I can't take a picture of the RPG I'm supposed to cover because I don't know how to use a camera, use flash or simply don't have anything to illuminate it properly without fuckint it over.

Time to scan! Or take the pictures from the developer's website.

Xeogred wrote:A good update on that... he called and was really apologetic about everything and I guess his brothers were really pressured about things too (the other groomsman). He also finally texted my roommate so hopefully they can reconcile. So yeah, I guess he got the hint from me and now we've both made things clear.

Still, it's just a reminder it's probably friends like this that are best kept at a distance. Who knows when this'll happen again. But hopefully there's some light at the end of the tunnel here...

And yeah showing up at a wedding as a regular guest is like the easiest thing ever, haha. Wish I did that here... but hopefully we can work things out and it'll all go smoothly.
Good to hear. Sometimes all it takes to get a friend back on track is a metaphorical slap on the back of the head for them to realize they need to stop being an a$$.

I hope you don't have any more major hiccups from here on out.

What kind of camera do you have? A SLR and a tripod (or some sort of stable flat surface) will give you better results than most point-and-shoots. And if you're taking it off of a screen then you won't want to use a flash anyway, it'd be to reflective. You'd have to set the camera to let in the right amount of light when you take the picture.

Here is some very basic information, if you'd like it for future reference.

I love Firepower 2000, just don't like the Heli (except in Stage 5!) 8)

One could also claim they enjoy ExedExes but hate the ship (and my avatar) as well :lol:

Smiled - looked at an awesome house yesterday and put a bid in for it this morning.
Ticked - moments after submitting it our agent got a call from the bank about the first house we bid on. We were right, the banks agent was playing funny bunnies and is no longer employed there. So we have 48 hours to decide if we want to buy the house before it is relisted...
