  1. I use photoshop and don't know anything about your program, but I use the pen tool to make a selection and then just delete everything inverse to the selection. Sometimes I'll lower the layer's opacity way down to make it transparent and then use the eraser by hand to erase everything. Create a layer mask (reveal all) and then use the black (darken) paintbrush on the mask to paint over what you want hidden. Then if you screw up, you can just reverse it using a white (lighten) paint brush. That way gives you more control than selecting and deleting or erasing huge chunks and having to undo if you mess up, and nothing is lost permanently. Oh, that was for Photoshop, I don't know anything about Pixelmator. Thanks to both of you. Despise the fact that you were talking about Photoshop I've still got it figured out a bit.
  2. http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/OleMissCub17/soridino.jpg New favorite.
  3. Is there a simple way to remove all the rough edges of an image besides simply erasing them? I'm using a program called Pixelmator.
  4. That makes mine look terrible. I have absolutely no clue how to layer it like that.
  5. Make it so, people. http://www.virginmedia.com/microsites/movies/slideshow/top-ten-movie-wizards/img_4.jpg EDIT: I tried. I'm not good at this stuff... http://lh6.ggpht.com/_v0HFlgLqkqo/SlzLhaysvjI/AAAAAAAAADM/6cMquRLPrVw/s400/Emperor2.jpg
  6. This is the best thread in history. I'm saving all these pictures.
  7. That's probably b/c they didn't know Fuld was available. We have enough CFs in the minors who can't hit, thank you very much. I don't see what that has to do with Sam Fuld...
  8. You should be on Last Comic Standing - Calling Gallagher, Patterson, and Murton major league ready players. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Wait...you are laughing at the absurdity of a trade proposal? What's wrong with it, doesn't involve enough teams? Hahahahaha brilliant.
  9. we have a lot to go off of. Fuld has a long career in the minors and has proven he can't hit.
  10. If the Pirates get Fuld, they'll just end up with the number 31 pick each year, so it wouldnt be wort it. Nice.
  11. Sam Fuld is a champion. I say we offer Fuld for Sanchez and the Pirates top draft picks for the next three years.
  12. If we get Sanchez, our entire lineup is filled with guys that should be anywhere from above average to well above average for their positions.
  13. He refused to take his position. I can't recall another player ever doing that. Yes, he finally went to left and found out it wasn't so bad. But, a player refusing to go to the position the manager assigned him to offends me. Maybe I'm wrong, but I just don't think that happened. He didn't refuse anything when push came to shove.
  14. What a genuinely horrible idea. Anyone who builds a team around Sam Fuld should not only be fired, but also shot. Theriot is a keeper though. I don't think I'd fire Lou just yet... but if we don't make the playoffs, then I'd probably part ways. I wouldn't mind Ryno. And screw draft picks. Sarcasm detection; poor.
  15. I know the years with Sammy in his prime were spectacular, but I can't imagine how fun it would be to have a guy like Albert Pujols on your own team. Maybe Vitters can become the elite hitter we all hope he will be.
  16. I would really love to get Fox into the lineup more somehow...
  17. Soriano's age revelation happened several years back.
  18. Frenchy made a comment about how it'll be nice to play in front of a full house every night. So, yeah, a brief parting shot at Atlanta.
  19. Guys I'm going to go ahead and say with certainty he's not going to respond to any of that.
  20. I think +100 is a reasonable although not ideal indicator of post season ability. Some guys are cut out for the pressure, some are not. I'm saying they should not be batting leadoff. So, the Astros shouldn't have batted Biggio lead-off in all of those postseasons? They were also a bad post season team. At this point, I think everyone has to back off. This guy is not going to be persuaded by logic or rationale thought. Just let him be.
  21. From Garciaparra to Polanco, you're really going out of your way to acquire players that were really good five years ago.
  22. Well, I don't know what to tell you. With his inferior defense, near certainty to get hurt, and bat that really is no guarantee to be significantly better than Fontenot's, I'd call Nomar a wash if I was being generous. This isn't 1999. Heck, it isn't 2006.
  23. Seriously though, how much would Nomar cost? Couldnt be too expensive. Maybe 1 of Hoffpauir/Hart/Fuld and 1 or 2 lower level prospects? If we werent giving up much, Id give Nomar one more go. To do what? He'd almost certainly be worse than Fontenot. Heck, scrap the almost. He'd be way worse than Fontenot.
  24. I never thought I'd say this, but at this point I have literally no faith that Rich Harden will have even a decent start.
