Huh? But I joined beforehand, TS.  :P  Like, in the beginning. Only thing was that I was MIA for a looooong time. I almost forgot about this club. XD

And you haven't answered our current topic question yet.  :tard:

Like, whoopsies. :P Sorry for questioning your membership, Bloodbath!! D: ~so scandalous~

Haha, well... my first work was in MS Paint. If I were ever to show you guys it, it would be just pure genocide, seriously. XD It had AC!Aerith praying in black and white with repeated lyrics behind her. o_o Good thing I can't find it. Bwuahaha. >:]

XD No biggie.

And your first MS Paint thing sounds pretty good, considering that you were able to do that with PAINT. Which is like... having an artist paint with... pond scum. :o

Continue! What about... the first thing you did for a person and actually made them see? I remember doing a layout for my sister... which she did not give me credit on. >___O

And yes, I use "screen" too for the light style, like Thena-chan. She's totally my long-lost sister. XD

Ya rly. <33 XD

I haven't made any graphics in the past few weeks. I haven't been on my computer. ;_; And my monitor is elsewhere, so really, I'm too lazy to plug it back in. :P I just hope I don't get rusty and everything turns out crappyrific. Welp, I can't wait to see more of yous guys works to keep me happeh since, you know, you are all better than me =D! <3

And the first thing I made for a person: A Squinoa background which totally fails. I don't know where it is; probably stuffed in the back of my photobucket. :3 Plus the person didn't use it anyways. XD

Hey there graphic-addicts! I have just downloaded so many new fonts! :woot:
And made a new layout for my Xanga. It's Aerith this time! What do you think?

What a pretty layout, LadyNZ! ^_^ I like the color of pinkish-red you used.

Plus, True_Serenity = Nina!?!?! :o And here I was thinking Nina was a new member. XD Love your siggy though! Adorable fanart!

Just realized now I also need more fonts and brushes. My newest-supposed-to-be signature looked so... boring and similar to what I've had in the past. <_< Any recommendations?

Sugoi!

I have to join this club. Even though I'm not very good with graphics, I love making them. Lolz. I love using screen and lighten. Duplicating the base 34325236 times and playing around with the blending mode is fun, plus it makes the base looks pretty. I hardly use brushes, I'm more about textures, lolz.

I love your stuff. It's so original. <3

Gawdz, I hate it when everyone does the same thing over and over. :fish:

No, I mean someone having a style and everyone else liking it and trying to do it themselves. It's like everyone does the same thing as everyone else. :fish:

CG is right DG, your stuff is amazing. Graphicgasms. (Lol, did that sound super queer or whut? :o) Haha, I added you on the list a long time ago. :3 BUT WELCOME TO DA ANCIENT CLUB ANYWAY, MA NIG! :] Hi 5 for using screen tooo. (o:

I guess it can be a little tiring when styles are repeated. But hey, if you really like graphics that way, then go ahead. ;)

Yeah sure, T_S. Thanks. :rolleyes:

Ahaha, I really like your current set. The icon's beautifully blended, and the coloring's real nice. And that Aerith tag's just real nice. Again, real nice colors. And the text fits perfectly. I still have those tags you made for me a while ago!

And welcome, Desi. I love the cropping in your icon. Nice caption. ^_^

That is because a lot of people do use the same style as others. Seriously. I've ranted about it a few times on some other forums, how so many people are using C4D renders now and centering their renders. Ha ha. It's like nobody has an original style anymore (I know some do, just saying, it's an example).

Graphics have trends, too, yanno, and people are going to follow them. If I were someone who had amazing graphics, I would feel honored that anybody would love them enough to make something similar to them. I wouldn't bitch about it and I bitch quite easily sometimes. The only thing I would hate is somebody taking my graphic and slapping their name on it, but other than that... I can't say I'd get too upset over my style being copied, if at all.

In any case, I do make graphics and I want to join this little club, please? :3

You'd change your mind about that if the person admitted that she only started using your style because you did it. ALL because you did it. :fish: Meaning... She only did it because you did.

And I didn't know GIP wanted to bring her friends here to continue this. I thought it was over. ^_^
