Pickem's Discussion Thread

[jedburks]

I pulled this from the pick'em thread so I wouldn't derail it.


What the fuck is wrong with people on this board. HP52 I'm gonna dump on you because you are the current weasel who didn't honor their bet
But I think this is the third person this season who did not post their new avi until at least half way through the week following their loss.

You can make all the excuses in the world but in the world I live in if you don't honor a bet you're a fucking weasel. Why even get in the fucking game? You know the rules and the risks. If it costs too much don't bet!!

I will defend him and say that he at least acknowledged it and is trying. He sent me a PM saying the avi would load or work for some reason an was looking for help. I told him to contact Red Alert because he posted the pic and I am retarded. As long as he keeps it up for at least a week then I am good with it.

He is at least trying unlike others in the past.

 

[Red_Alert]

He PM'd me asking for help, but didn't specify "what kind" of help.

He didn't say it wouldn't load or anything. All he said was "Can you help me?"

I replied "I'll try" and haven't heard back.

I'm on my phone now, so I can't make the pic smaller. It's formatted jpeg so that can't be the issue.

I cut the size down a bit, but all I can figure is it's still a tad big. If that's not the issue than it's an HP52 issue. aka Operator Error.

 

[Red_Alert]

Somebody who's on a PC (who knows wtf they're doing) test it and see if they can make it their own avy momentarily. I don't remember if I tested that.

If it works for someone else, then it's an HP52 operator error.

you want me to test jed's picture of his sister/mom/cousin/daughter as my avatar? I will give it a go

Give it a try momentarily and see if it works.

 

[HuskerinBig10]

[Red_Alert]

I see it.,

Did it work fine the first time?

 

[HuskerinBig10]

I resized the jpeg to be 33K

height 2.33 inches
width 1.75 inches

I knew the jpg had to be small so I just resized it and changed it. No Problemo shoving it through pipes to sportshoopla

HP's a doofus?

 

[HuskerinBig10]

nope, that would be the one dee one zero tee error.

OK. So it was still too big.

Repost the modified pic back in that thread and PM it to him as well, if you would.

I am awaiting my internet fix it person to appear, as usual, they are on their time.

I have even had two annoying calls from them. I wonder if I was supposed to call them back?

 

[HuskerinBig10]

luckily my wife told me how to check voicemail.

Oh fudgecicle. The tech is supposed to be here from 10 AM to noon, I thought it was 8 AM to 10 AM.

Sometimes, it just turns out to be a bad day.

 

[Red_Alert]

nope, that would be the one dee one zero tee error.

In the military we called it an "I D Ten Tee" error.

 

[Red_Alert]

You can change your avy back to the Wheaties box whenever.

 

[HuskerinBig10]

we will further test HP52s skills.

Hp52, please CLICK ON MY AVATAR picture, which is your avatar picture, to download it to your machine.

to do that,

right click the image.
then select save image as
make sure you remember where it went. ie, the path and the name you called it
then upload the image to the SportsHoopla

 

[HuskerinBig10]

In theory, I PMd HuskerPower52 the avatar picture. Now it is up to him.

I will leave the picture of my girlfriend up for today just so he knows it works. That way, no excuses.

I just won't log back in until tomorrow.

Why would he do that?

That chick is HOT!!!!

 

[Red_Alert]

HP52 got his avy changed.

 

[Red_Alert]
