Description
This one is dedicated to everyone who enjoys what they do, artists, managers, busineessmen, engineers, anyone.Tonight, we ordered chinese food. Naturally, i popped off a fortune cooking after eating (sesame chicken and white rice, my favorite). This is the message that it held
Promptly took a picture and decided to submit it. You can even use it as a wallpaper!
Thank you everyone for a wonderful 2004. I hope you had a great year and that 2005 holds even more joy for you. And whatever you do, try to enjoy it and be happy.
I know that it might be clichΓ© and certainly not my best photograph. But the message far outweighs its graphics.
Thank you

Damn, they really are modernizing those fortune cookies.
Next thing I know, I'll be getting one that says "You control the game, not the other way around. Pwned, n00b!"

WOW.

Great concept. Very original I've really never seen anything like it. Very one of a kind. The composition, very well executed
The lighting is so perfect and I really like the how the subject is off-set to the top right, not centered. The focus is great as well. I really like the detail of the photo. It's so focused that you can see the grainyness on the floor, or table, or whatever the fortune is sitting. LOL
I'm sorry, I like to comment first and then read the description in pictures. I feel that I can give a better opinion of what I really think of the photo if I do it that way. But anyways, another great piece from you
I really love
it
Great great job.

On the small view, I actually thought this said, "You are sucky but you are happy." I thought, "Wow, what a fortune."

Thank you!
It quite reflects what's my life today. I was looking for a new wallpaper at my desk for my laptop. Usually I look for something that expresses my point of view, my mood, my life. You got it.

i never understood those fortune cookies.
i once got one that said:
"As a human, you can only be a person."
wow. how deep...seriously.
but horroscopes? those. those don't make sense. they state real obvious stuff but word it so it sounds mystical.
like:
"today you will crave for fulfillment in your stomach which only you can satisfy."
which basically means you're gonna eat.
heh.

it's beautiful in the most simplistic way. And sometimes, most of the time, simplicity is the best way to go. Haha, the cute thing about it is the smilies. Very positive.
O_o such a nice message presented in a dim/depressing-looking way. Way to go!

ItΒ΄s great, I like the bg a lot ^-^
Wow, this is the first chinese cookie that IΒ΄ve seen wich predicts the present!!!! XDDDD Anyway, itΒ΄s cool to know that it is telling you the truth.
I popped off only one fortune cookie.. it said "You will realize your dreams with your own efforts" (or something like that). It was some years ago and I said "-Meh, effort... Β¬.Β¬-" But now I know that what it said itΒ΄s really good... and IΒ΄m doing my best effort ^-^

Great job on the lighting & background texture. Did you use a sepia filter on this?

I like this. To be honest, when I clicked on the thumbnail, I was expecting something sappy or tragic (like maybe "You shouldn't have had the chicken"), but this is cheerful without being sugary. I think I got one a while back that I found hilarious. No wait, it was a horoscope in the newspaper, and it said that I was a very seductive person who gets people to do what I want. I laughed for a solid minute.
Well, it looks good on my desktop, except for the fact that the 102 icons I have (no joke) kind of cover up the entire left half. Oh well.

Damn, such a happy feeling over this. It's like a message; "you are alright". I really love the message.
I love the grain and pattern too, but I'm not too fond of the text. (and now I can't just manipulate it out)
