jickyeung I guess that your audio content is in high quality and/or you have used bitmap images in your animation. For audio, you may consider to tune down the quality to achieve a smaller file size. Audio editors like Audacity should help. For images, you better...

books

magazines

reading

jickyeung I read magazine when I am in a salon, waiting for the stylist. In leisure time, I prefer reading books. I usually borrow books from library instead of buying. But no matter for book or magazine, I cannot read with their electronic form as I found myself unable...

What can you buy with the 10$-myLot-payout in your country?

cornyman @cornyman (1128) • Germany 28 Nov 08

When i get the 10 $ then it would be around 7,50 to 8,00 Euro (Germany, Europe), therefore i could - buy one pizza and a coke in a restaurant or - watch 2 cinema-movies in the early afternoon - buy one of the McValue-Meals...

jickyeung Hi youetme. It sounds strange that your friend has 100 thousand yuan to buy a house, but doesn't have 5000 yuan for decorating the house. In my opinion, she seems to have some problems in managing the use of money. If you really lend her, she may not give you...

jickyeung I have been giving money to mum (or better say, the family) since working. I believe that this is what we should do. Our parents have spent so much on us, no matter time or money. When they get old, we should try our best to take up the responsibility to make...

jickyeung Sometimes. If I like a song I'll try to make myself understand the lyrics as well, not just listening and singing it. But the bad thing is, sometimes even if I read the lyrics, I don't know what it means. puzzled!

Shar19 @Shar19 (8231) • United States 13 Feb 09
