You guys remember the controversial wallpaper that CG mod had to pull because its user base was getting more "diverse"? Meaning women were downloading them?
I happened to see that wallpaper pic in my gallery recently, and I was looking closely to see if I could figure out if this pic was photoshopped or if someone paid these girls to wear the CM t-shirt. [And honestly, that was why I was looking closely. ]
But this shot looks so well done, that unless I had a larger resolution to confirm, I would say they actually paid models to wear the t-shirts. But wasn't sure. Anyone have any idea?
Sorry that this is off-topic, I just felt compelled to ask. If a mod wants to delete this post, feel free.

Different hairstyles, and the goalie wears a different shirt...
Its was actually around before the CM guys photoshopped the CM logo on their tits.

Really? I remember thinking when I first saw it a few months ago "are they all sisters?". And now, knowing this, I would say that the"artist" was pretty good. Getting the lighting, shadows, etc., to blend naturally as it does, takes a bit of skill. ...Plus, its hot too.

That group of people probably have good intentions but are in error. The Bible also cautions us about speculations as well which can cause more harm than good and in most cases mislead others. I think this is one of those "speculations."

Agreed. But I expect that from someone that lives their life according to a fictional book. The education system has failed us in the US and these primitive sky wizard worshipers are a prime example of what happens when you don't pay attention in school. Instead of warning our kids about drugs we should be warning them about crazy sky wizard worshipers because they are the real threat to their future and the future of humanity as a whole.

Yeah but if it is a Vibrant chances are his location services will fail him and have him in the wrong time zone so he will miss it anyway. And he can't call you to check up on the time either because he doesn't know about the mute and un-mute trick you have to do to be heard. Bad news all around if the all mighty sky wizard uses a Vibrant!
Its hard for god to begin the judgement day coz of the time zones on earth and lol good pic..

Yes this may never work, but currently at the end of my shift at work, and I started thinking what would really show people what's going on behind the scenes with Apple suing HTC and Samsung. And this is the idea that I came up with, with the idea that it probably would never work, but hey its just a thought lol.
We've seen HTC comparing itself to Samsungs GSIII, just trying to compare itself. What if HTC and Samsung did it together with Google as the head supporter of Android, with a headline of something around, "Apple's run scared, attempting to ban these phones from you." Or "Meet the phones that Apple is terrified off..." Something in that sense to stir up curiousity and interest in. And on my mind, YMMV, I picture the OG EVO commercials with the Andrioids flying around the phone and showing it off with quotes from reviews.
But in the end, a for more info go to here, to show the potential customer what is going on since none of Apple's lawsuits are very big in the news unfortunately.
Obviously HTC and Sammy fans don't get along too well, but the Android OEMS seriously need to stick together for some time if they're ever going to have a chance if Apple keeps chipping away at them with court.
Reminder, this is just my personal opinion, but please share what you think of it. Or what you would add / change because I'm curious of this would ever be a true way to really give Apple some SERIOUSLY BAD PR, or if I'm just some nut case, who needs to get a job with daytime hours lol.

I work nights as well and I sometimes wonder if I am crazy bc my ideas make so much sense. I really like your idea. But any revenge on apple right now seems good to me.
Apple will always have their hardcore followers. No matter how much better my EVO LTE is the hardcore apple-ites will say Apple has better blah blah blah. And they will inevitably say "that's the phone that violated all the apple patents!" *snarl/*
Anyways, I like your idea. Don't think it's gonna happen though.
You know the iPhone's use of google maps generates 40% of Google's income? And now that Apple is deciding to make its own map app to replace Google maps as the default in iPhone it seems like an all out break in the companies.
Apple isn't innovating anymore, all they're doing is filing stupid patents and suing. They'll probably win because they are on top and have the $ to pay lawyers where other companies don't.
Sorry about the rant, I usually post on android central. Come here to check out the mods and roms so I don't post much.

I don't know what the percentage is but I bet it's a good amount, much more than 2% but no where near 40%.
"Mobile ads associated with maps and location data account for about a quarter of all mobile ad revenue. That's money Apple wants and Google doesn't want to lose out on."
http://www.businessinsider.com/wsj-apple-will-ditch-google-maps-on-ios-later-this-year-2012-6
It would be a much bigger blow if Apple were to get rid of Google search all together but I do feel the maps thing will put a bit of a dent in Google's bottom line.

The first article I read did not make it abundantly clear what part of google it was. They are just estimates too. Because even tho we are talking about iPhone users they will still be able to figure out how to use Google maps

I agree, I'm just saying it's going to sting a bit at Google. Hopefully it might help them get on the manufacturers and carriers a bit more to make sure they're selling quality products, I love Android but some of the stuff that gets put out there is absolute crap.
I know this thread has gotten off topic so I say to the OP, that might help if Google were to advertize. They make almost all their money off of ads but don't advertize themselves. The carriers do advertize phones a bit but they're more interested in selling you on their network than a specific phone. Not to mention the fact 3 of the 4 national carriers sell the iPhone so they wouldn't put down one of their own products.
Yeah, just came up with 40% off the top of my head because I was smoking crack.

Lol at least someone understands where I'm coming from. I doubt this will ever work but it was just an idea at the time.
But overall, I feel Google needs to help the OEMs stick together, for some amount of time, just to make it harder for Apple to try to make its dream of shutting Android down. Yes it would be hard, but on their current path, they may get their chance.
I laughed at some of the comments, but I guess the question I was trying to get around to ask,
Do you think google and the OEMs should make commercials with Google as the headliner to tell the world what Apple is suing about? I think if the overall general public knew, besides us tech enthusiasts , maybe people would see Apple for who they really are...
Just my two cents, and go!

I agree, that's why I never suggested the carrier's to make the commercial because they don't want to have conflicts I suspect, and they only care to sell, regardless the product.

This is actually what I've been hoping would happen for quite a while. It's much easier to pick them off one by one than to attack a united front. Unfortunately the all-mighty (dollar, euro, whatever) always wins out. If the manufacturers and Google could put aside their differences and come together and attack Apple, I think Apple would be forced to back down. For the first time in 4 years Android's world-wide usage dropped last quarter. It only dropped about 0.6% (from, I think, 51% to 50.4%) but a drop none the less. Symbian had over 50% of the market 4yrs ago, now it's dead. "Those that fail to learn from history, are doomed to repeat it" -Winston Churchill

Lumiya app is a new Second Life app on Google play. The difference between this app and previous SL clients is that it provides complete 3d graphical immersion. I was skeptical since SL is a NOTORIOUS GRAPHICS HOG. But the app was only about $3.00, the reviews were impressive, and I wanted to stress test this big ole gnotes cpus and ginormous screen. The short - it works. The gnote chewed up the graphics without so much as a sputter. I'm not saying that you should run out and buy the app. It still has bugs, for example, I was unable to move my avatar through the scene during my initial test. That said, the developer seems to be very active and given the software miracle accomplished so far I consider the $3.00 well spent... So if you feel like puttering around SL on your gnote or you just want to feed your Iphone friends growing since of inferiority (I guess the ios platform isn't yet "fragmented" enough for non apple innovation ) then check it out.
*Hey I'm just joking about the ios thing, I mean it is true; thats what makes it funny, but that doesn't mean it's okay to kick an iphanatic when he's down; it's just not cool.

Agreed, assuming the "?" was short for "people still play Second Life?"
That's probably a reasonable assumption, with regards to the "?"
But, I can say, it makes a great talking point when discussing phone capabilities with either blackberry or ios users. You see, they don't know they don't want SL, all they know is that they can't have it.
All joking aside, what I find impressive is that I can run "gaming" software on my...android phone, that will choke and kill an old Laptop from just a few years back.
I enjoy synthetic benchmarks as much as anyone. But this is a (however limited) real world application that tells the tale of how far this tech has come.

A couple months ago word broke that HTC was looking to break into the phablet market and today those claims are resurfacing again from numerous mobile tech sites. Specs include 1080p 5' screen and a quadcore S4 chip along with its own scribe pen. Do you think HTC can make a splash in this market, should it have sense or vanilla android and what specs do you want to see?

They just changed Sense for the better in Sense 4.0, and soon in Sense 4.1 which will improve on Sense further.
Edit: We also already have a thread about this somewhere with actual news posted.
