That's Right, I'll Answer Even Not So Frequently Asked Questions!
If you send me a question, I just might post it and the answer here... but beware! I will copy and paste it, so all the typos will still be there! And if it's something too hard for me to asnwer I'll probably just find some way to make fun of you for it! (no offense intended... its all just silliness... you can make fun of me too if you want)

Q: I saw your hack of Metroid, and insidently I want to text that rom myself. How do you go about text hacking and what are some things I need to know before I should try to hack it?
A: You should know by now... CAN'T HACK METROID! Ahem... sorry... Well, first you need to hack the graphics to make the font you want. Then make a custom DOS font that matches up with the character tables for the text in the game. Print out an chart with the numeric codes for your font with your letters for easy reference before you get used to it. Then load the font into your DOS prompt and open the ROM with MSDOS editor. You should now see the text withing the ROM as it appears in the gaem, and can type your own text over it simply by holding down the alt key and entering gthe 3 digit code for each character you wish to type. Make sure you don't add or remove any characters from the file too. (ok, so not the easiest way... but it is how I started out back when I was working on FFII with Tomas, and early on in afew other ROMS... ahhh the good ol' days...)


Q: where can I find eskimo bob buddy icons?
A: Not a clue... I never made any... and I don't use AOL

Q: How do you keep your sound in sync with your action in Flash?
A: Just stream it and adjust it until t looks right... that's about it.


Q: How do you make a website????
A: Pay $200 per section to me to make it for you.


Q: How can you make such aloud burp? What do you do?
A: Basically you just swallow air and vomit it back out. Could have said burp it back out, but vomit just made it sound so much more appealing.


Q: Isn't is embarrassing going around dressed like mortal kombat people?
A: Yes, it's very embarrassing. It can be even more embarrassing when people you know see it! Fun too though.
