Quote:LoL, I was wondering what you were on about but the number had been clearly picked before I could ask... If not I would have let you pick again...Originally Posted by The_Foo
What the ****, I thought I guessed 8.
I suck.
and hopefully all had fun, even if they only got one or two guesses... I keep trying to think of new and different contests but this kind is the easiest and most clean cut about the winners... -

This is today, peeps! If you have a toon on Virtue that you wish "turn" from goody to baddy, you are welcome to join any time after 5:30 pm pacific time.
You can't do it in one session... or even two. Not sure you checked into it yet but to change alignements you need to run 10 tip missions of the alignment you want to turn to. However, only 5 in a 24 hour period will count towards it. I think the 24 hours may be a bit murky and timed for each tip mission independantly but... *shurg*
I'm trying to get Fenian Wolf to Hero. She Rogue right now but I can't go much further today. *sigh*
Anyway, wanted to make sure you knew the time limitations even though I can't be there tonight.... -

Why do you want to limit yourself to have it act like a pencil? The strength of an application like Photoshop is that it's basically all traditional media tools wrapped up in one. Mastery of the brushes, filters, etc. basically boils down understanding how to create a mark that suits your needs. A fairly common block to people trying to learn digital art is they take a tool that is very flexible and has all kinds of parameters that can be controlled--and they try to reduce it to something limited, like a pencil.
I'll leave it to CR to explain his thinking, and to those of you with some knowledge to discuss... But I'll also throw in my assumptions here anyway just for fun, then depart
I would assume switching from pencil to digital is a little bit scary... You have a skillset with your tool of choice and suddenly you are trying to use that skill without that tool. Sure it can be done but... but.. but... You have no idea how!!
So I would think having a way to mimic that tool as precisely as possible would provide a lot of comfort during the transition. A way of dipping your toe into the pool rather than cannonballing in, so to speak...
Hopefully once the artist got comfortble with the one tool they would then have the confidence to start exploring all the others... But if you can't create as you are used to (even if its due to a self imposed reluctance) then all the bells and whistles are kind of meaningless...
Ah well, I'm babbling about something I know nothing about. Ignore me and carry on.

Hey! No battering... I was just teasing.

Thans Caem and Vexxxa!
Caem, I saw Tyra's progress piece of your's -- so very cool! Are you excited?
Have a couple pieces in the works with her, and definitely am excited to see how they turn out! She has indeed been great to work with... Not quite the amazing 24 hour turnaround you had but I never care too much about speed anyway There's been lots of communication, she's been open to suggestions (not that she's needed many) and has kept me in the loop all along...

Tabcef - Groundhog day?? Egads, now I'm having horrible flashbacks to that movie!! But maybe like in the movie, you can make an adjustment and have better results later!
FusionReacta - Unfortunately, their holding up too well... I think we need more temptation around these parts!!
VexXxa - Remember that part of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory where they find a Golden Ticket??

Vex - I'll PM Nojitsu you're DA name and you can either note her directly (if you want to talk about pose or anything) with your ref's or you can send them to me and I'll forward them...
Everyone else - Still 3 prizes to go! -
My anonymous artist was flipping through some of the old threads and remembered Suichiro's Minimal Effort thread and felt left out they didn't participate back when it was active... But they finally have corrected that!
(I would have posted them in that thread for my Anonymous Artist but thread necrotism is bad and the Mod's scare me...)

Naw, you'll have to work harder to get a rule named after ya! :P That's an oldie I just forgot to mention...
But hey, there's still 4 prizes left, you'll get another chance, I'm sure

No winners yet... btw - there are 4 prizes, and thus 4 winning numbers. Don't think I mentioned that yet...
Oh yeah, editing posts! Don't! Least not one with guesses. It can get confusing if you edit a typo and had the winning number but someone posted right after you with the same number....
If you do happen to post right after someone and pick the same number just post again, mention what happened and pick again.

aka - Hot Chicks and Random Numbers!
Back to basics - I'll PM myself several numbers between and including 1 and 100 and you guess them. Guess the right numbers, you win a prize. Assuming you followed the rules, of course...
Rules:
One guess per person per 12 hours. This is 12 hours between your guess and your next guess. This gives everyone a chance to get in on the contest.
One win per person. There are multiple prizes but you may only win once in this contest... This too gives everyone a chance to get in on the winning. (note: This is for this contest only. If you won previous contests you can still win in this one!)
Errr, I'm half asleep so more rules may be added later as I think of them, or current ones may be changed. But it's a basic pick the random number thing... wait 12 hours between guesses. If you screw it up your probably trying to and I will void all future entries!
And speaking of... I will update the "official" list of picked numbers as often as possible... Others tend to post unofficial ones, and they tend to be right, but I suggest you be careful and safe and use the official list and your own observations. And if some cheater (or mistaker?) picks a winning number but is ineligible for whatever reason I shall change that number (unannounced) to the next unpicked number - higher or lower, whichever is closest... Or in a tie I shall flip a coin or something...
Ya, ya, ya... What can ya win??
The prizes are Pin Up Arts by Nojitsu! As her specialty is hot chicks in provocative poses all winners are required to get art of a hot chick CoH character. (sorry guys... or actually I should be sorry for the gals not getting any eye candy...) It can be your character or a friends or whatever... But don't be asking for some guy or robot or such...
If you don't like/want the prize, feel free not to enter
Anyway, like I said, half alseep... So I'm probably forgetting osmething or something but *shrug*
Contest begins.... NOW! -
Very cool... really liking this one...

Hopefully someone will start a middle-of-the-week one as well. Whatever other shift I end up on I'll probably try to form up something for like Tues, Wed, or Thursdays Unless someone with more gumption and experience does it first! *hint hint*

Don't mind me... Just watching and enjoying :P

Hey! I have morals!!
