  1. Heyy iTunes will do it for you if you look in the right places. Look around the advanced options in iTunes, and you should find an option that says iTunes will search for all the missing artwork automatically. Try it out, it worked for me. I'm hoping I've understood the question right, sorry if I havn't. Beans.
  2. Sounds like you have a bit of a dilemma. I don't know but is it actually possible to use a longer seat stem on a Trials bike? I have an Onza T-Pro, which has no seat, so I have no idea. But if your looking to sit down, don't get a T-Pro. Obviously. And personally I get tired pedalling to my local shop and back. But mabye I'm unfit. It definatly requires quite a bit of pedalling. I have another bike for more long distance rides. And I just thought, would a long stem on a Trials bike not look a bit silly? Like one of those foldable hybrid bikes... Hope this helps. Beans.
  3. Cheers for that! = | I like coagulate. Just sounds cool. I also like contemperanious. Don't ask me what it means. I think its something about something happening at the same time. = | Beans
  4. Weird dood. Mines on the 21st of August too. I havn't finished all my GCSEs but I have done 3 early (I'm in year 10). Not looking forward to that date. Ahh well. Beans
  5. Bunnyhopping is simple once you get the hang of it... The way I'm saying now is not the one where you can get the most height, but its the best way of learning (It was for me anyway). First you need quite a light bike, but by the sounds of it you already got one. Okay the move... 1. Point your feet downwards on the pedal so your toes are almost pointing directly at the floor- this will give you more grip when you jump. 2. Bend your arms and legs slightly. 3. Pull up on the bars as if you were lifting the front wheel as usual. At the same time jump as you would with no bike, but keep your toes pointed. This should lift the bike. Get more height by tucking the bike between your legs in the air. If you get good at this, then you can change step 3 by this time pulling the front wheel in the air and then the back rather than doing it at the same time. Hope this helps. Ask me if you have any problems with this method. Beans
  6. Hes right. You'd just find the nearest cliff to jump off on the new bike because you didn't buy the parts. You would get to the bottom, die, then realise that you should have bought the parts. Maybe I've exaggerated a little. Beans
  7. Yup. Its now called 'Classifieds'. Simple. Beans
  8. 1) A bear walks into a bar and goes, "I'd like a pint and...... ... ... ... A packet of crisps please" The barman goes "alright, but why the big pause? "Oh I'm a bear" it replyed, holding up its arm. Deserves a groan really. 2) A man is crawling through the desert dying of thirst, when he sees a bar in the distance. With all his strength he gets to the bar, and he goes straight to the counter and asks for water. The barman says "who do you think you are, walking in here asking for a glass of water? You have to pass the three tests first." The dying man says "alright, what do I have to do?". The barman replys "Well, first you have to kill big John", pointing to a very large man at the back of the bar. He then says "then you must run up those stairs, and pull the bad tooth out the large bulldog's mouth. After that there is a door, and behind it is a prostitute. She is sad, show her a good time if you know what I mean...". The thirsty man agrees to the challenges. He runs forwards, and quickly smashes a bottle on big John's head. He then runs upstairs. About half an hour later, he strolls downstairs with a smile on his face. The barman asks "have you completed the challenges?". The man says "not quite, where is that prostitute that needs her bad tooth taken out?". I like that one. 3) A man walks into a bar, and asks for a pint. The barman says "okay but why have you got a giant orange for a head?". He was right. The man did have a giant orange for a head. The man replys "Well its a long story really". The barman goes, "oh thats okay there is hardly any business nowadays". The man goes "okay, well, I was walking to the bar like I usually do, where I found a magic lamp on the floor. I rubbed it and a genie popped out. He granted me three wishes. So my first wish was for world peace. Sure enough, a second later I saw a dog and a cat hugging. So for my second wish, I asked for an infinate amount of money. And sure enough I had money in every pocket." "Wow" said the barman. "What was your third wish?" "well for my third wish" the man said, "my third wish was to have an orange for a head." Thats one of my favourite jokes. Sorry for the waste of time, it had to be told. Beans
  9. Okay if you want, but i still would have gone for the Da Bomb. You'd be getting £199 off the Da Bomb anyway, and it is a really good bike. Its your money, but I'd go for the Da Bomb. Beans
  10. Nooooo. Go for the Da Bomb. Way better build and spec. Plus it alredy has Maggie HS33's on it.
  11. Sorry bit of a grammatical error I just realised. I meant the bike that you have been offered, the Monty X- Hydra. Steel will be stronger, but it is not worth the weight if you are only just starting. Aluminium is still very strong, but a quite lot lighter. Sorry for the misunderstanding! Beans
  12. I wouldn't touch the Saracen with a ten foot pole. The Da Bomb has a waaaay better spec, especially as it has Maggie HS33s. If the Saracen is anything like my old bike, it will fall apart in a matter of minutes. But I don't think there is much difference in weight, if the frame is made from the same aluminium then usually its around the same weight. And unless I have read the post wrong, the first bike is made of steel. You'll yank your arms off trying to bunny hop, then again do anything, on that thing. Another suggestion is to look at Onza bikes. If your just starting, they are great. Some of them come in around your price range. I gots myself an Onza T-Pro. Hope this helps! Beans
  13. Good idea! Signed it and sent to my friends. Beans
  14. This happened to me before. A firm kick to the side that would not budge did the job. Not too hard, didn't wanna break it. My legs got me out of a lot of situations where I didn't have the tools for the job. Kick things- It makes them work. Beans
  15. Its you. Hehe. I've got Picassa, its an excellent programme, very snazzy! To resize the pictures just double click on the one you want to resize and then click on crop. It should let you make it smaller. Failing that, use Microsoft Paint. Go on my documents, right click on the picture, and click on 'open with'. Paint should be one of the options. Then when it loads, go to the bottom right of the picture and click on the little square. Then drag to the desired size. Simple. I hope. Hope this helps! Beans
