I was going to spread that word out as wide as those pictures, but then I remembered that text wraps whereas pictures do not
Try http://www.imageshack.us]imageshack] if you haven't already heard of it. It automatically makes forum thumbnails for you that link to your fullsized images
After I load my images to imageshack, which option should I choose? There are like 7 options and I can never tell which one will actually do what I want it to do.

Once you upload an image to imageshack you should select the "forums thumbnail" option that most closely resembles how these forums would post it manually.
That is, you want one that has the format of:
I'll go check that this instant, but I think that is correct.
Edit: Below is the format taken from the "October Desktops" thread showing the posted styling for a thumbnail.
[URL=http://imgxxx.imageshack.us/my.php?image=xxxxx.jpg]http://imgxxx.imageshack.us/imgxxx/xxxx/xxxxx.jpg[/ IMG][/ URL]
Again, no space between the slash and the img or url, you have to close that but then you should have an attached thumbnail in your post just like [post=1790358]this[/post].
Edit2: Or if you have some image editing software you can either click "save for web" or simply lower the size of the image (resolution size which also lowers file size) and then simply attach it for a result like [post=1790590]this[/post].
Well this is my new setup, never got round to posting my other setup but i thought this was worth it. not quite finished yet. need to get a new monitor and some cable ties and a few other bits.
i know that this isnt a 'computer setup' but its a setup none the less lol. couldnt show you just my computer setup when this is even better. and no im not a raging alcoholic, really.

cheers for the comments, well firstly im in the UK so this may mean nothing to you lol but the dispencers (optics) are from makro www.makro.co.uk. the yard is from the gadget shop as are the shot glasses but the shop has closed down now. you might be able to pick them up online. the zero hero half yard ive been able to do, just, but the one next to it standing upright (whole yard) i am yet to conquer. more of an excuse to drink

Is the point of the yard/half-yard to slam it all at once or simply to drink that much substance? I have seen them before but I can't recall their purpose.
Thanks for the info, I'll be looking around to see what's offered state-side as well as at Makro's there.

Well you certainly have my respect for a large throat then, I know I wasn't made to drink something like that continuously. The amount, fine, but all at once....lets just say I wasn't made that way.

Nice set-up! It's good to see another Live 5 user here. Where'd you get the black production desk/cabinet in the pic? I'm looking for someting similar myself.

these setups are getting out of hand.
how do you like your AKAI 16 controller? I almost bought one of those, but i went with the Trigger Finger instead ... i just got one.
i may exchange this one because one pad seem to be a bit too sensitive and triggers from impacting the pads above and below.can't wait to get my hands on Live 5; is that Reason 3 i see ... i really need to upgrade.

ZOMG! Now that is a setup. What keyboard and application (it's been a long time since I've used anything other than Logic 7 Prohowinson said:
) are you using?
howinson said:
Ok, I have wanted to get into music production for aslong as I can remember. I am a mac fanatic and I really want to be able to start making some hip hop beats. What would be some good things to get me started? Programs, keyboards ect..? How do people that were discovered through their music production know how to work all of the professional equipment so well without going to a Full Sail type of school? (like kanye west)
