okay, i'm fully sick and tired of being an idiot, so could someone please explain to me how to post pictures? i have the feeling that i should have learnt this a long, long time ago, but, oh well, i was born stupid.

That's not your computer. The GS servers are being ghey. I can't vote on polls for some reason.

And I suggest using the Fattonys.com one as it's easier to use.

I suppose helping me fake a snuff movie is out of the question then?

Damn.

Although, I think I'll make "Amateur Snuff Movie" one of the CCG cards.

No, no Setekh.
It's fine the way it is. :D

(I didn't notice till you pointed that out btw :p)

Post more pic's icespeed! :)

I might print this one and pin it up on my wall...



lol j/k. ;)

More sketches! ...please. :D

Edit: I might 'try' to do one of myself in my Rio underwear or perhaps Boxers. Don't think I can look as sexy as that sketch though... :p
Title: posting pictures
Post by: icespeed on January 28, 2005, 11:48:01 pm
the reason i wasn't wearing any pants is, that as an observant person might notice, it was 2am in the morning when i did this. and i don't like the way i look in my nightshirt, so i shucked that.

Post by: Grug on January 29, 2005, 06:48:12 am
Well you won't hear no objections from me. :D

I wanna do a self portrait in similar style but...
I don't have a mirror in my room, so I'd have to sit half naked in my bro's room upstairs drawing myself. I dare say that would result in some perculiar looks... :p

Still, tis not holding you guys back. Hey Steak how about you try a self portrait?

We should have an aussie meeting someday... I could fly down to sydney one day to meet you guys if thats the common location.. :)

*tries to shake the image of Grug out of his head* :p I won't try a self-portrait in anything except for film - I am a terrible pencil artist. I'd be better off trying ASCII art.

Btw, the HLP Union is definitely on the cards. I'm going to try and wait till I can move out, so I can cram HLPers into my house. ;)

lol @ Setekh, when you said that I pictured the Simpsons where Barney's in a bikini dancing in Homer's head.
A HLP get-together would be awsome. Especially if it happens this year sometime... :D

A thong aka plugga's in Aus is not the same as the poofy brazillian thing an0n... :p

lol. (Steak - just wait till I post a sketch... :devil: )
Title: posting pictures
Post by: an0n on January 29, 2005, 08:53:48 am
Wait a minute! HLP Union?

I can hock some cards!

Mwuahahaha. And if I manage to sell Fattonys.com I'll actually have enough money to get to it (even after hocking out £3k for cards)........Assuming I can make it through (presumably) US customs.

I don't think I'd make it through Australian customs, thanks to something I found out my uncle said going through there:

Customs: Anything to declare?
Uncle: Nope.
Customs: Do you have a criminal record?
Uncle: I didn't know you still needed one.

Good drawing there. :yes:
Title: posting pictures
Post by: icespeed on January 30, 2005, 02:46:10 am
um, okay. first thing, it's not a thong, i've tried those and they're really, really, really uncomfortable... it's just a low-rise pair.

secondly, there's this thing called shadow, i was attempting to do that but if an0n thinks i need waxing then obviously i failed miserably.

thirdly, steak's having a hlp union thingy? wow, that's so cool! is this like, a serious project? or are you just playing us round, steak?

fourthly, nico needs to go to an english speaking country? come to aus! crash at steak's place! and we can meet up sometime! (well, actually, i shouldn't invite you to someone else's house, but... steak probably wouldn't mind...)

fifthly, i don't have angelina's lips, they're my own.

edit: sixthly, tiara, when i said that, i was grateful to an0n. it's not like i really like him. ... like, ew... that's just a horrible image...

I wouldn't mind at all, the whole thing would narrow down to one pb tho:
how hard is it to find a small job for a month during summer in your area? :p

nico: i dunno, i've never really seriously looked for a job before. but keep in mind your summer is our winter... a good website for jobsearching in aus is seek.com, so maybe you wanna surf around there and see what's available...

omg, you're seriously _seriously_ considering coming? that's so fully cool!
Title: posting pictures
Post by: Nico on January 30, 2005, 07:12:20 pm
Yeah, I'm seriously considering coming :D:
first, going to an english speaking country is somewhat mandatory. They don't say you have to, but it's quite clear that you should, as often as possible. Second, it's much better going to Steak's place than going to some random tea drinking british granny's place :p ( no offense meant to any tea drinking british granny that would visit HLP, of course :p ).

The cons? Well, I wonder if my parents would "ok" the costs to go there and to pay some sort of compensation to Steak, therefore I'd have to pay by myself, hence why I'd need a job there. And yeah, damn, I forgot it was winter, and there's no season jobs in winter :p

But, that said, I'd come over regardless the money, just for the pleasure of... mmh... proving that french people are the best seducers in the world :D

"waiting for Steak to see that and go 'WTF? No way!'" :p

lol. Setekh makes an offhand mention and then in 2 months, 30+ people rock up at his place. :p

Kewl Nico, come to Brissy, its way better than Sydney... :D

Don't forget that our Winter's are still generally in the 20+ degree's zone... unless you goto Sydney. :p

I could give you a tour of Brisbane goto the Gold Coast have a gander maybe even pick up some chicks, then get hammered like all hell in the pub.
That's probably the highlight of Aus, is the Pub's RSL's and Sports Clubs.
Should be fairly cheap for you too, not quite sure how the french currency runs against ours though...

lol @ Swamp thing, and icespeed.
@ an0n, watch it though, we might flog the cash you do make ;)

Post by: icespeed on February 01, 2005, 02:59:51 am
as if you'd go to brisbane, you come to sydney and you get to see me. :D and steak, of course. well... i dunno any advice about the money and all... are you working now? maybe you could just not eat for like three months and save enough money for an airticket... on the other hand, if you wait until december/january, there'll be heaps of summer jobs as well as it being hot enough to go to the beach.

omg! i'm so excited!!!!

... er, why don't you go visit thundfireth...? being closer and cheaper and english-speaking... not that i don't want you to come...

@ icespeed, as if you would'nt come to brisbane! you can see me! :D

icespeed - you and steak should come visit me sometime. :)
And then next time I'll come visit you guys.

Maybe we could oganise it to be near state of origin... :D

Don't know him near as much as Steak, and, to be honest, I don't even know Steak that much :p ( oh, and Grug, I know you even less than Thundy :p )
But I notice Ed isn't posting here :D

Btw, french currency is the euro, and, afaik, it does pretty well theses days, especially compared to the yen and the dollars ( the two currencies they use as references on radio, don't ask me why the yen :p )

Title: posting pictures
Post by: Grug on February 01, 2005, 07:35:49 am
Tassie huh? I'll spare you the customary joke directed at Tassie's. :p

Hobart? Only real city I know of down there.
My Aunt just visited Tassie though, and my friend did too. Think my mate was at some Scout / Adventurers Jamboree and went all over the place.

Hell everyone I've spoken to has visited Tassie in past few months. Weird. Must be some cult going around...

@Nico, well I probably know you less, but I invited you anyway. :)
That says I'm either a) Kind and friendly or b) A seriel killer trying to lure you to your death... :nervous:

I'm sure its worth the risk eh? :)
Still, even if you don't visit me, Brisbane's better. :D

But if you do visit Steak, I'm tempted to come down and meet two complete strangers. Hell, either one of you could be wanting my death, but I wouldn't really be worried meeting anybody unless it was an0n...

i dunno why he isn't posting, maybe he doesn't feel the need or he hasn't read the thread or something. if you're really serious about trashing- er... crashing at Steak's place, maybe you should pm him and make sure he at least hears about it before you turn up with two suitcases and a spare month? i'd invite you to my place, but since i live at home when i'm in syd, i'm not sure what my parents would say to some random french guy turning up on our doorstep, not to mention the fact that i'm not in syd 5 days out of 7.

oh yeah... if you do come, when would it be?

i have holidays july 2nd to 17th, and sept 24th to oct 9th. cos i go to a diff uni from steak our hols have slight variations, but that's approximately the time. i think he has a three week hol from july 2nd. prob july would be a good month, cos that's inter-semester for us. unless _he_ has any objections.

i haven't talked to steak recently so i don't know what's going on, but i'm sure he'll get on icq sometime between now and july. no rush.

Post by: Nico on February 03, 2005, 10:02:26 pm
It doesn't have to be a full month, i'd do with 2 or 3 weeks, and you probably wouldn't have me on your back all day long, far from that ;)
Was thinking, tho, July, that will probably not be possible, I'm supposed to have some eye surgery around then. But I don't know when exactly, which is very annoying :doubt:
Title: posting pictures
Post by: Setekh on February 03, 2005, 10:33:34 pm
2 or 3 weeks would go by quite quickly. But... eye surgery in July? Your best bet to catch me in holidays would actually be a year from now. :nervous: Barring that, you can come visit during semester - that's fine - but you might miss icespeed.

Well, then best for me would be august or september, I suppose. So you'd have to tell me if you have any break in any of those two months.
But first thing first, Ed's family has to agree to that :p
