Hey, everyone, i've found that when it comes to making cgi lego scenes, almost everyone is lost. And even the ones who aren't don't know how to make their stuff look completely photo realistic. There's a secret to making cgi lego scenes look like a photo, though. It's something that I learned, and never really thought of before.
Let me know if you want me to post a tutorial on it. 
I'm interested. I might try doing some CGI in the future.
Hm, I'd highly want to see this tutorial.
But I don't think that everyone who makes CGI Lego scenes makes them unrealistic. I know a fair amount of CGI users that can make realistic CGI Lego.
I'd like to see what you're talking about too (even though I don't know diddely about cgi).
id love to see this
People like Nick Durron or Lechnology are lost but you sir arent
Spread your wisdom

Excuse me? I'm not lost. I just don't like asking for directions, because I'm a man. 
But you take that back about Nick Durron.
Yes. I would love to see what wisdom you have after 3+ months of Blender inquiries.

Jeez its so hard to ensue sarcasm in interent posts
I was sarcastically saying that you guys are lost while he is obviously the smart one here
Sorry if it didn't catch on my mistake
im a cranky boy
I realize that you and nick durron are gods at cgi but he was stating that nearly everyone but him was lost soo i thought id use sarcasm to correct
back on topic please 
can we see said tutorial?
I was making a joke, pointing out the stereotypical male who is "lost".
ahh but of course
My fault for not catching on
Hey, guys, i'll make the tutorial as soon as possible.
When i first mentioned it, it was kind of unclear what the tutorial was specifically gonna be about, so here's what it's gonna have:
I'm gonna explain how to make a realistic lego cgi scene from start to finish using blender. I'm gonna go through why a normal render doesn't look real, and reveal the secret of making a photo-realistic scene. It will be more of an intermediate tutorial as far as blender goes, but I'll try to help out the beginners too.
So yeah, that's about it.
Unfazed by Lechnology's indirect comment the blender mastermind carries on
EDIT: Never mind...

*facepalm*
Please clarify. Do you mean how to insert a photo into your scene or do you mean how to upload your rendering online?
I have a sneak peek of the results, but I don't know how to insert a photo
can you guys help me out?
TinyPic. Upload. Copy URL for forums, paste in reply.
DONE.
How dare you, not helping this drowning soul?
Somehow, I have a sneaking suspicion that this isn't going to be anything special. I would be a bit more convinced if you had asked less basic Blender questions in the sort of recent past, and the fact that you didn't capitalize the word CGI.
