  1. Good idea about the airbrushing, ive contacted a local bike pimper. I just get the feeling hes gonna charge big bucks?
  2. Ok, i really want to attempt to put this image on my board, but ive got no idea how. Has anyone tried ink jet printing onto transparent stuffs, and the glueing? Any other ideas? Ive been thinking about doing summut with my board, and this graphic is strangly appropriate Ideas welcome, and thanks in advance! Matt http://www.4freeimagehost.com/uploads/adeed6d4e61a.jpg
  3. I had issues with my wireless router as well. Now it looks like you have the DNS issues resolved, but you are now suffering from an intermittent wireless connection. Is the wireless a laptop? Have you tried it right next to the router? Whats the wireless signal strength like? If you try ping -t www.google.com do you get any timeouts? I get responses between 50ms to 100ms. I had low signal strength downstairs, and intermitted response times. I managed to resolve this by replacing the routers arial with a more powerfull one. I think the router came with a 5db arial, now has a 15db one. The signal strength is much better now, and works out to the garden. I can also play Dawn of War online in the garden with it , but quake 3 suxors over wireless its to ping dependant. Good luck! Matt
  4. It will work either way: 1) The router can assign the network configuration using DHCP. 2) You can manually configure it on the Network Card. I've had many issues with routers and DNS, so now i just set all the configuration maunally. I'm intruged why you think it wont work though?
  5. omg, is that still around? I remember using the NAG library at uni using fortran 77 on a pc, makes me feel dirty just thinking about it Dont have the libraries now though im afraid. What is the function, some nasty non linear equations shinanigens? Is it not possibel to download the libraries? Good luck! Matt
  6. Look into my eyes, look into my easy, not around my eyes, look into my eyes. Now give me your 10m!
  7. the BT dns servers i use are: 194.73.73.94 194.72.6.57 to configure this you will need to uncheck Obtain ip automaticallt set the ip address 192.168.0.something subnet mask 255.255.255.0 defaul gateway 192.168.0.1 dns servers as above The only other thing to be aware of. If this is your first router you may have issues with certain apps like file sharing or online games, you may need to setup Port Forwarding. http://www.portforward.com Good luck. Matt
  8. I really hope someone is there in 15 years time to remind you that you actually said that Trust me, it isnt all its cracked up to be. Oh to be 16 again, now i would pay a few kites for that! Yes! Juggling is a fantastic hobby, will keep you entertained for years. Startoff with 3 balls, then move to 3 clubs, then start club passing its a fantastic feeling. Possibly get side tracked with a diablo or devil stick along the way. Possibly even have a crack at unicycle, who knows?
  9. Sounds like a DNS issue to me. Can you resolve the IP for google by typing nslookup www.google.com into a command prompt? I suspect not. Are you using the router as a DHCP server? Is the PC's network card setup to dynamicaly assign IP Address, Default Gateway and DNS Servers? If you can find the DNS server addresses for you ISP, then you can configure them directly onto the network card. What ISP are you using, as i have the BT dns server ip addresses somewhere. Hope this helps! Matt
  10. Dre can do no wrong, wash your mouth out with soap.
  11. cant resist, this one stills cracks me up http://www.kontraband.com/show/show.asp?ID=1723&rtn=main-topten "your bakery products are weak old man!" lol
  12. The good old days, eh? Used to love pe and nwa. I've just had a bit rap rivival, and descovered: 50 Cents first album is good, and The Games first aint bad. Then you have the new Kyne West album and the album Be by Common, if you like it a little less gansta. keep it real brothers, peace
  13. Why not just go throught the oem recovery procedure?
  14. sabre frenzy shootout! i love it, its bloody fantastic
  15. Tricky one. Go for the 10m now as the one kite solution?, or go 7m for autumn and save up for the 12m for next summer?. (amend +3m for equivilant pillow kite sizes )
  16. So whats the crack with the frenzy 06?
  17. love the board kick, very nice
  18. Meet up with Spooky if you can, its invaluable having someone who knows the crack watching you fly and giving you tips. In my experience the frenzy just takes practise, it took me a good while to get my head around my first 03 9.5 frenzy, stick with it and you wont regret it. A lot of the stuff you learn will be transfereable to other depowerable kites anyway.
  19. great fun, good old onion
  20. Your more than welcome to have a go on my 7m frenzy 05 if you think a fly will help you make your mind up. (horsepath or woodstock, somewhere without ditches preferably :] ).
  21. Isnt it interesting that the kiting industry is going through the same issues that other industries (porn, retail, games, etc) went through about 5 years ago? You may well make some money if people click ok your google sponsored links, and fair play to you if you do, you must be providing a service people want or they wouldnt be visiting you.
  22. I cant admit to have a bullet or Dartmoor exprience, but i have had blade + cow sh!t + thistles issues on port meadow in Oxford. Never went back again, it took me 3 washes to get rid of the cow debris, and its slimey im telling you, and a few hours with tweasers for the thorns. Thank god i found a sports ground, rugby posts are nothing in comparison.
  23. Your more than welcome to have a go on mine as well, pm me if your going up to horsepath next week.
  24. http://www.ggl.com/news.php?NewsId=1002 Interesting rant by Carmac of www.esreality.com, got me thinking about what you competative kiters think about this as there are obvious parallels. Personaly i cant make up my mind, female only competitions are great for encourage more women to join the sport, but you cant deny it can end up being unfair on the men. The one difference is that eSports removes the general physical strength advantage that men have in most other sports, like kiting. Matt
  25. lets be honest, it blows goats compared to marmalade, disgusting
