Okay... for those of you following the adventures of Spike (see /327/4f/307186/1.html)...

He turned out to be a pretty nice guy, and Honeybear gave him a great makeover. Here's the before and after. The in-between pics are at

http://s384.photobucket.com/albums/oo281/key_mac/spike/?albumview=grid

<snip>

I'm still editing the pics -- there are better ones of each of us. I mean, better ones of me... Honeybear always looks amazing.


Awww, thanks Key :)

I'd like to have done more with him...I wasn't thrilled at all with that AO and that picture just proves it. It looks...erm...less than studly.

And he still needs hair. And a different shape to change his face. But that was the best I had at hand. That skin needs a really good shape to bring out the best of it.

That's awesome! You ladies are great for helping him out. Especially after a forum entrance such as that.

I have full faith that Honey can have him runway-ready in a snap. She's just that good.


*grins*

Thanks Jer!

Amara,

How does it behave without Firefox running at all? Just curious.

Also, you say your cpu is at 100%. What about the hard drive? Is it churning while this is happening?

And in task manager, you can also look at cpu usage as well as memory usage. Take a peek at that tab, and see which process is eating up all the cpu.

That might help find the problem.

My mistake- I did mean CPU- I don't recall mem now exactly- I have not noticed a huge amount of "churning" while this is going on- and with out FF on it still runs at 100%. :(

I am not the best photographer, and I was trying to get all three of us in each shot, which was (in retrospect) not a good idea...

Amara, try using spybot and CCleaner. The are both free downloads. Also I read somewhere that you should use services.msc to disable background programs instead of msconfig.

Don't know services.msc- I will look for; I use to run spybot but figure between TM and Malaware I go tit covered- can't hurt though I suppose. I don't know CCleaner at all- will look into. Thank you.

Well, you know, it would be nice if one of you GUYS showed him around a little... explained how things worked and all that, which is what he was asking about in the first place.

/me laughs

Anyway, he doesn't look like a newbie any more. He looks like an alt.

We could come up with a list of places he needs to see. :p

He needs a bigger head too.

Perhaps we should send him to Pep :p
Actually I was thinking how much like the old Pep he looked . . .

Howdy, spike. Make yourself at home, and don't mind the mess...we're remodelling. Have been for the past 50,000 posts or so.

For your entrance to this thread..a limerick!

A newbie came in name of spike
Asked a question that nobody liked
Folk made fun of this guy
Until Honey came by
Helped him out, now you trolls take a hike!
