Topicless thread

Valid points. That said, Leaf is correct that good hygiene goes a long way (ESPECIALLY for people with acne, arguably), but it isn't a cure-all. Or rather — good hygiene helps prevent the growth/spread of bacteria, which helps prevent infection and whatnot, but it doesn't actually get rid of the underlying causes of acne. (Like hormones, oil buildup in the skin, etc.)

As for makeup, I'm not sure that makeup itself is bad for skin, but caution has to be taken to use gentle, high-quality makeup and clean it off completely once you're done for the day. It's also important to wash or replace makeup application pads, brushes, sponges and whatnot regularly to prevent bacterial spread.

My little brother used to have chronic acne but then we took him to the dermatologist who prescribed him some creams and a pill.

He now has zero acne but sustained slight scarring on his checks but if you are having trouble with it and can afford to do so defiantly go to the dermatologist.

@Bella: Noted, for if I decide to start doing makeup for trap mode :3

@Kraus: Mmm. The part that sucks in my case? My mom had the same problem when she was my age, but she actually got to go to the dermatologist for it. As for me, I just had to deal with it; because if she's too cheap to get me something as major as a chickenpox vaccine, there's no way she'd go with anything beyond over-the-counter for acne treatment >_>;;

So, an eventful wrap-up for the day. I set out about 6:15 to go get food...and got caught in rush hour. After nearly clipping the frontend of some asshole in a Toyota who got into the lane next to me and floored it while I was trying to merge into that lane, I decided to make a stop at Toys 'R' Us as a breather; since I had a headache from all the stupid on the road. Saw some neat things, and ended up picking up Foto Showdown on clearance for $5 (It's a very obscure DS game I've always had an interest in). As a fun note, the bag they put the game in looks ancient; like maybe this tiny bag was something buried in their storeroom since the early '90s (As it has the logo of that era on it)

By the time I finished, it was a little after 7; traffic had, thankfully, started to relax, as I made my way toward Jucy's; easily the best burger place in the general area (They're the one I mentioned a few months ago, that had the Coca-Cola Freestyle fountain). Unfortunately, the traffic light was out at one intersection I went though (Thankfully, not as crowded as the last time that happened, but still makes me nervous when a traffic light goes into safe mode; all lights flashing red), so I planned an alternate route to get back to the hotel once I had my food. Which, I picked up a cheezburger, some fried pickles, and a large Orange Coke (Have I mentioned I love the Freestyle fountain? >w<)

I then made my trek back to the base; partially blinded by the sunset most of the way. I managed to make it back, as I went up to my room, got my laptop back out, and ate the burger. Now, I relax...although the other people in this hotel are being loud and obnoxious, so IDK how relaxed I can get here (I think if I ever do this again, I'm going back to the Quality Inn on the other end of town; so much quieter and cheaper)

I got bored and made a really quick mockup demo of a OS-TAN VN.

YEAH, THATS RIGHT. I ACTUALLY DECIDED TO PUT SOMETHING IN MOTION.

MAYBE WE CAN MAKE THIS GUYS. MAYBE WE CAN REVIVE THAT THREAD. MAYBE, WE CAN MAKE A GAME.

HAVE FUN.

please note: the following is just a SUPER SUPER crap mock up of what we can build off of in the future if anyone wants to jump on this crazy train with me...

[LeaflameSD]

I'm not really sure about this, to be honest.

[Nichi]

@Kraus: Cool. I might look at it later :3

So, I'm about to go get breakfast, and then likely head out before traffic gets crazy.

[LeaflameSD]

At the time I posted this, I had just completed the VN.

I like your sense of humor, Kraus.

@Kriz: Wut?

Back home now. Actually arrived faster than I expected to; which is nice. Also, I have a cat next to me :3

[Chocofreak13]

that's kriz's plug for a pro-apple storyline that will end up being zealous as shit if we prioritize one OS school over the other
not really anyone's fault here that there is more material for the windows-tans, i believe that if this actually gets going there'll be macs involved too, so cool your jets


working so much on the changeling wiki lately. ordered a new base for my external yesterday, so for the time being, i'm thankful that i queued up reviews for the next couple weeks since i doubt i'll be able to watch anything for a little while. now, to devote more time to the wiki.

What are you going on about?

Kraus's story uses I'pomme in place of Apple, somebody had to joke about it!

I actually was just trying to use another name for Apple so used the French translation for "The Apple", had no idea that an apple repair store was called that lol.

Also, forgot the "%" signs because the first time around it was messing with Ren'Py and I forgot to put them back in lol.

[Krizonar]

It is fine, it came off as cute.

Also fine as it was more a demonstration than an actual work! I have seen this program used before but I have never managed to catch its name, what is it called?

Oh yea, its defiantly just a demo because I came up with the story and ripped the images from the gallery in around 10 minutes.

The programme is called Ren'Py and uses a slightly modded version of Python for its programming language.
