Graphics on the Forums

[ExitWound]

I find the checkboxes and such completely BORING and would like to see some new ones, some personal ones that say "We are nVnews". Perhaps the nvidia n glowing or not glowing, just something to set the boards apart from default. Whatcha think?

[volt]

I could make a whole new set of forum graphics...just let me know :)

[ExitWound]

Well so could I! I challenge you to a du-el.

[volt]

hahah, are you positive ?
LET's GET IT ON!
what are the rules ?

I say:

1. Colors that resemble nvnews main page
2. Re-design the buttons (however you like)
3. Forget the smilies (for now)
4. ?

But what's the chance that it will be used ? lol

[Matthyahuw]

I think that's a great idea!
Exit did a great job over at Envy, lets see what you 2 can do together, maybe even a mix of the 2!
If Mike approves of it, we can vote on em or something!?

[volt]

I will start right when Mike gives it a go. Otherwise I think it would be a waste of our time :)

[ExitWound]

practicing ones talents is never a waste of time.

I'll do a few, see what develops.

[volt]

heh, okay than

I have some really nice graphics I made myself. When I mean nice I mean extrodinary. :p ;) :D

[pelly]

I know this is such a noobie question...but what apps do you use to create your graphics?



:D

[Kruno]

I use MS Paint.

[volt]

I use PS

[ExitWound]

same here.

[netviper13]

PS is a great program, not too complicated yet it still allows you to do everything.

[|JuiceZ|]

PS is the standard in the 2d graphics industry, nuff said.

I've played around with Photoshop before.....cool program....
Freshman year in college, I made a few of us some...er....ID badges....yeah, ID badges....before we headed to FL for Spring Break....You can do amazing things with that app!

I didn't know if there was another cool toy you guys were using...

I really like GIMP. It doesn't have so many featured but it's a Photoshop rip off and it kicks ass!. You can make really nice things in GIMP (both for *nix and windows)

[|JuiceZ|]

*nix= linux :confused:

[volt]

meaning both platforms (linux and unix) plus windows :)

http://www.gimp.org/

and it's free!

[|JuiceZ|]

[volt]

Gimp is at PSP's level. the only diff is that it's free :)

[volt]

Not at PS 7 level, unless they updated GIMP to reflect the new version :)
