  • Random AMVs rantage 2006-04-16 05:31:02 I download AMVs when:
    1) something new catches my attention in announcements forums
    2) someone I know and whose AMVs I like releases something new
    3) someone recommends one

    I also sometimes download random AMVs. This usualy happens when I listen a song/artist and find myself thinking "I wonder if anyone has made an AMV out of it". So I search through the org for those and if I'm lucky I'll find something. In most cases I find nothing.. because:
    A) There aren't any AMVs with the song
    B) I find around 20 AMVs.. all of them uses anime from the most used anime-list. Bleh..
    C) Only interesting one in the list is unavailable for download

    This SUCKS!

    For this reason I have over the years grown a huge dislike of AMVs that uses series which there's already tons of AMVs made with.
    Other reason to download random AMVs is when I have watched a series and want to see AMVs made with it. These are mostly new series so changes to find an AMV made out of it are very.. very.. low.

    </end of just another rant against all those NGE, Naruto, DBZ, RK, FFwhatever-AMVs> 
  • Unusual AMV-problem 2006-03-22 12:10:39 Of course I keep making AMVs. This time it'll be something completely for myself and (mainly) any possible finnish speaking audience. Basic reason for making it is a simple "because I feel like making it next". Anyway.. the point is that with this one I'm having a problem that I haven't really encountered before.
    I can't think a good title for it..
    Damn be the one that decided that AMVs need to have a title. Normally I at least can use the song name as a title.. but this time I changed (again) the original meaning too much to use the song name. I have tried to come up with a title based on the plot/idea/concept but none of those were satisfying. Neither in finnish or in english. This means that when I finish the AMV (currently on production) I just choose the one that fits most and then end up hating it afterwards.. *shrug*

    ..and btw: My FTP-server is back up again. More details in my profile. If you are having any problems with it send a PM or Email to me.  
  • yay 2006-02-01 03:05:33 I'm 25 now.. lol 
  • I'm back (hopefully) 2006-01-11 03:04:50 I'm starting to get things working with my PC (knocks wood) so I can start bugging people here again. This one really happened in a worst possible time. I couldn't make a major upgrade right now, but small improvements has been made for my hardware. I'm now running on Sempron 3000+ with 1gb memory. Also added some 40gb of HD-space It seems that in addition of burned motherboard I also had two broken (and one insufficient) ATX-power sources. What luck..

    And now for something completely different...

    Haven't looked what's going on here, but it seems VCA's have started and I have to mention again that I just love the amount of seriousness going on in the VCA-section of the forums. I am SO going to VOTE FOR GODIX! 
  • meltdown.. 2005-12-20 05:41:49 Long story short:
    My computer totally crashed last weekend and can't figure out what's wrong with it. Will be "out of business" for some time. Hopefully I can get it running soon. Worst case scenario going way over Xmas... so I'll miss the Xmas MEPs ;(
