Pics dont work on phtobucket lol
Umm, I don't use anything but photobucket for pics...I have over 265 hosted...and it works just perfect. So maybe you just don't have a screw turned in far enough? It really isn't very hard to use.

Photobucket is FTW. Maybe you're using the wrong type of code...did you try to put in on the forums as HTML?

very impressive. Just because something is a domeslide doesnt make it harder than non-slides thats a cap i dont think i could get, at least not without driving shields down to 50%...

I am honestly starting to doubt that as many of these caps with only screens are being done as people are saying...seems like one person does a corner cap all of a sudden EVERYONE does only corner caps.

There is an element of me-too-ism, but I think it's more a recording and attempting bias than anything else: More likely, someone does a corner cap and posts it, inspiring others to attempt and record these acts. All of the acts seem plausible in and of themselves, based on who's doing them, after all.

That is the thing, just because we know someone -can- do a cap doesn't mean every time they post that they did do that cap.

This is probably accurate, I wouldnt have started domesliding, at least not when i did, if it hadnt been for the rancores vids..

And tux i backed up my only unbelievable cap with a video of me repeating it :D

i wouldnt have tried half the things i have if it wernt for what ive seen here and in the videos thread...the rest was good luck and watching players in RL.

even if some of them may in fact may be fake. it has inspired me to try some nutty BBQ.

I am not saying there are unbelievable caps, or that people can't do the caps I have seen, I am saying I am getting suspect to some of the believable caps being fake.

Ahh, but in cases like that just comfort yourself with the idea that if someone takes the time to fake something so trivial, what losers they must be.
