    Fondest Memory of MMOs

    Discovering the zones in EQ and learning how to play (first mmo I ever played). In the first few days, levels, dps and gear didn't mean shit to me, and it didn't occur to me that some creatures would be completely impossible to kill (that was very different from other games I had played up till...

    France Vacation

    That's a great advice ! Alsace is a beautiful region, Strasbourg is a really nice place to spend a few days and visit. And as Gurgeh said, they have the "route des vins" (lit. "wine road") that takes you through a whole bunch of villages that produce wine (the region is known for it's variety of...

    France Vacation

    Some of my favourite restaurants in Paris. -Frenchie : 5-6 rue du Nil. Open only in the evening, and closed sat and sundays. There is only one menu, which changes with the seasons. You get to choose between two starters, two main courses, and two deserts. You can add some extras like foie...

    The Leftovers

    I started watching the show last weekend, not knowing anything about either who wrote it, or what it was about (a friend told me I might find it interesting so I just checked it out). One of the first things I thought was "this is built just like lost". It is blatantly obvious. episodes...

    Thailand (Bangkok and Pattaya)

    Thailand (Bangkok and Pattaya)

    Go watch some Muay Thai ! Ratchadamnoen and the new Lumpinee alternate fights every other night (starts around 6:30pm, about 10 fights, the good ones start around 8pm, lasts till 10:30/11. Both have good fights, Ratchadamnoen is in the center, is a bit old and dirty, but that adds to the spirit...

    International Travel for n00bs

    Late reply but here goes : Money : as said by pretty much everyone else : withdraw cash from ATMs. Call your bank and verify with them what the daily/weekly limits are for ATM cash withdrawal are on your card when you use it outside of the US. Don't look like a tourist. Don't keep all your...

    Iceland

    Been there last november, had a great time. Renting a car is almost mandatory, since there is so much distance inbetween every other point of interest (Offroad/4wd if you can, but careful, you don't want to get stuck in the middle of nowhere with no signal). Bring good trekking shoes. If you...

    I think you answered that yourself. You need to work on it. Shoot a lot. There are some advices/rules, like the golden ratio, headroom, or the rule of thirds, (Drek's last pic is a good exemple of this one), but there are so many exceptions, just see them as guidelines, and keep in mind that...

    Japan

    As said by Chysamere, Golden week is nothing like NYE. Most of the places will be open, but it's not realy the best time to visit Japan as a tourist, as everything will be more expensive, and all the places will be very (very) crowded. If you can slide your stay to end just before or to start...

    That video doesn't realy has much to do with photoshop itself, it's like 99% about the dude's drawing skills. Can you already draw (on paper) the same spiderman that can be seen in the vid ? If so, the photoshop part of the video is nothing too complicated. If you are getting serious about it...

    I realy liked most of the pictures you posted on the previous pages, but for the last few ones (black and white), the first thing that struck me was that they feel "grey". The whites are grey, the blacks are grey, there is no black and no white. I am by no mean a specialist of b&w photography, I...
