  1. Try to make you cry? Lol, you're the coolest Nguyen.Anyway, yeah, it's not bad at all. Just a few things...1. Coded Arms bro. :(2. The blending is a bit odd. He's transparent on the edges, but you can still see his outline, so it doesn't give the whole effect of him blending into the bg. Try brushing over the edges.3. Little too much brushing. Go over some of the outside parts of the bg with a black brush, and have the layer mod set to overlay. It'll add a bit more depth.4. There's not much to the sig. I mean, there's the bg, and the render, but nothing else. Maybe some tech or "style lines" would give it some flavor.5. Nice name placement. :(So altogether not bad, just not wow yet. Nice job though. :D


  2. [1]*snickers* Like you're gonna take advice from Michael.

     

    [2]I mean, are you trying to make your name sound like the weird...um...I think you know what I mean.

    [1]Nah...was just a joke. Mike couldn't tell me anything I don't already know. :D

     

    [2]I think he is.

    Can't raise warning level. :(



  3. Umm, can someone show me what that would look like? Michael sucks at explaining stuff...or I suck at interpreting stuff. Your call.

     

    Isn't Iron Man supposed to be dark-red? I have no idea who he is, but judging by the name, I think he is.

    [1] See bold.

    [2] Yep, he is. I recolored him. Looks nice, wouldn't you say? :D

     

    Here's a nice pic of the big guy:

    :(


  4. The forum layout is fine and dandy, but neither of us mods (me and you) have the power to create new forums. You probably saw my report in the staff, but any changes hasn't happened yet. :D

     

    Have you tried contacting Nils via IM?

    167635[/snapback]

    Yeah, I talked to Nils on MSN or AIM (I forget which) and he said he'd get to it in a few days, because he was having troubles with some lightning-fried computers, but I just pmed both him and OpaQue a newer updated version than the previous one, and even this last one here. So hopefully one of them will get to it sometime soon.

     

    And about the mods-can't-change-forums things, I know...I was gonna ask them about it. Although, I did also mention that if they don't have the time, they can just make me an admin for a short period of time so I can do it all for them.

     

    So hopefully we'll get the layout changes all done sometime today, and then we're pretty good to go with the crew, and a few other new secret stuff you guys might like. Just waiting on those modifications by the big guys. :(


  5. Kubi is nice enough to make you a sig, but in the future, please do not ask for sigs. Earn them. How? Post around in this forum a lot, so Brooks or Michael will surely see your posts. Then you'll get a sig.

    167637[/snapback]

    Nah...sig requests are fine and all, but -gift- requests are a different story. I know it doesn't seem like much of a difference, but a gift is a sig someone makes -for- someone else, whereas a requested sig is just making a sig because someone asked.

     

    I dunno...it makes sense in my head. :D


  6. Let me define it for you. :(

     

    A gift is something given to a person you like or a person who has helped you. You aren't supposed to ask for gifts, or you'll look stupid and conceited. The reason people give gift sigs is to return a favor or because they like a person. You want a gift sig? Prove your worth. If you want someone to make it for you, don't call it a gift sig. You could at least ask someone to make a sig for you, not ask for a gift. Those two are VERY VERY different. Even I have never recieved a gift sig (I made my sig).

     

    That was just to clear it up. I'm not upset at you or anything OK? :D

    167609[/snapback]

    Exactly. Gifts are something you earn. If you want to just request a sig, that's fine, but don't ask for a -gift-.

     

    Anyway, I wouldn't be able to do it for you...already have enough sigs to do for people. :(


  7. And here's my revised version, cause Mike's crazy.Combine the three forums under graphics and animations into one, because the other two (3d/advanced, and fireworks or whatever it is) aren't active, like, at all. Then make that forum a base forum under the category "Contribute". Then have subforums like this: Sigs -Showoff -Gifts -SOTW (Sig of the Week) -Tournaments -Battles (have the current battles in here) --Battle Requests --Finished Battles Tutorials (have the tuts in here) -Tutorial Requests Resources (have all the psds, brushes, renders, etc. here.) Other -Templates -Large Pieces -3d -Flash, etc. -Questions/RequestsT17 GFX Crew1. Get intial crew5-6 members2. Get a site devoted to the crew (This will be hella hard, and we won't need it for quite a while.)3. Bio topics (this may be a bit hard, because we'd be constantly updating it...) -stats -skills -# of tutorials -# of renders -# of templates -# of sigs -# of downloads -# of requests -# requests done -sig battle win/loss record4. Download (MAYBE. If the admins go through with it.)And Mike, you wrote the forum layout twice. X.x


  8. Oh...that's pretty cool. I love the automation-ness. But unfortunately, if I used it for my current gfx folder it'd also show my other stuff (gifts for people and such), which I wouldn't really want. And if I used a new folder I'd have to move all my sigs, which would screw up whatever links I have to them, or copy them, which would clog my site's space.But I guess it's okay, cause I'm fine with having just one sig. :D


  9. Tried to give it a glossy/glassy look...I think it's a little too small for the whole effect though. And it looks bad without the stroke. =/

    I think it looks better though, at least.

     

    Anyway, the only help we really need at the moment is what I said earlier:

     

    Oh yeah, if we let everyone who gets 6 votes in, how can we limit it to just five or six crew members, without doing the "first come first serve" method?

    And then once we figure that out we're all set to start up applications and stuff...

  10. thats would be funny we don't get accepted when we apply lol :(

    167417[/snapback]


    Yeah, it would be. I think you guys could manage without me though, if I weren't in. :D

     

    *tries to make a post in the root*

     

    ...why did you give Nils a bad layout?  :(

    167446[/snapback]


    Nils closed off that part, I didn't ask for it. But I made a request for an addition of a general/other photoshop part, where you can post other stuffs...there's a few other revisions to be made as well. The admins just have to get around to it.

     

    And great tag thingy truefusion...looks great, and the multicolor idea sounds good. We could even make them multicolored for us multitalented people. :(

     

    Oh, and I was gonna say something else...hrm...what was it...

     

    Oh yeah, if we let everyone who gets 6 votes in, how can we limit it to just five or six crew members, without doing the "first come first serve" method?


  11. Yeah, I know what you mean on the computer thing. If a computer doesn't have a good graphics card, then everything you see is bad quality.

    167441[/snapback]

    It shouldn't....it shouldn't have any effect on flat images...just 3d stuff. Unless you have like a 16-color 400x300 monitor or some ancient junk like that.

     

    On topic, people.
