Oops! Just posted on the old thread and it passed 1000 messages and died. Thought I had better start a new one quick!

The baby picture is identical to my 2 year old, which, I hope, means I fancy the pants off Lee because he looks very like DH (or would if DH went to the gym, grew his hair and lost 15 years). Anything else is wayyy to Freudian.

And agreed, they're gonna have to go a long way to beat the Now piccie.

I didnt want to say, but I thought it a bit cheesy too...

AnthillMob · 26/06/2007 15:09

Cheesy Lee pic, sat in Oggsfrog's living room here

AnthillMob · 26/06/2007 15:10

Sorry, forgot to say that's the Heat magazine pic. Someone needs to have a serious word with whoever made those bloody awful slippers.

BoingBoing · 26/06/2007 15:46

I know he said he was going to use some of his newfound wealth to replace his wardrobe but really!

You got it then Oggsfrog?? Wht did you think, was it ok?

AnthillMob · 26/06/2007 18:00

Slayerette, the Now pic is far superior to the Heat one. But there are childhood pics too in Heat. I'll post a link to them too, but later as I'm trying to feed my boys (much too late and they're starving).

LyraB · 26/06/2007 18:31

I'm back under my old name. Got fed up of AnthillMob.

LyraB · 26/06/2007 18:44

More Heat magazine pics

BoingBoing · 26/06/2007 19:20

That was a quick dinner, what did you do, force feed them?!

LyraB · 26/06/2007 19:37

No, had laptop at the table . I am a very bad mummy.

BoingBoing · 26/06/2007 19:49

It just shows you care. Some mothers would have left them at the table whilst going online!

oggsfrog · 26/06/2007 19:53

Lyra, yes it came this afternoon thanks again.

I first tried the cd. Brilliant. I've already copied it onto a cassette so I can listen to it in the car.

Then I tried the dvd, . It came up but wouldn't play past the intro and was very juddery.

Then I had a brainwave and remembered that you use a Mac, so the problem could be that I was trying to play it in Windows Media .

I switched to a different player and bingo. Up he came in all his glory

I'm totally in awe of your skill [awe emoticon]

I don't think much of the Heat spread.
The pics do not show him to his best advantage at all.
Whoever came up with the idea wants a good talking to.
All the potential opportunities..........(in a loincloth springs to mind ), and they give him those bloody slippers and a dodgy disco suit

BoingBoing · 26/06/2007 19:58

I'm getting so excited - I posted my cd & dvd to Lyra today. But now I hear there's going to be a postal strike . So God's knows when I'll finally get them. It'll be worse than waiting for Christmas.
But if it's MAC I'm gonna need some good advice on how to watch it on a pc!

LyraB · 26/06/2007 20:06

If there's any way you can download Quicktime to play the DVD on, that's probably your best bet. That's what I created it on.
Oggs, what did you watch yours on in the end?
It will also play on the TV in a normal DVD player but because the screen will be so big, the picture quality is likely to be poor as the clips are all very small files designed to be viewed in a small computer window, a la YouTube.

LyraB · 26/06/2007 20:07

Boing, when is the postal strike?
I PMed BethanyAnn on the other forum to see if she'd do me a copy of her DVD of the entire series but I've had no reply yet.

oggsfrog · 26/06/2007 20:08

Boing, don't worry, I've only got a bog-standard pc.

It just wouldn't play with Windows Media Player.

When I put in the disc a box comes up asking how I wanted to open it. I just selected one of the other players instead. I think I used Virtual Player something or other.

oggsfrog · 26/06/2007 20:11

Do you think they'll release the series on DVD eventually?

DD is unhappy because she wants to watch Keith again.

LyraB · 26/06/2007 20:11

Which bit did you like best? I'm most proud of the first menu screen with 8 clips playing at once. If I ever find anywhere to download more clips I might to another one but a bit different this time.

LyraB · 26/06/2007 20:13

I don't think they will do a DVD because of the whole copyright thing. They'd have to get permission for every song the boys sang and probably pay out huge sums for the privilege. I'd be really happy if they did though.

oggsfrog · 26/06/2007 20:14

I'm a sucker for "Paint it Black" and "New York, New York"

Just love his voice, it's so deep and rich.

BoingBoing · 26/06/2007 20:17

Do I get a sneak preview? Exactly what's on them?

LyraB · 26/06/2007 20:20

I did a list of what's on the dvd a bit further down the thread. There's about 20 of them so can't be bothered to type them all again
