The awesomeness of digital abstractness.

If the topic title didn't confuse you, then nothing will (except logic). Now, I've been futzzing around in Adobe some more, and I decided to give a shot at digital abstract.

Go there to see my recent works. Mind you, for those of you on a slow connection, it'll take a good deal of time to load. It has about 6 images on it, and this saves time of uploading each and every pic...:cross:

So enjoy.

Ya...I was looking and they all look like tutorials to me. The twirl was recently added to wastedyouth.org and it looks like you deviated it a little bit, but not much. I mean...I could go find some really cool tuts, make em, tweak em a bit then display them and call them art. (not impressed, sorry)

No-Name, yes, anyone could do that, but why? When you've got so much respect, and you can make basically whatever you want, why go steal someone's tuts? I don't believe he would do that, and if he did, so what? You said yourself that all people want is for it to look good. And that's exactly what matters, even if by some strand of a chance that he did.

Aries: I agree, yes, as long as it looks good who cares where you got it? But where I don't agree is that you say it's just a strand of chance these are tuts.

Let's take the first image. Look familiar? Check my sig, then it will. I have a tut for it on my old site ([url]http://jumpstart0.cjb.net[/url]) which i posted about 2 weeks ago in another topic.

Image 2. A sig, pretty much orginal, good job on it.

Image 3. I'm sure a tutorial can be found somewhere. This image just seems too familiar. Maybe if I feel like it I'll do some digging.

Image 4. A tut strait outta wastedyouth.org - [url]http://wastedyouth.org/tutorials.php?section=Adobe+Photoshop&articleid=23[/url]

Image 5. There are about 6 different tuts for how to make outer-space scenes. This is one of the more complicated ones that I decided to try later but forgot about. Good work, you mastered it.

Image 6. Looks like image 4, except somewhere along the line he stopped the tutorial or tried something out.

Image 7. Never seen that before, so congrats.

Now I'm not down on tutorials, they're all good. But a tutorial is something that people can duplicate like machines. There is nothing original about it. Takign some tutorials and calling it art is all that made me mad. If he said "I tinkered with some stuff, tried a few tutorials, and did a few things on my own, what do you think?" I would have said good job, thats some neat stuff. But he didn't so i didnt.

Sorry for the long and angry post. My clan just lost our match in Global Operations 4-5 and I'm kind of mad that we lost it all on the last map. We were so close...

Well, I am not really in this arguement, but if I were you No-Name, I would be afraid.....very afraid. Heh, Neil will kill you if he feels offended, not that there is anything wrong with that. ::Backs down away from SuperSayian:: As for the awesomeness of digital abstractness, is awesome. :p Yes, it just looks very weird/cool. I like it! ;)

Oh, yes SS did you forget about the banner? If you don't want to doo it, that is ok. I just wanted to know the sttus on it. Were those Vicuos pics good enough?

A moderator can't ban a member just because they feel offended/insulted. This is a forum where you're supposed to critique other peoples work. He has done so on mine, and now I am doing so on his. It's like trading tips on cars at the local gas station. If people get offended because they don't like what you say, they're in the wrong forum.

Excuse me? I don't recall saying banned anywhere. I actually haven't seen Neil get angry at someone, but I have heard from him even (I can't remember wha topic) that he has an explosive anger. I was saying that to be a joke type thing. I wasn't claiming that you insulted him in anyway. Geez, why does everyone take everything to be so literal.

Ack... I go away for a few days and this topic goes to ****.

As for No-Name's arguments, I'll put those to rest.

1) I've never seen your site, and the forwarder sends me to the Angelfire site, so I can't see jack.

2) Gracias.

3) I found a base tutorial on that, and took a few extra steps. It's about 2/3 of my own work.

4) I actually found that tutorial elsewhere in a network of sites. Sorry, no cigar there.

5) Bwahahahaha... Ph33r m3h!

6) Yup. Just messed around with some filters here and there.

7) RAR! BURN BIOTCH!!!


As for SS Vegeta, I sent you a PM back after you sent me those links. Check your PMs.
