Come on... seriously stop posting projects that are half done, or just arn't worth the time of day... I am getting anoyed with every art community and every "abstract artist". It's all the same, and it is not abstract that you took a couple circles and colored them, then used a lame effect in photoshop. Just looks like a lot of polor cords, plastic, and random colors.
Also, insomnia? I have insomnia as well, I don't sleep unless I get meds. I become iumune to my meds over a course of a couple weeks. Then I just have to burn out over a period of 2-5 days.
[EDIT]
I see a somegood renders on the website, the others go by that modern abstract.... CGI is not the right name for the class, it is render, since it is not Cinematic Graphic Inter.

Well youth, lets see your work. All you've done is critizie people as of late. So common. Show us what a REAL artist can do, tell us how you made it, and add a nice "Just for you" siggy some were in so i know you didnt steal it. Also. I <3 your fake computer specks.
He does have a certain point though, i won't say the effects don't look cool, but the fact remains that it's nothing special, sure i probably couldn't make the same thing, but that's pretty much because you ran several effects and there is very little chance that i would actually be able to do that all the same way.
It's fun to make such things, they look nice, but they aren't anything special, any person with some expierence can make it.
What most people forget is that the best graphic artist aren't those that can make all sorts of cool special effects, but those that are creative, if you are not creative then you will never get further then cheap logos, buttons for sites and some flashy pictures.
It's those people that are creative that can make the real cool stuff, the original stuff, you can learn how to create stuff, but you can't learn how to be creative and original, it's something in your head. When Maka asked me to make a sig for him i already knew how it would look before i even started, there was only 1 thing that was differen then from what i thought, now i never made such a signature before, i also never really saw a sig like that, ofcourse i saw sig with things also in that, but not exactly the same. It's that what makes someone better then the average person.
Mind you though that i suck compared to people like my brother, i'd say we have both the same knowledge and all, but he has far more ideas, he also makes things no one would even think about, yet he makes it look good and all, he is also great at drawing random characters on paper, you know the kind of characters with weird faces and all, but the type you find in a lot of comics, yet his is original and all.
Unless i see people make such things then i don't think anyone should really speak about artists, there are many types of graphics artists, but there is no such artists in a person that just knows how to use a program well and can use some options in the program.
Here is one of my brother his signatures, he totally created it himself, it's something you basicly never see, really never see.
thats awesome Gohan, many people would think thats shit but if you look closely you will be able to see the screwes shadoes and how it stands out, plus how it displays polished metal etc
Well that's actually really the easy part, i could re-create that and make it pretty much the same, it's mainly that he even thought about making something like that, and he has more of those things, and most of them all really original, it's something you have or you don't, and most people don't, and that's ok, because it's just like everything else, everyone is good at something.
People just have to understand that learning how use a program, and make the picture in the first post is not the same thing that a real graphics artist does, it has to be special, it has to be original.
ne0n, don't attack my credibility, I have posted my art before... and those comp stats are not fake. I will not post anything on this thread, go ahead and flame me all you want. Many people have tried to goat me, and it has never worked.
[EDIT]
You can't expect all of your critiques to be positive, don't lose your temper.

Well lets see.. 2700 ram.. Your eather... living at a microsoft super computer.. or living at a FFXI server..
A connection that chokes a t3= Oc= big buisense only and costs 9,000+ per foot of the cable.
1 terabyte HDD, again eather you got 6 hard drives, or your on a server computer that isnt really yours.
1 terabyte isn't hard to get at all, for 750 euro you can get 1 terabyte and i can get 2,5 gig memory for 375 euro.
err well hmm highest hard drive in usa is i think 300gig. and ops, i got messed up on the ram :S i was thinking he ment 27gig ram. cus i never hear people say " oh i got 2000-1000 ram"
ne0n is right, those specs are bollox, not even www.alienware.com has them...
No there isn't a 1 terabyte harddrive, but i doubt he means that, he probably means 1 terabyte totall.
Iv seen custom pc's with 1 terabyte but they wernt regular peoples computers.. they were made speicaly for holding the excess hard drives..
CGI = 'computer generated image' in my book o_0Originally Posted by youth89
Also im makeing this website coz i find that kinda thing interesting and fun n would like others that feel the same to post there own ideas etc etc. I don't wana get flamed coz you dont really like it or whatever. Just doing it coz i enjoy it and im not gona stop coz some ppl think its pointless and have nothing better to do than say 'oh whats the point in posting unfinished projects' bla bla bla. So in a word (abreviation) STFU :good:

So what's your point, why does every person have to have a regular computer? You know my oldest brother will buy some new harddrives soon and will have over 1 terabyte, does that make him a liar?
