[Les Waste]

whoa.

That is a good photoshop job. :hat

[James]

Yeah, just smudging and blurring is a terrific photoshop job.

[Sketch33]

Thanks. What's kicking my ass is trying to find a good photo hosting service. I'm thinking about joining Smugmug, although the money I have to put tward this is minimal. Any advice?

Thanks again. It took about 15 minutes.

I've noticed while browsing the other posts that you talk a lot, but I've yet to see anything done by you that looks good. If you can do better, then do it and post it. Otherwise, your opinion means nothing.

[James]

Well I'm sure if you spent more time looking around, you'd find some of my work. I'm not going to hunt it down for you, just because you lack the attention span to find my posts (why you're even so obsessed as to look for my posts is another story). I'm not your mommy, so I'm not gonna hold your hand on this.

But I will tell you this. I could do things in MS Paint that are better than that excuse for a photoshop.

Wow. You put me in my place. Actually, I wasn't looking for your posts. I was just trying to see what other photo manipulations have been presented and much like dog poo in a park, your little insults were everywhere I went. I can only recall seeing one image presented by you and it did look like it was done in MS Paint.

As far as "I could do things in MS Paint that are better than that excuse for a photoshop." goes, I see you talking, but I don't see you doing. Prove it.

[James]

Just check out other forums, little boy. Not all pictures are posted in here. I have nothing to prove to you, nor do I need to hold your hand and show you all my pretty pictures.

The fact remains that knowing how you blur and smudge and make it look like he's wearing an out-of-focus ghost for pants doesn't mean you are some sort of Photoshop whiz, which is what you think you are with such a defensive whining that you respond to me with.

[Sketch33]

You have nothing to prove. I'm mearly challenging you to do something with this photo that is of the quality you claim to possess. If you can't do it, then all of your words mean nothing. If you don't do it, the same thing. Hell, you don't even have to be creative. Just use the same idea I had, only execute it better. That'll show me.

As for my "defensive whining", the only thing defensive I said was I didn't spend much time modifying the photo, which is true. The only whining is coming from you.

As for being a Photoshop whiz, I never said that either. That's you blathering again. I am, however an employed graphic designer. And you are...what? Living with your parents, working nights at McD's, wishing you had talent while getting thrills from being a cyber-asshole to everyone you reply to?

[James]

Why are you such a racist?

That sure is random. First off, what have I said that is racist? Secondly, I don't know what race you are, so how can be acting racist? Third, why do you want to change the subject? Is it because you are all talk and no substance? That's my guess.

[Sketch33]

One more. Slam away Jamesman.

[xandor2783]

Not even with a blindfold.

PLEASE STOP POSTING

Let me be straight with Sketch. In the first picture, look at the pants. Notice how it's all sharp until you get the part where you had to remove the foot? That's what I would make fun of you for, and with due cause, because it looks like shit.

Why are you trying to assume the, "I don't care, I didn't put any effort into it," posture with such fucking vehemence?

WAIT I GET IT YOU CARE ABOUT NOT CARING

YOU STINK AT ART AND WE MAKE FUN OF YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE NEW ALSO, DUH

Yes, I notice how it's all sharp until I get to where I removed the foot. Thanks for some actual constructive criticism. I'm not even kidding about that. When I was working on that it was bugging the hell out of me. I knew it was wrong but rather than spend any more time cleaning it up when I was at work, I just posted the thing. I figured since it was a joke idea, and the joke came across well, it wouldn't get nitpicked. I guess I didn't count on so many nits who are so eager to pick. So tomorrow I will go to work, get the PSD, mail it to myself and then fix it, replace it, and you can bitch about something else. Anything you would like to point out about the second picture? I've yet to see any comment about it.

Also, where's your mock of the original pic? I like to have an idea of the level of my critics, and if you can do better, do it. Then I will have more respect for what you may have to say about my work. The best way to show me up is by SHOWING ME UP. Not posting childish comments like "YOU STINK AT ART". Seriously. Are you still in elementary school? Does your mother know you post here?

As for "PLEASE STOP POSTING", even with a smiley emoticon you can go sit and spin.

[MrAdventure]

I'm not sure what kind of Photoshop Day Care you came from, but most critics don't walk into a gallery treating it like a swap meet. There isn't some sort of requirement to critique, as much as you may feel it enhances the experience, that concept is wholly uncalled for in this situation.

You felt like showing your works.

They stunk.

Hilarious, reeks of effort but it's very flawed.

Get it?

Oh and the request to cease posting was directed more at xandor than yourself, but I'm not opposed to you taking that bit for yourself.

I HATE HAVING TO DO THIS TO GET IT ACROSS

[Jixby Phillips]

NERD FIGHT!!!

[MrAdventure]

EXCUSE ME HAVE YOU SEEN MY THESAURUS?

There is a saying, "Consider the source". You are right. As you have shown by your own example, any idiot off the street can offer an opinion, no matter how stupid, ill-informed, or blatently incorrect. Congratulations on being one of those idiots. What I am trying to do is find out which of you vocal critics, if any, have any ground to stand on when you slam my work. I'm trying to consider the source, and if the source is saying he can photoshop better than I can, I would like to see proof. If the critic is unable or unwilling to do so, the source is full of shit and the critical comments mean less than shit.

You see, most critics who walk into a gallery have some form of art background, or at the very least they can appear to. If you don't like the work that I have done, fine. My world doesn't pivot on your approval. And as of yet I have not seen anything by you, Jamesman, Chojin, or any of the rest of you insulting dinks that I can look at and say, "Wow! That's a great job of photoshopping!" And I have a feeling from what I *have* seen that you have posted, I never will.

[James]

First off, any of us could show you our work. But we won't for two reasons:

1. We don't owe you shit. You can just as easily go hunt down some of our images, instead of us having to do it for you. Remember, we don't like you, and we're not about to go out of our way for you.

2. It won't fucking matter. I guarantee you're just going to say "LOL that iz gay yo" no matter what we could show you. Not necessarily because it's no good, but because you're the kind of insecure and retarded prick that would just try to "get our goat" by retaliating like a child.

We have opinions. We know what we like, and we know what we don't like. And what we don't like is little idiot boys who think they're graphic masters just because they know how to used 2 or 3 tools on Photoshop, and can draw perverted images of demon ladies with tits bigger that the rest of her body.

Here are the two real reasons you won't show your work:

1. Your work is shit and you know it.

2. Actually, no need for 2. 1 covers it all nicely.

And yeah, you have opinions, which makes you totally unique from the rest of the world. Also, from the description of what you don't like, I take it you don't like yourselves much. You see, my pic isn't perverted. Perverted is what your mom does with the neighbor's dog. My pic is just nude. Like how your mom wants to be around your friends. Is that all worked out now? And as far as that goes, I censored it before posting it. I'll bet that is what really has your 'Hello Kitty' panties in a twist. You couldn't see her nips and "vagina".

It's a good thing you quoted that, or we might not have known what you were speaking in reference to.
