Thanks I got the the problem Solved! Just one thing though.
The Grass seems very "unrandom" because I couldnt find the Make Real Modifier anywhere.... I googled it up, and I think I did everything right as far as to try getting the make real modifier to show up, but nothing....
Thanks though

It's not a modifier. In the 3dview window, it's under Object->Clear/Apply->Make Duplicates Real

Here is my result without a random rotation (took too long to convert into real objects)
A little dissapointing to say the least, but its a start.... Tell you the truth, doesnt even look like grass imo... lol

Tanner, looks really nice! Great start! Is each blade of grass a separate mesh? If so, you might want to consider a slightly different approach, similar to this one:
http://www.indigorenderer.com/joomla/fo ... sc&start=0
which uses planes and alpha-mapped textures. This will reduce the geometrical complexity of your scene (fewer meshes, and the plane won't have to be subdivided nearly as much.
