I just have the Sonics ones that came with the game if that helps....I can look tomorrow and let you know....

I'll play around with graphics settings and see what I can do....

nice.
cause i am watching the cba game 3 finals and just had a great idea and wanted to run it by you.
remember cocobee's nba live 2004 dyansty? if you were there. he had some slick retro jerseys like some random old cba or whatever jerseys. just thought of something like that.
also you are getting towards the olympics.. see what i am getting at?
:wink:

Dweaver now realises that he shouldn't have had that souvlaki before the game

Hey, I can't help it, it's a ritual we Greeks have before games:
Approximately 1 hour before tipoff we consume one souvlaki( extra onions), a plate of bean soup and a bottle of ouzo. Once we hit the court, the mere odor of our sweat is enough to bring opponents down on their knees... :lol:

plus the Suns are perennially weak upfront, so you were a good fit for them....

Hehe, looks like me and the perrenially rotund Charles Barkley are having a blast gorging on those souvlakia under the scorching Arizona sun. Smells of homeland, I tell you...

i liked the offseason info and the new away uniform, good job

by **Fresh8** on Wed Apr 20, 2005 7:45 am

7-0... I'm sure it isnt me.. its all a team effort...

I mean we got a decent team with Howard, Stevie, Cat as our main three... Grant Hill and Jameer

yep, it's amazing what a few wins can do to bring a team together....

yeah, I noticed that Sir Charles had packed on a few pounds and added an extra layer to the mound, now I know why.... :eh:

I haven't actually checked in on cocobee's 2004 dynasty as wasn't around....send me a pm and fill me in and when I get the chance I'll check out his dynasty to see what you are getting at....although don't want to rip on of cocobee's ideas so we'll see....

by **Micchy_boy** on Wed Apr 20, 2005 2:32 pm

nice debut number for me (Y)

... look like i steal Strickland minutes...

Sorry i'm not around for a few days... so though it late
Good luck in your 3rd season...

by **The X** on Wed Apr 20, 2005 9:01 pm

that's cool....yep, you seem to have beaten out Strickland in the rotation for now....let's see if you can continue your solid play....

as for season, an interesting start to it....poor start, but starting to turn it around a little, although had some heartbreakers....Watson is actually one my most consistent players at the moment and came up big in my last game when I incorporated a small ball lineup of Van Exel (6'1"), Arenas (6'3") and Watson (6'2" SF) :shock:

and it worked :shock:

although dweaver, Van Exel is still a backup, but does get quite a few minutes together with Arenas in a small-ball lineup....Korver and Walton have been non-factors, and a trade could be on the cards....all-in-all, it should be an interesting 06-07 season for all involved....

by **Jing** on Wed Apr 20, 2005 9:48 pm

its all gone, the thread, or the images at least. but maybe i'll just stick to the normal retros

man... ur comments are always the best, same goes with the comments on ur pctures, i love it

by **The X** on Thu Apr 21, 2005 12:01 am

cheers....glad all those years of sarcasm and dry humour are paying off :wink:

and don't worry, you'll be the butt of the comments once you are drafted next season :mrgreen:

jxuusa or anyone else, let me know what you think of the new graphical settings....I am now using the detail settings I gave to Micchy_boy, who gave to sBHzMafia, etc....seems to be a little more detail on faces but everything else loses a little detail, but is good for pics nonetheless....

The only NLSC lefty nails his first shot of the game. Is Micchy_boy going to look at making a move similar to Lew Alcindor from Bucks to Lakers in the future?!? I guess only time will tell. In the meantime, you will be able to check out November recap to see how he fared against the 'Cats.

November has a lot of games in it this seasons so is taking a little while, but I'll probably do the monthly recap over the weekend inbetween pub stops.

wow impressive numbers for my debut

I knew that i will be ok with "MY MAN" Kobe :twisted:

About the graphics settings those are what I use , they are great for pics (Y)

by **The X** on Thu Apr 21, 2005 7:41 am

yep, you had a great debut....don't expect to keep that amazing pace going though....either way, you're getting big minutes in LA as you are the only decent PG on their roster....and besides, I guess your job is just to walk the ball up the floor, pass it to Kobe and let him do the rest :lol:

by **Jing** on Thu Apr 21, 2005 7:45 am

whoa. micchy is a lefty? i never knew that. too bad the game can't make you switch hands around you know? shoot with either hand in a certain situation, cause i'm amidexterious..
as for the screen, for some reason i saw no difference

by **The X** on Thu Apr 21, 2005 7:50 am

ahh well about that screen....

as for ambidextrous, I've noticed in some situations like shot adjustments, players shoot with their off-hands....I recall seeing Arenas doing it in the last game....

by **futzy99** on Thu Apr 21, 2005 8:06 am

Hey, man, great dynasty! I made a jersey for my dynasty, and thought you might like it! [Click]

Enjoy!

sounds good :lol:

but i don't have to be it always xD

by **The X** on Thu Apr 21, 2005 10:34 am

since a few of you seem interested in the jerseys I have put in, here goes the 4 jerseys that my team will wear for this season and until I find other ones....

In Order (from left to right): Home, Away, Sunday/Alternative, Retro

on the graphical settings, they don't seem to be any better than ones before, so maybe I'll tweak around with it more....or maybe it's just how I'm sizing the pics....I just use MSPaint to stretch/skew them down to 35% of their original size....maybe I'm losing lots of quality there....would I get better quality by resizing down with abode photoshop?!? seraph seems to have great small pics, maybe you can help :wink:

I'm using photoshop, i usually cut the original pic, then resize it, and saved it as JPG in max quality

by **The X** on Thu Apr 21, 2005 10:44 am

cool....I'll give that a shot.... :chug:

by **The X** on Thu Apr 21, 2005 10:57 am

maybe I should get around to d/loading the guru's shoe patches....any quick way of shortcutting it for a 56-ker?!? :wink:

okay people, check out 2 pics below and tell me what you think of pic quality now after following seraph's guide (12/10 quality on photoshop)....

Okafor goes in for dunk against Kings
Arenas shooting a trey

I'm finished November so I'll probably post the recap for the month later....
