<----------was never a geek or good at any video games, but loved to watch boB play Zelda, and super mario....like all the time!!!! hehehe
When I do that, the image shows up in the middle of the code and all the code is visible. I guess I'm not as big of a nerd as I thought I was. I'll turn in my badge now.
I am using photobucket to host the picture if that makes a difference. I'm using the IMG code they give.

yeah i learned HTML because i had 1 and there wasn't much else to do on it...lol
and if u used to chat at TC i'm both the same DC and EH if u were in the new2 rooms
Jules. Are you coding in HTML, like for a website, or is this for a forum signature?
If you're using HTML try using that piece of code again but instead of pasting the IMG code they give just take the DIRECT LINK and paste it over the part of my code that says "image link here"
Tell me how that works out. And what are you coding in? Notepad? If so attach the file for me.
It can be done. I made one out of a Wii lightsaber for cheap, but for a battleready with blade would take a different approach. (some kind of a quick change mount for the LED that lights the blade)
PM me with some more guidelines and I'll try and work something up.

I found the thread where I posted the pics of it.

I have since stole the 510 connector out of it, but otherwise it is intact.

Karr, no insult intended, you are truly a nerd-god! What are you in Warcraft? Gotta be a mage.....
You guys are baby nerds, My first computer was a big metal box that when you took the cover off was the keyboard, had only an orange screen and came with two games Pong and something else I cant remember.
The second one was a keyboard from TI called a TRS 800 that you hooked up to a small TV (not a computer screen) and had to program everything in yourself it came with a book and to play a game or get it to play a song I spent hours putting each command in individually. it was kind of cool because with the clue game you could change the names of the people and weapons etc. And most impressive for the times was after programming in Somewhere over the rainbow there was actually graphics. Neither of these had Disc or floppy drive slots, you could only hook them up to a word processor.
I knew Gary Gigax before his wife divorced him and took the holdings to DD and went to his funeral a few years ago.
And I was a Ms Pac Man champion.
Oh God I am old and I am only 50.

My first computer was a Sage -- it's the make/model Apple bought to develop the Lisa (the predecessor to the Mac).
I guess I'm a baby nerd, too!
Been playing video games since I was about 6. My mom worked in a bowling alley and I just hung out there all day playing Popeye, Donkey Kong, Centipede, & Ms. Pac-Man. Now I'm just an RPG nerd. I have a PS3, PS2, PSP, a Wii, Gameboy Advance, & my original Playstation. Favorite sereis is Shin Megami Tensei.
I think the most fun I've ever had was beating the original Zelda with my sister. Seemed so rewarding at the time (guess it was cuz we didn't have cheats back then!).
Love golfing. Guess I'm a golf nerd. We just got a driving range at the army base where I work and I go there at lunch sometimes & practice. I try to play almost every weekend with my husband.
Don't really like I guess "chick flicks". I'm more into sci-fi/horror/fantasy type stuff. I also have a weird obsession with putting together Ikea furniture.
Also am kind of a Japanophile. I'm obsessed with pretty much anything having to do with Japan: anime, video games, cuisine, Hello Kitty.

I agree with this!
Btw, you're all a buncha geeks.
Although, I have to admit it's amusing to watch folks try to one-up each other in their geekdom.Since geekdom seems to center around video games, here's my repertoire:
Atari games - loved Pitfall and Asteroids!
Tandy 1000 - yeah, that's one old, old computer but it's where I was introduced to Kings Quest, Leisure Suit Larry, and a host of other Sierra games
Was online starting in 1996 - remember the old AOL MUDs?
Got into The Realm and it all went downhill from there. Soon I was beta-testing all sorts of MMORPGs, including Everquest I and II, DAOC, WOW, LOTR, etc.
Sadly, I think I've finally got out of MMORPGs. Although it's hard to say since I'm still watching Star Wars: Old Republic to see how it's going to turn out. Didn't sign up for the beta though.
I left my life as a nerd behind when I started high school. now 11 years later I only ever turn on my xbox to watch netflix. (Haven't even done that in a long time as my new tv has it built in)
I do however love RC Cars so I guess with all the tech involved in them I can still be counted a nerd/geek.
favorite ever video game. Super mario bros. that game never gets old.

Heh, I think I'm just the opposite. While I had an active social life in high school, my nerdiness kicked into high gear there. Guess it all worked out for me though. Haven't paid for a degree yet, but sadly there are no more left for me to get in my chosen field.
When they call it a terminal degree, they're not kidding! It just about kills you!
the origional? the 1 that can b beat in an hr? both versions in 2?
In HS, we used to go every weekend to see the midnight showing. Rice packs and water guns on hand.
Me too, I'm still no good at video games, but love to watch my friends and kids play it.
Ahhhh, the green screen. Gotta love it. I never even saw a computer till I joined the military in the 80's.
In HS I was a band/drama/glee Geek. I was the only female drummer and bassoonist.
I have ALWAYS been a TREKKIE!!!!!
I am such a Trekkie, that I have been called a walking Star Trek encyclopaedia by everyone who knows me. Yes, I have uniforms and Geek out in them to any convention I can go to. I belong to Starfleet and am a member if UFS in Second Life.
My Trekkie nerdiness goes so far as to have played stump the panel at a convention. You're supposed to ask a question to the panel comprised of the actors and other Star Trek celebs. If you can stump them you get a prize. Pretty bad when the question I asked was of an episode the panelists where in and they couldn't even remember the name of the episode. LOL!
Yep, Geek alert here.
Only thing I really miss now that I can only walk with crutches is I can't do the time warp anymore,lol I still watch it on video and sing along though,lol Did you do the toilet paper for Dr. Scott? lmao I've gotten up and done the movie in front of the screen several times. Ahhh, those were that days.
