It is nice though, what didi you use to make it?

Exactly, it is one thing to own an reproduction piece of art, but it is something special to own an origional piece of history.

It is very sad. For the home thearter, or dorm room, it is definatly a must have for me, i don't think i could live without it.

It seems kind of cool actually, wish I had the money to buy one

I'm kind of tiard of this discussion, so i will conceed to you, I shall continue to love vinal and will loook forward to a system that can easily duplicate an amazing copy. It may not be portable, but it is a thing of nostalgia and it will be around forever. Thank's for the interesting conversation, it was much fun.By the way, I checked out your site and love the artwork, great stuff.

Alright, I've been an avid Photoshop user for quite a while now, basically teaching myself (and so I don't really know everything that there is to know), but I'm quite good w/ effects and everything like that.  However, I'm wondering about drawing.

 

Specifically, lines.  I'm good at drawing like that in PSP, but Photoshop...I'm lost.  When I need to draw...I have to make shapes and give them colored borders...it's sad.

 

Anybody know (if they understand me) what I can do?

You want to use illistrator for crisp smooth lines.

thanks, hope that works.

It makes me really sad, I don't know if its an issue with my drivers or what. I can start the game, then when it gets to that first battle in the station the whole thing crashes.P.S. Not only is it upside down, its backwards, like it's been mirrored.

Actuallt vinyl last a long long time. I have records that are more than 40 years old that play perfectly. Like all media you just have to take care of it, infact they scratch less than cd's do. They are heavy, but with a decent dj bag it's no problem to transfer them without damage them.And no need for them in this world! What are you talking about? Anyone that likes turntableism if fight tooth and nail to disprove you. That's like saying there is no need for the film real or for traditional cameras. Why must the whole world be digital? Why then don't we do away with printed text and move on to an e-book society?Also vinal is cheap if you know where to look. I can get an album for $0.88 where as a cd costs about $15, a new album on vinal runs $12. If you download an individual sond from somwhere like I-tunes you pay $0.99 a song. Vinal is still cheaper.

No, it is not really the same thing. The fact is that it is impressive because of the age ant the fact that the prosess is very uniqe.

Right, but the fact is that this is something quite unique and it is atually on the vinal, not on a sheet of paper or done in ink on a cd. Once again, I am not a fan of digital media except film.

I understand, we have different views, for me there is nothing like holding a limited pressing of my favorite album, you it is just the music itself if I am correct.

if we are to continue this discussion, i recomend that we do so in the convert now topic, it has more premise there.

You always lose quality every step you go away from the origional.Can you hold your monitor and fold it open? Flip through your mharddrive to find that album that will amaze youe friends? Oh look I've got a copy of The White album, on my hard drive. Thats nowhere as impressive, or gratifying at that. as holding a piece of music history in your hand.Wear? I have albums dated back to the 60's and 70's that have seen there share of use, and they play like new, if you care for you music and clean your plarer's stylus reguraly you will have your music forever. What happens if your harddrive frys?

Here's a scan of the Styx album, not great quality, had to really mess around so you could see the etching. It's really low quality so it would upload, sorry, i might post it on my site when I get a good photo.

maybe it's not meant for noobs. but it rules once you know how to work with a computer.

even my mom uses it. i gave it an IE theme and she's not having any problems with it.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I wouldn't even say it's not meant for noobs. I qicked it up in like 30 minutes of fooling around with everything to master it, and I suck when it comes to learning ne software. It handles like a street bike compaired to the old moped that is IE.

Can't read anything, but great design. Unfortunalyt great looking dosent make up for inability to read. Keep working on that and it could be a 9 or 10.

I love GOA and House, I also like Bass, the new Daft Punk album is actually quite good, I strongly recomend listening to it. Its great programing music. I have A bunch of happy Hardcore, Tranve and Rave stuff if you want to do some trading.

Why give up the wonderful invention that is digital music? How about you are ruining music, you are not getting every thing when you listen to an MP3, you luse sounds that make a pressed vinal so amazing. Plus, know that hardcore group you love, you can't understand them too well can you? Try playing the same track on a vinyl, you can understand them. Everything that was ment to be there is there. And the overall sound is just super silky.Plus vinyl is waht made cover art amazing, not the cassett not the cd, vinyl. The size is perfect for gorgous designs. A few of my favorites are Alice Cooper's Schools out, looks like an old school desk, opens like one and even las legs that you can fold out of the bottom. Dead Kennedys Bedtime for Democracy, amazing art and it folds open to display like a poster. Same for Heart's Dog & Butterfly. But the best of all is Styx's Paradise thearter, not only is the packaging amazing, but the vinyl is amazing, there is actually an image etched into the vinyl (doesn't effect sound quality at all) as well as the band logo etched. Can your MP3 do that? Didn't think so.So string me up by my thumbs if you like, but not even a good cd recording, let alone a compressed digital media format, can hold a candle, or should I say flashlight, to the quality you get on vinyl.

NOOOO don't delete, those are what people can access on tour page.

Actually, I think most people use pc's because they can play games

I TunesBut i really don't listen to MP3's they sound like crap compaired to my perfered medium, vinal. Nothing sounds as silky smooth ans super sexy as a fresh vinal. If you take good care of them they last for ever. Plus vinal is waht made cover art amazing, not the cassett not the cd, vinal. The size is perfect for gorgous designs. A few of my favorites are Alice Cooper's Schools out, looks like an old school desk, opens like one and even las legs that you can fold out of the bottom.

I am a photoshop pro and also quite skilled with illistrator. Black and purple? I have a black and hot pink if thats what you mean. Check the forum out and give me some suggestiuons for my main page if you could. It's http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/
Thanks!

Forgot about them, I guess in my own personal exerience, when people who don't know macs usethem, they tend to need a lot of work, though if youre running Panther those issues don't really occure very often.
