Previously, on X-Men Photoshop Phriday:

Photoshopping isn't drawing a completely new image -- It's editing images to create a new image, such as editing one image or combining several images. The contest usually lasts for a fortnight. Also, you don't have to specifically use Photoshop -- Paint Shop Pro, MSPaint, or any other programs can be used. Please make sure your image doesn't exceed the width of the screen.

See this link:

And for other examples, see here:

TOPIC IS: If Purple Tentacle Ruled The Earth

Show us your post-apocolyptic world if Purple Tentacle succeeded when he "Took on the World!" It could be a devestating image, or perhaps he would be a successful ruler and the world would be wonderful, except humans would be pets. Maybe it shows the future pets fighting back. I don't know, you tell me. You're the one with the window to see the future.

Bonus points for having the tentacle flag somewhere in the image.
--------
I will shortly add some images to photoshop from, if you don't already know about Day of the Tentacle, and if you don't, shame on you.


Now that there is a beta version of this conglomorate that is AGS + Wintermute = WMGS we'll need a better splash screen image. I want everyone to think long and hard about this, because this will become an official splash screen image for the engine as given permission to do so by the elustreous CJ himself.

Using found images of deadcode, wintermute, and ags's ol' blue cup, combine for a specialized screen that can be used as a loading screen for the first official version.

I expect perfection from this group, so get cracking!

Well, I will say that the only goldmine of a game on genesis, are the Mutant League Hockey/Football games. If you happen to have Hockey I would surely buy it from you.

I too was a huge comic card collector as a kid. I have about 4 complete sets, and I was hoping at a time they could pay for something I may need later in life, but not even Wizard comic guide discusses their price value, because, I've found on ebay, not a huge demand for it. And if anytime it would be valuable would be now, with the xmen movies being a hit, but again, they just dont sell. perhaps the action figures may do well, but not the comic cards, Im afraid. But I want to keep all of mine really, as it was a blast collecting them, and they are fun to remember that I'm a Marvel fan, well over a silly DC fan.  ;)

Great! Wow. Thanks.

I liked some of the others, but wow, my first competition win, in like 4-some years. I'll start up a new one as soon as I can.

I haven't read it yet, but that photo looks so unreal and so beautiful. Its wonderful to hear that areas like this still exist.

This would definitly be a place to stop by and spend a day whenever I can get around to sight-seeing. Thanks!

I dunno, I'd bet superman would discover some up-until-now unknown super-ability and still whoop up on you. Actually, I believe [checks his back catalog]... Yes, it was in issue #364 he dealt with the evil BrownNote MusicianMan with his sidekick Flutey. Superman's tights had a skidmark, but after being almost beaten, once again, he came back the next day and shoved Flutey down BrownNote MusicianMan's throat.

Here's a little known fact, on the cover, Superman has a piece of toiletpaper stuck to his foot, while fighting BrownNote MusicianMan up in the air. Check it out!

from the beginning, i generally like it, which is good. its pleasing to the eye.
as for suggestions, here we go:

1) I don't believe anyone would build a house in the manner that those panelings would indicate. That would require more wood cutting then needed. For the long side that we can see, I would suggest making them just vertical boards. No need for the random horizontal lines. For the side view, I would suggest cutting the boards going vertically only at where the first floor and the attic area touch.
2) the window... I would add a little windowsill, on the inside of the black area. right now, it looks to flat, and adding some interior wood would help make it look more realistic.
3) I don't think the house should be exactly on the edge of the water. I would suggest adding at least a deck on the side before just water.

Very nice style, and keep it up. This could work very well in a game. I hope to see some characters that can be consistent along with it.

Another random but interesting question, but if somebody told you this game was made by a lightning bolt striking a garbage can, would you believe them?

Not to get into any bit of a discussion of evolution, just so you know what you posted is not at all what evolutionary followers believe. I hadn't heard of your "example" but you may hear of either 'coming across a pocketwatch in a field', or 'a hurricane sweeping into a junk yard and assembles a 747'.

Let's just take the hurricane in a junk yard.  What evolution would say is that, perhaps the hurricanes come along and one happens to eventually put a tire onto a tire-arm. Then another one eventually comes and puts something else together, and so on.

If you want to continue this talk, private message me.

And no I won't be jumping because thats ludicrous. Instead of coming up with silly ideas, although simple, let's actually work on solving crisises around the world.

And yes, we are losing our moon, by just a little bit every year.
#351
yeah, i havent bought anything from the sellermarketplace, I was speaking specifically of just amazon. thats all. And I know just because the cd is classified as import, doesnt mean it has to be imported to get it.
#352
well, if everyone around the world jumps at the exact moment, then everyones force would cancel out their opposite force from the other side.
#353
wav usually works for recording anything else I may do, but for some reason i couldnt get this myspace music to be recorded.
--------------
BTW, I have Creative SB! Live sound card, so.. I dunno.
-----------
Joy Zipper may be american, I dont know, but the only cd I've found, like on amazon, to have this song is on an import cd. It's like this Dave Matthews song I wanted, but could only get the version I wanted off of an import cd from my local "Record and Tape Traders". That place is really great to get a lot of imports in, but they didnt have the cd I wanted for Joy Zipper.
--------------
So, my case is solved, but again, thanks for the additional tips.
#354
Thank you all for the tips!

nihilyst- I read to use "whatUhear" in the tutorial for the HiQ recorder, but it wasnt in the selection area that they implied.Ã,  :-\

Nikolas- neat idea, hadn't thought of that. If it comes up again, I'll try it out.

Barbarian- its cool that the song was short enough. thanks for the program

junc- dont ever send me junc that has nothing to do with the question i asked in this postÃ,  ;) really unacceptable.Ã,

I bought my Fatman copy from Sqare Enix. You mean to tell me I don't have to play the game like this?

#356
Hello. There is a song out there that it impossible to find in purchase form (practically), well, not in the US. It's a song by Joy Zipper, "Go Tell the World". I first found this song on a Nike Soccer commercial awhile ago.

On Joy Zipper's myspace page, they have the song available for playing on the myspace Standalone Player. I've used several recording programs, such as Hi-Q Recorder, as well as Creative Labs recorder. I really don't know how I can listen to this song on my own until I can get the import cd which has this song on it. If it was on itunes, I would have bought it earlier.

Any help?

I would have originally said to fly, but then I remembered that I would want telekenesis. I want to be able to turn things off from across the room, bring the remote over, fight bad guys, open sodas, make myself levitate, make the bed ... whatever.
----------------
I've thought about it though, if real telekenetics were to come about, professional sports would be seriously hurt by if anyone could be messing with it. We might even need to come up with some device to detect if someone is currently using them.. oh it'd be such a hassle.
#358
When you download the program from:
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/acdload.htm
and you FULLY unzip the program into a new folder, you then select
agsedit

thats it.

oh, and PLEASE use descriptive post topics, as the rules state, as did the registration quiz

General Discussion / Re: Am I A lucky Bastard?

I met and flirted heavily with my someday fiance when I was 15 and she was 15... I never thought of it that way. It was high school track. We didn't date until college, and to be honest, as wonderful as it is now, I'm a little glad we didn't start earlier. I don't want to think about "what if" we dated back then, and I acted like I used to, and we broke up and I missed out on what perfect is now.

I have no idea what my point is... except that I may have completely run over my previous posts' point. Hmm. 8) We're 22 and 21 now and maybe, perhaps someday, if scubachic is reading this... maybe I'll propose someday.. Ã, :P

I like it. At first it reminded me of Toe Jam and Earl 1, but then the "jazzy" part took over and I was moved to Sonic 2's second stage, the city-type stage.

Don't mind me, but it's quite a nice piece of music you have there. My only crits could be that perhaps at times, the regular keyboard sounds seem a bit too loud, and could draw attention away from the game. Not sure really until it's seen in-game, but I await more music.
