...but men don't usually dress up as Belle, Merida, or Sailor Venus (then again I am going to a Sci Fi con nest week so who knows what I'll see).
I see no reason why they shouldn't, if that's the way their fancy takes it. There's a really great male version of Slave Princess Leia, for example, but even if he did it as a female version straight-as-is, sure, knock yourself out. Enjoy the day.
Sorry to interrupt...
I knew it was just a matter of time, but:

This is probably old news to those of you in Europe, but apparently the Dolphin Apocalypse has begun...
No "So long and thanks for all the fish", this time its "Die human scum" or "EEEEEEEEEEEE, EEeeeEEeeeee, EEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEeee"
in Dolphin- in case you happen to hear a dolphin shouting that at you.
I really thought it would be the Feline Apocalypse first, but apparently the cats had something more important to do instead.
My best suggestion is get one of these:

Learn to squeak and squeal a lot and try to maintain a decent level of fish breath... this is the best advice I can give.
In the event this reaches you too late, I am sorry... you will be avenged... well, mostly...
As for me I will be joining the Free Human Resistance League (not affiliated with the S&M club in NYC of the same name) and going underground (Dolphins don't burrow well).
Good luck my friends...
I now return you to your previously scheduled thread...
rendering chapter phoofs seemed a good idea 2 years ago.
The journalist seems unduly relaxed - if, instead of swimming out into the Atlantic, the dolphins turned left at Alb...in the Mediterranean and swam through the Suez Canal into the Indian Ocean they'd have a much more direct route to Oz.
I wasn't judging the show or the stories or the lessons it may give. To do that, I'd have to watch it. I guess I shouldn't have spoken my mind. I'm not into the cosplay thing, either. I'm a big fan of Star Trek, but I never dressed up as Spoc or Kirk, either. I'm not one for doing that kind of thing normally. Maybe I'm not one to speak of these things, either. Sorry I did. I meant no offense to you, or anyone, and certainly don't want to start some kind of war here.

I would like to have attended a Trek convention, or Star Wars convention. But I wouldn't wear the costumes...at least I don't think so. Maybe I'm too insecure, introspective or some other "in" word.
Yes, I'm aware of the toilet paper thing and a few others. Like I said, to each his own. I'm sure it's fun to them. I did kind of like the movie. It was fun.

...actually they're is a super secret closed tree meeting discussing their nefarious plot to take over the world.
If any animal could, I think squirrels would be the ones.

30Foxtrot degrees.
i brought my buppy granola milkbones, he's not impressed. he's giving me the sulky eyed stare.
watching Brave t'nite. some hot tomato soup to warm the chills and shivers away. :)
Chilly Willies, er Chilly Willy. Tennessee Tuxedo.
whaz the red stuff in Tequila Sunrise? was it triple sex? i'm out of tequila, actually, but rum is here, and tangerine juice.
starting to feel warmer. phoof
if only i had champagne, could make mimosas.
follow the pretty wisp!
when bears attack!
oh, i forgot all about Tennessee Tuxedo's friend Chumley.
there wasn't much going on in CGI in the 60's. plastic models on strings. Jeanie's lil smoke packet on a string when she came out of her genie bottle.
Morning. Sunny, warm here :)
...sunny this evening. Must have been a nice day. Napped through it.
Woke up with a scratchy throat & cough this morning. Laid down for a bit after brunch and when I turned over & looked at the clock, it was 17:15. Dozed off for almost four hours.
There is an Easter Stork? That looks...uncomfortable :lol:
Looks good :)
aftrnoon naps are the best kind !
i'm reheating the leftover pizza from last Monday. gonna need a break from pizza after living on pizza for days. lol
Couldn't get by without cat naps. Why are they called cat naps?
Looks great, full moon is a nice touch :)
Temporary end of Thread.Spam() for the moment
...finally got caught up?
looks that way.
yikes
i'm reading the 'self editing for fiction writers'. big eye opener in ch 1.
oh noes.
resisting an urge to skip to the chapter on 'beats'.
2) Realistic expectations: when Twilight Sparkle participates into a running contest, not having run one before, she does not somehow become the winner, but scores fifth place nonetheless. When Fluttershy goes through a training montage to increase her wingpower, she does not leap from zero to hero, but achieves notable improvement in any case. Which ends up making the difference between failure and winning.
THIS. I am so unbelievably annoyed at movies and cartoons that have a character being a total washout and overall bumbling idiot and FLOP through 9 tenths of the film or series and then suddenly... Seconds before the villain finishes him off... By some miracle everything just "makes sense" to him, and he turns around and kicks the crap out of the villain and spends the rest of his life as the next Hercules or whatever famous hero figure you choose, whereas the last 53 minutes of the film he couldn't tie his own shoes, tell left from right, pick up a sword, or even in extreme cases spell his own name.
Similarly dislike characters magically becoming awesome at something they've never once done before in their lives, only to prove the "If you think you can" theme.
As for the squirrel plotting thing... Honestly, call me naive but I have no idea where all this hype for squirrels, penguins and whatnot came from.
>_>
<_<<br /> If any creatures would end up doing so, IMO Corvids would be my best bet.

I once got to meet and speak at length to James Doohan, Nichelle Nichols, George Takei, and Walter Koenig at a local electronics store in Chattanooga years ago. It was sometime just before the release of the 2nd film, and they were in uniform, signing autographs before the Convention. Their limo was late arriving, so I asked if they minded if a friend and I chatted with them while they were waiting; they were very kind, gracious and friendly to a couple of star-stuck silly fan-boys. We found out they were truly grateful to the fans - warm and generous people.
We eventually made it to the Convention, but I'll always treasure that half-hour with them.

grenadine. :)
James Doohan was an incredibly good man.
He was indeed.
grenadine. :)
...And Professor Whoopee!
no memory of the professor. but i think Tennessee had a voice like Maxwell Smart - agent 86. not to be confused with agent 99 :)
i read through chapter 8 so far. omg. tomorrow i have to start going through my work and cut all the adverbs in speak attributes, check for disposition disguised as dialog. re-evaluate beats, internal monologues thought attributes. narrative distance - head scr'ch - gonna leave that one alone and ponder it for the next project. i'm psyched to start polishing, but i need some sleep or i might end up with polished gibberish.

That's very cool! I understood that they were very genuine people from other reports.

...ohhh, those fuzzy tailed little buggers are extremely devious. Their first (and still primary) method of attack is to dash out in front of cars and force the driver to swerve to miss them usually resulting in a wreck.
...and if you ask Socratease, it is cows who will rule the cosmos.

XD
Honestly, around here most of the folks I know just plow 'em down and don't bother swerving. It's dogs and cats that we skid to a halt or swerve to miss =)
Haha well I'm thinking more of the world as we know it and less of the great cosmos :)
I think reptiles and crows/ravens will take over quite nicely when we finally leave. Reptiles are a lot smarter than most give them credit for. They even know how to play :D
That's because it was...it was the voice of Don Adams!

Four minutes of rendering of a well-fed biguana lizard.
I likes my bellies, I admit it ^_^;
Indigo =3
Haha, guess this could be considered a "Pointless and unneeded render drop" of the "Unbiased renderer" variety, sub-class "Om noms Renders" and "Fantasy Reptiles" categorization.
Am learning more about Indigo's lights though. Seems using the default Reinhard tonemapping type mutes all the colors and lights and they don't process very well. Using a realistic camera model simulation instead produces more accurate results, and the lights work better rather than being all of the same light strength. Murr =3
*edit* And yus that's Spyro's news studio. I imagine he'd have hoped it would be put to better use than this though XD
