i really hope no one takes offense... honestly, it's not that i'm out to start any conflicts around here... in my personal opinion, i think it's funny... if you don't, then, that's your opinion and i respect that...

this is pretty funny...1. go to google2. type in "failure"3. click "i'm feeling lucky"4. laugh

companies will partner up like that because they get "free" advertising that way... i hate it when they do that because they force you to have something you dont need at all....

LOL... i totally undersatand what you're talking about... i use a pc too, because macs are so expensive... i do really wish that i had a mac though... well, that and my mom refuses to let me have a mac in her house... shes a strict pc person because "pcs can do everything a mac can do and they have better operating systems" but she doesnt believe me that microsoft copied xp off of osx...

i like the sig you have right now... that one is also very nice and professional... i think that as far as graphic design goes, you need to express your style while you make your point across and you've got that... great job!

i think they are trying to compete with google in the email wars and also just to streamline their designs.... it looks a lot like the sbc layout/design....

does anyone else have any favorites? music videos are a digital art.... there's a lot of work that goes into them....

i think it's a great sig... the animation is kinda distracting... but it's very clean and professional... great job!

that may be true, but there's a time and place for it, and right after something like katrina happens, when people are too devestated to care if the president is racist or not is not the right time.... i think that now that the president has accepted responsibility for what happened, things will start to change, but not unless the people make sure they do.... it's OUR country, not just his....

well, i think that if you want a photoalbum to share your photos, just use flickr. my whole family is on it... it's so awesome....

i think that this is just turning into a big, unnecessary argument.... personally, i think that kanye west is a great musician, but his comments at that performance were also very unnecessary... this is a time when we need to stop pointing the blame and come together to fix things... its ridiculous how people get when tragedy occurs..

my mom got the ipod phone, which is funny because my mom is anti-ipod because they're made by apple.... LOL... pretty much, its just a cell phone with an MP3 player... i'm not sure of all the spex, but i'll post them as soon as i do.... as far as the new NANO goes, i've got my eyes set on the black 4gb.... it's so pretty................

california is one of the worst places as far as cellphone related accidents and neither regular use or hands-free use is illegal... i dont condone either though... it's a total distraction and for those who say its the same as if there was someone else in the care, you're wrong... a passenger is another set of eyes that will warn you if you're about to hit something....

i'm not sure, i had a bad experience with openoffice once and since i've always used Microsoft Office (even as a kid) i'll have to stick with that... i don't know if im just stubborn or what....

i've seen some pretty weird stuff on the internet.... threebrain.com has some pretty weird, but hilarious animations... i saw a video clip of the sunroof on a car cutting off a cats head.... that was weird... i agree with a lot of people about ebay and weird people and things they sell....

i was forced by my mentor to get a myspace. being a very shy person, i'm not very big at networking. but he made me get one so that i could get myself to start networking and get myself out there. being a graphic designer, you have to learn to put yourself out there for people to take. that was almost two years ago, and now, i cant stay off myspace. it is very addicting. there are so many things to it, the music aspect, the blog aspect, the profile adjusting... i've met two very influential people to me (my favorite pinup photographer and my favorite gigposter artist) through myspace. meeting the latter was one of the best times of my life... but thats a different story. My point is, myspace has so much to offer, even if it is trendy and a way for all the scene kids to go and look cool.

hey, thanks for that! im totally going to sign up now....

content is very important... i forgot to add that in my original post...

sounds good.... anyone should feel free to hit me up with a teaser.... LOL....sickgrrl723@hotmail.com

i'm kinda bummed that more people haven't responded. i thought this would be a really cool topic for people to discuss music videos, which i think is a really cool form of digital art. hence the placement.... i don't know... i guess i just got my hopes up.... at least silvercoke replied... thanks for that... i like that video too....

are there any drawbacks to GMail? i keep hearing all these great things about it, but never any drawbacks... i get really tired of people always changing their emails and im fairly happy with the one i have now... if im going to change, i need to know the pros and cons of it....

I used FP a little when i first started getting into web design. it's simple enough with the drag and drop scheme. but when i realized that if i was going to get anywhere doing web design, i needed to learn HTML. I started teaching myself HTML through Dreamweaver through the split HTML/preview mode. so i could see how HTML works. I still use the split viewing mode because i find my mistakes easier that way. I will admit, i was a little frustrated and intimidated when i started using DW, simply because i really had no idea what i was doing. But after time, i gradually got the hang of things and once you do, it's really a simple program. there are a lot of components to it, but you dont need to learn all of it to design a good website...

id have to agree with most everyone when i say that imageready is the best program for animated gifs. if you have photoshop, you have imageready, and you can easily jump into imageready from photoshop without having to search for it in your apps. i've never used fireworks, but im sure its good, considering it's a macromedia program, and i have heard great things about it... but im a creature of habit so, i usually stick to photoshop and imageready. imageready is also a great program to begin design for websites.....

this has two sides to it... a good side: the programs will be much much much easier to use together, more available to people to learn the programs, and the cost in the programs will go down due to lack of competition. the bad side is that now that Adobe is becoming so huge, that there is a possibility that it might develop this huge monopoly over the market. that would really suck is microsoft bought out adobe, but then again, its a possibility- they freakin own everything else....

i totally saw that tonight show episode with the dude that googlewhacks... it was pretty funny...
