That's great. My first thought was the only people who could possibly get away with these were the early 80's Astros.

Here is my final creation.

It looks a lot like my favorite pair from back in the day. If it sucks, please tell me now so I can cancel before tomorrow.

Just so we're clear...

It's various shades of gray, right? I think it looks good.

I think there's some blueishness in there, but I'm not good with colors all the time
you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

White-Gray-Black

Edit- I mean it's so simple to do something like that as opposed to the rainbow ones. I just don't get it.

why does every cooking show have to have the chef take a taste of his own food and make a satisfied comment about how good it is?

Looks pretty cool, but I would add just a bit of color somewhere--maybe the swoosh.

I think maybe the swoosh would have worked with white but I don't think there is any reason to add more color. This same shoe is probably available with a pink and orange stripe and that's why I hate their designs. Maybe their goal is to put the ugliest shoes possible out there and if people actually buy them, great. If you want a normal looking shoe you have to find some schmuck to customize their own for $160.

I fell into the trap. Great marketing strategy.

I've fallen for it, too. A couple of times. I like yours... I designed a 97 with mostly black and silver (and a hint of red) but didn't pull the trigger on the order.

I design shoes on there all the time, just as a timewaster. Never bought a pair though. One of these days maybe.

I have a 5:00 appointment to get the biggest of the 4 tats that I am getting. I told my wife that I might as well get my nipple and chin pierced while I was there and then signed off of IM real quick. She just left me the most epic of epic voicemails. It went from rational, to agitated, to full blown rage (including tears) in less than 90 seconds.

Now I feel terrible even after I called her back to apologize and tell her that I was just kidding. :(

My cousin and her husband got married in Jamaica like a month ago. Now they are having a reception on Friday night.

Can't we just stop with the charade, already? They want us to give them money in exchange for stuffed shells, roast beef, and the chicken dance. I get it. I would much rather just send them a check and not have to worry about going to the cleaners for my sports coat and dress shirt and my wife buying a new dress and all of that BS. Out of over 50-60 second cousins this is like one of maybe 5 that I feel obligated to go. But still. I hate it.

I'm wayyyyyyyyy late on this but I think I finally figured out how to fix the BSOD killer with Windows. I was getting the "disk error press ctrl+alt+del to restart" loop. I couldn't even get into the BIOS because the admin had set a password (it was her old work laptop and I didn't want to take it apart to remove the battery to reset it) and I had not backed up a lot of files that I needed. I got REALLY pissed off and threw it across the room, plugged it back in an hour, and it booted up a little slow but otherwise fine. Needless to say I am backing up everything that I need right now.

Whoever has access to check IP addresses, can you see that I had two different IP's between 3:45 and 4:45?

My laptop situation is a pain in the ass. My main one is a Gateway M520 that died a while ago. I did everything I could to fix it but I eventually came to the conclusion that it needed a new system board and it has been a long time since I took a laptop apart. I called Gateway and they wanted close to $400 to fix it so I bought a used one on ebay for like $225 and just swapped hard drives and added my RAM. Now it works like a charm except I need to replace the hinges because you have to play with the screen to keep it upright (which is just annoying enough for me to not use it). Most of my important files are on that and it's definitely the best of the 3. Then I have the aforementioned Thinkpad T42 that I've been using for months since the Gateway died. Finally I have an HP/Compaq one from my old job that they let me keep. My wife has the same one now for work and I gave her all of the ram that I had added so now it is way too slow but it still has a lot of files that I should transfer. You would think that someone with as much free time as me would do this in a matter of hours. Yet it's been months and nothing. I'm really lazy.

MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE

Took me a while to remember when I first saw it as well. Then I spent an hour last night reading up on every facet of the HeMan universe.
