Well I can always edit my designs, changing the text won't be so much of a problem. But it would mean that some of us will have to scrap our ideas, as most of them (including mine) have images are to do with the CCC in some way, eg the design with Zali above.

:lol::laugh3::P Yes brings back good memories :)

Probably cos the stars brightened! :rolleyes: :dozey:

Yeah wasn't it pixierose or something before? Anyway I was thinking of listening to X&Y from begining to end tonight, before i go to bed. Its been months since I last heard it all the way through, I find AROBTTH has more of an impact on me. And it will be on headphones too! :P

The TV series I mean :P, I think it deserves a thread of its own. Reviews [ATTACH]22425[/ATTACH] By ROBERT ABELE Wednesday, July 19, 2006 - 12:00 pm It’s a breezily simple story to explain: 2006 cop becomes 1973 cop. Detective Sam Tyler (John Simm) is a smart-suited, sensitively hip Manchester crime fighter with the latest technological advances in perp tracking at his disposal. But when a car hits him one day during the hunt for a serial killer, he wakes up a policeman in a very different world: one of wide lapels and sideburns, crackly radios instead of cell phones, unchecked police brutality and the blaring sounds of The Who’s “Teenage Wasteland” and Wings’ “Live and Let Die.” Okay, he can’t hear the songs — they’re on the soundtrack for our benefit — but what Sam does hear in moments freakier than his already freaky how-the-hell-did-I-wind-up-here moments are the hospital pings and hushed voices that indicate he’s a present-day coma patient on a very bizarre consciousness side trip. But don’t mistake the slick-but-not-stupid Life on Mars for brain-bending sci-fi or Austin Powers–style farce. Aside from the psychological stress of its star — who is trying to determine if he’s nuts, a dream-world lost cause or in possession of the tools to correct his predicament — this is actually at heart an old-school cops-and-robbers show, with that dash of Twilight Zone to give it 21st-century cachet. Creators Matthew Graham, Tony Jordan and Ashley Pharoah don’t want you to distance yourself from their premise as if you were on a museum tour of pre–Diet Coke days. Although their cop-culture points of reference may be different, the gist is that they want you to love Quinn Martin productions and hard-knuckle law-enforcement guys like Mannix all over again, but at the same time reflect on their tough-guy ways. Because, hey, it may suddenly be 1973, but there are still bad guys to collar. That’s why Life on Mars keeps the ha-ha no-computers gags to a minimum and jumps right into the knotty drama of having Sam try to figure out how to merge his more thoughtful, rules-aware police methods with the archaic-seeming modus operandi of men like his new-but-not-really boss Gene Hunt (Philip Glenister), a brutish, sexist, evidence-planting believer in keeping crooks off the street by any means necessary. (You enjoyed the buddy format once too, remember?) The setup is so enjoyably thorny that you don’t always side with Sam either, especially when he whines about why he felt compelled to release from custody an obviously guilty guy: “But we didn’t have any evidence!” If you’ve seen the great miniseries thriller State of Play, you know that I’m going to tell you that star John Simm is trustily excellent as Sam: emotionally on target as a lost soul and charmingly smart as a by-the-book sleuth. And he’s well-matched with Glenister, who has an engaging snarl and a wonderfully light touch playing the humor of an old dog — remember, he’s also experiencing his own measure of head scratching, thanks to his often puzzled-looking, future-obsessed new investigator. Everyone’s take on Mars is relative. In the end, Life on Mars makes us realize we’ve all been crime-show accident victims in a collective trance for far too long — and it’s time to wake up. _____________________ The Making Part1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OVw4QiIxlo Part2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mx1hLCaDUvo Interviews http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrKGueFHLh4 Trailers http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZYOD_W6dwI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DY1EBJvDHmg Episodes - Watch them here Series Two Episode 1 - Part One, Part Two, Part Three, Part Four, Part Five, Part Six, Part Seven Episode 2 - Part One, Part Two, Part Three, Part Four, Part Five, Part Six Episode 3 - Part One, Part Two, Part Three, Part Four, Part Five, Part Six ________________________ The first series got me hooked - it really intruiged me. The second series hasn't been AS good as i thought it would be so far though, apart from the 3rd episode perhaps. Anyone else like this series? Anyone even heard of it?

Wow interesting article. I found the concept of babies being born inside a virtual reality particularly frightening...

:lol: Well it was for a good reason, at least! I guess life is tougher these days, so i had to 'grow up' really :rolleyes: I have to admit that I kinda miss all that stuff, with the crazy hairstyles, 3D glasses and cats etc... :P Although my Avatar still remains ;)

Well It seems to be working for me. But you have to press the button with the right arrow to find some material. If nothing comes up at all, perhaps you need to install Macromedia Flash player. Hope it helps.

I'll see what I an do by the weekend. ;)

Ha yeah I remember I was constantly hyped for some reason when I first joined ;) And that soundbyte was edited together using about 20 munites of recording :D so yeah I tried to make it as "mature" as I could :) And sleep is a wonderful healer, I'm starting to realise.

Bump. I've just discovered this band... and from what i've heard so far, I'm really like them! I'm finding it difficult to find songs though... perhaps because they're still relitavely unknown. Anyone heard "Fantastic" or a song called "Movies of Antarctica..." or something?

Yeah turning back time is a good one, it would help me alot. Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

I got the results back from a Biology module I took 3 months ago. Its not good. Looks like I'll have to resit it in the summer if i want to get into my favourite University.:(

Nite Nite :)

Cool ;) Thanks for all the encouragement by the way, its much appreciated! :) I tweaked the album art design for the T-shirt (see above). Well you got 2 to choose from now, I'll leave you to it for the night, its getting late. Later everyone!

And the one for How We See The World: [ATTACH]22401[/ATTACH] Not full size.

Hey thanks for complimenting my work Nadia yours is really cool too! :D I just read this, and I've already posted a T-shirt design that looks quite different :rolleyes:... But i can still post the same design as the album art if i'm allowed to do 2 designs? Up to you really! :)

Hey, here's something I did for the T-shirt design thingy: [ATTACH]22400[/ATTACH] Thats not the full sized one BTW. And congrats again, Nadia! Bed time 4 me now. :P EDIT: And I could also do one which is very similar to the album art that I created, as some people have suggested :)

Gotcha ;)

I'm happy but dissapointed at the same time :confused: Such a wierd feeling... maybe the feeling's called dissappiness or happypointedness ok shut up Semy :rolleyes:

Well it appears to me that you've done what you can to resolve it, so my only advice would be to forget it and move on. Because if people are not interested in your opinions, its not worth making the effort if no one's gonna listen IMO. Thats just the way I see it though.

:lol::laugh3:

Yesss! :dance: :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:

Stick around Mark. I wouldn't be put off by other people's opinions. You brighten the place up IMO ;)

Never seen so much space in one post :lol:
