not that hard guys

Thanks woopidoo :) Woop you can join our shop if you want :anxious: I didn't get any of those stock photos, so i dont know where they came from, they were submitted to me in my shop. But when i get my own, i usually just google around till i find something \ Thanks cad :) Fonts never been my strongpoint, always looking for ways to make it better

Not bad, but the font on the buddy list is to spaced out.

The only problems I see are that the wood on the left seems to smooth compared to the rest of the sig, and the text doesnt fit well. But over all good job. =D>

Thanks :) Ya I see what you mean about the dewdrops, I actually posted a set of pics not to long ago that focused on dew drops on leaves and such (can prob find them in the link in my sig). My parents say the same thing about originality, I just really like the vibrant colors that you find usually only in flowers, thats why I try to steer that way, and also, the camera that I use isn't the greatest and when ever I try to take photos that aren't macro, they tend to not turn out very well. (Don't actually know if this is the camera, the lenses, or just something I'm doing wrong). Nah I don't develop them, I take my rolls to Walgreens, and just get them put onto CDs then just copy them to my comp. (BTW, I've had so many problems with them of things not turning out right that was their fault :evil: ) Thanks for the comments, and thanks also the the c/c, I'll try working on originality among other things.

I like version two alot more, never been a fan for the sepia overtone feeling.

Thanks :) haha ya thats a weird flower.... Added a couple more. Navy

Went to a aurboretum/botanical garden with my girlfriend today: Theres some other realllly good ones, but I can't post them because my girlfriend is in them. (no rl picture rule) I apologize to mods for not posting thumbnails. Don't think you can with photobucket. Navy

by rose do you mean this one?: I think they are fallen leaves... but ya thats my favorite too :) Thanks for the comments guys :D I might make a tut on how i do my manips... but then again i might not :P

Really the only thing i can see that looks a little weird to me is the hair on the left side after it extends from the head, it just seems way to thinned out way to much. Thats really all i see thats even the slightest bit wrong. (oh and im guessing the shirt says alexisonfire?, i should get a cookie or something :D )

I just decided to post my latest manips so some of you that don't browse the bazaar can see what I've been doing lately. Anyways here they are: Navy (oh and you can probaly expect some new photos from me sometime tomorrow)

No other comments other then that is awesome man, gj so far!

for the people that dont know http://www.icecreamusa.com/klondike/video.asp ("what would you do for a klondike bar?" adds) And nice idea, pretty funny, try to make alot more!

One thing that i have always thought was that the position of the woman in the background is a little odd, I dk, I think its something about the way her legs are positioned. Can't wait to see it done because the original was already amazing.

I gave you plenty of c/c and you threw it back in my face, if you don't want it, don't ask for it. And you claimed that I didn't look at all of them. I looked over everyone one of them carefully, apparently you are the one that didn't read through my whole post because you totally incorrectly quoted me on half the things I said. You claim this is a bad forum for GFX, but we know what is art and what isn't, and if you 'rap forum' told you that this was good art, then apparently they are they bad forum for GFX. So if you wan't to live in a fantasy world and not face the cold hard facts then return to your uneducated, women degrading forum and keep your trash out of this forum.

Are you looking for a fixed lens or an SLR? If your really into photography, I would suggest an SLR. But at 600 bucks, you could buy the body but really not any lenses. On eBay, you can buy a Nikon d70s (the body, 3 lenses, some filters, 1 soft carrying case, 1 hard carrying case, a tripod, and some other accessories) for about $1100. This is what I'm going to eventually do (or maybe by the Sony alpha...idk). But if you just want a fixed lens, I can't really help ya there, don't know prices or anything on them.

Sorry to be harsh but this is just my opinion: -Bad backgrounds -Bad renders -Bad fonts -Badly blended on some of them -Horrible choice of people They need some borders, and the ones have have borders, dont just make it 3 pixels wide of solid color. Blend the renders into the backgrounds better. Right now they look like they are sticking off of the background. Use some better fonts, some of them I can't even read because they are to gangsta for me. In the 's.i.c.k.' sig, I don't understand why you have that cross under the letters sick, that cross is usually iconic to things like ambulences, help, ie the red cross. Yet in your sig it is next to the words 'crhyme' and 'killaz'. Not to mention your butchering the english language. You could also blend the fonts better as well as picking new ones. They seem to 'stand' off the background like the renders. The only one that I think in my mind is decent is the second one, but thats just IMO.

Thanks for that info :) , i added it into the tut

Ah yes, sorry, i fixed it. And thankyou for pointing that out.

Lowering file size without drastically lowering quality Using Photoshop CS2 (this tut assumes you know the very basics of photoshop) 1.Open the file into photoshop IÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢m going to use this sig that I made for Booduz (its 51k) 2. Now go to File> Save for Web and it will bring up this box: 3. Now extend the quality box and move the slider bar (highlighted in red) until the file size (highlighted in green) suits your taste: 3.b. Or instead of adjusting the file size by the quality bar, you can click on the arrow (highlighted in yellow) and click 'Optimize to File Size', you can then set the file size you want the image to be: 4. Continue saving, by clicking save and naming your file. 5. ThatÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s it, youÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢re done, and yes it was THAT easy! Finished Product: Original (51k): Reduced file: (29k) There was practically no quality loss. And it can go even lower that that with barely any quality loss, here the sig is at 20kb: Heres another example that i resized for bam: Original (30kb) (14kb!!)

Dude i love it :shock: but maybe thats cuz im part science geek, and wanna be a geneticsit :-$

Theres something about the first one that i dont like but im not quite sure about it :?: But i really like the second one, good job. =D> If you wanna join our manip shop, you can pm me if youd like.
