    Spyro the pyro creating around the clock
    News 7 hired him to protect their little flock
    The Zombie hoard did appear
    That was nothing for he without fear
    It took a bit and very much wit
    Some sweat and tears even some grit
    News 7 is clear of the living dead
    Ready for all the news that is ahead
    And all we get is Spyro on his on his butt
    With his mouth for once humbly shut

    ROFLMAO !! I would totally make this poem my latest banner if It would fit with all my links LOL! Love it, and says it all!

    Updates soon. I working on boot straps atm... but sidetracked with food... num num num. News7 is behind and they failed to deliver on their back to back episode... Guess they all went to bed before Daz announced the latest poll. Spyro had an appointment with his therapist today, so he couldn't work overtime last night. But the News7 Cooperate board will make him work a double shift tonight.

    News seven is joining Terry on a special 'on the scene' segment. Cant wait :cheese:

    Hmmm... Let my try. Jedd the Ex-Jock, Spyro the wiz kid, Gabi Street news and party type, Angelina supermodel Face, and off to the side Terry the really news person going, "How did I get stuck working with this bunch?"

    For Terry's sake, I really hope you're not a "LOST" fan...


    What hair did you use on Jedd?

    No lol I was inspired by Family guys http://familyguy.wikia.com/wiki/Tricia_Takanawa 'Tricia Takanawa' LOL I had no Idea they were basing their design on a person haha!

    Jedd used http://www.runtimedna.com/DesirHair.html (Very realistic :) )

    Thanks, I've often seen that hair in renders, but never knew what it was (I don't shop at RDNA too often).

    Jedd - (Inspired by both Triple H and Danny Trejo) The hair choice and HHH's nose really made him look far closer to Tripple H... He is my first attempt at bringing a character I designed years ago to 3D) He's definately my depiction of Freak. Maybe an Ex-con, A high profile bodyguard, wrestler, Mafia perhaps? The character I designed was originally intended to be an Antagonist, like a top henchman for the big bad boss. Jedd will be the sports presenter.

    Spyro - Well he's my avatar, so alot of him is me... That said, his character in this news project is rather different to what he really is. But his childish and comedic characteristics is what they share. Spyro is the mainstream news presenter.

    Gabi - HAHA! She was fun to make. Kind of a punk/techno/non-stop party chick. She's gonna be real fun to work with. I'm making her background in Pro middle-weight boxing, maybe a martial artist. She's the co-sports presenter.

    Angelina - lol I deliberately made her the classic model type... All sexy, no brains lol. She's the co-mainstream

    Terry - Yeah, you summed her up good. A serious on the scene reporter. She has no sense of humor, but will speak humorously (If that makes sense.) The only serious News7 cast member. :-P

    You have got to love a person that never thinks small. That's going to be one nice set.

    Prob not... Its rather tailored for news7. That said though... I'll see how well it converts to PP2, perhaps I'll email it to you... The file size as of yet is unknown.

The file size as of yet is unknown.Dude, I'm no slouch at Mat swapping, but Really if you did the News 7 thing for you and just a standard texture set for a release it would be a great News room for any user. I fully understand the News 7 thing should stay yours and only yours.

    Perhaps :) I need to see how well it works and the size of the PP2.

    Which build? Some builds of DS4.5 had problems with area lights. The current one (4.5.1.6) does not have this problem, as far as I know.
