    My DH bike

    view number two
  3. Personally. i only used the one camera. you will have to get the rider, to do the same trick, in the same place over and over. I had 17 different camera positions, which were all the exact same distance from the object, all centred on the same object. (the stones i used to mark each camera postion created a nice perfect semi-circle around the object) Then for each postion, i recorded him doing the trick twice (just incase one was wrong). So he had to 180 off the curb 34odd times! good practise though. Then you find the same frame from each position. Stick em together and hey presto a cool shot! The more "the same" you can get the rider, and what the camera focuses / centres on, the better and smoother the overall outcome! hope that makes sense. i could draw a diagram if needbe! Twas thinking of filling the movie with this techinque, but its takes a hell of a lot of time! both filming and editing! cheers for the comments! :P
  4. cheers for the feedback! for once people like a video i made! :lol: reason being it was taken with a digi still cam, and compressed. But i didnt think it was too bad for the size of file.... :P keep up the comments people! cheers andy :S
  5. I think the front wheel looks amazing!!! hows is it done? tape? or paint? but the frame, doesnt look that "proffessional" i think its because you've tried to blur the white into the black, but you can still see the join. If you use a bit more white, you could eliminate this, then it would look ace. Otherwise. pretty sweet. 2hrs is bloody quick for a re-spray! lol (N)
  6. sweet gap.. rolling must have been very sketchy!! i'd never roll of a garage roof you crazy fool!! whens the vid (no. 4) coming out then? (N)

    New Video

    i like it. a little "tripod needed" in places. but apart from that its a ok! and i looove that music, first time i;ve heard of 'em. Must do some research..... :S
  10. this is all going in my suzuki vitara... (soft top) i brought some 13cm speakers already, but they're too big. I know its 10cm i need front and rear to replace the standard speakers... my idea was roughly, if i kitted out the back end of the jeep so much, when the hood was taken off, i could be a mobile stereo, for beach parties (something that happens a lot on an island!!) or simular. say i just upgraded the front speakers.... to those ones i mentioned. Then brought 6x9s and a sub and that amp. That ok? i see your point, 6 speakers is too many! lol if all this were to take place.... would a second car battery be a sensible option to run the stereo for a long time without the enigne on? cheers for the help! :S
  11. ""i've got a ferrari in red, one in green, one in yellow, but i dont suppose you make one in pink? ""
  12. ok amazing help guys.... thanks very much. but just to drag it along... i'll list a setup, i'm thinking about. and you or someone else can correct me if i get anything wrong.... headunit, 4X50W jobby ( i have 2 preouts on my headunit, soi'm guessing that means 2 amps? if so..... follow my idea....) connected to 2 amps - amp connected to: - 1) for the 4 car speakers ( a 4channel!?) - mite not bother with amp here..... 2) for 6x9s + sub (3channel!?) one more thing.... crossovers???dont know what they are, but is that any help to me?
  13. Ok, i'm not a complete beginner to the idea of a stereo system to a car. But i have become slightly confuddled when looking into some 6x9s, subs and amps. ok here goes.... (i'll number the quiestions, to make it easier for you guys to answer...) i have an alpine head unit... 4X50W, which i think means it can only throw out 4 50W outputs..? at the minute i have 4 standard car speakers connected to it. 1 ) If i upgrade to say 4 75W car speakers... i'm guessing it'll still work, just not to the speakers full potential? 2 ) if i want 6x9s in the boot, i will need an amp to power them? would this power all the other 4 speakers too? (6spkers in total?) 3 ) Would i need a seperate amp for a sub? 4 ) what does 2 / 3 / 4 channel amps mean? difference? 5 ) what does 'RMS' stand for on speakers? i thought it was like the standard input? then the max was if i amplified it, thats the max of the speakers? 6 ) am i making any sense to anybody? 7 ) i would like to stick to alpine goods, (cos i'm a little fussy when things dont match!) so could somebody point me in the right direction of 6x9s, small sub + amp as cheap as poss? thankyou in advance chaps and chapesses.... i have looked on the search but i cant find all my answers... cheers andy
  14. .....chocolate banana bombs, back in the 1900s these were put to good use in the war, they killed every single.....
  15. ....and in doing so discovered the purple hippopotimous could talk as he said "holy F**k, what are you doing", the crowd watching at the zoo were so amazed at the talking hippo they........
  16. yo dude, i know exactly how your feeling. after 4months with the love of my life.... she wanted to be single, so it would'nt hurt me to pull around.... at this point we kinda just ended up being *uck buddies. Which to me seemed the same as going out, but she was allowed to play with other guys aswell. I loved her soooo much i let her have her way. Thinking eventually she'd turn back to me, and be all mine once again. But it never happened. After 2months of this "break" type stuff, i brought up the corouage (sp?) to call it a day. Many times i had talked about it with her, our arguements got bigger and bigger, but i really didnt wanna be enemies, but this time i just had to block her completely out! it hurt me more than anything. But i didnt see any other way out! That was about a month ago, 1 or 2 times a week i see her, phone her. Shes got someone else, and it still kills me to see her with someone else. I can still make myself really depressed just thinking about it. But overall, shes gone, and its much better than sort of being with her. Before her, i just rode my bike to get rid of all problems, to be in my own world. But this girl was special. She occupied my mind EVEN, yes, even whilst i was riding! Something i had never encountered before! (Y) I still think of her all the time, i'm getting better, i WILL get over it all eventually i think (Y) as i said, i'm in the same boat at the mo, just a month on, all i can suggest is spend all your free time doing something, with your mates / bikes. I hate being on my own, i always end up thinking of her soo much i have to pick up that phone. we're mates now, flirty mates though, and it still hurts me. I want revenge on her new guy, but whats the point!? i want to pull around and get over her, but after trying it just reminds me more of her, (and the way she used to do it!), so i think it'll be a while till i find another loverly lady..... sorry for this comment as it probly wont help much, but, ::: Theres not much you can do, just try not to think about it too much, occupy your time with mates and your bike and very load music! make the most of your life, you've only got one chance, you HAVE to move on, no matter how hard it hurts. Shes not the one, otherwise you'd still be there, there will always be one better, thats the hope that keeps me going. good luck, and sorry for the essay.... :D
  17. ........jon grangers house, this happens on a daily basis, just like .........
  18. is it me? or does this topic keep on re-appearing over and over.... god its annoying, its finally got to the point whereby i might aswell add a reply... theres mine, i really just wanted to show off my new jeep!! :- :P"
  19. cool ride dude, but are those panaracer 2.4 tyres?? if so, out of experience i can tell you that your going to be putting in twice the effort than usual! those things and soo soft and sticky, Far too much friction for freeride. I personally dont even like them for downhill! they're that slow. Maybe some high rollers (of the harder compound!?) or michellins? anyhoo, the colour scheme works well. I like it, think i might have to post up some of my other bikes on here too.... (Y) stick it on the mbuk forum and see what they're opinions are...
  20. this is how a giant should look.... yellow, or not yellow, they all ride the same! mines the only one with sus too so far.... i would highly advise all you guys to try it out... i got some 80mm bombers on here! i admit though, it needs some changes, like no more stickers in the wheels. And maybe some black 'burns! shimano DX all the way! cool topic guys! (Y) :P
  21. bugger kevin up a car for the roads.... why not make an offroad 4WD monster? well thats my plan anyway.... just got it a week back now.... gunna take off the side steps for more clearance + change the black rusty bull bar for a nice crome solid one to ram silly people! :D" Also thinking about a 3inch rise :) :blink: !? 1.6 engine too! so its not slow. Problem is i fooked the engine running it without oil, but i'm still using it anyway.... her she is...
  22. ok i started it, as i'm dead bored, and if its not coursework i'll do anything. But its not actually possible. you will need a much higher quality picture to begin with. I got most of the way there.... then gave up, because there isnt the qaulity to see every spoke. And, no, i'm not gunna do it again with a new picture! :- heres half an attempt....
  23. well nobody has mentioned it yet, but i use... WinMX for single track downloads, (starting to get slow, and not good for new music!) Exeem, for videos :( and Bit-tiorrent + mininova.org for dvds and full albums... but i keep changing, i have found emule to be pretty good. I dont use it personally though. Cant be arsed to change my ways anymore... hope this helps (Y)
