I Have Returned! (Hopefully...)
Okay, long time no see. I hope you are all doing well. I'm afraid not that much is happening, worthy to mention in my life. Hopefully, that will change, because I have no plans on leaving MyOtaku. However, don't say welcome back quite yet, because the future is never certain on whether or not I'll be updating a lot after this post. I hope I haven't been removed from any anyone's Friends List or something like that.

Well I'm still working on modifying my game as usual. Trying new things and stuff like that. If I were to ever start a games programming course, I'm sure I'll do VERY well in it! lol. ^_^

Want an example of what I did? I changed a "Skin" on one of the Heroes in the "Battle for Middle Earth 2". I thought Haldir (The one who lead the Elves during the Battle of Helm's Deep) had an appalling skin, so I changed it. He's a screenshot of how he looked before I changed him.

I apologize for the horrible green colour. It's the "Team Colour", so if I turn that off, it'll look better. Well Haldir is to the left of that shot. Pretty bad looking, huh? The guy to the right would be Thranduil, people who read the book would know him as Legolas's Dad.

Now for the new skin I found in the data files that the game designers never used.

Here's one where I turned the team colours off. ^_^

He looks better, doesn't he? I was proud of myself when I changed it. Normally, it takes a program that costs hundreds of dollars to change a skin. But I fooled the computer into thinking the new skin is the old one. By giving the new skin the exact same name as the old one. Haha. I wonder why the game designers never used it?

Well I don't know if my Brother knows this, but "Stargate SG-1" is getting cancelled. I must say that I wasn't happy hearing about this at all... I'm sure Michael wouldn't either. I wonder why it's getting canceled though? The show was going so well! 215 Episodes are made so far.

I'm, afraid I haven't managed to get back to Naruto yet. Me and CuteKilala have only seen up to episode 2 so far. I really hated the quality of the episodes I was downloading, so I'm waiting for better quality ones to appear before I download them again.

I saw something very funny yesterday, no wait, two things! It was another day of feeding the ducks and swans. While Mum was taking bread out of the bag to give to the swans, a really big one manage to sneak up on her and it's head was a couple of inches away from her hands, which her a big fright. It also startled the swans and it hissed at her. lol. ^_^

The next thing that happened was that while the swan had a LOT of bread still in it's mouth, a dog came along and sniffed around the swans. While this would make a swan hiss, it couldn't because of all the bread in it's mouth. lol. So it was shaking it's head around like crazy, trying to force out a hiss. It eventually managed to do so, while spitting bread crumbs at the dog at the same time. The dog never reacted. It just turned around to us, looking quite happy. lol. ^_^

I better visit you guys now. Hopefully, the error that's been kicking me and CuteKilala off of MyOtaku is gone. I haven't been able to visit people on my shot of the computer. Me and CuteKilala are very sorry about it. I hope this works. Fingers crossed!
