  1. Skipper thanks for the warning.. but those things are easy to peel off! That's what i've done with my liverpool cl shirt, you can peel off the white thing they used for the 'carlsberg'.. The only problem being that some people might think it's fake, but who cares..
  2. lol. azmaya. Some people's breath does feel like it's burning your nasal hair walahi. The trick is to carry Blue Extra, eat one yourself before offering it to them, and if they decline, INSIST.

    Writing a book

    One of the projects I'd love to work on in the future is a comic-style book about the Siirah, I know it's been done before, but I wanna do it differently. I don't wanna do the cartoony stuff aimed at little kids, I want to grab the interest of teenagers and young adults. When I was at that age I had no interest in reading about the siirah at all because most books were hundreds of pages long and it just put me off. I wanna do it in proper digital art style, one page of the book be in writing, and facing it would be the picture. After I've heard the full siirah of the prophet Muhammad saw 2 years ago, I could visualize every scene the speaker was describing, and I wanted to share what I could see in my mind. The main parts that interested me were the battles, from the trenches to the one-on-one fights.. I know the opnion of drawing faces is split, and I dont wanna get into that too much. Considering that each image takes about 12 hours, this might take me years since i wanna do at least 200 images. Ya Latiif! It's on the list of my 'things to do for Islam', to tell people about our prophet Muhammad pbuh.

    Knight Rider

    You need an American car for the knight rider, and the redesign of the Mustang fits the bill perfectly. The Koenigseggggggg looks sick, but it's just too much for Mr knight

  6. Since when was a big forehead dreaded now? Mine goes all the way up to the back of my neck :cool:
  7. ~Blessed~, 100 liras is 2 dollars/a quid.. take ngonge advice and pay up.. 200 Liras should do the trick tho.. otherwise they'll send you to 5 different offices, or worse, tell you to just 'wait there' and fill useless forms. And if you're goin to tsay for more than 2 weeks, extend your visa from emirates.. you don't wanna go to 'jawazaat' trust me. Thanks for the link too, i think i've seen the work before, but i just didn't know who the artist was. ~Ghanima~ What kind of stuff are you gonna look for? Please send them anyway.
  8. Very well written Ghanima, and I have enjoyed it readin it, even tho this is the longest post I've read on SOL so far. I agree with everything you said too. And it's also one of the main messages Amr Khaled preaches to the young arabs. I desperately wanna do something for Islam and Somalia, but since all my education and talents lie in art, I'm completely out of ideas on what to do or where to start.
  9. Mashallah, beautiful cities. Makes me wanna go there right now.. There's still hope. A That's my favorite place when I need to get away F Must forget but we can't forget to pray R Like Lance ridin' on the runway I In my homeland and I'm feelin' so alive C Hear me chant Africa unite A Gonna accept the mass alright Still ya don't know Skin is so dark and brown She lifts me right off the ground But no ya not gonna see it on ya tv So yo just listen up and believe me Her trees have the only cure Her love is so new and pure Had to kiss them troubles goodbye bye No I don't have to lie mama Africa, you got.. So much love to share..

Not sure about the kazakhi part (Borat and his sister comes to mind), but I agree 100% with the blackanese chicks, sizzling indeed. I can't decide on one so i'll narrow it down to three choices: -Somalia (I have seen some heart achingly beautiful somali girls) -Khaleeji girls, oh yeah -Mixed race (Afro mixed with white/korean/jap/chinese
  13. Salaam. Why is this section DEAD? There’s no traffic at all, and since Conspiracy was appointed as a moderator here.. why did he disappear..? Cons.. where art thou? There was an exhibition last week in my uni, showcasing the work of the Master’s graduates in automotive design. I don’t think a lot of people know that Car design is a profession, an extremely competitive one in fact. And one I’m hoping to get into. Automotive design degree is a specialized course which only a handful of universities offer, and Alxamdu Lillah I am in arguably the best department of them all. The reason I’m posting this here is just to share my passion and what I love doing here with everyone. I’ll start posting degree shows (a massive end of course exhibition) starting from last week’s MA show (masters). But InshAllah after a couple of years it’ll be my work you’ll be seeing here in this thread! Basically this is what a car design degree is like in most cases.. 1st and 2nd year: Self development, research projects. 3rd year: placement year – spend 6 months working in a studio Final year: Self-set Minor and Major Projects includes making a qtr-scale model of own design > Degree show > hopefully employment Anyways, the pictures.. Some cars from the Transport Museum (where the show is held).. Coming next inshallah will be the typical work of a car designer, and I might post my personal work. Hope you enjoy the pics and find this thread informative in some way. Till next time..
  14. I agree with the science/health section, it would be good if it replaces an existing one. There are some dormant sections in the board, as a lot of the threads are posted in the general lounge even if they relate to another area.
  15. Juicing is 'in' at the moment, buy Jason Vale's recipe books, if you don't lose weight at least you'll feel energized. According to his books anyway. Goodluck
  16. Where can I watch it online tuugnimo? I don't have Sky/Freeview so there's no chance of pay-per-view.. If I was a betting man I'd put my money on Hatton any day. Pretty boy my ****. Last time i watched a Vegas fight, I had to stay up till 5am waiting for the fight, only for Naseem to lose against Barrera
  17. I liked you better when you're name was Liiban and you had this lanky somali guy in your avatar with a half-arsed facial expression.. but still your posts are always amusing brotha Fully deserved I say.

  21. I'm looking for an old thread, but the search hasn't found any matching results. I've started descending from page 150 of the general section.. *Didn't know Valentina was once called Zephyrine.. and another weird name i cant remember **And Serenity, you were Curling Waterfall..? deja vu
