Wow, Thanks for all of your advice...wait thats right...you don't do anything?

I tend to listen to people whom are better than me at something like Alarid and Scott

Even then they'd have to HELP in order to prove something is wrong.

Sorry but when I showed a bunch of PLAYERS OF GRAAL they loved it so I think thats all that mattered

What kind of crap is this ?

I don't need to be good at anything to tell you something sucks. I'm not a chef but I know that a piece of crap tastes like.. well.. crap.

And I am a player of graal. I don't have this subscription just to say "Oh yes, I'm subscribed!"

You're going to get good and bad things said about your work. If you can't even deal with one little comment, then you might as well not post any more of your works anymore.

[Oldbie]

What I'm saying is if your going to give negative reviews then tell me whats wrong.

He was no obligation to.

And when you reply to someone please use the quote button. If using quick reply in non-threaded view it is that blue button located next to the quote button.

Yes but you must understand your option will be held higher if you are good at graphics.

What he was saying was basically "You can't do gfx, so you have no right whether to say something is good or bad". I don't care how high he holds my opinion, I still know if something is good or not (to me, anyway).

Yes you are right.

It's called an "opinion". Since you did not specifically state that you're here to get help, we do not have to tell you what's wrong.

Can we say "spanked", oldbie?

Anyway, yeah, i think it's horrible. The green makes me want to vomit, its just not a nice colour at all. Then you went ahead and made some nasty white shading or embossing or whatever, which makes it look plastic or metallic in places, which makes the green even worse - if it was a natural green, i could cope, but that is bad. Then the outline is all scratchy and nasty in various places, like you've carved the shape out of an eggbox or something. Then theres the writing and the letters. They don't stand out very well (partly because they're indented into the gui lol) and again, they're just a darker sickening green.

After having made various attempts at making guis myself (and failing each and every time because i suck at GUIs) i've learnt that patterns and textures like that don't work very well. Now, when i look at GUIs that some servers have, like GK and valikorlia, i think "Wow, their GUIs are so simple, which looks nice ". It's because GUIs are there to serve a very crucial purpose; they hold your items and the info about your stats. If you're distracted from the items (and how nice they look <3) and your stats, just to look at some boring nasty pattern, you're not a happy bunny. Or at least, i'm not a happy bunny when it happens to me, dunno about anyone else

Oldbie, it's call constructive criticism you take it as is and respect everyone for it. Thats the only way you will get better. You listen to everyones opinion and respect their opinion no matter if they think it is good or bad. I would rate it right now but I am only on 16 colors because I have not installed XP yet, tommarow I should have my colors back and I will come and CRITICISE the peice.

[Curt1zzle]

Nice idea , but um...very bad coloring I think .

I just don't like the texture and the patterns in it... Sorry ^_^

Edit: Looks like you used way too many effects and tools in the coloring

I only used one texture...no other effects

The white is there for blanks you *****. To put the HP/AP/Head in...wow you're not very bright now are you?

Ok, it is quite clear that you used white shading (or some other effect) along the sides which, as Monkeyboy_McGee said, gives the image an artificial, plastic feel.

You might want to say, "No I didn't." But, I wouldn't suggest it; that would just show that you just use random effects that you don't understand on the default value (well, maybe you changed the color to green).

You may now take your foot out of your mouth.

You now officially owe me an apology, man. Mostly for trying to insult me, calling me stupid, when in fact you were only showing yourself to be stupid, because i was right, you were wrong, and you didnt even know the details of your own piece.

Also, ever since you got an account transfer to that *Oldbie account to pretend that you aren't [insert regular arseface that wants to hide his identity] and started posting on these forums, you've been pissing me right off. You double post, you post negative things just about everywhere, you insult people all too freely, and you don't even follow the rule which seems to be spammed about the forums lately. That rule is:

Think-->Write-->Read-->Post-->Edit

Either start thinking a bit more about what you post, or stop posting at all, man. =/

[Curt1zzle]

Also, if you look at it, there ARE paterns oldbie. Either you copy and pasted a hell of a lot, or you used a tool o.o
