Discuss The Cartographer's Tale - Underground [PG]
Dragon Warrior replied to Dragon Warrior's topic in Theater
[img]http://img56.echo.cx/img56/5628/laugh3ol.gif[/img] Haha, I don't plan for any romance in this, so no worries. It's not the fact that I want characters to fall for each other, it truely is the fact that in past RPGs, I've seen people of the other gender do horribly playing their opposite sex. I have seen people do it correctly (and register with a nice sign up), but I often see people over dramatizing the opposite sex's role or doing it wrong completely. Since someone of their own sex would know their gender best, I had put that in there. I'm sorry if this saddens you, but It's just how I am. Besides, this RPG isn't much. It was a really old idea I had a few years back that I never did and I just wanted to throw it out for try. I hope you understand. Oh, and to Kitty: Yes, characters will have swords or axes or what have you. No magic. Philippe simply has a staff that he really doesn't intend to use for fighting.

Just some of my latest work featuring a line that I assume is rather sly. Comment if you'd like to. This shall now take a special place in my sig. [VIEW THE ATTACHMENT] [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

I don't remember them sucking at all. I even remember parts of the beginning song where Mario and Luigi were plumbing and then hopped down the bathtub drain. Haha, wow... I really want to experience that show again, crappy or not. But I'm afraid I don't recall this Robin Hood character. I only found one Mario DvD on Amazon called "Super Mario Brothers: King Koopa." And the episodes aren't in order. I want them to release some boxsets someday. But now I'm investigating these Zelda cartoons. I'm incredibly intrigued. EDIT: I also found "Super Mario Brothers: Mario Mania." But I wonder if these are the shows that I remember watching on TNT. [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

I dunno if anyone remembers (but I'm sure someone does), but there were those good ole Nintendo toons when I was little like the Mario Brothers show and Zelda (which I actually never saw). Plus, Sonic, even if he's Sega. I'm aware the old Sonic is still being aired, but I haven't seen Mario since I was a tike and I've never seen Zelda. Does anyone know when Mario will come out on DvD, if ever? Same with Zelda. Otherwise, I guess you can discuss the old shows here [img]http://img56.echo.cx/img56/3333/happy4wb.gif[/img] [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

Good, we have some sign ups coming along. But I still need a horseman sign up [img]http://img56.echo.cx/img56/5017/wink0ql.gif[/img] But still feel free to sign up as anything else if you wish. [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

I've actually taken the liberty of submitting this as an article on theOtaku.com as a humorous Original Anime one, but I doubt they'll add it. We'll see in a matter of days. Otherwise, thanks for the comments [img]http://img56.echo.cx/img56/3333/happy4wb.gif[/img] [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

[center][img]http://img220.echo.cx/img220/2479/cartographerstale9lb.jpg[/img][/center] It took place long ago. A world coasted with forests of trees and seas of crisp and beautiful water. The world of Roanledge lived on in peace and prosperity. The inhabitants of this land worked hard every day to keep themselves happy and busy. And of course, there was the scum that dared to wander the same fields as the innocent. This scum was sworn off the land by a warrior of unmatchable abilities and skill, wielding an amazingly heroic sword and shield that were his trademarks. This hero was Toloose. His legend shall forever live on, even after what people believed to be his uncanny death while fighting the Flaming Beast of Boharama in the South Mountains of Tobarith. But some wisemen thought they knew better. Nevertheless, the sword and shield were lost with Toloose?s perished form. Only his one companion and true loyal friend, Wendull, knew of his whereabouts, but was suffering a nasty illness caused by the mountain air of Tobarith. He inscribed a map before dying a few days after returning to the small village of Alecynth. The map was written in old tongue and was unreadable by anyone in the village. It was instead sent by a man on horse across the countryside in search of a skilled cartographer who was versed in this ancient language. If this horseman finds the right man or woman for the job, perhaps they can uncover the sword and shield of the fallen hero Toloose? or even more importantly, finds Toloose himself. But what scum lies on the journey across Roanledge we?re soon to find out. [center] ? ? ? ? ? ? ? [/center] Welcome to the whimsical tale of a cartographer (map maker) named Philippe Wintassel and his incredible journey accompanied by four others in search of the lost sword and shield of Toloose. As mentioned above, there are bad guys in this (of course) and they will be like a woodland mafia. Robbers, crooks, murderers, you name it. When signing up, you are one of the four companions of Philippe?s, which includes the horseman who arrives with the map. Just take into consideration all the things I?m about to say and make sure you follow the rules of the RPG and the forum. Thank you. [b]If You?re Playing The Horseman:[/b] The horseman can be male or female, it matters not. They work for the Council of Roanledge who sent them to find a skilled cartographer. That?s all you must keep in mind. They?re a messenger for the Council of Roanledge. [b]If You?re Playing The Other Three:[/b] These people will be citizens of Philippe?s village. It?s a fairly large village for Roanledge, so they must be somehow trained in fighting. Guarding their village in an attack from an enemy is what they may help with when the time comes. You can?t be a little kid who just got his first tooth and expect to kick some major patoosh out there. [b]EVERYONE:[/b] Everyone is competing for a spot in this RPG. I?m not going to be as strict as I have been in the past, but I would like good quality stuff here, nevertheless. This includes checking your grammar and spelling before posting, people! [center] ? ? ? ? ? ? ? [/center] [u]The Sign Up[/u] [b]Name:[/b] Make it medieval like how I have with all the previous names mentioned. No Japanese. [b]Age:[/b] No kids. Philippe is twenty-eight. You don?t have to be that old, but I prefer twenties and up, please. No kid would set out on a dangerous mission like this. [b]Gender:[/b] If you?re a girl, play a girl. If you?re a guy, play a guy. Please. [b]Occupation:[/b] If you?re the horseman, put ?Messenger for Council of Roanledge.? Otherwise, you?re free to make a town occupation. There?s a link at the bottom of this post for a site with medieval occupations. Great source! [b]Appearance:[/b] It?s a poor town, so chances are you won?t be dressed for success. If you?re a lowlife like a blacksmith, you?ll probably be in rags. If you?re a thief, definitely rags. A town guard might have some nicer clothes and not so raggedy. Think about it. Use some common sense. [b]Personality:[/b] What are they like, dude? [b]Any Other Information:[/b] This doesn?t have to necessarily be history of the character. Perhaps you want to reveal some history in the RPG, so? here just add in anything you think is appropriate to know about your character. Length here will not decide whether you get in or not, so don?t worry about how much content you place. [center] ? ? ? ? ? ? ? [/center] [u]Philippe?s Sign Up[/u] [b]Name:[/b] Philippe Wintassel (pronounced Fuh-Leep Wintassel) [b]Age:[/b] Twenty-Eight [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Appearance:[/b] He wears the same thing daily since he doesn?t make too much money in his village for crafting maps (no one really goes anywhere and no one really comes to his town). His normal apparel consists of a white poet?s shirt, a black-brown vest, a long green robe, brown pants, and rotting black cloth boots. He?s young, but his hair is beginning to go from a dark brown to a lighter brown. His features still look young, but he often has a stern expression. [b]Personality:[/b] Philippe is one of the most generous and gentlemanly citizens of his village. He may even do the right thing when the consequences on himself are extremely high. He?s twenty-eight, but acts as wise as a man in his old age and always seems to be a commanding leader. He?d make a great father if he ever bothered to marry and have kids, but his busy life over parchment and ink (though he hardly sells any maps) has kept him away from such matters. He always tries to please and works hard, though it seems he?s never having fun. He should get more of a life. [b]Any Other Information:[/b] His work as a cartographer in his small town doesn?t really profit, but since he?s so kind to some citizens, he gets by from the kindness given back. Though he hates it when people do such a thing. He swears to become more famous across Roanledge because he believes he has the skills to become a grand map maker. His chance finally rises when his abilities are needed to find the legendary sword and shield of Toloose. [center] ? ? ? ? ? ? ? [/center] That?s all. Good luck to you all and we?ll see how things turn out. A link to some [URL=http://www.prenticenet.com/news/2001/medieval_occupations.htm]Medieval Occupations[/URL].

[center][img]http://img79.echo.cx/img79/8976/zorrothread3cy.jpg[/img][/center] Greetings. This is a thread I've been meaning to start because... well, ye know... Zorro is the shiz. If you don't think so too, get out of here. Good, now that only cool people are left, discuss Zorro here! Speaking of Zorro, I really liked [b]The Mask of Zorro[/b] and have been awaiting the sequel ever since it came out. Now it's here at last! Mark your calendars, boys and girls, for [u]SEPTEMBER 23rd, 2005[/u], which is the opening day of the hot new film [b]The Legend of Zorro,[/b] yet again starring Antonio Bandares and Catherine Zeta-Jones. It appears to be about (from the trailer I saw) how a new enemy has emerged, of course, but now his son has grown up a little and his son doesn't really know who Antonio is. He doesn't know he's Zorro. So... yeah...

It also appears Anthony Hopkins is in it [spoiler]but because he died in [b]The Mask of Zorro,[/b] I'm assuming he's just there for flashbacks or what-have-you.[/spoiler] [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

[quote name='Shadow Blade']Big Star Wars Fan Right Here!![/quote] Just to give you the heads up before you get into any trouble or anything, you might want to make your posts both lengthier and have more meaning to them than stating the simply fact that you like "Star Wars." ;) But anyways, I was wondering if Luke and Leia would be mentioned at all in this. I'm sure that Darth Vader wouldn't get busy with zee Queen, so... Perhaps it'll be unmentioned and you'll just assume she had them after the episode is over. I'm just talking to myself here...

Heh, I'm sorry, but most of this stuff is true. But hey, it is ranty and if rants aren't what you like, I'm not surprised you disliked it like you did. Oh, well. At least you like my other stuff ;) Thanks for the... weird comments, people. [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

[size=1]This is simply a short article I wrote on people being dumb on instant messengers, chat rooms, and the internet in particular. I'm sure some of you can relate to situations where you've met some people like the following... enjoy this humorous look on the subject.[/size] [center][b][size=4]Why Primitive People Should Not Be Able To Download Instant Messengers[/b][/size][/center] [b][u]Introduction:::[/u][/b] Why shouldn?t primitive people be able to download instant messengers you may ask yourself one fine Sunday afternoon in July when the weather is decently fair and you find yourself dining on a delectable piece of pecan pie (of course, you realize you hate pecan pie and discard the disgusting dessert). Well, the answer to that unnecessarily long question is quite unnecessarily simple. You see, primitive is a nicer way of saying someone is flippin? stupid and when you state that primitive people should not be able to download instant messengers, you?re just saying stupid people shouldn?t have instant messengers and instead should be beaten with a chair leg. If chair legs aren?t available at the time being, simply blast the said person into outer space to die of suffocation. What do I have against primitive people having instant messengers? Why, it?s because primitive people use them wrong or stupidly, ergo that?s why they?re primitive. Primitive people do primitive things primitively. I shall now go into further detail unless you choose not to read any longer, which I wouldn?t blame you if you did because things are about to get terribly boring. [b][u]The Chain Letters:::[/u][/b] Ghastly things, chain letters. Forged by Satan and spat out of Hell, chain letters invade the World Wide Web with their sinister plot to annoy and continue to annoy across the Internet. They hardly vary in anything original to say, but you can guarantee you?ll receive one almost every day of the foreboding week. If you work a crappy cubicle job that pays two dollars a week, then chain letters are your sign from God to give up and die already. To put it plainly, chain letters are either about relationships, getting laid, some child who died and will eat your heart or toes if you don?t send this to fifty million people, or things very similar containing all three of the previous stated. And who starts these chain letters? Primitive people. Or bored people. But the people that are bored are so bored that their brain cells deplete from being so bored, therefore becoming stupid and as we already stated, stupid equals primitive. Voila, they?re primitive people anyways. If you?re one of those people, I don?t care. I stand by what I said. Now assuming you?re not so sheltered that you haven?t seen or touched a computer before, you must have read or witnessed some innocent victim receiving a chain letter. The horrible things will state one of the previously stated ?junk? and expect you to send the same chain letter to everyone you have on your list so it spreads like a cold in the dead of winter. Quite frankly, people actually obey the call of the chain letter and assume the position of unleashing its wrath onto the unsuspecting people of their buddy list. I?m not necessarily saying that the people that forward the chain letters are primitive too. I?m just stating that they?re less primitive than the ones who make the chain letters, but equally primitive to a broom closet. What is it about chain letters that is so appealing? Is it fun? Do they actually think if they send it to fifteen people that their true love will waltz up to them the next day and mack on them for five minutes straight? Or maybe they?re still one of those bored people who?s brain cells are depleting and they need something to fulfill their rotten lives of nothingness? These could all be reasons since people vary, as they say, but if you qualify for any of them, I?m afraid I must pronounce you as ?a very sad person, indeed.? Being a very sad person, indeed, is indeed sad. You should avoid becoming one at all costs, so when you see a chain letter, use the few brain cells left in your head (assuming they haven?t all disappeared into nothingness) and discard the chain letter, whether it?s in your offline messages, e-mail, or in an instant message. But what if you can?t contain yourself, you may ask? Or what if you have already turned to the dark side? I?m afraid that if you?ve already become a chain letterian? chain letterer? chain LETTERAN? then there?s no hope for you left. If you feel the need to contribute to the chain letters, but you aren?t into it just yet, have some friends who are not primitive help you avoid its pull. Get out there and do what kids do these days and stay clear of nasty chain letters and their chain letteran followers. Goodness knows what might become of you if you base your life around sending a message to twenty friends so a man won?t show up at your door with a head and want to give you a swift kick to the shin. [b][u]I?m Away, Damnit!:::[/u][/b] This actually happened recently, you see. I was off to the movies for a jolly ole film, so I made sure all my instant messengers made it clear that I was not at my computer, but that I was at the movies. But primitive is as primitive does? or however that saying goes. My Yahoo Messenger clearly stated that, ?I?m At The Movies! If you need me, call my cell. If you can't get through, it's because I'm in the theatre.? Okay, first off, let?s count how many times I said I was at the movies. One? two? is there a third? No? Very well, twice I said it. But then we add in that I had my ?Away? symbol up on the Yahoo Instant Messenger, so that kind of somehow makes up for it. Anyways, I?m getting distracted. So, I stated I was at the movies. When I get back, I find a nasty surprise that some primitive fool on my Yahoo left me. Though I was at the movies, he actually bothered talking to me as if he could start a conversation with my absence. He asked ?What movie?? and ?Hello?? and ?Are you there?? Oh, I?m terribly sorry to tell you this, but you?re a frickin? idiot! It?s these kind of people that will someday make the world go POOF because they were too primitive to know that pushing the big red button that says ?Explode The Earth? was a naughty thing to do. Nevertheless, we?re alive right now and while we?re alive, these stupidheads will use their primitivity (is that even a word?) to annoy or otherwise act retarded on the Internet. How can someone not see the away message? And what?s even more ridiculous and mind-boggling is that they actually did see the message, were aware of my absence, and yet continued to try and carry on a conversation. I?m afraid I must question their sanity. Honestly, it?s really sad. And that?s not the only time that has occurred to me. And if it has happened to me, it must happen to everyone? well, almost everyone. There are those who only have one or two people on their buddy list because they?re so weird that everyone blocks them. And then those people stalk down those who blocked them and the people who blocked them are forced to beat said person with a chair leg. You know who I?m talking about. It?s not always being away either. It can also be when you?re busy. You?re sitting there in your chair, eating a pecan pie (though you hate them) and decide to put up a Busy status on your Instant Messenger because you?d rather not be bothered. But as we all know, primitives strike again! ?Hey, I see you?re busy,? they?ll say in retard jargon. You?ll tell them to go away, but they still don?t take the hint. Why don?t they take the hint? Has all their brain cells depleted already? I think it?s fair to say those idiots should be removed from your list along with the loser with two names. [b][u]Hello?:::[/u][/b] We get stupider as we arrive on the subject of the annoying people who are too impatient or stupid to realize it takes other people more than two seconds to reply. You?re talking to someone in a chat room or Instant Messenger, right? They say something to you, you reply, they reply, then there?s a slight pause from message trading while you reply to another instant message. Big mistake. The annoying person who is impatient sees that you haven?t replied yet (though only three to five seconds have passed), gets panicky and starts spamming you with messages like ?Hello?? and ?Are you there?? and of course, the grammatically incorrect internet slang version read as ?wehre did u go?!1!1!? When you finally get back to that chat window, you have thirty received messages and the person has logged off in frustration. If they haven?t logged off, you?ll probably tell them calmly that you?re still there, but only a few moments later, the same situation will occur. What?s worse is when the person is hypocritical. They?ll reply, you?ll reply, then it?ll take them ten minutes to send you a new message (and the whole time, you patiently wait without firing deadly spam messages of ?OMG WHERE DID U GO?!!!?). Then of course, you don?t reply for a second and? you know the rest. I?m pleased to say, if these people don?t learn their lesson first chat through, they?re not worth holding a conversation with. Maybe your instant messenger doesn?t work properly or theirs doesn?t? This isn?t anyone?s fault, but it can lead to the same kind of confusion. The other person is only a stupidhead when they don?t believe you that you didn?t receive their messages and blame you for hating them. Whiny, whiny, whiny! This is where chair legs come in handy. Wouldn?t the world be simplistic with a chair leg button on your computer that you could push and have a leg of a chair just whack the living hell out of another person? [b][u]Liar! You Lie To Me!:::[/u][/b] How stupid do people on the Internet take you for? Considering a lot of Internet users are stupid (where do you think the primitive people come from?), I guess they take you for really stupid. But when the inferior types trap us more intelligent beings, we can?t help but poke fun. In chat rooms, you?ll find those who lie out their pupils trying to impress you. Some things they say aren?t even appropriate. I don?t know about everyone else, but if I bother going to a slimy chat room, I?m just there to mingle a little before doing something crazy?like watching a humorous animation (which tend to turn out rather shallow and unentertaining). But girls or guys who either want to chat or hook up for an online relationship?ll most certainly bombard you. Try to avoid them because 99.99999999999999 percent of the time these people will lie to make them sound appealing. Like the old cliché thingy majiggy where girls will say they have 34DD sized breasts. Oh, really? Every girl in the room has that size, hm? My, that?s very improbable, but hey, who lies on the Internet, right? And do these people seriously not have lives enough to realize not everyone on the Internet is attractive? Whenever a lady asks me what I look like, I put it simple and say ?blonde hair, blue eyes.? For some unknown reason, butter is delicious on toast. And for some other unknown reason, girls go wild when you say you?re blonde haired with blue eyes. Sure, I really am, but not every blonde-haired, blue-eyed male is drop-dead gorgeous. Honestly, get a grip on reality, people. We?re living in a fantasy. Guys in chats seem way too pleased to have at least one person of the opposite sex in the vicinity (or the same gender, depending on sexuality priorities). Nevertheless, things are getting a little out of hand around here. But I suppose we?ll have to leave these primitives to their dreaming. It may be all they?ve got. Maybe a chair leg to the head would knock some sense into their bloomin? minds. [b][u]?Yep.?:::[/u][/b] Ever wound up talking to someone who only says things like ?Yep? and ?Cool? or even ?Ok?? It makes you feel like you?re talking to no one in particular or what you?re saying is meaningless to them?and perhaps it is, depending on who you are. If you?re the King of the World, obviously somebody?s going to listen to you. If you?re some brain-cell-lacking shmuck who lives in his parents? basement playing Nickelodeon webgames all day, you may have a chance of striking up a decent chat with a toaster. If not, with the crumbs from the toaster. Back on the subject, though. It sometimes gets so bad with the Yeps, the Cools, and the OKs that even after you say something like ?My Grandmother passed away yesterday,? they won?t realize what they type and go into their habit of typing ?Cool.? Who says ?Cool? to a sweet old woman dying? Primitive people like this should skip the chair leg step and just be thrown into a busy street. But the police wouldn?t like that. They have some problem with the killing of people--even primitives. ------------ But even after studying how stupid people can be and after noting down how fast a hamster can devour an egg yoke, we?ve come to the conclusion that it?s just too hard to track down all the stupid web users and boot them off for good. Then Internet companies all over the world would fail. Don?t you see primitive people rule technology today? They pretty much make up 99.99999999 percent of the people on the Internet at this very moment. I guess that?s just too bad. We?ll have to deal with primitives then. Take simple procedures in destroying their evil deeds. Block stupid people, delete chain letters, and for God sakes, give the annoying impatient people a whack or two if you ever meet them in real life (IRL, in Internet lingo). Who knows, you may have just saved some innocent smart person thingy from being ambushed. If not, then you may become a very sad person, indeed. Try not to, please. Until next time? [b]MORAL:[/b] Have a chair leg handy. [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

What Does your sig, avi and username say about you.
Dragon Warrior replied to shinji172's topic in General Discussion
You can tell from Shinmaru's banner that he is most obviously a female. He has an uber obsession with this fellow named OtakuSennen, for he has not removed the banner from his sig in ages. He uses Arcadia as a cover up for him actually being female. Why he does this is unknown. He also likes the Simpsons and enjoys a good kick to the shin by a man named Maru every now and again. Silly Mr. Shinmaru. [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img] -

That's why I didn't ask for any real critiques on my skill, just on what scenes I chose. The border and font were to be redundant throughout the series, but I see where you're coming from. And I too find anything TNBC attractive, if that's the right word... XD Anyways, I did go ahead and make some more. Once again, points where I saw artisticness. [img]http://img35.echo.cx/img35/6360/angeljackbanner9ry.jpg[/img] [size=1]I was thinking whether I should do this banner or not since I was wondering if people could tell what it was of, but after asking people, I found they could. But for those who don't see it, it's the back of the angel statue that Jack falls in the arms of. You can see parts of Jack hanging loosely behind. [img]http://img155.echo.cx/img155/7193/jackskellingtonbanner38fj.jpg[/img] A front shot of him perched on the angel statue's book.

[img]http://img155.echo.cx/img155/7420/thehillbanner3qy.jpg[/img] I find the unraveling hill to be one of the most unique and artistic parts of the whole film and the snow just makes it OH-SO-MUCH loverly, don't you think?[/size] -

Since I took the screenshots directly from the movie using my DvD-Rom and the fact that I didn't change the dimensions at all is why it's so clear and perfect. And like you said, Hack, you can't mess with Tim's work. It's too unique and beautiful. And I'm glad I'm not the only one who's a Jack look-alike ;) [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img] -

Thanks. I actually found the snowglobe one more "adorable" than artistic. He just seemed so innocent, playing with his snowglobe. God, do I sound gay or what? Anyways, feel free to use the banners any time. If I don't make them for myself, I'm most certainly not making them for my health. [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img] -
No, actually, it's because I haven't got around to finishing it. This week is surprisingly busy, what with school, prom, women, friends, and a whole lot of other jazz like that. I'll be most ertainly posting Volume Four the week, nevertheless, so don't you fret. [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

I am a big Tim Burton fan and as many do, I love The Nightmare Before Christmas. But I like it because of the artistic way Tim did it and his style of portraying the worlds of Christmas (happy happy!) and Halloween (dark and morbid). It fascinates me and today I got the wild urge to make TNBC banners. [img]http://img139.echo.cx/img139/6326/jackskellingtonbanner9ty.jpg[/img] [size=1]Jack at the meeting. [img]http://img9.echo.cx/img9/9085/halloweentownbanner5ue.jpg[/img] A landscape shot of Halloween world. [img]http://img9.echo.cx/img9/4193/jackskellingtonbanner23wc.jpg[/img] Jack admiring a snowglobe innocently. [img]http://img9.echo.cx/img9/470/jacksketchbanner6zf.jpg[/img] The sketch of Jack, the Pumpkin King. [img]http://img9.echo.cx/img9/274/sallybanner8hx.jpg[/img] I thought this to be one of the most artistic points in the whole film, simply because of the way they placed the leaves and the stonework and everything! It's almost beautiful, if not a little strange with her limbs all akimbo and decapitated. Nevertheless, the placement of objects was just... perfect.[/size] They're all of different sizes width-wise (height is 100 pixels). Many of them are Jack, not only because he is a very rich character (in the sense that he was developed wonderfully), but also because I'm told I resemble him in the fact that I am tall, skinny, and have his uncanny walk. Though that's not always a compliment, I've taken a liking to him character a little more because of it. These banners in particular are of what I thought were artistic points. I'm sure I'd do more, so perhaps I'll post some later on. Comments on the screenshots I snapped from the movie? [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

[quote name='ThatOneOddDude']Just yesterday I was taking one of abnormally long showers (my brother thought I had died in there) and I look up to see that my shower nozzle has about eight different functions! You wouldn't BELEIVE the massage I got! It has these 3 little nozzles that fire out in order and it has a power shot and some really weird functions! Man, I suddenly really want to take a shower! Of course Im roped to my computer and cant afford to waste another outfit...[/quote] Thank you for your two disturbing stories about you and your shower nozzles O.o The nozzle in my bathroom has similar functions, of around ten. Unfortunately for the other shower in the house, it has a regular nozzle. No matter. I don't use that shower. Muhahahahaha. I don't really tinker with the nozzle functions, though, and they don't really give me pleasure anyways. (this isn't sexual, you flippin' pervs!)

I take two showers a day and they're very long (my hair requires a lengthy wash). Not to mention I have the shower really hot. I come out red as a lobster. And baths aren't that soothing to me because they stay at one temperature the whole time, while with a shower I can adjust the water temp to my content. I'm constantly turning the shower warmer throughout my washing, so... yeah :) Women in showers with me rocks ;^D [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

To tell you the truth, I thought of this thread idea in the [b]shower[/b]. :P I have two showers in the house. One is in my parents' bathroom which doubles as a tub. It has a clear curtain with flowers on it and is purple. The other shower is owned by me >:^D It's just a shower with a glass door (which I doodle on in the steam) and is an orangish-yellow. It's kinda cramped in there :( [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

You know, showers are very useful devices. There are so many things you can use them for. Let me explain... [list] [*]One can practice their singing by belting out a note or two during their hair-washing sequence. [*]One could have a nice ponder in there, perhaps on a story idea or whatever. [*]It relaxes a person when they need it most. [*]It wakes someone up, whether from a hangover or after a dreadful sleep. [*]It washes away the blood after a nasty brawl in the streets where the cops end up breaking things up and you get chased down, but luckily escape with your life. [*]If your shower has a glass door, you can doodle pictures in the steam on it. Great fun and good practice on your art skills ;) [*]You can... nope. Not touching that one. [*]It's a good place to get away from the busy life. [*]If you somehow screw around with the piping and make the water Hawaiian Punch, you could have one massive drinking fountain of Hawaiian Punch like in Mr. Deeds, only... well... bigger. And in a shower. [*]You could have loads of fun with the hobby of shower curtains. Buy new curtains and change them every month, week, day... hour? O.o [*]Drown your enemies... if it's a bathtub. Somehow I don't think you can drown someone in less than a centimeter of water. [*]Go for a swim. [B]NOTE:[/b] Requires really big tub. [*]You can have fun with sponges or even those little dinosaur things that when you add water, they grow! What was it? Tiddily-winks or something? [*]Turn your shower into a large plant-watering system. With a conveyer belt rolling the plants through individually under the water each, you don't have to worry about giving those thirsty little puppies a drink anymore! [*]Speaking of puppies, bathtubs make a lovely place to groom your pooch! Who woulda thunk it? [*]Lure a nasty spider you're scared of into the shower and then turn on the water. Whirlpool of doom, biyatch! Muhhahahaha! [*]You can act out the song "Singing In The Rain". Cheesy effects, I know, but it gets the job done, right? [*]Create a fast and cheap, but efficient bottled-water business. Just be prepared for customers complaining about the taste. [*]It's not a public bathroom, but when you've gotta go, you've gotta go. [*]Flood someone's house by turning their shower on and clogging the drain. Oh, how devious :3 [*]Torture cats. Cats hate water, ergo showers are cat-torturing devices. But why would you torture cats, you sick person? >:^O [*]The ultimate utility to the ultimate weapon! A wet towel hurts like a nizzle, so use your shower wisely to wetten the cloth of doom! [*]A nice place to stand under water and make toast in a toaster... on second thought, scratch this one. [*]Create a secret underwater base in your very own home. [b]WARNING:[/b] You may want scuba gear so drowning isn't a problem. [*]Hide a cam in the chick/guy's shower you like and have fun! [b]MAJOR WARNING:[/b] Avoid plan if Grandma visits the girl/guy's house! Could scar you for life! [*]Try reenacting the scene from [u]Psycho[/u]. [*]Turn the house temperature really cold-like and turn the water all the way cold and maybe, just maybe you'll receive a nice icsicle. [*]Burn yourself or freeze yourself. It's not very fun, but it passes the time. [*]Learn to not drop the soap by practicing strategies in the situation where you do. [*]Oh, and I dunno why you'd use it for this, but I guess [i]some[/i] people get clean in them. Sounds a bit corny, though.[/list] This is only thirty possible things the shower can supply you, but there are plenty more and you know it. So, before I open this to discussion of what you love about showers, I ask you this... [size=5][b]Do you know where [i]your[/i] shower is?[/b][/size] [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img]

Well, thank you, Mr. Star Wars XD I don't think I'll bother reading that, but I am curious about the Han Solo/Chewy series. But we'll say that for discussion in Star Wars 411. Don't wanna get off topic ;^D [img]http://img131.exs.cx/img131/8930/dwwashere9rz.gif[/img] -
