| You have more guts than me. I'm too chicken to run up to mobs to get good close-up screen shots. You're a galka, you can afford the hit with all that HP you have, even on BLM or SMN. har har har | |

| I've got less than 900 HP on SMN and BLM both. It's all about timing! You run in, et whacked twice and then run out again, run away and heal, etc etc. If you get lucky and no AOE crap moves are used, great!
And start typing /names when you take pics, all those names in your pics look like crap!
Oh and, change your res on your computer to 1280X9+ anything over 900 will be ok, though it might look distorted until you get to 1000+. I've got mine on 1280X800, but that's just because it won't go any higher with this shit graphics card. | |

| Her res is 1440x900. It looks like ass because she's not using Fraps. | |

| Neither am I. It looks like ass because her FFXI/PoL config resolution is set to 800X600. Click the Playonline folder and you should see an icon for Playonline Configuration. | |

| Nope, it's set to 1280x1280 or w/e the max is. It looks amazing irl and I'm constantly jealous. She also doesn't have windower so can't adjust anything there. | |

| Srsly, the pics she posts look like she's got her comp res is set to 800X600; I had mine set there forever for performance reasons and it looks exactly llike that. Anything grainy or blocky, like the pixels aren't getting smoothed out, is going to be significantly less than 1280 and look like crap when she tried to manipulate the pics.
You said her comp is set to 1440/900; try changing it to 1280X1024 (or higher, it's the second number that matters for this purpose) and go into the PoL configuration tool under the Playonline folder (not windower, it's Pol stuff), and set the overlay res graphics to 1024X1024; also set the background graphics to 1280X800 and the texture compression and environmental animation to smooth. It evens those pixels out a lot.
Oops, it's the FFXI config tool that matters; it's got graphics res and all that shit in there. | |

| My monitor and game are set to max. Please shut up. You're the only one who is having a contest over pix. Nobody really cares. | |
