Nice PLA stickers, Trevelyn!



Spessa stole me the AT&T mousepad from an AT&T store as the clerks back was turned.  The lightning globe is hooked to the switchbox on the front of the desk, along with some black lights, to a switch labeled 1980s.  I had waffles for breakfast.

BTW, welcome back, Rucas.  Where'd you disappear to for more than 2 years?

MIB, what's your screen resolution set to?  Unless it's 800 x 600, phonelosers.org isn't supposed to be scrolling like that.  And CLEAN YOUR ROOM!

brad: you have some expensive looking mic's!
MIB: yeah you are stretched really bad, you should make it a widescreen ratio, since it is a widescreen monitor.

Rucus has a PLA sticker there too on his desk.   My monitor has them on the back of it too.  Dakuwan put one on a black coffee mug and gave it to me, which looks pretty cool.

My screen ratio is at 600x800. For some reason most pictures I post here have side scrolling and others don't.

Trevelyn how do I set it to a wide screen ratio? The monitor is actually a flat screen TV with a PC input.

Edit To Add: I used Photbucket's re-sizing to make the picture a reasonable size.

That's Mike at his desk. He has some dual-core piece of crap desktop that he hates using for photoshop, and an Acer One netbook piece of gay. Both suit him.

Our room is pretty small, and I only have a beat up old Thinkpad. So I usually just hang out on the bed.

My own mediocre attempt at humor has been highly amusing to myself. right click on the empty desktop and click "Properties" then click "Settings" and choose a widescreen setting by sliding the little bar over! :)

He's using a TV as a monitor, Trev.

Now, here is where you might get a little disappointed. Your TV's usual video signal is called NTSC (PAL if you live in Europe). This signal is different than the one generated by your computer. Computers use signals measured by pixels: 320x200, 320x240, 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024 or 1600x1200. Most TV's can only get about 500 lines of resolution, in computers this is like 500 vertical pixels. The video amplifiers in televisions cannot handle higher resolutions either. So when you factor these things together you are left with a maximum resolution of 640x480.

it was a really high nice resolution too.

I think attaching the image gives a thumbnail. Or you could just upload to ImageShack and use their thumbnail forum code. Or just upload a small thumbnail to wherever, post it in an img tag, and surround that img tag with a url tag to the full image.
