Oh, that soon? I hate time zones. I loose track of time anyways.

My birthday was 2 days before Christmas, if anyone wanted to KNOW.

Happy new year, to you to Smirftsch (runs to play Earthbound) lol.


EDIT: Hey I predict in the year to come that 227 will become exceedingly popular, some day. And perhaps more people will play Unreal 1 often with all the new features being added.

Nice photo's. I'm just back from a small scale party with my family. Traditionally with fireworks, champagne and [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliebol]oliebollen[/url]. My fireworks was not as impressive as yours but still very enjoyable.

By the way: I left a special New Year's message at my website. :-)

those pics make me drool, i saw some spectacular fireworks, even some of my own. However everything i captured on my camera was pretty much useless for any fullscreen viewing (me can't afford a cam, and has to use the one i got with my cellphone).

Anyways happy new year everyone! and for some of you my plans for this year are finally releasing my damn mod ;)

What mod is that, Turboman? And nice fireworks Diehard, maybe I should make some firework effects using Dots' xemitter, and set them off in my Wastelandhouse-Night.unr map.

Every christmas and new year my life is NEVER happy, and I'm in constant pain from what I remembered in the past, blah blah blah no one needs to hear this.


I'd be surprised if a few Tribes2 Construction servers are setting off firework guns like crazy tonight. Hahahaha, yeah.

I missed out on the champagne, for the first time in my life, but my father offered me a nice bowl of cognac  8-)

But i did get my [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliebol]Oliebollen[/url] :) My mom forced me to take another six of them home with candysugar in a bag lol. Got three kinds, the plain ones, the ones with raisins and some [url=http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appelflap]appelflappen[/url] (couldnt find an English version)




Photos were taken with a Canon 400D with:
70-300 lens (used full zoom most of the time)(second photo was about half a mile away, other two about a quarter mile)
200 ASA
2.5 sec exposure time
F11 diafragma

And all that on a tripod with a cable remote shutter. Btw, i bought the camera for the textures but its also usefull for such things. First time ever i tried take shots from firework.

Textures?.. You mean to tell me some of the S3TC textures you produce are based off of real life photos? Never knew that.
