I doubt he'd use anything other than Photoshop. Something like that is pretty simple to do relatively speaking.

Rockstar Games revealed on Twitter in the early hours of this morning that a trailer for The Ballad of Gay Tony is coming "very soon". How soon is "very soon" you might ask, well big site updates and trailers are usually launched by Rockstar at the end of the week, so maybe even tonight. Next week is perhaps more likely, but we'll keep you posted on any specifics we learn of. If you're a Twitter user yourself remember you can follow both Rockstar and The GTA Place to keep up to date with all the latest news.

lol, nice. Is there a way to put that in PHPBB3, so that users in my forum browsing on IE6 and earlier will be advised to upgrade? Sure, it's just HTML. Check the source code. The bit you need is: <!--[if lte IE 6]> <div id="ie6notice"><strong>NOTICE:</strong> Internet Explorer 6 was released in August 2001 and is now severely out of date, insecure, and doesn't work properly with modern websites. Please upgrade to a better browser.<br /> <div id="otherbrowsers"><img src="/images/icons/ie6-firefox.png" alt="" border="0" /> <a href="http://www.getfirefox.com">Firefox</a> <img src="/images/icons/ie6-opera.png" alt="" border="0" /> <a href="http://www.opera.com">Opera</a> <img src="/images/icons/ie6-safari.png" alt="" border="0" /> <a href="http://www.apple.com/safari/">Safari</a> <img src="/images/icons/ie6-chrome.png" alt="" border="0" /> <a href="http://www.google.com/chrome">Chrome</a></div> Need to stick with Internet Explorer? <img src="/images/icons/ie6-ie8.png" alt="" border="0" /> <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/">upgrade to the latest version</a> </div> <![endif]--> Obviously you'll need to write some CSS for it to display correctly. But just put that wherever you want the message to appear. Don't hotlink my browser icons though. @geran: Thanks. No idea what the hell is causing to display in that position. Is it just that particular ad, or every one?

Pics or she doesn't have one... Oh.. wait, never mind.

Guys can you do me a favour and print screen the ads because it's a lot easier for us to point out the malicious ones and get them stopped from showing. @Husky: Yeah I've had that myself sometimes. I do use AdBlock but not on TGTAP as I need to see that ads are displaying. I think it's just that based on your location and the content on the site there is nothing relevant to show, or something like that. I don't know, I don't serve the ads.

Ha, happy birthday Chestnut. Try and have a good one

If you must use IE then at least upgrade to version 7 or 8, preferably 8. Only today I revised our Anti-IE6 message to get rid of this crappy browser. It wastes too much of my time trying to support it so like many web 2.0 sites out there we're dropping support, and new features on TGTAP will require you to not use it. IE6 users currently see the website like this:

It's spyware. Was this on TGTAP? If so it needs to be sorted out ASAP so let me know. If it was off some other site then this is in the wrong section. If you use Firefox then download an addon called AdBlock Plus and ensure the URL of the popup is blacklisted. EDIT: Sorry I misread. So yeah. What topic were you replying to at the time?

The Lambo's and Audi's are my personal favourites this week. The Veyron is pretty cool too.

Yeah I just wanted to say something else. I can't be fucked to check out if that blog post is actually hers, but regardless... I think it would be more awesome if she wasn't a hermaphrodite and is in fact trolling everyone. If she is then fair play, that's fucking awesome. +9001 internets to her. The YT videos are fucking shit. They are so low quality and you people are sure you can see a penis bulge? Come on. Unless someone can provide a high res crotch shot showing a bulge that is too big to be simply some large labia, then I couldn't care less.

Week number four of our vehicle round up, again switching to a different day (sorry!) due to some things that came up in the last few days. We're getting to a point where it's becoming more sensible just to post a smaller selection rather than list every mod we've added. This week, a selection of what are, in my opinion, 15 of the best mods that have been added: Audi R8 4.2 FSI Audi S4 Quattro Bugatti Veyron 16.4 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 1969 Dodge Charger General Lee 2007 Dodge Charger SRT8 1996 Dodge Viper Honda CRX 1.3 Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Lamborghini Murcielago LP460 Lancia Delta HF Integrale WRC Rally Edition Mazda RX-7 FC3s Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII (yes, another one) Renault Megane Coupe 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STi 2006 Nothing here take your fancy? Remember you can always sort the vehicles by most recently updated if you want to see the complete list containing many more great cars. I've had a couple of requests of offers to help with this, however, aside from uploading mods (make sure you have the author's permission if it isn't yours) there isn't much you can do. We are looking to update our modding tutorials and FAQs though, as at the moment we only have a severely outdated FAQ which doesn't even include GTA IV modding. I'll hopefully get something done myself for this, but we'd also like to provide translations of any tutorials we add. So if you can help with anything of that sort then let me know.

Does anyone fucking care if she has a penis or not? I don't. I don't really know who the fuck she is though. Apparently just some lame popstar who wears outrageous costumes, obviously her singing must be shit so she needs to draw attention in other ways. And people are about a person who is like this? Retarded.

No, you uploaded a .png that wasn't actually a png. It's undergoing changes fairly soon though.

Look: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=chris I'M FUCKING AWESOME! Apparently. Sadly I'm not in real life but wow. lol.

had to be the british flag XD Haha I actually did LOL at that. Wow, so even as far away places as Australia they're aware of the massive amounts of Paki's and Indians flooding our country, or rather, the Midlands and London

I've posted my take on this which I think everyone should read, so I posted it as news.

According to German classifications board Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle (that's USK to us normal folk), two trailers for The Lost and Damned have recently been rated by them for the PC, both marked as "gamescom-Trailer". Here's a link to this information. Gamescom is a new trade fair for the gaming industry, with over 300 exhibitors due to show off their products in Cologne, Germany on 19-23rd August. Rockstar Games are indeed due to exhibit there, so the information appears to check out. No official announcement has come from Rockstar or Microsoft yet though, and of course we can't really trust ratings boards these days, whilst they have been known to accidentally leak information, they've also been known to make mistakes in the past. Another possibility is that the USK could have easily made the mistake of actually meaning The Ballad of Gay Tony trailers. The fact it says "PC" under the system heading is simply due to the fact the trailers will be shown on a PC. Though one might question the decision to show two trailers at once, and why at gamescom? With all due respect, it's not the biggest audience to show a new product to. If you search for the original GTA IV trailers for the consoles, you'll notice they're marked as being for "PC", when quite obviously it is meant that they were being released/shown on the medium of PC which if you remember is exactly what happened, it was only later in the day/week that the trailers were put on the Xbox Marketplace and PlayStation Store. So anyway, take the news with a pinch of salt for now. Basically, we, and in fact nobody has any idea what this is all about. We'll update you if we hear more on this matter. If not then we'll have to wait until gamescom begins to find out what exactly is being shown there. UPDATE: Rockstar have confirmed that all trailers are released under the PC platform as they are submitted for playback on PC. Which confirms my thoughts on that, and also confirms that it doesn't mean that TLaD will be coming to the PC (though it doesn't rule it out either).

Take it with a pinch of salt, ratings boards have been known to confuse systems in the past. Does seem a little weird though, researching the facts right now so I might make a news post in a while.

Only in Europe mind, thanks to our superior law system on anti-competitive practices I don't need to pre-order. Being a UK university student I will be able to download a fully legit copy of Ultimate for free via the MSDN Academic Alliance Already using 7 now though, just without the serial number until MSDN puts it online.

Ha, no problem. I wasn't sure if you were going to upload it or not so I uploaded it myself yesterday, you must've uploaded that not long after me actually.

Yeah 7 is a really good OS, no need to keep XP now to be honest. What do you use Ubuntu for? Just out of interest.

Oh I like how you changed the poll after half of us had already voted when it was between just 7 and Vista... Luckily I'm an admin so I can change my vote. But either way I don't think it's something you can really poll, because some OS's are just suited to certain people at the end of the day. And some of us, like me, use multiple OS's everyday.

Ha, what a retard.

This is such a pointless topic. Vista cannot compete with 7 on any level. Anyone who chooses Vista is mentally deficient.
