Simple things please simple minds, eh?
Anything that deserves it's own mod folder is a mod, too simple!
Hah, it's awful.
The fact that Connery tried to pull out mid-production says a lot about it.

Just watched this on FirstShowing and hated it, personally. Looks like a mess, and reminds me of that god awful movie 'The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen'.
Also, Zack Snyder.. no thanks. 300 is a trashy movie and Dawn of the Dead is instant fail being a typical zombie movie and all.

There is life in this thread yet. Let Ember continue.
TheGrimReafer has contributed a lot to TWHL, and he's got many more contributions coming. I'd think twice before trying to attack his integrity, Ember.
If Valve know what's good for the Half-Life series I hope they never give us the portal gun.
I still think Aperture had their own Anti-Mass Spectrometer or equivalent portal tech onboard the Borealis. I'd say the Combine want whatever it is to reconnect with their homeworld, and Kleiner probably wants it to force them out or contact the rest of the Vortigaunts.
A trip to the Combine homeworld would be ace.

You're assuming we all believe in God, and you have no sense of humour.
I remember back than when the first place winner won he got to choose three options for the next comp.That hasn't changed, this was the first duel-engine compo judged seperately however, so things will be a little different.
I think there should be more than one judge.There typically is two judges. This one time Pb was left with the job because of some unfortunate timing.
There is/was a new judging system in the works that allowed mods to nominate trusted users to judge, something I should follow up on.
You really need to drop this, zeeba-G. Penguinboy could have and really should have written those reviews far more constructively, but that doesn't change the fact that he felt the the 3 other entries deserved to win more than yours.
Here's a question for you now, do you think that because YOU deserved to win, the other three people didn't?

Pb: the largest majority of members here map for GldSrc, that should be obvious.
If he had said "Portal = not that great" I would've agreed with him.
I don't know what Pb is planning but I don't want a competition that rules out like.. 70% of TWHL's mapping members. 
Tosse clearly doesn't have a clue what he's talking about.
DRM is a scourge that completely goes against the term 'Personal Computer'.
New operating systems should NOT destroy the ability to play older games. They're supposed to GAIN compatibility, not lose it.
Also, calling Pb's computer slow and in need of new hardware is hilarious when he's running on a top end DX10 card and 4 gigs of ram.

Fair few of FireFox 3's new 'features' have come straight from Opera anyway.Stop! You'll cause arguments!!
I've been going through all the hundreds upon hundreds of photo's I've taken this last year and organising/cropping/touching them up lately. Here's a bunch from the half I've organised so far:
Uploaded them whilst capped, quite an effort! Phew.
Note: None of these are digitally manip'd past altering the levels in Camera Raw and cropping and rotating them.

Haha, that's kind of creepy.
This game is great.
Thanks :>
I've got another one.
Fun.

You just suck. I quite like my first attempt:
Oh right, i'm thinking of HL2. Go for what ye olde Rimrook suggests.

These are the same people that put COPYRIGHT LOLOLOLOL in the Meet the Class vids, remember?
The only other time I've seen someone come across the is not writable!!! Check it out before running buildcubemaps error is when they were trying to build the cubemaps without actually having the map open. I doubt you're that silly so this is an odd one...
Ant: Where's the love!? LOVE, MAN, LOVE.

I try to open Hammer bare minimum once a week. I suppose the benefit of having five (hundred) different unfinished projects is when you lose patience or get bored with one, there's four (hundred and ninety nine) others to play around with.
I wanted a Flamethrower/Extinguisher hybrid. :<

Some of the older monsters, those synths, a new gun or two..
I'd be on my way to gaming heaven.

Man I hope so.
They really upped the ante between Episode One and Two, but now there's only so much they can improve upon it without having to add a lot more content, too. So new enemies and possibly a new weapon or two are kind of a necessity, imo.

I just hope they don't bring the portal gun into the mix.Same, it would totally destroy the game.
I personally think there's a device on board similiar to the Anti-Mass Spectrometre, Apertures rival version if you will from back when they were competing.
Perhaps Kleiner thinks they can reverse or undo some damage from the Cascade, or god knows what. Eli mentioned something about not learning their lesson (or something like that), so he's obviously in disagreement.
hopefully containing some of Xen's classic creatures like the bullsquids and houndeyes.That would really rock, I miss those guys!
Actually, someone made a HL2-in-HL mod. It's in the Reissues package.All the content from that are recreations, though. There's no legal concerns with those.
...no.
It almost sounds like fair punishment, actually.

I edited my post.
As for the shout thing, sounds like a problem on your end or something Penguinboy might know about. I'll look into it.

Just because YOU think you've improved, doesn't automatically let you invite yourself in thoughThis is getting far too off topic, but it is exactly right. It's not your place to judge whether you're welcome back or not, it is ours. You broke the rules and lost the right to be here.
Now, I am NOT going to get you banned again, not yet anyway. I'm going to watch you and judge for myself whether or not you deserve to stay.
Moving on, we need less people here bashing him. If you don't approve and don't want to help, then don't. Stay out of it. He's been told enough what's wrong with this idea, especially legally, it's now on him so leave him be.
This is a warning to all.
Since when is it ok around here for banned folk to simply invite themselves back in?
There are these things called rules, you know?

I've played Redstone, it's got a fairly win setting, but it's built pretty scrappy in places. If Valve fixed it up a bit I'd be all for it becoming official, but that'll never happen.
Fastlane looks to be the exact opposite - Same old boring design, but quite well built.

Why the hell did you just edit your post from something nice, to something insulting? I swear you just ask to get banned sometimes.
Not a problem.
We don't like it when people double post, let alone quadruple post in threads here.
You should notice a little edit button next to your name if the last post in the thread is yours, just use that next time to amend your post. ;>
Editing will also bump your post so you know people will see it.

Well the quality is pretty much guaranteed to be fine, but i'm talking about the size and performance impact. A well compressed JPG is the better option for wallpapers, for obvious reasons.
And since when the hell did Microsoft products make such avid fans of you?! I feel like you're saying this just to hate on me. =(

Yeah, I was talking in context with what this thread is about - Wallpapers! I'm not trying to run off topic.
PNG Wallpapers? No thanks.
"small graphics" was a dodgy choice of words on my part.

Yes I know, but Penguinboy suggested using InfranView for one purpose and Paint for another.
so crop with paint, resize with ifranview.
So what? 
PNG's are only good for small graphics, and mostly when transparency is involved - something Paint fails at miserably. Saving the final product as a PNG is gonna' result in absurd file sizes, too.
It's easier to have one good program that does it all right then resizing it in one (with a specific format, I might add), then having to save it in another.

You can propose it, we need plenty of TF2 tutorials. :>
MSPaint will do it, but the results will destroy all you know and love.
I have the whole Internet up until 1999 saved to a floppy disk somewhere around here. It's true.
Nothing wrong with Nem's, i've used it many times without problem. I'm sure there's nothing wrong with yours either.
No point in saying he sucks ass simply because you want more people to use yours.
