The Underground Railroad

[Zwaken]

Here it is! Made completly with Jump Jets and Islands! (and I shot one Lucky Shot, but it didn't contribute to the tunnel making).

[Xap]

Neato! Why is it named that though?;)

[Everlast]

Yeah cool pic, but I don't get teh name either. :p

[???revived]

I don't think trains make loop-de-loops...

Then again, that might be some undersground railcoaster...

[Xap]

Ooh, railercoaster...:shocked:

[Imposter]

The name seems familiar...

I think it was something in american history class.

[Xap]

Yes, it was when the American slaves traveled in secrecy to the north to become free.;)

[Zwaken]

Neato! Why is it named that though?;)

Because I couldn't think of anything else at the time...I should have just called it the looping tunnel :)

Scince your from a different country, I'll explain. The underground railroad was a pathway that got slaves away from their masters. (no, it wasn't really underground).

[???revived]

I learned about that years ago...

I was referring to the picture itself...

[Everlast]

Huh? :confused:

[Loofiloo]

*Ahem*

............. PNG, PNG, PNG, PNG, PNG!!!

[Xap]

Yes, as Loofiloo is hinting, use PNGs! Jpegs and gifs reduce the quality of the pictures, making them a bit blurry.
PNGs are nice and clean!:)
Still, cool picture. I think I already said that though. ;)

[Kalphite]

And PNG's load faster... or for me they do.

[Loofiloo]

Well, they should. They're the same quality as bitmaps, but they're much smaller files.

[Everlast]

How come that is?

[Was It Me?]

Better compression algorithm... ;)

[Loofiloo]

Yeah, complicated programming mumbo jumbo. It doesn't really matter why PNGs are smaller. It's just good that they are. If you ask me, they should start doing away with Bitmaps and just convert to PNGs. I think in Vista, the default file type to save in Paint should be PNG, as well as anything else that currently uses bitmap as the default. If not Vista, then... The next Windows.

[Xap]

I'm with you on this one. Who uses bmp's anyway?:rolleyes:

[TranQ]

lmao ? I read the book " The Underground Railroad " . Plus there should be houses if ur going to use that because there were houses along the way to their freedom to CANADA !!
