If there's anything I'm good at it's photoshop.
You may not realise but that is actually two different photos merged :pac:

And on top of all that you'll only be a mere passenger!

I know your only joking but what do you all use for simple photoshopping like pasting a bit of one photo onto another one just simple stuff.

I'd use photoshop, but only cos i have it, but id use paint too or word

Interslice

Try out paint.net. It's freeware and better than paint with way more features but still easy to use.

Foxhole Norman

GIMP too, quare handy.

CianRyan

But if you have PS, then why not use it?
There really isn't anything difficult about it.

20-odd per cent through grand theft auto 5 already.

I think this play station might have been the best purchase I have made this year.

So the time is nearing to replace my radiator as there's a small leak coming from the current one, and im getting low coolant level warnings nearly every week I have a radiator but a few of the fins are damaged, around the sides it'l be ok to install it though wont it?

The fins don't leak its the galleries or tubes or whatever you call them inbeteen that leak. Yet to see a rad witout damaged fins.

But his one is a 1.6tdi 90bhp. What did the insurance company think 'Jesus he's only 20 we may ramp up the policy sure he will be out every night racing it' :pac: the thoughts of me pulling up to a red light beside someone spinning the wheels the minute the light turns green bouncing it off the limiter in every gear yep it just wasn't going to :pac: besides it has to be red I before you can felt it up.

You're only 20? In all honesty, I genuinely thought you were in your 50's at the very least

Picked up one of those Google Chrome cast thingys today in Curry's. They're selling them off for €29. Fantastic piece of kit. Have d'YouTube on d'telly while I'm typing shíte on d'boards with d'computaaaar :pac:

Still figuring out the basics but am impressed. 4 or 5 years ago I was a technology whiz kid. I knew the ins and outs of the latest gadget. Lost interest as soon as random people started asking me how to burn CDs (basically asking me to do it for them) or convert their CDs to MP3s.

Chromecasts are the business, if you have the extension for Chrome you can cast your tab too for wireless streaming, pretty handy, no need for HDMI's really, bar the decreased resolution.

Ahhhh....I think thats what I'm doing now. Maybe not. I'm not sure. I'll let you decide.

I've the laptop connected to Chromecast. I'm using this tab to browse the interweb and talk to you. I've another tab opened with youtube on the TV playing stop the cavalry Am I doing it right?

Also have the phone hooked up which lets me play the likes of youtube and netflix while using the phone as normal

Yep, that's all right. If you want to watch something on a site that's not chromecastable such as Boards for example, you could cast the whole tab so the whole page shows up on the TV.

If you've an Android phone I recommend getting Popcorn Time for it, it's like Netflix but uses Torrents for viewing it instead, you can cast it too.

Special Circumstances

Yoink, just joined the chromecast club. Thanks for the heads up on the offer!

MuppetCheck

If you are of the Android persuasion Google "showbox apk" and install localcast as the media player:D

MuppetCheck

Oh, and the earliest version of it that you can get - newest version seems buggy.

Special Circumstances

Hadnt been into the Currys in limerick in ages. Roundabout on the way in used to surfaced with teflon, great place for a quick "powerslide".
Rocked in this morning, high grip surface gone down on the apex - fair enough. But 4 of those dirty metal triangley speed ramps too?

Cherry wood cars and coffee is this Sunday morning if anyone is heading? I'm going in my winter hack, supposed to be a lot of Alfa Ireland members going along with the usual super car crowd..

Supposed to be sunny and dry so no excuse for chickening out and should be great weather for taking some arty winter pics
