very funny ! ...... Rodeo on ice ...
HEY !..i can finally see fullview ...it just kicked in today... Like candy in my Halloween loot bag....
.....The price is my message center is back to the " remove all button " at the bottom ..indtead of individually deleting items ...but i'd rather have that than no fullview...
I didnt change a thing on my end...so it's bloody DA...THey wrote me saying they wrote aol...and maybe if enuff peole complained ..AOL changed something...
I seriously doubt it at this point... but you never know...THe net is still a wild and wacky place...
Cant wait for the NEXT bug !!...

Glad to hear you're up and walking, if not exactly running!
When you double-click on the devs' box, it's supposed to delete it. Other than that, look at them all then chuck 'em!

Yuck!
The message center only does that with me when I get impatient, and click two, or three times.
With the single comment above your message box, in some other CSS style. Better than nothing, I suppose.... yeah, better than nothing.
Yup supposed to delete at a double click.

I was studying shadow technique from multiple lights. I wanted to work out how they would overlap and interplay. In that respect I feel it's a real success. I also wanted to try my hand at some reflections. How changing the angle would change the perspective as shown through the reflection. First try, not terrible.

Everyone on dA is a kid, under 7 feet tall, I assume? Free. We use snail mail. That's why the wait.

Awesome - but I could never have that many objects at one time - it would totally lock my system up.

Mine too! I render everything separately, even the shadows. Some Assembly required.

I started in Photomanipulation, so it's how I prefer it. Resizing, moving, 50+ layers and all.

I like GIMP. It's about the best free program I've ever seen.

The Gimp has so much now it easily competes with several 'pay for' programs.

It's remarkably like Photoshop. The main difference is in the display.

markopolio In reply to SiathLinux [2006-10-27 20:05:09 +0000 UTC]
That and the fact that Photoshop does it all in one window. The tabs are in a dock. Not much difference, really.

I kind of like the 'fully seperated' tools in The Gimp - as I only have what I need in front of my image and only the two most important beside it...

markopolio In reply to SiathLinux [2006-10-28 22:10:02 +0000 UTC]
Sure thing! I believe that if I hadn't gotten so used to the Photoshop layout, I'd be using GIMP a lot more.

That is amazing! I love it! There is so much detail in there..and it's such a brilliant concept! I know you were practicing shadows and lighting and those turned out well... I just think this is great work! The skates turned out marvelous.. I love your signs... The audience.. everything is just so cool!
And the ice is really nicely done.. I know that was a headache for you.

Gad! I kept thinking I should probably give up. Then I'd have another idea to go into the piece. By then I would have to do it, bull or not!

Up in the stands there are two bulls and a camel holding a heated discussion!
It was a reflection study, and I've learned a few things about shadows I wanted to try.
I also never tried lights from multiple directions, and how the shadows might overlap.

We learn by doing. I know the technique is good when I can just enjoy a piece without really noticing the methods. (Then I go back and look again.)
