Thanks! :) It's a shame I had to resize them in order for Imageshack to accept them. On my laptop I have most of them in 3888x2592 resolution!

That's odd, I've never had problems with uploading high-resolution images to ImageShack. In fact, I uploaded one image (a scale diagram of the distance from the Earth to the Sun) with a width of 65,000 without a problem.

Perhaps you could zip them all and upload them to MediaFire? If so, the last one will meet my desktop.

Something about this guy seems a little bit... fancy. Just look at the grin on his face with his clasped hands, he could suddenly jump up and begin prancing all over the place.

This guy used to be the biggest troll in Europe, until he fucked it all up by saying that The Netherlands should go back to our own currency again, a step back from the Euro.
Yeah, the most retarded decision you can make, in a country that heavily depends on export.

No wonder why Netherlands is economically prosper, since centuries.

A new display and with 2 dead pixels? Damn, you need to claim for a refund or a trade.

I fixed the most annoying one on the side of the display (green) by rubbing the middle of the screen with my thumb. Funky screen I have!

The other is barely noticeable (red) as it still somewhat changes colour depending on the display. For example, you notice it best when the display is white. But when it's dark you barely even see it. So, long as I don't touch the screen too much, it shouldn't be a problem.

The problem with dead or stuck pixels is, while it's more common than you'd think, companies won't give you a refund so easily for having them unless your screen exceeds a set number of them. I don't know how many, but I really doubt that number is two. :/

P.S. There is a big difference between "stuck" and "dead". A stuck pixel may display one of the primary colours, and can still be fixed. But a dead one is always black because no light comes out of it. I believe dead pixels can't be fixed at all.

Honey, I live in Canada, where everything is far more expensive than its European counterpart. :mrgreen:
