet. But I'm working on it. I've put graphics and skins on so far and I'm usually always in the messageboard. The FAQ and any other help files you can find will tell you what all you have to do to get more bandwidth.
That's all for the moment. I'm munching so I can't think straight.. Need more Pepsi

Thanks Weaksid, I'll look into it...I'm trying my first sys metrix theme now since I can't seem to find one I like. harder than I thought. I can't seem to get the outline of magic pink off images.

Haven't tried that program yet. The hardest to get put up is wallpapers. But if you get one up, then it was really good.
And no problem. If you need help. Just ask people in the messageboard. There are many that are glad to help.

Wombat....
Nearly blew your ticket?....not so clever...

Yes, saw the 'Vincents'.....heck of a lot of custom machining in them.....the 'older' bikes had style, but so does the 'Senna', and the other MV's were as cute as a pin, as they say...

There is no cap for skinners? If so, i could submit stuff, i was starting to work on a few things I wouldnt mind sharing.

sounds good i'd love to see your stuff... what programs have you skinned for???
