    I get giddy just thinking about Trent!! Oh to be a secretary!
    I think Trent could be made into a thrilling series á la the Ross o'Carroll Kelly books.

    I am spectacularly bored tonight(Saturday and all) so i thought i'd give a Trent movie teaser poster a shot.

    edit: removed quoted image

    You'll have to forgive its obvious sloppiness but its a first go that i threw together and what little PS chops i had are long gone since being out of work but does it do the good man justice?

    LOL at the false modesty.
    That's excellent and you know it.

    I've removed all the bitchy posts and also any images which were quoted, to make this a bit more readable (one quoted post was left as the poster removed the original).

    Jackyback and cloneslad banned for one week for personal abuse

    davyjose, Eliot Rosewater (and anyone else for that matter)- any more derailing the thread and you get the same

    Rules are fairly simple - report posts you find objectionable and stay as close to on-topic as you like. Discussion of, appreciation of and disdain for 'The Madman?' are welcome, personal abuse is not.

    Absolutely love it! Soo many people would not get this....great to have so many like (warped minds).

    Trent for me is a mix of Vinnie Jones Jason Statham Daniel Craig and Michael Marsden

    We knew he was a liability. This can only end one way now, and it's not going to be pretty.

    He's not a liability. He is a loose cannon.

    Correction he has two loose cannons:p

    I love how everytime I re-read it I come across subtle little lines I didn't really notice properly before.
    "I can well remember that noise from the time I was in the army" Trent thought. No time for thinking, he thought.

    Hahaha.

    But I'd follow Trent anywhere, probably right up until he shot me.

    People are making some ludicrous suggestions as to who would play Trent, I can only picture Trent as Humphrey Bogart, smooth and badass both at the same time, pure Trent!

    tbh, anyone who sets up a website for a little story would be stupid....also this is the myspace of the guy who wrote it, yer man only tweaked it...too many quotes there that could be made up in one day.....http://www.myspace.com/trenten1234

    Well, the website was set up today. If you view the site, all entries were published on the 14th of January, 2010 (ie. today) so the website is brand new anyway, whether the story is or not...

    And it was set-up the day paidraiggg said he'd just set up a website...So Paidraigg definitely set-up the website. I can't see anything on that guys myspace, so you're going to need more proof. (Not you Jackobyte, the skeptic)

    Don't worry about the begrudgers. Everyone in this thread is going crazy for Trent so you're doing something right.

    Keep it up!

    PS, I'm sure some people would like to see new chapters being posted here whenever they become available....please :o.....
