Graphic Showroom

its because you are saving it as a jpg. gifs preserve transparency.

what is that background image of? it looks like a ship?

 

Ah, right, saved it as a jpeg cause it looked a little better and was 20k smaller or so.
The background is actually alot of stuff, unfortunately I thought the same thing but those are actually telephone wires, then tehre's those pointy buildings and some random house, some tubes and the rather out of place tenticles. I got pretty much all the stuff out of the famous image with the guy in the center standing like he is on a street with a bunch of civlians covering their heads, we've all seen it.
Now it's a gif but still looks like it did?? Must be doing something wrong again, I feel like such a noob.

 

Lookin good! Only change I'd like to see is lightening the black line of the border where it goes through his head. Brrrrr.... real nightmare background. Good work!

 

Looking good Exfo :good:

 

Thanks all, appreciate it!

 

Here's something I thought was kind of cool, sorry about the huge file size, it's as small as I could get it w/o degrading the quality (suggestions?):

You'll have to wait about 3+ minutes for it to load if your using dial-up, so wait for the page to load please.

 

v nice Ex, cool effect.

 

Ex ur gewtting really gd with gfx now :good:

 

Hey, thanks you two, I feel pretty cool now!

 

Haven't posted anything new in this thread for ages (between me own site and MOH Pacific Assult it's kinda hard) so here's this:

 

Thats crazy..its sending my eyes funny....good work

 

awesome

 

I LIKE it!! Good job!

 

Thanks do, glad you do, the tut's on Shattered Realms. Speaking of which you work with the renders is very impressive, I for one could never manage to keep every detail intact like that, :good:

 

With a tablet and stylus anybody could do it, Exfoliate.... having the right tools makes renders easy... it's no more difficult than tracing the lines of a coloring book with a pencil. Of course, it also helps to have a REALLY slow connection because it's something to do while waiting for things to load.

Maybe we should have a "renders request" spot on SR where people could post images they want done. I'd be willing to work on posted images when I have time (if they aren't too nasty).

 

Here is my new sig. Made it quickly last night using the layer mask method and a bit of impatient grunge brushing. Added the grid pattern and some text that I thought was suitable. Scarface is a great film btw

 

Nice! That's pretty cool dude, the grunge came out quite nicely too.:good:

 

looking good matt
