Sad but true, I stopped modelling, though first you can´t go very far with Google Sketchup and second it would take me too long to learn how Blender works, due to lack of time and patience. I also couldn´t import those models Krytos sent me to compare the sizes, because they aren´t supported by that program. So I leave it to those guys who are good in modelling. If you are interested in creating the model of the "Imperial Cruiser" here´s the original picture.

Old thread and old story... Here´s an interesting video of an interview of that FBI man who interrogated Saddam Hussein on a daily basis. Most interesting IMO are the two last vids "Weapons of Mass Destruction" and "An Al Quaida Connection?". Interesting insights of Saddams own personal views.

Funny again, Tofu. Especially the joke: "I have shaved"!

Georg Lucas talks about the Clone Wars series and more... Very interesting are his statements about how he sees the six movies, possible sequels and the novels, which are obviously just belonging to the merchandising and have no meaning to the whole series and for him at all.

Which worldcup was it? @Krytos Cool finds!

Not accepting the fact that Anakin built Threepio all by himself, but accepting a possible fact, that he may have built him from lots of different spareparts. So it could be that all the software was preinstalled, which could explain why Threepio is able to communicate in thousands of different languages. Thus why there are several different protocoll-droids in the movies. They are fabricated and sold. Maybe each one has a unique personality like also the smaller astrodroids seem to have. I don´t want to think about why that´s like that, though it´s just to make them more sympathic for the audience.

Ha ha ha! Is that the body of a Kolibri?

Small is relative; the US has less than 5% unemployment. The amount considered "lazy" (IMO) is larger than you think Eagle. Gimme proof. No, you don´t have to. Because I don´t trust any statistics, though I know how tricky they are in providing us our statistics about unemployment in germany. Which they state is decreasing. But in fact they just put people into either some further training or in outsourced job-agencies. In both cases they don´t count as unemployed than. I´m pretty sure that our german authorities took that from some similar model from another country from far beyond the ocean, like they do most of the time.

Your an absolutely brilliant creator of Wolpertingers. Some nice Artwork of the GC-Mod: http://img212.imageshack.us/img212/628/bf194220070526180420he5.th.png http://img136.imageshack.us/img136/2121/bf194220070722221016ab3.th.png

Yes, exactly! Jahled looks pretty evil, even without his Stormtrooper-Armour. Crazy Dog

Some impressions of last nights event: Battle on Hoth "Ohh, I need some backup over here!" http://img72.imageshack.us/img72/1082/atatyx7.th.jpg No, don´t be afraid. That ATAT didn´t made it too far. It has been destroyed by the Millenium Falcon. "Aargh! I´ve been switched to the other side." http://img72.imageshack.us/img72/3462/atst2qi4.th.jpg "Gotta scout the area first." http://img388.imageshack.us/img388/3339/proberu0.th.jpg Had lots of fun yesterday. Next friday is another event. Same time, same place.

LoL, Rob! That´s pretty cruel.

Wow, Jahled! That´s a real masterpiece! It just looks pretty real.

"Punks are not dead!" Nice little fella. If my cousins face is looking evil, than how do you feel about myne? Edit: Looks like they aren´t that nice as they look like. Otherwise you shouldn´t have to guard them in full armour, Jahled: http://img187.imageshack.us/img187/576/pinguinebasel380jo5.jpg

Wasn´t R2 ordered by Leia to go and find Kenobi? Of course that tiny droid was aware of nearly everything, but it can´t talk. Maybe they felt that R2 was more reliable than C3PO, who is able to talk in thousands of language.

The GS-Clan is hosting a Galactic Conquest Event today on their own server called GS-Clan|Mod Server. It starts from 2.00 pm US East Coast Time and ends tomorrow at about 6.00 pm. I´m not sure if the server will run on version 5.3 or on the new version 6.0.

Heard about the dolphin-incident. It´s not just us who own a kind of intelligence or who care about others. Turning Star Wars japanese

I had to read this twice to be sure that I´ve read it right. I´m fully aware that you people in the US are forced to pay every kind of insurrance by yourself. But I hate statements like "people who get welfare are automatically lazy"! Because I just saw too much. I agree to a certain point that there are in fact people who are lazy and just want to benefit from welfare, but their number is rather small. Most people want to work if they would be able to. Most people need welfare because they are sick, disabled or just can´t get a job to pay all their needs. Saying people who get welfare are lazy is just right wing propaganda. We´ve had the same propaganda over here a couple of years ago, but now people get aware that things just can go bad. People who believe in such kind of propaganda seem not to know anybody who got in such a situation. Otherwise they wouldn´t howl with the wolfes. I really hope you two guys get never in such a situation where you need to get any kind of welfare. We´ve got a system where everybody has to pay for health insurrance in order to solidarity. Those who earn more money pay more than those who don´t earn that much. Both groups get the same medical treatment. That´s a good system which works here since ages. Nobody should die just because he isn´t able to pay for his medication. But btw you guys all want to vote for a special candidate. Some seem to vote because they like that guy or they won´t vote because they simply dislike that guy. Others just vote for a special candidate just because they allways vote for the same party, no matter if it turns out to be a good choice or not. A couple of months ago I´ve watched some vids of some of the candidates to get knowledge for what everybody is fighting for. But soon I got very disappointed about the fact that nearly everybody was talking about just the same, no matter if democrate or republican. They just talked about "ending the war on terror, the terror and the terrorists, bring the terrorists to justice" etc. etc. Of course that´s a very important subject. But I also wanted to know what those candidates have in mind to change for the people in the US. I´m pretty sure there are lots of other problems which need a good solution. But maybe they simply haven´t got one. That´s why they allways repeat the same propaganda. "Hey, vote for me! I´m republican! Nothing else matters!" "Hey, hello, vote for me! I´m a democrat! Nothing else matters!" "No, no, vote for me! I´m a democrat and I would be the first female president!" "Nooo, don´t listen to them! I would be the very first black president!" Sorry, but I´ve never heard anything what these guys want to change. I´m sure any of those candidates would do a good job. But they just telling some parols and that seems to be enough for the people. I just don´t see any substance. For example Obama allways talks about a big change if he would be in power. So what would it actually look like? The change of the presidents colour of skin isn´t just enough. I hope you get my point of view and don´t see this post as an insult.

... and we´ve got another one: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DarthTex!!! http://www.haflingerfreunde.de/cowboy.gif All the best and in your special case lots of health! Have a nice day with all your friends and your family members! Prost!

What about giving him Chewies face?

@Mitth My condolences to you and your familie. @Jahled Sounds like we know now that guy who will rent us a lear-jet for a forum meeting in Honolulu. On the last monday my father would have reached the 77th if he would be still alive.

That would be indeed pretty cool! Yes, all that is already available.

Evaders took Tofu´s avatar? That´s creepy! Edit: Yes, Shak Ti was who I had in mind. But that young padavan would also fit very well.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, tacojoemeru!!! http://www.cosgan.de/images/smilie/musik/e050.gif All the best and have the party of your lifetime! And don´t be too shy to post here.

LoL, Tex! Well the first one was in a german forum of course. I could give you the link for that, but you wouldn´t see the post though it´s in a hidden forum, which can´t be seen for unregistered users. The other one was my own forum, which nobody visits. But there is another one where I could post it. We´ll see. Cool Flashmobs. Maid PC Case For the lonely computer geek.
