The thing is that macpeople, in their endless technophobia, actually doesnt know the difference between an OS and a brand of computers, so to them there is only "PC vs. mac" (a notion they got from those mac commercials where the PC is a fat guy). But joining the list of companies that cant stand macpeople are Pixologic and Softimage. Pixologic did not make a macOS-port of their groundbreaking Zbrush3 as they did with previous versions, and Softimage software only supports Linux and Windows even though they could relatively easily make a mac-port from the linux version. Hah!

Butter-fried codfish with a sallad consisting of lettuce, tomato and paprika.

A lot of people claim Iran is like the heart chakra of islamic terrorism in the middle east, but Iranians are Shia-muslims whereas Al-Qaeda and most of the other nutbags out there are Sunnis. Seeing how these two groups hate eachother just as much as they hate "the great satan" I dont know if that whole thing holds any water. I think we should just let Iran be, there is no way a war could fix the mess that country has become. It will probably take decades to improve but thats what it takes.

I have to take a model from somewhere, but by no means, not all my pics are done straight from screenshot. Another thing is that if I want to make the picture regocnizible, for example Striptease or Tomb Raider, I don't want to insert my views there, just create an image of what it could have been. I think Botticelli is already now turning in his grave. Third point is that when I do portraits, I'm taking model. No going soloing there. But I have also created my own art and I will more in the future. I have done art for about 2 months now, studying more techniques and using of Photoshop as a program, so I don't think I can be blamed for not creating amazingly professional totally original only my own things quite yet. Thanks for feedback. Just two months using PS? Oh, it takes a loong time to learn how to paint properly with photoshop. I prefer Corel painter because it works much more like traditional media and it's easier to get good results. If you have a decent Wacom, preferably an Intuos3, then you cant afford to miss out on Painter. Anyway about the tracing, I have to admit I did that alot when I started doing digital stuff too. But, when I stopped doing that and instead just tried drawing on my own, from my head or from a reference, I got much better much faster. So I just want to warn you about the trap of tracing, it's a path to the crapside(also known as deviantart.com ) Watching DVDs and reading a book by Glenn Vilppu helped lots too.. more than lots even. He is like the god of teaching noobs how to draw people

I have the unpleasure of having a handful of aquiantances who use PC's from Apple(otherwise known as Macintosh). And they, like all the other macpeople Ive ever met, are smug bastards who waste no time preaching about how superior their little tintoy is. Yet they dont really know anything about computers and always start crying and assume a fetal position at the sight of a text prompt. Mac-users are bastards. I know it, you know it, and Swedish developer DiCE knows it as they have effectively banned Macintosh computers from their premises(you can at most bring a mac laptop as long as you dont switch it on). Even their founder Steve Jobs got the can from his own company in 1985 because he was annoying. I will now recite a conversatio I had with a mac monkey: -My new I-whatever is so awesome! I cant believe people still use crummy PC's -You do know that technicly, a macintosh is a PC, right? -No, dumbass, it's a mac and a mac is completely different. Anyway, mac's have all like cool features that PCs will never get. Like, when I change the brightness of my monitor, the little apple on the back dims or brightens too. That's Apple fo you, just full of little features that make it totally awesome and so much better than your crappy PC. -The apple on the back glows because light from the monitor backlighting shines through the plastic, and OBVIOUSLY it will glow more if you increase monitor brightness. -Oh. Uh, I have to be somewhere now. *runs* Oh, the rage.

It looks like you're tracing over photographs alot, everyone does that in the beginning but you should really begin to try and draw 'properly'. You learn a million times more from doing a bad drawing than from tracing over a photo.

Im with Ebert all the way on this one. Even though I am one year of university shy of making game development my career in life, there is no denying that even the most ambitious games only contain about the same 'depth' as your average pulp-paperback. Critical path or multiple path doesnt matter, games will remain pure entertainment until there's a big enough market for 'art games' to cover the costs and effort of making them.

A classic. But Im afraid that scene will only be available as an extra on the Japanese DVD, Xard. Statements like this makes baby jesus cry. Why do you say such horrible things? Is it because you hate freedom?

Phh, real men write their own rulesets. That way, when a player starts bitchign about some obscure rule you forgot about, you can simply instigate a new rule on the fly: -He dodges behind the taxi and.. -Wait a minute, I shot him in the thigh for 12 HP didnt I? According to the movement penalty rule addition #48, there no way he could have done that. -Really? -Yeah, look on page 113 -Well, according to addition #49 he can. -There is no addition #49 -Not in K.A.F.T.A.N 1.05 no.. but since last minute we have been playing 1.06 in which rule #49 exists -You cant do that! -International Copyright Law says I can, and unless you want to infringe on my copyright, youd better accept #49

So will you film your games and put all the best accidents, trippings, fouls etc. on YouTube?

Ive always wondered how you managed to get away with that. If a Swedish politician would even hint at restricting immigration, that would be like he just tatooed "Im a racist bastard whol wants to deport refugees back to certain death and torture" in his forehead.

But what if said man and his family are part of a satanic cult of cannibals?

You know, in the old days I used to get the full frisking and all everytime I set foot in an airport. But since I started wearing my patriotic badboy of a sweet Captain America authentic licensed marvel comic merchandise attire, Im like a gentle breeze through the security checkpoints. That guy who tried to smuggle a monkey under his hat? I could take the 8hour Stockholm-NYC flight with an orangutang down my pants and get away with it too. Oh yeah..

Pretty much. Keep it as close to the original as possible, you know. I like it best in the Ultimates version where he has only recently been defrosted, and he hangs around with his old friends who are in their 80's now.

Couldnt it just be bullet-shaped sausages?

Cap' is comming for YOU.

The thing is, even if real bullets fired from a gun HAD hit that womans house, that's hardly newsworthy comming from Iraq. It's like rapporting if someone dropped a used hanky on the pavement in Paris.

Hey! Captain America could be a very good film. I used to think he was this lame 40's propaganda remnant too, but then "Civil War" made me read some Cap' books and he's a way more interesting character than most. I even own this wicked cool cap' tshirt which was not easy to find in not-so-america-friendly-sweden. And Marvel has already announced that they will be making a Captain America film, hah!

Damn you, Tale! Alright, you've won this one but next time the argument shall be mine... muaha hahh haha ha ha *cough*

How do you know it wasnt an american named Smokey who was trying to give the imrpession of being an Indian callcenter worker? You dont, do you? No, that's what I thought. Chinamen are a whole different deal. I can enjoy a curry with a clean conscience, knowing that the people of indo-asia have always been an icon of free-market economy and quick absorbers of western culture. But for every bite of kung-pao chicken we eat, we are tasting the forbidden fruits of communism. Phh, let's not waste time on trivial details when the threat of communism looms large on tne horizon!

You actually read Thor?

I played Lost Planet yesterday and the PC version is just as annoying as the 360 version. I have also noticed that the main character, despite being named the all-american name 'Wayne' is really a chinaman. Now, is there any other reason for this than to confuse the american public and make us more susceptible to communism?

Americans (US citizens, in context) aren't a minority anywhere in the US. Whites are a minority in some places. THERE IS A VERY BIG DIFFERENCE. Being white means being American. If you don't like then you can geeeet out! I think it's apparent that we, the english-speaking white creme-de-la-creme of the human race, must do all we can to close this population gap that has developed between the races in America. Now, breeding might be fun but it takes too long and at the time we have hatched a new generation of free and brave white people, the other races will have out-multiplied us by far. No, we must simply try our best to encourage more white american immigrants to come to america.

We've always had a rather homogenous ethnic spread in our native population, thus any non-white person must logicly come from someplace else. I believe we have several in fact. Ranging from obese german buying all our attractive beachfront houses, to young rap-fans ruining the overall esthetic of our streets by wearing sporting attire in public. It's bone-chilling stuff,

Ok, today I read another blatantly communistic and freedom-hatingly liberal article about immigrants and why they are always seen as a liability and not an asset. The article mentioned affirmative action and all the usual, with an interesting sidenote about second-generation immigrants. How these people are discriminated just as much as their mommas and papas, even though they are born citizens. Now, I find it shocking that journalists can be so ignorant of a fact that he rest of us have taken to our hearst years ago; that immigrant is really just a euphemism for non-white, and that non-whiteness transcends the generation barrier. Simply put: you are what you is, you is what you am, and a cow dont make ham. Now to go back to the relevant issue; do we see immigrants purely as a liability? And why is that?
