Boo

[size=1]I made some. First a line of done standard smileys as examples and then some smiley backgrounds. I'll make some animated ones later, but right now I noticed my Animation Shop 3 is not working correctly -.-' [img]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=24718&stc=1[/IMG] [b]PS:[/b] I stole your type of signature, just because. [/size]

[size=1]Most of the time I'm not even prenouncing names I see so it's kind of hard to imagine if I would've prenounced them right >.> I think [b]Samedi[/b] is just prenounced as in France. Something around [i]"Sam-Uh-Dee"[/i] with the "Uh" a tad short. Now, my name is really hard to prenounce. It's not [i]Buu[/i] as in Dragonball. Nor is it [i]Boo![/i] as in "Har har, be frightened little flower girl". In fact it's prenounced as.... How should I know? Go figure out >.

[QUOTE=Baron Samedi][SIZE=1]Nice work on the Halloween theme guys. It was a great surprise ^_^ [b]Edit[/b]: "Torture Chamber: Get your Miyamoto orgies here!" ROFL. I didn't notice the renamed forums until just then.[/SIZE][/QUOTE] [size=1]Ditto on that. The banner is fantastic. James, you really made my day. (Apart from the fact that The Mad King gave me a Pumpkin hat >: D )[/size]

[size=1][b]Subject: Halloween - The Mad King[/b] Okay, he's like uber lame. I won't tell you a lot in case you read this before he visits America, but what I [i]do[/i] tell you is that it's great fun. A bit boring near the end, but still it's fun. Not really as big as I hoped though. Anyway, Now I have an awesome hat extra. Of course, it's all about the Pumpkin Crown. [b]Edit:[/b] Right now, I am in an other district because I heard he just roams the districts... Hmm... [b]Edit2:[/b] Lies! LIES!![/size]

[QUOTE=Ilium][COLOR=DarkRed]I happen to find them fun... [/COLOR][/QUOTE] [size=1]Of course you do. You like to insult other people's religion. Yay for that.[/size] [quote name='Ilium][color=darkred']But as has been said, what you've said about Religious threads could just as well be applied to any other thread in the history of every forum . [/color][/quote] [size=1] Really, no. [/size]

[quote name='Dagger']Maybe I'm missing something (I did read it quickly), but I don't see any flaming going on in the thread to which you linked.[/quote] [size=1] " ... these threads always[b] turn out to be[/b] ... "[/size] [quote=Dagger] I also don't see how it's lacking in discussion, compared to other current OL topics.[/quote] [size=1]Really, what I said about these kind of threads can probably count for more kinds of threads, but that would?ve made the subject of this post too wide. [/size] [quote=Dagger] It's fine if you have no interest in the religious affiliations of other members here; I'm sure many people just couldn't care less. However, the criticisms you've levelled at this particular topic could just as easily be aimed at, say, "Nerds, Goths, Punks..." (which is frankly much sillier). Or if it's heated posts that concern you most, what about politically charged threads? [/quote] [size=1]"Nerds, Goths, Punks..." is an incredibly lame thread, but I don't think I need to mention that. The thread quality speaks for itself. It's almost uncontrollable for the moderators. Could you please explain that last sentence? I?m not sure if I read it correctly. Correct me if this does not answer your question? The point is that in politically charged threads, you have things to make debates about, which is a good thing. These religion threads just seem so meaningless. You say what religion you have and poof, that?s that. It makes no sense to go discussing about somebody?s choice of faith. And the thread proposal doesn?t give you room to ask anything to somebody else. [/size]

[size=1]The first drawing is nice. The normal hand is nice and sharp, apart from the thumb which is placed awkward. His left arm is nice aswell. Great details in the teeth, the horns and the drool. What I think you need to work are the legs and the chest. The arms look as if they are added by some loony professor after he had finished the body. The second image I like least. Werewolves are hard to draw. You did a fine job on the hair and the arms. But the chest could be bigger, now it can't lift the wolf's huge arms. Also the face is rather weird, because his mouth is too thin. The Phoenix one is great. It's right wing could be a little more down, but that's all. Great job on this one.[/size]

[size=1][color=black]Religion Threads. Lately someone posted the religion thread [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=49889][u]What is your Religion?[/u][/url] Anyway, to my point. A thread about what is who's religion. I ask you: Why would you want to say what your religion is and leave it with that? You most likely don't care about mine. I certainly don't care about what your religion is. And apart from that, these threads always[b] turn out to be[/b] people screaming to eachother about saying things the wrong way. These threads have a question that can only have one kind of an answer. I don't see the point in them. Each page of the Lounge contains one of those threads. All in which members say what's their religion with no discussion at all. Then they move on to the next page for the same thread and do it over. I don't have anything against threads which discuss certain religions. In fact, I love to read them every now and then. It's just that these threads make no sense at all. Half of the time they spark useless spam and flame wars. --- This last part is more pointed towards a certain post in the thread mentioned above. About the thread. To make it even more interesting, he added a poll. Yay for polls. The poll used in the thread was apparently incomplete. Some religions were missing. Oh no. Really. It's only a silly poll. It has no influence whatsoever in anybody's life. If some options are missing, that's too bad. People always have the choice to just put it in the top of their post. The whole poll didn't add up to the thread anyway. If you're posting in the thread, you'll mention your religion anyway. Or your post would be considered spam, Whee. [/size][/color]

[size=1]I just wanted to drop by to say that your Banner and Avatar are great. I like the idea of the city signs. The tokyo feel you gave to it, works really well. Fancy text aswell. Go you, it did not hurt my eyes! I love it! :3[/size]

[size=1]I myself never used them (nor touched them). I use a mouse and that's it. My old maths teacher uses it though. He can't walk very well, so he just draws stuff on his computer and uses a beamer to beam it on a screen. I think I'm going to tell the schoolhead that he can walk normally and then I will take his tablet. Yeah... Opportunities.. [/size]

[size=1]I myself use a piece of paper and normal pencils which can vary from hard to soft. I'm so Hi-Tech. Really. Me and my wooden normal pencils. Yeah...[/size]

[size=1][b][u]A)[/u] Which aspect of OtakuBoards do you find to be the most negative/confusing?[/b] I can?t put member names here can I? Bummer. Hmm? Then I think it?s the lack of links to the OtakuBoards clone. Yup. That?s it. [i]Edit:[/i] And I copy brasil. [b][u]B)[/u] What is your favourite aspect of OtakuBoards?[/b] Must be a certain group of members [I]and[/I] the Guild Wars guild. [quote name='^.^][b]Bases:[/b'] Are belong to me.[/quote] I?m your fan from now on.[/size]

[size=1]It's a flat screen (since my own PC does not have internet connection) so when I look from a strange angle I can see the actual image as it's supposed to be. This only happens with bright colours though >>' Ok I'll add comments about [b]Alexander Cube[/b] with a darker angle: The black line still comes out of nowhere. Now I just think the whole thing is too plain to serve it's layout look-ish purpose. Altogether I'm not a fan of plain designs with such colours anyway. I like contrast and a bigger choice of colours, you probably like it less than I do.[/size]

[quote name='Archangel][SIZE=1']but something about the white line merging/transforming into a black line irks me. [/SIZE][/quote] [size=1]Maybe because it doesn't merge into a black line. There just suddenly is one. [b]Alexander Cube:[/b] Altronidala. For real now. Do you really wear your sunglasses twentyfour-seven? You have the strange habbit to use way too bright combinations of colours. Uberlight blue and white on it is just... Evil. My eyes pop out watching at it. I'm happy you used darker colours to the right, but I think buttons should be a lot easier to see than they are now. You just made this design to hurt me. I'm sure you did. [b]Retribution of the Rising Sun Collaboration:[/b] There's something like "A picture ... Words" above the last word, written in white.. I suppose it says "A picture says more than words" can't be sure though. Anyway. I really like the red paint, but sometimes it seems more natural cut off than other times. The text is a nice simple choice of fonts. The red colour works well, but maybe it's a bit too much blending in with the red paint over to the left. Well, I don't have anymore kritiek (Dutch rules *faints*) about this one. I like it a lot. You should do a whole gallery with Sunny. :P [I]I like posting in your thread. I feel myself the official guy who can hardly let a compliment over his lips :3[/i] [/size]

[size=1][b]Cheezy:[/b] Okay, what the hell? I've seen you with really nice banners and now you come up with a drawing, no special thing about it whatsoever and horrible text? I was expecting you'd bring up something nice, really. [b]Sean:[/b] Rather artistic. I like the fact that you actually thought of it instead of just using stock to make it go with the theme. You can do better, I think, but this is original enough to earn a place in the next round of the OBGT. My vote goes one-hundred percent to [b]Sean[/b].[/size]

[size=1]I never thought I'd say anything like this, but this is an amazing piece. Everything about it is right. From the white edge around the stock, to the dark arrows in the bottom. My only crit would be that I don't like the face of the stock, but that doesn't count Dx Kitty, it's amazing and I'm now going to shake your hand on AIM for having made the best piece I've seen in quite a while. >>[/size]

[size=1]I quite chose to read it. It's only ninety pages long or something alike and 1984 is like... bigger. I would've picked 1984 if I didn't already had to make five other book reports in two months. That's one book I wanted to read for a whole long time, but never got to do it. At the same time we're working on the history of Russia in history class, so I even understand the book most of the time :P [quote name='Doukeshi']a crow or raven or some such, which I think represents the church though I cannot be certain.[/quote] There's a crow in the book who leaves the farm together with the family. Now that you mention it, it's very logical that it's the church. Didn't think of that yet. [/size]

[size=1] [center][size=2][b]This thread, might and probably [u]will[/u] contain spoilers[/size] I'm mentioning it now so that spoiler tags shouldn't really be necessary and it's not somebody else's mistake if the story is ruined for you[/b][/center] Also, I'll use lots of names (which I tagged by Italic) so if you're getting confused, please say so =P I'm reading [b]Animal Farm[/b] right now for my English book report and it's rather nice. That's why I just thought of making a thread about it. At first I want to be clear about each character without calling in for professional help. Some are rather clear I think (if I'm correct), like [i]Napoleon[/i] is [i]Stalin[/i] and [i]Boxer[/i] is the [i]working class[/i] (or just [i]'the ordinary people'[/i]) who do all the hard work. I'm not so sure about the pig [i]Snowball[/i] though. I was thinking of [i]Lenin[/i], but later on he more likely seemed to be [i]Trotski[/i]. Because well... [i]Lenin[/i] wasn't thrown off his post. I kind of stopped reading last time somewhere when things started to go wrong under [i]Napoleon's[/i] reign. I felt sorry for [i]Snowball[/i] when he was being hunted down by the dogs, so I read slower ;-; Anyway, before I'm going to say everything I have in my head, I best finish the book and see if other people have something to say. [/size]

[size=1]Amen to that, Brasil. Sage, to be honest, you complain quite a whole lot. ?Being hard to discuss with?; you just have to come with strong arguments. Right now all your questions have been answered and your arguments have been broken by people who know what they?re talking about. You start to repeat yourself to strengthen your older arguments. Stop doing that and let it rest. Please.[/size]

[size=1]Hmm, just for fun I added a second image to my contest post (only as an attachment) to see what I could with the same dimensions/theme with ten minutes instead of four. >>" I guess I can't change my entry after everyone posted, but me no care. I just added it for fun, yay.[/size]

[size=1][center][IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=24437&stc=1[/IMG] [i]I'm only posting this because I want the thread to move on, not because it's good >>'[/I][/center] Last time I checked my colours I didn't see "Welsh country side with three trees" between them. Please stick to colours instead. [b]Text:[/b] Scared you. [b]Colours:[/b] Dark colours, preferably red and black.[/size]

[size=1]Just posting before the deadline. Right now, everything is working against me for this contest. The most annoying things are the lack of internet on my own PC (network problems), the lack of graphics/programs on the master PC (which [i]does[/i] have internet, so I'm working on that one), the error 250free gives me and the lack of time. So, here is my entry, hoping for the first time that my opponent doesn't show up. [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=24436&stc=1[/img] [b]EDIT:[/b] She did show up, so now I'm doomed. Yay. [b]EDIT2:[/b] I added another design. Tried to make something as soon as I had the time. [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=24441&stc=1]Click Here[/url]. It's still not what I want, but anything is better than my first one >

[size=1]I'm so not happy with the theme you gave me, but it'll do. I was about to say "good luck, everyone", but luck has got nothing to do with this. Happy hunting >>'[/size]

[size=1]Dare I say that you are wrong at the point of this being the biggest personal art thread OtakuBoards has ever had? I do, yay! I haven't done too much search, but I knew one thread that owns the kettel.
