My vote goes to scotch, with Custy's in second for the idea.

DeLorean at 88 mph.

NEXT: A superhero.

I'm from the UK and I have no clue as to what a chav/charver is.  Is it some sort of urban kudos, or something?

Also, Scotch would be a good person to seek out for this project, too.

Programs I've used and, to some extent, liked:

Win Patrol
Notifies you if start up has changed, and lets you block things from happening when you do start up.

Disk Keeper:
Defrags while you idle.

Vel ain't to blame for the score, I am.  Vel was on your side, as the following log shows.

<Vel> overall
<Vel> OK, send me any files, Ive got autoaccept all
<Vel> and contact me in 25 mins
<Iqu> um.. that's it so far
<Iqu> i'm going to go with 74%
<Vel> no
<Iqu> nice round number
<Vel> higher
<Vel> or
<Vel> hmm
<Vel> dude
<Vel> from what Ive played of it, it should get, like, uh 80 or more?
<Iqu> 74 is as high as i'm going
<Iqu> it's buggy tho
<Iqu> which is mentioned in the review
<Vel> ok
<Iqu> and it is mentioned that it would get higher after some tweaking
<Vel> so, how I rate them is
<Vel> 20 for gfx, 20 for sound and music, 20 for plot 20 for gameplay and 20 extra for bugginess, manuals etx
<Vel> etc
<Iqu> k
<Iqu> gfx 15/20
<Vel> so, is that it?
<Vel> 15?
<Iqu> sfx/music 15/20
<Iqu> they weren't very detailed
<Vel> dude thats freaking beautiful - dont judge them on commercial manner
<Iqu> nice, but pretty empty
<Vel> well ok
<Vel> its your review
<Vel> you'll take the crits
<Iqu> plot 18
<Iqu> gameplay 17 or 18
<Iqu> bugginess/manuals 4
<Iqu> it had a readme
<Iqu> that comes to 69/70
<Iqu> so, go with 74
<Iqu> also, nothing would get top scores, because that would mean it could possibly be improved upon
<Iqu> couldn't
<Iqu> rather
<Iqu> what stuffs do you want for a bio?
<Vel> well I dunno, what would be interesting for the reader
<Iqu> about me? probly nothing
<Vel> er,
<Vel> erm
<Vel> then some general stuff
<Vel> and that you like the ezine much, and it would be an honour to write for m... it
<Iqu> what? like the average speed of a water buffalo?
<Vel> ...
<Vel> what you enjoy doing, where you study, etc
<Iqu> study?
<Iqu> we've discussed this before.. i'm a bum
<Vel> you have a band, no?
<Iqu> yea
<Vel> well then, write about it
<Iqu> but i don't use it as a revision aid
<Vel> bah, general stuff about yourself
<Iqu> i'll think of something i guess
<Iqu> do you have a bio in the zine?
<Vel> nope
<Iqu> why not?
<Iqu> and why must i have one?
<Vel> because I started it all
<Iqu> or is the zine a bit thin this month?
<Vel> And because you are the new kid in town
* Vel does the air piano
<Iqu> new kid? haven't i been around longer than you?
<Vel> not in the ezine
<Iqu> that's what you think..
<Vel> no, really, get working

<Iqu> you never told me about may mags reviews
<Iqu> don't suddenly spring things on me like this
<Vel> I did!
<Vel> and the interview
<Iqu> the interview i'm working on, now the review's done
<Iqu> but i swear, you never mentioned mags
<Iqu> what game's is it?
<Iqu> games, rather
<Vel> coup le coup and ralph the raven
<Vel> write two short reviews
* Iqu searches forums for DL links
<Vel> completed games, I think they are either on the first or on the second page
<Iqu> DLing now
<Vel> k
<Vel> ClC is really cool
<Vel> never played RtR
<Iqu> just 'cause you think it's cool, don't expect it to get 100%

<Vel> you'll see

So. there you see.  Stop picking on Vel about harsh reviews, as he's just coming crying to me.  Like a small child with a grazed knee.  Baby.

I heard there's ways of getting it to work one last time, by manually spinning.  It's s'posed to allow a recovery.  Google for tuts.

I wouldn't worry. I doubt m0ds'll ever get around to releasing it.

My suggestion is shading.
Poo-poo it if you must.

I'm with strazer, here.  It looks like he has very small but very wobbly breasts.

Considering it's s'posed to be the Enterprise D, I kinda doubt it.

Jeez, Riker.  Will you ever learn?*

Not my best work, but thankfully not my worst either.

*(TerranRICH will probly be the only one who gets this).

Hotel rooms I've seen tend to be very neutral colors.  Like "Magnolia".  Search google for Interior Design sites.  Certain colors cause certain emotions and moods.  Hotelliers know this, and decorate accordingly.  Or at least, the decent one's do.

Al's idea. A hat, wearing character.


Since you've peeped up with the story of the days of old and stuff.. I hope you're going to enter, LGM.

Second one's better, imo.Ã,  Both r0x0rz, tho. Like most stuff you do.
It'd take me months to do what you do in fifteen minutes.

EDIT:

Had a stab at the head shape.  Ignore the yellow box, I forgot to fix the colors in PSP.

Whee. Congrats.

Now begins the exponentially increase drain on money and patience.  It'll perk up slightly when you hit about 65, but not for long.

We did something like this in school once.  It wasn't much fun.

Good first attempt, but like Eric, I'd suggest working on the body shape a bit.
The following is a rather poorly drawn try at hands and armor.

I like the beefy, action man on steriods feel to him, tho.
