[quote who="joasoze" reply="1" id="3563675"] Got an error when I tried to join you! [/quote] That happened to me when I tried to join a friend in that thing once too. It worked again when I just hit play. After that though it makes a bot of you that keeps playing when you're not earning gold. Just pop on it every day for the sale and spend the gold on upgrades for the thing and it'll help unlock more deals on it's own. I think the majority of the things that p

Here's Khorne's portrait: Firey glow looks good on the portrait. Loaded up a full faction to make sure it looks good. His leaderFG with this portrait and the background from Zim plus the Khorne logo. All ties together nicely :) . Haven't tested how the leaderFG will look with a glow on the background yet but I'll check that out before

Was going to go with one of these: Or I've got some good close-ups of the bluer one too, but if flesh is accurate that first one looks pretty awesome.

That Khorne portrait will be up some time tonight, I'll add a red fire-ish glow to him for the portrait and I'll try a FG variant and see if I can match it up with that background and it still look good. Got a question on Abaddon. I've found a couple good pics to work with, problem is he has a shin tone variant or alt. In some pics he has a flesh toned head, and in others a blue skinned head. Both sets look cool as hell, but accuracy counts and I don't know whi

[quote who="Krazikarl" reply="10" id="3563616"] Who gets credit for the discovery? The person who funded the discovery, the person who made the observation, the person who reduced the data, the person who analyzed the data, or the person who oversaw the whole operation? Historically, the credit has gone to the last category (usually the principal investigator). But nowadays the credit is getting spread around more. In any case, the point is that there is almost ne

We've lost a lot of creative legends over the last few years. At least BB got to live a long life and wasn't taken before his time like so many others. His legacy will live on forever though. Even after the Earth is nothing more than a burned out rock toasted bare by the sun, his music will still be travelling on radio waves broadcast outward from our planet. Provided they never dissipate then he and his music will truly be immortal no matter how history plays out here on Earth in the

[quote who="Krazikarl" reply="6" id="3563376"] But that's the point. There is no process for naming exoplanets beyond the number-letter process unless you simply petition the IAU to get a popular name. I don't believe that any exoplanets have received non number letter names although I think that the IAU announced that some would in the near future. Just because you discovered a planet as part of a giant survey doesn't mean that you get to name it (for

Steam's Monster Summer Sale is going on right now. They have a mini-game attached to the sale this time. The better your team does, the more sales you unlock. Some good prices going on right now. Keep an eye on a title you might want for a while too as more things go on sale.

Grim Dawn is probably one of the best Diablo clones out. Just as deep and cool as Diablo in my book, and far cheaper. Plus with Grim Dawn, if you stop playing for a while, you don't have to worry about Korean hackers taking over your account.

I've got a video of myself rocking but it's on Facebook, not YouTube. Not sure how to link it. Probably best for you guy's ears anyways..lol.

You mean that isn't anything more than a kids joke? If it's a kids joke, ok sure. If people take that seriously though, well...people are f'ing stupid. When I look behind at the generations behind mine, fewer and fewer of them look like they're trying to actually have a future. More and more it looks as though if you aren't born into money chances are you'll never have any even if you do follow the American Dream and work hard for it all your life. These kids coming up

[quote who="Krazikarl" reply="4" id="3563344"] People don't really give special names to things like exoplanets unless they are REALLY important for some reason. Its great that he discovered this, but a random hot Jupiter is going to stay named WASP-142b (the article doesn't really know what its talking about here - it has been named as far as the IAU is concerned https://www.iau.org/public/themes/nami

[quote who="Christian_Akacro" reply="34" id="3563336"] Looks great! If anything Khorne should have a red glow, Nurgle green, Slaanesh purple, and Tzeentch blue. But I'd rather them look awesome without a glow than shitty with a glow. [/quote] True. We just got lucky on the Imperial and Necron's glow. The Emperor's glow looks good with his background, the Necron glow looks good on that greenish-blue background. With Zim's background there Khorne could look

Added some more. Also the background here isn't mine. It's from 00zim00 's Starship Troopers pics http://imgur.com/a/3aJyo#0 , but Khorne looks awesome standing on it so I mirrored it on the photobucket. Credit for that bac

[quote who="EleventhStar" reply="1" id="3563279"] We can only hope he names it something only a 15 year old can come up with. [/quote] HA...the names I would have come up with back then. Probably a pretty bright kid who wants a respected career in the field some day though so I bet he names it something boring.

[quote who="Gauntlet03" reply="55" id="3563220"] Also, @RavenX, I'll try to do a video tonight (I have more B5 Minbari ships done to show off) and discuss methods and such... but yeah... I don't think I'm using any shortcuts my friend! [/quote] That's good stuff, brother. Much appreciated.

Yes scaling down looks good. The most detailed pics are the ones that start big and then scale down. I mean the reverse, don't pick a small image like 400x300 and want a 1920x1080 out of it, that would look horrible and be pixelated. Scaling down good, scaling up from a small source bad. The white still being in the logo was probably a lack of refresh or something. I've noticed these forums being a bit buggy/laggy at showing things updated. The edit fix and repost of the image took me

[quote who="Gauntlet03" reply="51" id="3563130"] I'm afraid you've been tricked by my videos good sir! My recorder hides the mouse, I know no keyboard shortcuts. Sorry! [/quote] I thought that might be possible, but at the same time I'm like "Geez is this dude The Flash? No, he's holding a alt key or something."..lol. Really, no "Copy" shortcut or nothing? I know there were rotation shortcuts in GC2 I just can't re

Pretty good article on Huff Post today. This kid found a planet a 1000 light years away. Pretty cool. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/11/15-year-old-new-planet-tom-wagg-hot-jupiter_n_7559158.html?ir=Good+News&ncid=fcbklnkushpmg00000023 <img src="http://i.huffpost.com/gen/3059524/thumbs/o-NEW-PL

Oh, for the backgrounds, I'm just picking pics from those races/factions that I think look cool and that are big enough to make a background with. If either of you have any Favorite pictures you want me to convert into backgrounds those especially just put a link to the pic here and I'll use it. Those are really easy to do because all I have to do is resize them and save them as PNGs. So you find your favorite pics for those and I can do those in lik

See the grey and white checkerboard behind the mark there? That's the clear transparency. It's indeed fixed. Delete the one you're using and re-download. Should work fine. Try deleting the other one you have saved, refresh, and try again.

[quote who="Christian_Akacro" reply="26" id="3563102"] Did you reupload the image? Because the one on the forum here, and on photobucket, still have the whitespace. [/quote] Yeah I sure did. I don't see the white parts on the Mark of Khorne on the other page in my post. One on photobucket is fixed too. Didn't get no karma for your mark :P

Yeah it doesn't have to Transform, just look like fully formed Voltron. I don't think it can be done, so I thought I'd throw the challenge out there. Loved Voltron as a kid. [quote who="18Zulukiller" reply="1" id="3563098"] [e digicons]:grin:[/e] Bloody hell that brings back memories, I had that transformer as a kid back in the 80's. It was a mixture of metal and plastic about 12 to 15 inches high and split in to five different smaller transformers. The

Think you can do it?

Hey Gauntlet can you do a tutorial vid on the keyboard shortcuts for the ship creator? I see you using some scroll button shortcuts for changing sizes and what not and can't figure out what they are or what key you're holding. I have to make all the clicks manually aside from hovering over the knobs and using the wheel. It would be greatly appreciated.
