K then i'm all good..... well sort of... I'll find out soon enough.
Am I the only guy who did an avatar in the good ole classic Windows 98 Paint!!!!11oneone!!!!@@two*cough*7*cough*
I mean come on honestly... there has to be some guy like me, with no talent what so ever who decided to simple pick up a paint brush (technically speaking) and just started painting a not-so-simple-picture that took me one whole friggen week just to outline color and sketch the damn thing!!!
Any body..

Shifty

Edit: *catching breath from histerical laughter* thats a good one.... people.... stealing... my avy...... to use for themselves.... *breaks out laughing again*... that was a good one *wipes tears*

when ur making a picture thats 90 pixels by 90 pixels there really is no difference between ms paint and photoshop,..well except for the $649 price tag,...... u still have to make the picture pixel by pixel and its a friggin pain in the ass doing that,.. i wanted to cry after i was done my avatar,...u have to get used to looking at blurry pixelated images and picturing them in ur mind what they would look like when zoomed out,......

oh and by the way stosh is on vacation,...................

("there are people who will steal ur picture, just for the sake of being a jerk"),... but i would never do such a thing.............."mumbles" "muahaahah" "ahahhaahha".........."hehehe"."gigg les in mischevious/girlish voice"................

I got lucky. I do off and onn work for a small t-shirt company in the area. I do ALL the designing and stuff. So the boss just gave me PS5 and then PS7. Before that, I did EVERYTHING in MSpaint. Thank God I have a scanner! lol

That's the silliest thing I've ever heard, Photoshop is infinitely more powerful than paint.

ahhhh....u just dont get it, try making a picture thats 90x90 pixels in photoshop and paint and ull see what i mean, the piture is only as good as the artist is, ms paint still lets u choose many many different shades of a colour so its still effective but just slower............

i guess i see what you're sayin, but, making ANY sized pic is tons easier in PS

You can make the pic any size you want and shrink it down in Photoshop, too.

shrinking down can have unexpected consequenses, the image might get distorted or image quality will become horrible,....i hate convertiong psd files to jpeg, they look like crap after.....

yeah, i mean, if you take my avatar and shrink it down even to 80x80 pixels it looks terrible.

  • 06.26.2004 11:21 AM PDT

I'll still disagree. In my experience making a high-res pic and shrinking it always produces a better quality pic than doing it at a lower resolution. Especially when you get as small as 90X90 pixels.

ahahaha whew thats great...
Well I guess I'm the only ms Paint dude lyin around. Ah wel Idont care about what program is easier or faster. I'm just proud that my not so good avy took me 2 friggen weeks to make *stabs cat's tail* AARRRRGGG!!!!!
Oh I should let you know I was aiming for the worst prize. Second thoughts yet aWoZ, if not I already submitted it.. ya thats right....

Or can two pics of the same thing be submitted *eeeeek-blam!-* I have it hosted already but can someone seal it and submit it under their name and get me disqualified? Or is it just if I send in two??

Shifty

Edit: Blam was the continuing of the k's not a curse.
