Yeah, you're right, but you have to admit, there's a lot more stuff that goes on now a days then there was back then. Around here (Santa Cruz is a dump) we have riots, gang fights, graffiti everywhere, anything bad you could think of. I think it's all going down the tiolet. I'm not saying that everything is bad, but it's getting worse all the time.

i don't want to hi jack thread. yeah things look bad. i live in noho (L.A.) gangland. but really it isn't that bad. obviously there's certain places i try to avoid.

IMO things aren't that worse. the problem is there's so much more media now. back in the day there were only a few newscasts a day. NOW there's news 24/7 it's big business so they blow the tiniest things out of proportion. then a tiny story gets big and all the other networks jump on the band wagon. ask your dad, he may think the same way. things may be more shoicking or up front than they were back then but, it's only because the new media makes huge bucks scaring the hell out of everyone. the typical newcast is all bad news, a little sports and like a 3 minute feel good story at the end.

looks REALLY good, Homer! Congratulations on setting out to accomplish something and (with a little help) getting it done! That always feels good! :D

Kc,

I seem to vaguely remember that in the early 80's I think I saw them on the Orioles for a few games. I might be wrong though as I was very young at the time, but I was a huge O's fan back then and I remember that for a few games (special events, etc) their hats were different.

sweet. i'll release it in an update on my mariners uni. if anyone else would like to add it to their uni, just hit me with a pm.

Just a quickie, but I think you should remove the circle vents from the cap to match the photo on the first page?

Jim, can you look at my generic face pack and recommend a better way to do my alphas? I feel like I'm doing it too, arcaic. I use word, photo editor, and I guess that is it. Like, how in the world is your alpha better than the other guys? Remember that alpha image you did where you uploaded a file called glasses for Mo and your alpha was superb, really. It wasn't until I learned photoshop (recently) that I was able to do better alphas (slightly better). Just looking for advice. pdub recommended that I learn fshed. Any comments?

I'll have a look, but I use Paintshop Pro, though the ideas should be similar

I can't stop looking at that dang hat, Jim. Man.

homer, Jim, either of you two thinking about doing just a hat mod for all of MLB? You don't have to say yes, I'm just wondering if there are any bigger plans for this.

that is correct. you can simply unpack my uniform and pull the aplha out of there and add it to any of your uniform mods, making sure to match up the dimensions of the hat file. just make sure to edit the index file. then repack it.
