Q: I'm looking to install a file sharing progam such as limewire, bearshare, ect to download mp3s with. I had bearshare on my old computer but I got a ton of spam and viruses with it. Is limewire any better? I really don't want to screw up my new computer. Any suggestions?

i'd recommend Ares, personally. i've had a good experience with it.

just go to google, type it in, and it's the first one that pops up. (:

Q: Does anyone know of any really good books? Because i

i'd recommend anything by nochloas sparks. my favorite is "message in a bottle". and some of his books have sequels, too.

i also love "the summer i dared" by barbara delinsky. it's a love story, and sort of a mystery. but it's an awesome book.

anyway, i'd recommend going to borders or target and looking their best selling section. i always find amazing books there. (:

Q: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=64536mo&s=1

how do you do this? have a black and white picture and then a spot with color?

i have photoshop. but i just dont know how to do this.

1. open the picture you what to color spot.
2. destaurate it. [make the whole thing black and white].
3. then, go to the brush tool.
4. invert the back and white boxes and the bottom of the toolbar on the left. example, if black was on top, then flip it to white on top and black on bottom.
5. using the BRUSH tool, color over the parts you want colored.

anything else, just ask. or if i didnt explain this very well, haha. i'm no pro at photoshop, but i consider myself pretty good. (:

Q: Okay my friend has a picture on her aim buddy info..and if i copy and paste it, it works on my profile too but i don't want that picture. how can i get a picture on my aim profile?

first upload the picture you want to tinypic.com. make sure it's small enough to fit in your profile though, of course.

then use the "direct link for layouts" link they give you, and go to edit your aim profile. right click whereever you want it to go and down at the bottom, it has "insert image". just paste the url and voila (:

Q: Does anyone know any love songs by some emo/alternative bands that is slow and kinda relaxing. thanks

hey there delilah- plain white t's.
so much- the spill canvas.
sunsets and car crashes- the spill canvas.
brightest- copeland.
wonderwall- oasis.
those are the ones i can think of off the top of my head.

Q: I was wondering does anyone know any songs
about a close friend who is treating you like shit lately, and is blowing you off for a boy,
either will be fine.

Or just any good songs about friendships dying.

thanks

i'm in love with family force 5's song "drama queen". it's about just that- a drama queen. they're punk, so it works if you're into that sort of stuff. (:

Q: i'm going school clothe shopping soon and i was wondering what styles were "in" if someone could give me some pointers...(link/pictures would be awsome) thanx

i guess you're a girl.

don't follow trends. dress how you want. be unique.

but if you really want, try wet seal. it's trendy but not too rediculous, like most trends i've seen.

Q: sometimes my interenet explorer works and sometimes it doesn't. i have wireless internet and even when it says i'm connected and good signal strength and what have you, it still won't display any pages. mozilla firefox and AIM work perfectly. any help?

rebooting & using the repair tool doesn't work. thank you for trying though.

retype it in ENGLISH and don't use "2" for "to" and all that. jsut type it NORMALLY. explain the situation.

then someone will help you.

Q: ive ben dating this guy for a long time about a year and one day my boyfriend and my bff were hanging out my bff said go buy us some pizza so i left to get the pizza when i came back with it the door was locked so i went in the back door and when i came in i didnt see then i looked in the hole house ecsep her bedroom so i went in her bedroom an they were both naked having sex.what should i do about my friend and my boyfriend?

that's an extremely bitchy thing of your friend to do. i would never talk to her again.

although, you shouldn't be the one to run around doing things for them or even leaving them alone in the house. that probably wasn't the smartest thing to do. it sounds like your boyfriend took advantage of you being gone and being with your "friend".

i'd never talk to either of them again. that's absolutely rediculous.

Q: I download fonts at www.dafont.com but when I want to use them, I always have to open up a folder and find a font that I want to use. Is there a way just to get the font on the list of fonts right when I'm on the program so I don't have to always search for it and open up all these folders?

all you have to do when you install a font and it's there by itself in windows explorer (after you extract the file or unzip it or whatever you have to do to it), click "move folder" and then go to my computer, local disk, windows, then put it in the "fonts" folder. (:

Q: Hello. Ok so i want to re-do my room. I want it to look different. I already know i'm going to have one wall with newspaper on it.

something like this:
http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r161/ambiepie13/room1.jpg

i like color too and i like the way this room looks:
http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r161/ambiepie13/room2.jpg

But i'm having trouble putting it all together. Like what wall color to use because i don't think i want it white.

Any ideas?

thanks for reading

-amber

well, what i would do is somehow dye the newspapers all kinds of different colors. that it can still be colorful but you get the newspaper wall that you want.

and i agree with the other person- get a whole bunch of colorful stuff to decorate with. such as like bright colored beddings and sheets in all different colors. and if you have like a desk or vanity or a piece of furniture that you can paint, paint it a bright color.

hope i helped (:

Q: 14/f i start high school in august. i wanna try out for the freshman soccer team, so what do i need to work on and what do i need to be able to do by the time tryouts begin? how long is the usual soccer practice, and what do you have to do? how many miles would a girls' freshman team have to run each day?

i'm a senior on our school soccer team so hopefully i can help (:

first and probably most important is running. you have to be able to run for long periods of time. (of course, it's not like an hour straight, there are times when you're not running. but you know what i mean.) usually our practices are two hours, sometimes more. also, you might want to choose what type of position you think you'd do best at- offense or defense. offensive players have to run more (at least in high school ball, but they're crucial positions because they score most of the goals. equally important though are defenders. they don't usually run as much, and they're more physical (rough) because they have to keep opponents from scoring, obviously. so begin to think about that and then look up positions & tips for those positions on google.

as for as a set amount you'll have to run, i have no clue. it all sort of depends.

anything else, just send me a question in my inbox. (:

Q: 16/f
My boyfriend and I had sex. His parents found out, how they found out is a long story that wouldn’t mean much to you. Anyways…to the point; I have never been so embarrassed in my life. Does anyone have a story, about their parents or this partners parents finding out, to share with me, so I don’t feel so dumb? Or any story at all that is. It’s silly I know, but I need something that helps me know... I’m not the only one whos parents have found out. Thanks :)

one of my friend's parents [her dad impaticular] found out she & her boyfriend were doing the deed. apparently, her boyfriend & dad smoked cigars sometimes [even though he was underage, haha]. so her dad went out to the boyfriend's car to get one, and found condoms. haha.

Q: 15/f

me and a 4 other friends, want to go stay up at cedar point. our parents are going to be there too, but they would go into a hotel, and we'd get a little cottage. i'm thinking about guys too, [they wouldn't be in the same cottage as us or anything] so anyways, is it really fun? we'd get that little cottage right on the lake. i live in florida, and i've alwayyyss wanted to go cedar point. i heard its really cool there. is it? i have the choice of going on any little vacation i want with my friends for my bday. and i dont know, ive never been to cedar point, and i just really want to go. lol. so what do you think? is it fun?

it's definitely fun. it's my favorite amusement park, by far. there are TONS of roller coasters. i believe they have the most of any amusement park in the world, if not, in the US.

and i know you want to stay in a cottage on the lake, but instead, you might want to try the great wolf lodge. they have an indoor waterpark with slides and all kinds of stuff. it looks pretty neat, even though i've never stayed there. my friend has and she said it was awesome. you & your friends could get a suite, and then your parents could stay in a normal room or something, haha.

here's a link to the lodge:

Q: where's the perfect place to watch a sunrise in new york city?

i dont know if you can go to the top of the empire state building that early, but that would be a good place. and the place the person below me was talking about it south street sea port, i believe. i don't live in NYC, but i've been a few times and that's one of my favorite places.

Q: What is the song that Allie plays on the piano in The Notebook? When they're in the old house

thank you!

when noah is trying to kiss her and stuff she says something like "now how am i supposed to play chopsticks when you're doing that" or something along those lines.

but i really have no idea other than that.

bio

hiii! i'm caroline. i'm eighteen years old, and just started my freshman year of college. i have a magificent boyfriend who i love more than anything. we've been together over three years. he's also my best friend. speaking of which, my other best friends are also pretty fantastic. another huge part of my heart is devoted to god. he's blessed me with so much more than i deserve, and even though i fall short on a daily basis, he's still there for me, every step of the way. i'm a pretty simple girl- i love anything fun, texting, being outdoors, swimming, playing soccer, frisbee, or watching football, spending time with my family, and most of all- living my life to the absolute fullest.

to be frank, i'm not going to answer your questions about girl drama or pregnancy, because i have no experience in either of those categories, nor do i want to listen to you whine about how "we didn't use a condom" or "she's such a &*^#%!!!!". however, i'm totally open to anything else. drop something in my inbox and i'll get to it pretty quick- i'm quite the net nerd (:
