Topic: Art / Whats the Best Program or Software to Create Images?

sighs

Why don’t people read my sticky?

Anyways, pirating Photoshop is illegal.

GIMP is roughly the free open source and quite dumbed down version of Photoshop in terms of usability. Paint.Net is an advanced version of MSPaint.

Althought for “creating” images, you probably would want a tablet to go along with any of the above programs. Most of us manipulate images digitally by recoloring, displacing, adding text, using filters, etc. Not many create pieces from a pure blank canvas.

Nothing beats trying something new :)

Proper gradient mapping means setting the opacity to a very low level, like 5-25%.

My issue with Kongai cards and Kreds is:

Kreds will also give you first-in-line access to the new sets we’ll be releasing soon.

I don’t feel like that’s a good idea, vague as it is.

I think what it means is that they will release the sets as normal card challenges, but those with kreds can buy them first. It doesn’t mean that those with kreds will be able to get it before everyone else does, just that they can buy what they want before everyone else gets the cards.

Meh…. >.>

Still ask aldrin, I can’t draw that well.

EDIT:

What is with all the ninja posts!

Anyways, that is very nice doom. The render could be blended a bit better into the background and some sense of foreground added, but its not bad at all. :)

EDIT: @ Juice

Yay Yummy

Too much to fit all of that into a 44*44 image? The fancypants guy would be miniscule, and I am quite certain protected by copyright so I can’t use it. Same goes with the background. Shift 3 could use it because the makers asked Fancy Pants’ creator for it. >.>

Your better off asking aldrin, I can’t do such a complex avatar and definitely lack the tools needed.

And yea juice, share some fonts plx!?!?!

Topic: Art / Were is all the Art in the Art Forums [Rant]

Art is the process or product of deliberately and creatively arranging elements in a way that appeals to the senses or emotions, especially beauty.

So yea, digital art has taken over. None of use are all good painters or drawing artists or what not. There is also a very low chance of someone asking for a very specificly done hand drawn piece of work (and in my opinion, this type of works deserves to be paid for). The problem is that Reaper Graphix started the whole Graphics Group thing and no other group has been as successful. I had originally planned for an intergroup competition but of course it will not happen until other groups band together and become more active.

The definition of art differs from person to person and understandably, there are a lot of people who still lack a good set of skills to make good pieces of work digitally, be it avatars, signatures, banners and whatnot. The biggest problem is that there are only a handful of good artists here diluted by those lack of skill (urm, no offence intended, just pointing out the reality), so rarely do you see good pieces of work.

Anyways, I probably will be taking a lot of pictures when I take my break to go overseas, so maybe you’ll see some photography from me in maybe 2-3 months. :)

Hello Tom.

The biggest and most glaring problem I see is the color. Its too monotone. Add in some red and yellow and different hues of orange. The effect in the background is kind of good, but the monotoneness of the image kills all sense of depth and interest. The light beam in the middle should affect everything around it somehow. That includes the render.

The text has to go. Flow is gone, etc etc.

I can see some sense of depth (yea you can get very lucky and inadvertedly create depth), but horribly ruined by color. Learn to gradient map properly :)

Whoo landslide victory. >.>
