toadz

Oh yeah, it's 'rasslin time for toadz! My self and a few buddies are off to see a local show who have a few big stars from over the pond appearing here for the weekend and I can't wait! It will be my first time watch wrestling in the skin so it should be interesting to see it up close and personal...especialy Lita! Mwahahahaha. I'll try and get a few snaps while I am there but I don't even know how close we will be to the ring to get good shots. Can't wait to see the Steiner Brothers! Woot!

The card is here www.prestoncitywrestling.com/e…

Not been about quite as much recently, so once I am back tonight I'll be trying to get caught up with everything here on dA. Have a great weekend folks, and enjoy the weather while it lasts!

P-C-Dub! P-C-Dub!

If you are like me and not made the jump to Genesis because you love your old Gen 4 characters and don't want to spend then money on GenX, you might be interested to take a look at this post over on the DAZ forums forumarchive.daz3d.com/viewtop… I've not tried the process myself yet, but I'll be giving it a go over the weekend to see if I can get Tasha over to Genesis. Fingers crossed it will work and there will finaly be away to get your old favs into Genesis without having to pay for an add on.

Have a great weekend!

*edit* I've done an update and sent this one to watchers again as the lovely Kerya-Alexis droped some more handy dandy links, one for converting characters in DS4.5 www.daz3d.com/forums/viewthrea… and also a shareCG link for converting poses to Genesis www.sharecg.com/v/60135/

Thanks Kerya-Alexis, you rock!

If you have never heard of a Hang, or Hang Drum as some call them, you seriously need to check this video out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBiVq2… I've seen quite a few videos of people playing them, Dante Belucci was always popping up on your tube for the last couple of years, but I stumbled upon this guy and was blown away. Must have been awesome to hear the acoustics of it being played in an underpass! Awesomeness!

That's right, you are all horrible and smelly people who constantly make me smile and feel glad to be back amongst the friends I've made on dA. I have to say you all smell because if I was too nice your heads might all explode from ego inflation after all the great brithday treats and wishes that I got yesterday! The biggest and most smelliest offenders will now be listed.

I could smell ianzthingz ianzthingz.deviantart.com/ a mile away, even before he made a donation to DCC's super group fund and gave me a slice of cake!
Then there was the not quite so smelly(she still smells abit though) ClaireDawkins clairedawkins.deviantart.com/ who also helped fatten me up with another slice of cake! Evil!
Ofcourse, the pong of the sackman SimonJM simonjm.deviantart.com/ was smelt when he droped me a birthday gift simonjm.deviantart.com/#/art/N… which is pretty much how I feel today with a stinking hang over, hahahaha.
Probably the least smelly was judoartist judoartist.deviantart.com/ who droped me a little message with 3 lovely ladies who I know rather well judoartist.deviantart.com/#/ar…
Then there was the most evil and smelly person I know TLCDigitalArt tlcdigitalart.deviantart.com/ who lavished me with both cake and a dA subscription!
Then we have the scent of an odour that I am not familiar with, as someone sent me an anonymous $30 GC on Renderosity for which I am very greatfull for and want to say thank you here, to that person. I'll be spending it all on the Perfect V4 fixes by Meipe & Xameva as they will be something I can use with every render, and I've been fawning over them for quite some time!

Thank you to everyone who left me birthday wishes on my profile page, I smelt you all from miles away!

I feel rough as hell today, but thats what Birthday Boxing Day is all about, so once my brain feels like it's not dribbling out of my ears I'll get round to catching up with messages and images on dA. Until then, I think a nice little lie down and some chilling tunes will do the job, probably this on repeat. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5XfAY… Mmm, chilling!

Thanks again for all the birthday wishes and gifts, you people really are some fancy pants nice folks that I am honoured to call my friends! I love you all, even though you smell, but it we have to love each others good points and bad points as a wise friend once said to me when she managed to send me an email that had text in it, instead of the blank ones she normaly sends me. That last bit sounds rather random, but it's actualy true!

I love you all!

OK, I finaly installed DS4.5 today to get caught up with the rest of the world and to take advantage of Luxus as it wouldn't work with the older version of Studio that I had. I am setting up a character from scratch and I'm trying to start work on my skin shader, but it would appear that USS is nowhere to be found. Does anyone know what the floof is going on? I can't find it in any of the DAZ presets or libraries, even when I use the search function. I have all my old content, but no USS, so I might as well have nothing at all *dramatic*. Any help is much appreciated!
