AK would be sick but I cant afford it period I can And I havent lost my ballzy legs - just havent had the chance to ski anything big (except two lines this year ) Its all bout tradeoffs mate and what you can/cant live with. Good for you that you get to live and die in Hakuba. MOST people cant FT...we're normal people with normal lives, and will only be able to do just a few days/year or a few trips/year. Just gotta make the most of em Link to post Share on other sites

Kumapix 0 Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Hey SOck Monkey, why are all the pics i got from you only 72 dpi? I think your player/storage thingy lowers the resolution.... Link to post Share on other sites
dizzy 0 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 thanks for the advice, fubuki. i'm going. but i'm going mainly to see my brother and his sprouting nephews and to welcome the new one. i wanna teach the oldest (5) to snowboard on our resort days. we've squeezed the heli days in tight as. if it's no-fly weather, we get our money back and have snowcat days. i've been working for 9 years of my life now, supporting myself for about 11. there's a reason i horde my money away in summers ebc do u remember what i told u when we were coming down from tsugaike last summer? u should ditch graduation, especially if there's nothing invested in there. cb, i'd say come w/ me but CPG told me i got the last seat on the chopper for those days. oh well. we're having a record-breaking year for such little snowfall here. ak in december of last year broke records--28 feet. that's why i'm going. now is the time. ak is beautiful. last time i was there was may three years ago. i still had had a cast on my arm so no riding then: Link to post Share on other sites

Kumapix 0 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 sock monkey i'm pretty sure you can't add dpi to a photo. sure, you can set it in photoshop but you are just trying to blow up a 72dpi, it doesn't get back to a true 300 Link to post Share on other sites
