it's certainly good for visualisation, esp. contour-wise, as you can't see half as far as you can normally when orienteering and so it takes a little time to master. and you can just keep running and running, no tiredness

and then you crash into a tree...

if you've only got the demo version it gets a bit boring running on the same map all the time, but it still allows you to concentrate on the technical side of things - ideal "armchair" orienteering

Surely armchair orienteering is the ideal.

Or maybe that's just me.

I'll get me coat.

sorry, helps to do the links proper, working now, what do you mean
"And how to u send kits to be made into o kits" ?

just do it yourself, get one of the originals as a base and do your own.

well i run in red cut-offs quite often, what is the thing on your head btw?

has anyone else been followed around by biggins the monkey when racing? if you run into him he sits on you for a few seconds...
well if you get 1500 ranking points (i think) you can actually choose him as your character:

here's some other random screenshots (i was bored this morning):

and here's some of the skins we're talking about:
euoc:

shuoc:

camoflage man !!!

when i get a new HD i'm going to play about with the movies more as each screen capture (30 per second) is 1.5Mb and a bit of a killer...

what is the thing on your head btw?

not sure, maybe some kind of warpaint/bandana?/hairdye kind of thing.

biggins will only catch you when you doing balls... i never see him...

do you like the tigers btw?

any paint package'll do the job but y'll be better with something like photoshop or fireworks

by **rob f** » Thu Apr 01, 2004 6:47 pm

where can i get them from, preferably without paying anything?

by **brooner** » Thu Apr 01, 2004 6:57 pm

i wouldn't know anything about that sort of thing.
but try kazaa, i hear you can get pretty much anything on that...

by **samsonite** » Thu Apr 01, 2004 7:15 pm

fireworks is awful, get photoshop, its the daddy. get a free 30 day demo at adobe.com, or i have also heard the rumours about kazaa

Nails, that ShUOC top is well good. How did you manage to do it? Especially getting the writing and top to fit the skin?
