    Ah, no, I guess it must be in the "Best Of..." thread, I saw it from my phone yesterday but I didnt bother to look into it. Gonna do it now, thank you very much
  2. Is there any major difference between Flickr and ImageShack?
  3. Don't think so. Try them and find out.

    I'll try Flickr since you can upload stuff directly to it from iPhoto.
  5. I didn't know you could do that. Thanks!
  6. I also was able to just use my FB account.
  7. Drew: Buckethead? Really? I could never sink myself into it.
  8. Olof: I'll check that out. Using a FB account may be easier.

    Matt: You bet. Start with Colma.
  9. You can upload to Imageshack without having an user, and photos can't be commented or rated - they're just hosted. On the other hand, in Flickr your pics can be commented and shared, it's more social-user oriented. That's why I chose Flickr over Imageshack for sharing my Dublin pictures

    Yeah, I've used ImageShack a bit, will probably upload a few pics to Flickr now though, just because it's easier
  11. I fucking hate when idiots decide to chuck all their shit in your room, effectively contradicting my ideas for what I wanted - my shit in my room. Not a dumping ground for their shit.
  12. Fair enough, each to their own. Got a friend to turn their opinion of U2 around the other night, that was cool. Here was the magic formula:

    1) Play through Still Haven't Found, Streets, With or Without You, Sunday Bloody Sunday, Vertigo, & I Will Follow...this was "to get a feel for how U2 sounds", because the radio hits are the only ones they are familiar with.

    2) Remind the subject that the last thing the public had heard from U2 were the likes of Desire and Angel of Harlem, Streets, etc.

    3) Begin Achtung Baby

    4) After the initial shock of Zoo Station wears off, move on to The Fly. The subject will already be slightly impressed with how badass this music is compared to the "pussy crap" they are used to hearing from U2 (Beautiful Day, etc.)

    5) Pause The Fly halfway through and insist that they never lost those balls. Tell the subject that what you are about to play is the same song they just heard, ten years after the release date of Achtung Baby, and play The Fly from Elevation-Boston. Subject is wooed.

    6) Continue to play The Fly from Vertigo-Chicago. My particular subject's jaw had dropped at how consistently different/still fucking amazing the song sounded.

    7) Repeat with virtually every other good U2 song ever. My roommate, at this point, had come in the room, queued up the Rose Bowl blu-ray, and told the girl I was with that "This was what made him buy his U2360 tickets and turned him into a serious fan", and we watched "City of Blinding Lights", "Streets", and UV.
