La Lacroix

Post by Blitzen » Thu May 28, 2009 5:49 pm

I just started using Flickr, which is LEAGUES better than Photobucket. I love it.

This is a pretentious ship, obviously owned by a pretentious pilot. This pilot has to deal with all sorts of Space Brigands trying to steal and destroy his ship out of disdain; that's what the beam cannon is for. This pilot also like to keep the hull clean. NO STEP!

Gallery.

No. Flickr has a whorrible site layout and shrinks everything really fucking tiny.

The best solution is to buy your own webspace.

Or maybe I should give out webspace or something.

I actually like that Flickr resizes images*, as my camera is taking 1600 x 1200 photos. If I needed to post something bigger with a ton of detail, it might bother me, but this size is cool for now.

*If you don't, you could always click 'All Sizes' to see the original version. Big.

Blitzen, you're cooler than most people here. Do you want free webspace from me?

I don't need webspace, and if I did, I have free hosts. Thanks for the offer, though.

Nice ship, looks like some custom racer job. I also like how you got that blue light in there. Nice effect. Reminds me that I need to start taking better photos of my stuff.

All those in favor of Blitzen posting stuff more often?

To be honest, the blue is partly a side effect of the editing. To make the background white(it was off white), I had to mess with levels. The other part was due to the lighting from my monitor. The forum and my taskbar light up the right side of the ship.

You know, this post is very ironic. You criticized Blitzen for one spelling error, and in that post you used absolutely no capitalization or punctuation.

Some form of sarcasm maybe?

No, just j+b being j+b.
That's a really cool ship, I like the SNOT. You need to post more stuff.

Flickr > Brickshelf > MOCpages > Photobucket

You should upload your dark green fighter you made a while ago, Blitzen. That was awesome.
I think those stats only apply to non-Mexicans.
