Quote by ssheryl:


I'm so sorry WebMonk,that must have been hard for you,thank God you haeled.I just don't understand why a person decides to do such a thing to the person he/she claims to love.

you have such a strong heart!!!
Tnx. Sometimes a hopeless romantic requires a strong heart grin. The irony is that it can either make someone become a better person in relationships (caring enough not to break other people's hearts, and appreciating them more than face value), or would make the person a manipulating player, serial flirter, or whatever comes out evil intentions.

truth truly is stranger than fiction.

I have been heart broked once and it was the most painfull experience I ever had,I cried for two long days.I don't even like thinking about it.It felt like someone slicing right through my heart,I've ever dated since then and I'm not looking forward to it.
That was how the 1st time was for me. The second time was more intense, probably cause i thought it would never happen again. I almost lost track of who i was. Thank God for recovery. Well, you know what they say, what can't kill you can only make you stronger

GamingRe: Sony PS3, Nintendo Wii Or Xbox 360? by WebMonk(m): 10:29pm On Feb 07, 2007
@echowords
used to be a nintendog too, till they stole my N64 in school, I still cry over the carton at night.
but right now me and my 360 are having a good time and thats what i would advice any EX nintendog to buy. its to closest thing to
classic gameing. plus we can go back and play old nintendo franchise like perfect dark.
oh, sweet words! Perfect Dark was/IS the only thing that still makes me look at my 64 (Wipes the dust with tears). And they had the nerve to use it to sell thier expansion pack! how rude! angry

but my bro can't wait for ps3. He's settling for 360. guess i'll find which is the real deal

Nintendo sucks, there must be lots of idiots out there if the DS outsold the PSP
Guess that's what they call a sucker sell (pictures a lollipop on many heads)
GamingRe: Sony PS3, Nintendo Wii Or Xbox 360? by WebMonk(m): 9:58pm On Feb 07, 2007
Hailing all Nairalanders for their opinions,

I was a hardcore Nintendo Monk (Until i got baptised in secondary school. My 64 gathers dust in my room as a reminder grin)

I don't know what nintendo's thinking but the fact they haven't eneded up like sega deserves a gold medal (oh, saved by the little children! grin)

Ps 3 will definetly by my bet. So many mature games on it you won't find on Nin's wii (Devil May Cry, Prince of Persia, Greek god of war, etc ), and i got tired of waiting for Link in Zelda to grow (never touched a gamecube)

Sony just knows how to do it. Ps2 had probs initially, remember?

Oh, stumbled on something rather interesting. the things people will do for a wii!

ProgrammingA Programmer's Blog: A Must Read by WebMonk(op): 9:35am On Feb 07, 2007

I've benefited personally from his perspectives on software, software design, the business of software, software management (You know, the way of doing things that save you 1000 lines of code?). here's the link:

RomanceRe: things we do for love by WebMonk(m): 5:33pm On Feb 05, 2007
it was back in the days when i was in the secondary school. there was this girl i was trying to woo. so one day, the agricultural science teacher told us to get bamboo stems to support yam tendrils in the school farm. this girl then asked for my assistance. i saw this as a chance to play my cards on getting her. i went into the nearest bush and cut 2 heavy bamboo stems. dragging them through the thick maze of undergrowth was one story; the itch the bamboo caused me was another. not to talk of the blazing sun of the dry season that day.
guess what the cow of a girl said when i finally presented her bamboo to her? she just pouted her dirty mouth, let out a long heart rending hiss and calling my name , she said 'you are so lazy o. so of all the bamboo in the bush, na this toothpick you see bring?'
i felt like committing murder that day!
lmao!lmao!Dvampire, i feel your pain.

i once hired a collegue of mine to draw a larger than A3 size wall potrait of the object of my then ill-fated infatuation (was a killer chick though. alas) somehow the picture "didn't" come out exactly the way i wanted it. Burned a f**king hole in my wallet. all she did was send a one bloody text saying "thanks". wtf? glad i learnt my lesson early though grin

what happened to the teddy bear? i still see hot chicks with a life size teddy bear (amazes me how they can go gaga over it.). Anyway it's off the list

best bet i've heard? definitely the variety hamper pack. I'll probably add mine with a treasure hunt (not 4 everyone though, but men it packs a punch if you get it right)

i think i can relax now. thanks for the info nairalanders!

-Sexy - Can someone be ugly and sexy at the same time? grin
-Faithful - keeps the sexy aspect in check
-Good at cooking - heh, Rome wasn't built on empty stomachs

Weird combination? thought so my self.

I can't help but think that the list is devilisly designed. tricky, nice
TV/MoviesRe: Bleach Mania (Anime) by WebMonk(m): 12:38pm On Jan 30, 2007
i don't blame your sister, CU has become the home of all things anime and manga thanks to a certain 400l cbs student. you should have seen when naruto hit us here 2 years ago. it was like a disease, people stopped coming to class, and those that went started running aroud with their hands flying behind their backs, shouting kage bunshin and the likes.
lol. I testify! True! My bro's in CU too. He almost swore he would be wearing gas masks to classes, like it was in the air. It's addictive, if it's your thing though. I've been addicted a dozen times over, only i can't wait a fricking week for one episode anime.

By the way, does anybody know where i can get the latest manga on bleach. i stopped at episode 258 and it's been like forever since.

what's your fave episode so far? lemme know your thoughts

saluting all bleach fans! (exits with shunpo, "flash step"wink

nice concept behind your photo. Just inverted it in photo shop to see the real thing. grin

Anybody finished FF12 yet? Or better yet, how many espers (gurdian forces in ff8) do you command?

There it is. The truth, you might not like Haratio Cain (Not sure spelling) but you have to admit that kind of maturity/calmness is only attained by going a lot of mistakes (just that they don't show them tongue). Remeber his part time nemesis, the serial killer that killed couples and left the children. He messed up with DA (District Attorney)


Any way, i love them all. the reall credit goes to Jerry Bruikhiemer (Directior)

All well said and true. But i think the most painful aspect that when you see your ex with somebody else and you wonder "how could she get over you that fast?". Like "was it even there?" (depends on you sha)

@ my2cents, thanks for the reply.

as for the major flash file, true, not much could be done concerning optimization. Perhaps i'll replace some of the slides i used. I just tried the illustration section. worked well here. could you give me more info? (flash version, browser you were using when the bug occured, etc)

Thanks a lot for the feedback

And i thought i was alone. FF8? the best so far, followed by FF7, although i won't conclude as i'm currently playing FF12, and, MY GOD! i recommend it to every FF fan. The Dialogue/cinematics is Oscar standard (compared to FF8), humor, wit, and of course, the main villian is some form of light-voice inhumane darth vader. (from here onward - - spoiler alert)
GamingRe: The Best Playstation Game Ever Played by WebMonk(m): 12:16pm On Dec 19, 2006
Devil May Cry? Which one? Favorite is DMC3. Followed by the prince of persia trilogy (sands of time, warroir within and the two thrones). And to think the special edition of DMC3 features his brother vergil as a playable character! it doesn't get better than that. (Nobody should shoot me if i haven't finished god of War. some idiot broke it when i was halfway cry)

WebmastersRe: Web Design: Why Not Photoshop? by WebMonk(op): 10:14am On Nov 18, 2006
i guess there really isn't much to say to it, is there? Prodgalson nailed it.
As for gleyo, the isssue was between fireworks and photoshop, illustrator is good, but i didn't recall emphasizing on it


And it's nice to see major people posting on the topic too.

Thnaks to all

PS: Why was the post relocated? And in another name?
WebmastersRe: Web Design: Why Not Photoshop? by WebMonk(op): 1:09pm On Nov 15, 2006
Nothing to get too carried away about. I'm not saying that PS is bad, I'm just saying i don't see many people use it , let alone well. And that photoshop is more flexible (design wise) than fireworks. The follwing should suffice though:

*There aren't much tutorials for Fireworks than Photoshop, although fireworks beats photoshop when it comes to integrated workflow (since almost everybody uses dreamweaver)

*besides, you can't use firworks to create Non-regular interfaces like photoshop

*Fireworks is easier to use (by far), and pretty good for making buttons, interface, and
sometimes layouts. But its not good for making abstracts and effects like the things most people make in photoshop

*photoshop is way more powerful in terms of bitmap images etc. but fireworks is the one of the best vector web based graphics program on the market today.

but don't take my word for it

As my2cents said, most of the people he's worked with since his days use photoshop, and even though he's uses the two, he isn't exactly going to start switching boats. There are loyalists on both sides, and i don't mind a mini war of some sort

We live in a world where people expect more (graphically speaking) and at the same time fast service. i can look at a site and tell outright whether they used fireworks or they used
photoshop before exporting to fireworks. they go together somehow, i just love photoshop more grin

But it was from your responses that i did a little diggin, and realised that this sort of
photoshop vs fireworks arguement is a very hot issue indeed. I think it wouldn't be a bad thing if i a brought a Photoshop vs Fireworks war, i'll just get credit for it. Everybody wins grin

And, concerning smartsoft creating a similar layout in Fireworks, lets see it. Mine barly took an hour or two, and to top it, i posted it free in this forum. I'm not bragging
