You're the breast, DB. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Here's Steamshot, an old British Big Game Hunter spun out of his time and dimension by his friend, Charles Babbage, and the scientist's young protege, H.G.Wells. He carries with him the Sullivan & Drake Gemini Mark VI Automated Ammunition Adjusting (AAA) Steam Rifle (with all the most pertinent upgrades, of course).

It was fun getting him that rifle at level 1, lemme tell you. I really do need to work up a full Virtueverse page for him, though.

That is a freaking awesome costume.

Woah, her husband is one lucky guy. Congratulations!

My cat Spot. I had him since he was a newborn. Shortly after he was born, he caught pink eye and that's what I wanted to name him at first, Pink Eye. My dad didn't like it though, so I named him Spot after Data's cat in Star Trek: The Next Generation. Unfortunately, he died rather unexpectedly last May. He was only 7 years old, and I miss him a lot.

Oh and Aot is 37 over on Virtue woot!

Really? Dang, I must've been playing GTA IV and Mass Effect for longer than I thought. Last I saw you were in the low 20s, heh.

I think people don't realize how hard it is to run a home business before they start one. Gill is a very talented artist, but he may not have the business sense to run things smoothly and successfully.

All depends on the choice of undergarment.

Yup the banded skirt, the very same that Soul wears. :/ I think it happened to all the skirt patterns. Like every pattern got rotated 90 degrees. Here's a screenie of it.

We need these skirts in real life. Just as long as neither Britney Spears nor Paris Hilton are allowed to wear them.

But, but, I remember clearly reading a psot by BaB where he mentions he did make a Rularuu Claw or something! D=

[/ QUOTE ]
He did, but I think there were problems with it so they didn't put it in for the time being.

So my question is why are the sig heroes dressing up in period outfits?
Or is that revealed through the story line?

[/ QUOTE ]
Predecessors to the Phalanx, basically. There's a reason Imperious' faceplate looks suspiciously familiar. Also, I want Daedalus's costume.

We have a lot of fine artists here, but Graver will always be my favorite. That man could spin a pile of elephant dung into gold.

Congrats to the winners, enjoy your Dragonberry chibi booty!

Great! 7 PM it is!








What time zone?

With something like that, I'd bet that the decision to prosecute for trademark or copyright infringement is based on the owner's discretion. Marvel or DC could decide to go after every violator and enforce their IP with a vengence, or they could ignore all the piddly little violations and go after the big guys trying to get away with unlicensed merchandizing and such. They probably have a hard enough time nailing all the big violators, so my guess is that they'll leave the small time guys, like tattoo artists, alone (unless they decide to open a chain of tattoo parlors).

I don't think anyone has ever gotten a clear answer on that. I think the EULA says that any characters created are the property of the developer/publisher (at least as far as the costume creator goes), and it was long assumed by the art community that this was the reason that CoX wasn't all that supportive of the fan art community. However, I've never gotten the impression that NCSoft would heavily enforce that particular clause with legal action or anything. Of course, I could be wrong.

Uhh...little help?

Oh definitely she can power two laptops .

She usually has her laptop plugged in for LAN partys

Oh, so they're calling them "LAN parties" now, eh?


Can't wait to see this one colored, DB.

Lord Night-Blade's flight suit, or at least a close approximiation. There's no PPD symbol available in this program, but if there were it would be on his chest.

Doesn't look like it, although I don't read Portugese so I could be wrong.

I love the prespectives on the last two. We've got some great artists around here, but I don't think they do stuff like that often enough.

Nah, just a case of my brain inserting a letter that's not there. Like how I have to remind myself that it's Croatoa and not Croatia.

I read that as Captain Cornea at first, and didn't get why he wasn't dressed as a giant eyeball or something. On closer inspection of the name, I understand the whole Korea theme, heh.

Nicely rendered, 8baller

Heck, rather than a new pet, I'd commit murder for an upgrade, thematic to the patron, which can be applied to ANY pet type.

However, I'd've been less irked if maybe, say, Corruptors got a pet ... and that was it. (Doms already have a pet.) It's just that everyone except MMs get them, you know?

[/ QUOTE ]
See, that's what I assumed MMs would get when the PPPs were announced. Possibly getting another pet? Meh. Possibly getting another upgrade for your pets? Now we're talking! It wouldn't have even had to do much, maybe just give the pets some sort of damage shield or hit point boost so they'd survive longer.

As to the other ATs getting pets, as I said before corruptors can really get a lot of mileage out of them, dominators less so (although I imagine they're pretty useful for mind/ dominators) and brutes and stalkers virtually no use at all (honestly, I'd be very surprised if any player of these ATs took a pet for any reason other than concept or curiosity). So I can understand why you'd be annoyed that they gave pets to ATs that really really don't need them.

[ QUOTE ]
Everyone gets a pet, except the pet class ...? Huh??

[/ QUOTE ]
This is something I've always found amusing, because from the moment the PPPs were announced just about everyone assumed that MMs would be getting yet another pet. PPPs, like the APPs, were meant to partially fill gaps in the functionality of the ATs. Thus the melee ATs get some ranged attacks and control, the ranged/support ATs get some defense shields and self power/damage buffs, and so on. So how does giving MMs yet another pet fill any hole in the AT? Rather they gave MMs a few tools that are either make them more survivable, through damage reduction/defense, or make it easier for their pets to dispatch mobs, through AoE immobilize or single target holds. Yeah, MMs are a pet class, but why do they need more pets on top of the 6 (or 7 if you're /dark or necro/ or 8 if you're necro/dark) they already get? Really, that's more than enough to get through just about any mission.

As to the other ATs being given access to pets, that's something that makes sense for corruptors, who could use something to buff and keep aggro off them, and to a certain extent dominators. I still think the brutes, and maybe stalkers, would've been better served by something other than a pet.

Nope. Popularly requested feature, but it doesn't exist (not for players anyway).
