I always tried to think of it as "disciplined".... because they only used to beat us with their hardwood or rattan sticks externally. (and mostly "superficially" at that) :cool:
:D
OTOH, I have no idea just where and how they applied their sticks "in your case". :rolleyes:
On another thing.... what format did you use for your avatar?
The limits are 19.5K "or" 50x50.... and that last is what the board is trying to limit me to.
What's the work-around?
Yeah, I got that part, but what about the color depth and the file-type?
JPEG is normally the easiest to use...... of course, no matter what the file-size is in JPEG, it's compressed and expands when viewed, so it isn't "actually" the size that the file lists at........ hmmmm, maybe dat means I need to use some kinda bit-map format?
Thanks... I actually tried something very close to that and even dropped the color depth down to 8-bit.... pretty small... on disk.
The board actually took that 44x55 size?
Now that I'm starting to think it over, I was going to use the same pic I have on TMA.
Which raises the problem of the aspect ratio of the pic itself.... it's that standing kick.
Prolly be too tall and narrow to really do much of anything.
Have to wait to get my other stuff out of storage.
I've got an "interesting" "IV" pic that some might like to see.
This coming Friday will mark my 30th year of abusing myself with all manner of Asian martial methods.
God, im getting old........
Thanks.... but now that I 'm trying to "get real" about it, the aspect ratio is all wrong for the way the avatars are sized. It wouldn't be very good in that square format.
At least TMA seemed to allow for higher definition......
The IV is a B&W 11x14 of yours truly, weighing in at 135, with 2 of my typically over-sized students, "Big Eddie" (the 2nd) and his cousin Pat, weighing in at 285 and 225 respectively. In the photo we're doing an open-air demo at a drive-in theater with the audience surrounding us and Pat is holding a board against my kidneys.
Big Eddie throws a full-power, full body-weight punch (much like the lunging punch we've discussed) into my midsection to break the board.... while I look miffed/annoyed.
Not the greatest trick in the world... just need a decent midsection. :D
(I can still "play" my stomach, including my solar plexus, like a bongo drum)
Not sure just when I'm gonna get all that photo stuff out of storage.....
Maybe a little sooner if anyone is actually interested.....
All I can say is someone takes himself way to seriously.
