You want a true project? Teach me photoshop. THAT's a project.

im afraid that i dont even know photoshop lol

MS Paint FTW!!!

everything that i have learned on photoshop and fireworks and even after effects, i have taught myself just by messing around and exploring. and ive learned lots by trial and error lol.

glad you like it. i enjoyed putting this one together. i got the chance to use some new brushes and skills that i just picked up.

trust me when you download it, you'll be like piece of cake

kk

well scott theres lots of tutorials all over the internet, and really, most of what i have learned is trial and error and just fuckin around with controls and commands for several hours seeing what i can do. and the occasional questions i ask while on gsc help me to learn new things :p

Yea, I downloaded gimp this weekend and have been working on my sig. It's not done, but so far, I'm liking where it's heading. At least with what I've got to work with. I'm having trouble finding good backgrounds to start with.

Personally when I make a sig, I tend to make my own backgrounds using the colours of the main image. Makes it blend in nicely.

well scott, i have been messing around with brushes, go ahead and give me a description of what your looking for, and ill try and make it. if you would like..

Trust me when I say it's far too much to ask for. I'll have lots of time in the next few days to play with it. I'll post here when I'm done, but what I have for now is a close up pic of a sun with solar flares as the background. Then I'm taking pics of my 4 main characters to place in front of them. Once that's all done, I'm going to search dafont.com for fonts that I feel represent each character best. It's busy, but I think it'll look good when it's all done.

cool, i cant wait to see what you have done.

also, just trying to draw attention to this thread again, seeing that we have many new members. just post here if you would like a forum signature, and ill contact you.

goddess thats tight. is it gif format to get it out of the box like that?

did john ever finish this project in gimp??


whine.. im so out of the loop.

ps. blake u have inspired me.

No, I've been really busy and my original files are on a different computer. Too lazy to go retrieve them.

glad hear that i have inspired someone lol. idk what it was exactly that first inspired me,but now i hope to go to a art school. :]

go for it, i chose to do the travel the world thing which ended up a short trip. great adventure but different one than i had in mind like 12 years ago... I think my art teacher was disappointed i didnt go to school for art... but i sold a few paintings and drawings here and there.. so I didnt completely fail. lol!

i just find inspirations that may or may not be related to the idea it inspires in my head for art... n stuff... im random.. or so john says. who apparently lazy.

can you make a sig for me ?

be glad to! i havent had any requests in ages! it may take a while, im incredibly busy with school right now. but ill try my best to get it done. hope to see you in game, so i can take some screen shots.

can you make a signature for me?

Uh, dude, you already asked that same f'n question and got a "Yes" response. How the hell did Blake's words, "be glad to!", go over your head?

Blake has to get a pic of you in-game so he can customize your signature to your actual main character's look. He doesn't just throw them together without any type of motivation or visual inspiration.

Okay, well i think I'm finally settling into school here. That being said, I can be in-game more, as well as start making some signatures for the forum. Soooo, if I cant catch you in-game for screen shots, take them yourself, and convert the file type to .png and post here. (The .png is important, so the file retains its quality.)
