  1. It's the Raw file off a Canon 30D, and maybe the 400D now actually. You can do it with Photoshop, but you need the Camera Raw 3.4 or higher plugin. Or any Raw conversion software, but I don't know which ones are free. Or you can use Picasa (by google), though that tends to make a hash of converting files. Alternatively, chuck em in my direction and I'll sort you out. How many of them are there? I ain't doing it if there's like 100.

    Zeitgeist

    The first bit was mildly interesting, but a bit long and drawn out. The other two bits were complete toss. A conspiracy theory? Involving the US? Pffft. Then another conspiracy theory, about the illuminati? What a load of bollocks. If you want to watch conspiracy theories, please do, there's loads about. This is nothing new at all.

    It is quite a lot every day though! As in about 90 units a week when the maximum is 21. It's enough to do yourself a lot of damage, anyway.

    It's the dehydration that gives you the headache and the feeling tired, so drink plenty. Not just water, as you need electrolytes to absorb the water, so anything with a bit of sugar/salt in it - Orange juice is my tip, it makes you feel healthy too.
  5. I think people need to calm down (and stop insulting the guy even more - that's not going to help). I am pretty sure no-one here knows the whole story, so shouldn't jump to any conclusions - and certainly shouldn't insult more people about this.
  6. Mmmm, if Tupman Sr and co aren't VERY careful, that's exactly what it will look like... I agree with Bongo, the organisation of trials in the UK is a complete mess and it's ridiculous. This sort of thing really doesn't help anyone.
  7. You probably don't need to mess about with the jumper settings (Slave/master and all that) because most computers these days just work it all out automatically with the hard drives set to CS (cable select). So basically unscrew the hard drive from the old computer, turn the new computer off (that's quite important ) and then just plug in any cables that fit
  8. What version of Windows you using? Did you install the drivers before plugging it in? I assume the instructions would tell you what to do, but on mine, you HAVE to install the drivers before plugging in the USB port otherwise it doesn't work. Remove all the automatically installed stuff in device manager, run the install program and THEN plug it in when it says. Mine ain't the official MCE one though, so it might be different.
  9. Yes, but Dave was banned and then he used someone else's account to get around that. It was basically like telling the mods to f**k off. It's not just like he signed into someone else's account for a joke or something.
  10. lol It's not even flat-flat
  11. My netgear router's being a bit funny. After a year of being on constantly, it's starting to do funny things. The wireless isn't as reliable as it used to be, and the networking also fails occasionally.

    Crocs!

    So you want to be different, like all those millions of other people who want to be different?
  13. Good idea! What did you use to turn the nut? Or did you just rely on good old fashioned norwegian strength?
  14. Have you got a router or anything like that? If you do, just plug two NORMAL ethernet cables into it. If you don't, then you'll have to get a crossover cable from one PC to the other. You'll need to set up Windows file + printer sharing on both computers, then share the whole of the drive of your old computer. But like someone else said, if you can take the computer apart, it's much easier to put the old hard drive in new computer - it would probably save a lot of faff because Windows networks are a pain.
  15. That's well lucky! Well done on getting it back.

    Wheel Build Cheat

    It might be worth getting a multi-size spoke key because your nipples (if you measured them right) aren't the ones you usually find on decent bikes - in my experience anyway. Most bikes take the green Park one which is 0.33cm I think. So if you bought one for your spokes it might not work on any other wheels, which would be a bit annoying. I bought one of THESE - it's much nicer than the Park sharp-cornered triangle one IMO. Or you could just get some more nipples from somewhere and use new ones - I have loads of nipples lying around that I never use, I'm sure you must know someone near you who does.

    Even before I could see your feet, you looked gay. The shoes didn't help. Just joking, you look kool.
  18. Is there? The trick is to make sure the camera stays very still. It can be tempting to pan with the rider a bit, but that ruins it.
  19. Basically I've never used a graphics tablet but I'd be interested to try one. They seem to range in price from £20 to £200+, so are the cheap ones OK or just a waste of money? I'd just be using it for Photoshop I think Mainly retouching as opposed to actually drawing original stuff.
  20. Wow, so you're a fat b*****d with one leg bigger than the other. You must be a real hit with the ladies. Just kidding (I'm not really). At least you're on the mend though, it'll fly by. Just don't do anything stupid on the first day back riding and spanner yourself again
  21. Where is this wall you speak of? Who wants a group ride?
  22. Yeah, learn to do the cones because it's really easy and you'll need to do it in the future too.
