[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]I'm sorry it ended up so small, to get the smooth transitions i had to make it a smaller banner. [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23704&stc=1[/IMG][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]I'm a 13 year old kid and i've already been exposed to it. Until this year i was totally against it. But at the moment the drug was right there, so it wouldn't hurt if i took a few hits. I realized later that i hated it. Keep in mind that i've heard the stories about how bad it is and everything. It was just there, and me being a stupid little kid was curious. That was about a month ago and i'm so glad i didn't like it. I now see a couple of my friends do it and i'm starting to realize if i really want their lives getting exposed to drugs that are later on going to be harmful to their health. I'm working on my friend to quit, but he's not doing it to act "cool". He's doing it for the high.Since i'm at the stage of peer pressure already it wouldn't matter if it was legalized or not because kids are still going to get their hands on it anyways. But i do believe that we should keep it illegalized because it's actually getting a lot of kids in "Anti-Drug" mode. But who knows if my opinions change when i enter my high school years.

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]I hang out with everyone. No enemies what-so-ever. Except for maybe the occasional "I'm a gangster wanna fight" kid. They push me to the edge. I'm a really loud, hyper kid, but i am also a lot smarter than my friends. With me it's all about having fun. If you don't learn to enjoy life then get out of my way. I guess you could call me an all out punk. I also love the ladies. Haha, If you don't get along with me then you must be crazy. If people would describe the people i hang out with they would just probably say that i hang out with the popular/punk crowd. The only people that i hate are the people who refuse to participate in P.E because of their physical appearance and just people who are overall self conscience about how they look. They just bring themselves down with comments like," I'm not pretty/hot/good looking etc." It bugs the crap out of me. Why would bring yourself down like that? But all the hyperness aside, i'm a very calm and laid-back person outside of the campus. It's like my whole personality changes around my good friends. But there's just one thing in life that i important to me. [B]Having fun.[/B] Oh yeah, and the grade i'm currently in is 7th! 7th graders are awesome. [/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]I remember one time in p.e we had to run a lap around the basketball courts. So we met up with the other p.e classes to take a lap. Then i see this kid come running towards me and we were staring eye-to-eye at each other while we were running.While running at the same pace and staring each other down while we were sprinting the kid laughs, and all of a sudden he ran into a pole and fell down. To me it was funny because we were staring at each other with our hair blowing in the wind and all of a sudden he get's knocked out by a pole. If you guys don't think it's funny, you should have been there. [/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Hello Imi! :) [B]Name:[/B] Seems simple and spunky. [B]Avatar and Banner:[/B] You truly are an artist. And maybe a bit wise for your age? [B]Sig:[/B] You're a fan of my work. Haha![/FONT][/SIZE] [/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Haha your comments are always appreciated Imi. Alrighty guys... I was just messing with some tutorials and came up with a background. I gave it to Retri so maybe he could have his own input in this project. Well the collab didn't work to well so i just decided to take the background and make a banner out of it. Here's the product: [B][U] Neji[/U][/B] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23668&stc=1[/IMG] And since no one's replying i'll just add 2 more: [U][B]Speed of Sound[/B][/U] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23702&stc=1[/IMG] [U][B]Jiraiya[/B][/U] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23701&stc=1[/IMG] [/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Ello Boo! Your wallpaper is good, but for some reason it gave me a headache (Which you probably intended it to do). Otherwise i like it, it keeps your eyes wandering. I guess i just didn't like the colors all that much. [B] Wallpaper: 8/10[/B] On the other hand your sig is great! The simplicity of it is awesome and it just captures the audience's attention. The fading of your banner was a very nice touch and the shades of yellow and dark orange are very cool. I have no ideas of any ways you can improve this one. Hidden text? I have no idea. [B]Sig: 9/10[/B] You need to teach me how to do those hexagon shapes. [/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]I love the second "Unfinished Version". The colors fit well instead of just all being one color. I can see that you're blending your images a lot better. This one has been one of your best by far. [B] Rating: 8.5/10[/B] I also can not see anything you can improve. But maybe i haven't looked at it hard enough. If i find something i'll message you about it. [/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]I know you guys were waiting for a moment where retri and i teamed up. Well we did. But only for one special person. Everybody take this time to salute Imi. Check out Imi's threads. [IMG]http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y170/retri_trib/LegendinProgress.jpg[/IMG] Much love Imi (Former username was Delacroix). [U][B]Reality Check[/B][/U] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23666&stc=1[/IMG] While i was working on the Collab, i was also working on this one.. I just finished it today so sorry for editing it in. [/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Yeah, Retri probably summed it all up.. Thanks for your tribute piece, and i hope you like this. It's our first succesful collab so enjoy. Much love, [B]Fanboy[/B] Rising Sun[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Oh my... Am i that glorious? Haha, Just kidding. I'll go with Retri on this one, keep searching other forums and you will clearly see that we still have a long ways to go. If you want, i can give you some tips on how to create the abstract look but it's all mostly about playing around with filters and blending options. Your art work is truly amazing and i know that in time you will eventually surpass me. Just work around with fonts and keep your mind open to ideas. [B]Just give me a PM or Instant Message sometime[/B]. The banner on the other hand is great. Yes, the text needs a bit of work but i can't blame you. Retri and I have the same problem from time to time. This banner is one of your [B]best[/B], and i really hope you expand your mind and learn more techniques so you can over power Retri and I in the Art Studio. Thanks for appreciating my work.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana] Thank you for making my birthday a bit better then it already is. Appreciate it Retri. :) New banners, some simple, some a bit more complex. I love the new way i'm working with my typography and since Fantastic 4 is coming out i felt that we should celebrate by making some banners!

[COLOR=DarkOrange][FONT=Verdana][SIZE=1] I totally forgot to include The Clash and The Ramones. Yes i listen to them too. I've gotten some suggestions from friends about Black Flag and The Dead Kennedy's also. I haven't listened to any Sex Pistols but i'll check them out to see what they're like. If you like the more popish side of punk i do suggest Common Rider. Songs like "Where the Waves are Highest" and "Blackbirds vs. Crows" really gets stuck in your head. And for some reason i'm just not feeling any of the other Rock genres. The only people i listen to outside of this punk music are The Queens of the Stone Age. I only like a couple songs but they are cool to listen to. [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23279&stc=1[/IMG] Live it.[/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Lately i've been heavily influenced from bands like Rancid, Operation Ivy, Minor Threat, The Misfits (Although they are heavily over rated now-a-days), Suicidal Tendencies, Common Rider, and the Bad Brains. This music takes me away from reality and i think that this is what makes me like this punk genre.. Although, sadly, it has been turned into a big pile of a turd but i can live. I'm just wondering if anybody listens to the bands i listen to and maybe suggest new bands that i might be interested in. [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23259&stc=1[/IMG] Live it.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Here's a little animated banner i made for you. It was originally 400x100 but it was too large so i shrunk it.. You can still see clearly what is going on. I hope you like it. [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23624&stc=1[/IMG][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]It kinda ticked me off about how you didn't specify what the "chidori" is, leaving great artists to ponder what the technique actually is. Since artists were wasting their times making wonderful banners of the wrong thing (Which wasn't their fault), i decided to give you a banner with the Chidori on it.. Here's my shot... [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23594&stc=1[/IMG][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][FONT=Verdana][SIZE=1]As some of you might know I have turned 13. In this result of this bithday, i will be getting a new camcorder and very, very soon, you guys will see more pictures and video files of my very self. This day has been glorious but very sadly it will end in about 7 minutes. So here's a banner to celebrate my birthday! [U] [B]I'm a radical (13th birthday banner)[/B][/U] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23590&stc=1[/IMG] And yes, that is me! [/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][FONT=Verdana][SIZE=1]Thank you, i'm a bit tired so i'm just going to post this real quick. Mugen: [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23575&stc=1[/IMG][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]I guess i lied when i said i was stopping :P Well i was looking through a Naruto gallery and i saw this picture and i couldn't resist. I played with some stuff and got this cool Orange-reddish looking color. So i hope everyone likes it. [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23564&stc=1[/IMG][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Thanks for the comments people, I think that these are going to be the last banners i put up because i just don't have enough time anymore to sit down and mess around with photoshop anymore. Plus my brain is about to explode. So here are 2 simple banners that were just random ideas. [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23538&stc=1[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23539&stc=1[/IMG][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Hehe thanks, Well I came up with some banners this week. The stocks in these banners were too good to pass up. So here are my new banners. (All the characters are from Naruto) [U][B]Series: Operation 5/05[/B] [/U] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v730/JustinTruong/Op505redcopy.jpg[/IMG] Gaara [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v730/JustinTruong/Op505Pinkcopy.jpg[/IMG] Sakura [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v730/JustinTruong/Op505orangecopy.jpg[/IMG] Naruto [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v730/JustinTruong/Op505greycopy.jpg[/IMG] Kakashi [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v730/JustinTruong/Op505greencopy.jpg[/IMG] Rock Lee [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v730/JustinTruong/Op505Blue.jpg[/IMG] Sasuke[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Thanks for the new information and what i said was the god honest truth, Ichigo [Re-made] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23299&stc=1[/IMG] Now it can go with any color background instead of white. If anyone wants any of my banners just PM me.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Thanks, I'm glad to be recognized as a good abstract artist, usually my stuff is made during my free time, messing with filters and stuff. Retibution's work is far more creative then mine, though. If anyone has the time go check out his thread called "Altron's Canvass".[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[CENTER][IMG]http://img117.imageshack.us/img117/1371/tillkingdomcomecopy1eo.jpg[/IMG] [COLOR=DarkOrange][FONT=Verdana][SIZE=1] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _[/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR] [/CENTER] [COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Since I've been lately making new threads for each banner i make, I thought that it took to much space on the art forum.. So from now on I'm just going to post my artwork here. I hope we keep this thread alive and feedback on my artwork would be great. [B][U] First let's start off with the "Anarchy Set": [/U][/B] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23195&stc=1[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23259&stc=1[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23279&stc=1[/IMG] The Anarchy Series are just a bunch of cool colored banners. [B][U] "Every Little Bit Hurts":[/U][/B] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23258&stc=1[/IMG] This first one was the original piece of this banner. [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23260&stc=1[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23261&stc=1[/IMG] Those 2 were the remade versions after several people gave some suggestions about changes. [B][U]"Ichigo, Zangetsu" (Bleach):[/U][/B] [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23284&stc=1[/IMG] And this one is my latest one. I thought that shaping the banner this way made it look a little better but this banner could be only used on a white background if you want it to keep it's shape. [/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Haha, thanks, i personally like that one also... Well i've decided that with every good background i make i'm going to put it on an anarchy banner to continue this anarchy series. And here's the latest one: [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23279&stc=1[/IMG] [/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]
