Date Taken: Not sure
Editing: YES
Editing Program: PS5
Total Editing Time: 30mins or a bit more never keep track of time

Screenshot Honours: SSOTW entry not a winner but was voted twices
Description: Probably my most liked shot as it played on the fact he did very well that weekend. My screenshots never look amazing as i play on a basic laptop but most of the time I spend about half hour playing with curves, blur tools etc... until I'm happy with my screen
- Not my favourite shot though but sure one of my better shots

That was because I had 10 different versions of the shot. I would spend like 20 minutes editing each time I decided to edit. But I kept coming back and editing it a bunch. So the amount of time ended up being 2 hours, 45 mins.

Can someone tell me how i can make a blur background nice with adobe photoshop cs5?
i know, noob question ...

Thanks!

you ever coming back full time?

you ever coming back full time?

Honestly, probably not. But that is not an official no.

When MXS was lost after my computer crashed, I really thought about coming back. But with my life being around training around ClubMX and MXS as a distraction, it was in my best interest to just quit it all together. Especially being in B class and trying to make it to Loretta's, I need all the dedicated time I can get.

Even if I wanted to come back, I need a better computer. My laptop only has such a good graphics card. I could only play with 10 players on max graphics with no objects. That is also with only like two high quality models being used by all of the players in the game. I want to do all of the big races, but I need a good computer. Me and my parents can't afford to get a $1000 PC that can play with 40 riders, max graphics, objects, roost, etc and on huge tracks (outdoor series). $1000 into a computer, just for one game seems like a waste to me. $1000 could go into money spent at ClubMx, gas for a huge race, trick parts for my bikes and extra bikes. If I was rich then it would be a different story.

Even if I did come back, I wouldn't enjoy it here. I honestly don't like the way that the community acts around here. A majority of it is fine and I have some good friends here, but there are people who made my stay here (there are parts that are my fault too) miserable and I honestly don't feel like dealing with them (I am not going to name anyone they know who they are).
