I got this off of PencilJack, it's perhaps the coolest website ever made ever ( Read more... )

Nah, I didn't improve, but thanks. My class purely deals with the technical side of using Photoshop and Illustrator, it has nothing to do with any art theory. I never shade with pencil, because it's too hard to get the tones I want, and I have a hard enough time just keeping a smooth line in Photoshop since I use a mouse, so this is just what I always could do, but didn't. Anyone who studies light and shadow (not me, that's for sure) would probably say it's a contradictory mess. Why am I rambling on about shading?

Anyway, I like your G.I. Joe card idea. That may be something I'll have to implement. I also liked how you said right now it sort of looks like Operation Wolf for the NES. That wasn't intentional, but I think an 8 bit game system design would be pretty fucking cool. Too many ideas. I don't know what tools you have at your disposal being at school, but if you want to work anything up for me to put on the site, or if you want your own sub-page, go ahead and do it and I'll upload it for you. You could just e-mail me your thoughts on a movie and I'll paste that in the news box as well. I'm kinda desperate for shit to post.

I checked my phone messages last night, did you get your FFXI issue straightened out? Because if not, I'll tell you what you need to do.

Thanks again for the artwork (and compliments!). I tried to stick as close to your line art as possible, so if you think it looks good, it's almost all you, just cleaned up a little and in color now.

I was wondering about that message. I still haven't gotten my FFXI shit done, any help would be appreciated. My inability to contact you by phone baffles me sometimes....but as long as you aren't forgeting your estranged friends, no worries.

I don't have access to any great technology here. My old Photoshop 5.0 is it. I can put pencil and pen to paper to make designs, but if you want it uniform at all, your would have to give it the Illustrator/dreamweaver treatment. I don't know if you would have the time for that while you are working on the front page shit. I'll put an operation wolf type picture together for myself, then I'll do a write up of fable as an article, how does that sound? Screw it, I'll do a picture of myself as a fable character and then the review/writeup. I've almost beaten it 3 times now. It's a bit like combining the elements of Penny Arcade into one article. I'm on it....Finally the Block is over!!!!

My inaccessability on the phone is very simple to explain. No one really calls me with any regularity, except for Suzy and work. Suzy knows my schedule so she knows when I can be reached, my job knows my class/work hours so they know when to find me as well. Since I don't get too many unexpected phone calls, I tend to leave my phone at home most days rather than risk it ringing in class. So basically, I never answer the phone unless it's a weekend evening, or really late at night on a weeknight.

For FFXI, if you read the user agreement it says that uninstalling the program will cancel your subscription, regardless of if you go through the process of an official cancelation. So what I'm saying is, just go ahead and uninstall everything and they will see your account termination and stop billing you.

Your Fable article sounds good. I'm open to anything. I've probably had three or four differnt site designs now I never put on-line because I hate them as soon as their done. If I have stuff people send me, I'd probably be more inclined to stick with something rather than piss people off by sitting on their shit for months.
