Thanks.  Still feels a bit odd at times in that it was only a few years ago that I was still having mental and physical health issues that made me very withdrawn, agoraphobic and prone to panic attacks.  Was difficult even just to leave the flat I had back then to go to the local shop.  Now I'm doing my second play since those times.  And I love it.  I know it sounds strange when I'm pretending to be other people, but this is the first thing I've done in years where I feel I'm myself.  Any remaining shyness, nervousness and quietness I have seems to disappear when I'm acting.

Heh, thanks.  Always some nerves in the run up to the show but it'll be fine when it's all happening and anything that goes wrong we'll just get on with it anyways.

My life is strangely upbeat at moment.  Even went on a date last night and we had a great time.  Surreal.

uh.. hi  :crazy:   I just wanted to say for some reason the zoom function on Pixelation and Pixeljoint for the pixel art section and the forums respectively is finally keeping the crispness of the pixels for the first time ever, today.  I wonder why this is so, but I like it  :lol: :lol:

That is all.  Bye  :noob:

Did you switch or update your browser? I use Chrome and I've been waiting... a couple of years for Google to implement the required CSS tags for crisp zoom.
