is it wrong to consider myself all of those? (ok maybe not funny but meh...) (actually i have no idea how my post count jumped suddenly in the past 4 months...)

Peoples post's are like poems (literature) - it gives you an idea of the writer's character, no matter how hard one tries to hide it. It also takes stereotypes out of the equation.

i dunno what stereo types you're avoiding but you can gauge a person by their words alone. although not something to strictly stick by on forums...considering you cant hear tone or see body language.
i dunno... maybe you mean something like "OMG ThAT JOKER HAS A GIANT MOLE WE TOTALLY CANTT TRUST A WORD HE SAYS", judgements people make when they see something weird about who they see...




anyway, on an ontopic note i should post my desktop sometime because i haven't done it yet...
i'll do it while im working on stuff so you see how i never close anything until i turn off the computer or need the ram.
right now i have 22 tabs open because i cant be bothered closing them... they are all SM threads, i just follow the links when i get the email

i'll give you $333 if you get someone to take a real picture of you doing that in a similar car in a similar setting with no fancy software fixes/hacks

real time reflections... that's pretty cool

yes dual setup is so much better. I dont like having a cramped up maya scene with all the tools in front of me.

Also easy to have two programs open in each screen.

Or watch movies while you work. Or whatever really.
