Ending Something... Begining Something... Making Something New.

Posted by firemaker60 - May 18th, 2009


Well, there hasn't been a new post here for nearly six months, let's fix that shall we...

EDIT: As of Friday, May 22nd, 2009, I am an Adobe Certified Associate (ACA) in Photoshop.

EDIT 2: As of Friday, May 29th, 2009, I am a Microsoft Certified Application Specialist (MCAS) in MS Office Word and Powerpoint 2007.

EDIT 3: Holy hell! I actually got a certification in Microsoft Excel! That test was hard... (June 1st).

I said I would be putting up my other Digital Design projects, but all the ones we've had since the last one have either been really large, or looked like crap. This final one that we had, I feel confident in putting it up, because I spent a bit of time with it. It's a propaganda poster of a World War II style. I think I went a little overboard with the blur effects, trying to make it look all washed out. *Note*: This project was made in CMYK mode, and needed to be converted to RGB. There's really no visual difference, but I just wanted to say that for the designers out there who may look on this.

So what else? Oh, I'm trying to learn flash so I can eventually make something. I'm planning to enter in the Power of Three competition with a couple of friends, so I hope I can work with them well. This would be where I show an example of some of my early flash work but... trust me, you do not want to see it...

Now that I've actually found out what the hell Embodiment of Scarlet Devil is, it is literally that. Danmaku, which is translated to "bullet hell". I've been pretty much fixated on playing games of the Touhou series for about the past two months, and it's been a doozy. I doubt I'll ever get to the point of a person like this, but I'll keep playing till I can get at least somewhat good. Which is good enough to actually beat the game on Normal which, believe me, is harder than it sounds.

So yeah, that's pretty much it, refreshing this page is done. Enjoy the poster, and take a look at my new banner up there. Greetings to all of my friends of fur, and especially to the one with now twelve songs sitting nice and pretty in the Audio Portal. Oh, and it won't take another five and a half months to update my page again.

And so we go...

Ending Something... Begining Something... Making Something New.

"This would be where I show an example of some of my early flash work but... trust me, you do not want to see it..." WHAT IS THIS SUPPOSED TO MEAN??? OUR EARLY FLASH WORK HAS BEEN MUCH BETTER THAN THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO USE FLASH WOULD HAVE DONE BACK THEN!!! YOU REALLY JUST PISSED ME OFF!

Dude, I was just talking about the flash work I've done in the training book. Don't worry, our stuff here will be better than the rest.

Oh, and Caps Lock is not cruise control for cool.

You did not just type that. "Cruise control for cool" is not a good statement to use here, but i agree with you on the flash book work

hey JoxskornerStudios01 says ur from tallahassee. have you met him?

Nah, we live on different sides of town. He had a meetup a couple of weeks ago, but I couldn't go.

Wait, did you just say Touhou? I love those games! EoSD is rather hard, yes, I started out with the much-easier Perfect Cherry Blossom. But starting with EoSD, you can definitely see the improvements ZUN made between then and PCB or Imperishable Night.

I haven't played Imperishable Night yet (waiting till I can at least unlock Phantasm in PCB), but yeah, I can definitely see how he improved from TH6 to 7. The game has gotten a lot more artistic, and the music is just amazing.

In fact, the game that my team is making for the Power of Three might interest you a bit...

actually, he lives on the east side. he hosted the meetup on the west side.

and yeah jordan did make alts. him and didly12 were in on it the whole time. They sat there thinking of createive alts. I beleive they have made over 100 alternate accounts one summer. they only pretended to be associated with about 10 of them.

To that Guardivor fanfic.

Gosh, everyone wants that thing now...

Alright, I'll send it to you via PM. Hang tight there.

You never snet a PM.

Because I've been out of the country for five days.

It's coming now.

A Nazi car? I don't get it >_>

Ah, that's not the point of the picture. What I was trying to show with this one was for WWII propaganda.

Basically, if you don't join a carpooling club, you're wasting gas that could be used to help the war effort, and you are indirectly helping the Nazis.

And thanks, it's about time someone posts on this desolate place I call a newspage...

No problem. It seems many people here don't get a whole lot of attention.

As you've probably could tell, the people who really get any attention here are either female, people with provocative sigs/flash work, and top-level flash artists.

Ah, but it won't be too long before me and my team are able to touch that spotlight...

Your resume will look better than mine. :P
