After being at all these parades and strolling the streets of New Orleans I have a bone to pick with some stupid people. This is not a camera. It's a phone jackass. Don't be holding it up in pitch black and expect it to take some award winning photo of a float coming down the street. This, while being a point and shoot, is in fact a camera that takes decent pictures that can be printed and come out not looking like ass. I am not sure how many of the pictures I took of the parades came out with some asshat's hand in the picture holding up their god damned phones but I am sure there are several. I saw this too on bourbon street alot. Now keep in mind I will not print even half of the shots that I take, but at least I have the option of printing them and they will come out like pictures taken on film. All this frustration over me not getting a few booby pictures on bourbon street because of over zealous dipshits with pricey phones. Bring back phones that are just that, phones. Now scroll down and see the pictures I took on my crappy camera phone and posted directly. HA! I'm an ass for doing something similar to what I am complaining about.
Onto the other thing... myspace... scourge of the internet. Okay. Umm... how to say this gently.... Your page is ugly. Dear God please just remove your great creation(abortion) of a style sheet and just let it be blue and white. Bright flashing backgrounds, music and video autoplaying, wasting my bandwidth with me having to load that garbage. If myspace wants to do the web community a service and allow people to add in style info at least let them use IDs to fully take control of the space. Let me force that comment box to X pixels wide so no more gaudy images can get added and make my scroll bars extend off into infinity. Had someone show me their page a few weeks ago, they were so proud that it showed off that persons originality and spirit. The background was a bright vivid image and the tables had all be set to transparent with black text. You couldn't read a damned thing on the page. Come on... 90% of good webdesign is to make it easy for your target audience to get your message / ad / etc. That is just retarded.
Enough bitching from me. Gonna head out and enjoy the rest of Mardi Gras. Expect pictures soon.
