I'm sure you'll find what you want in this list

AF, Qwantz, Penny Arcade, Return to Sender and (now) Kid Radd for me.

*sigh* No wonder I haven't finished a game yet.....

I think if that thread is to be put in the AGSer hall of fame, then surely it's spinoff (or at least parts of it) should be saved too:

You remember? More newsbots n all? Ya you do.

EDIT - it's funny, after posting this I went back & did a couple of random forum searches, & I found a loada brilliantly funny topics back there. I don't want to post any here, as I'm sure someone will accidently reply to them & they'll get bumped up, resulting in an army of zombie threads (I'm sure the Michael Moore one is gonna get bumped up soon, to be honest.......), but if you can vaguely remember any good threads, go look 'em up again. Chances are they'll give you a smile.

EDIT NUMBER 00000000002 - It also occured to me that I am getting all nostalgic a day before my two year anniversary at AGS (joined 4th September 2002). Huzzah.

I once met Chris Eubank at my school.

I once saw Mike Tyson shopping.

My parents once had dinner with Timothy Dalton's parents.

That is all.

Another vague sketch!:


'tis Gilbot rampaging through downtown....um....China. He's probably holding Dart in his hand there.

GTA3 was brought out in October 2001 (or around that) - I don't think they would have planned a twin towers attack in the game seeing as they wouldn't have had time. People are willing to make up all kinds of rubbish just to give videogames a bad name.

I strongly believe that videogames do not affect one's personality in any way, & that may well be all I have to say on the matter.

Right, here we go:



Didn't turn out as good as I wanted (obviously Eric would NEVER let himself get attacked by a ninja & zombie), but hey, what can I do? The head is kinda angular because I always remember a comic he did (a while back) where he was attacked by ninjas, and yeah, the head was kinda squarish.

Don't worry, dear reader, I'm sure there's better stuff to come.

I also did one of C Leks, but it was so crap that I decided not to show it. Then I ripped it up. Then I burnt it. Then I buried it in the Sahara.

EDIT: Ooh, I almost forgot, Eric is wearing his Achtung Franz t-shirt. His arms are just blocking it.......

I too vote for an Artitude return! I'd certainly love to take part - I think entries could be potentially less time consuming than a full bg or sprite, & of course can have a much wider range.

Sign me up (metaphorically)!

How do you mean, you mean just underlining it?

If so:

Code: ags

 [u]your text here[/u] 

I think that's it, lemmee test it:

Test

EDIT: Yes it's true, I do indeed rock.

EDIT 2: He asked how to underline...if anyone's interested/confused.....

I probably should have posted these at the time (Scottish results are earlier) but anyway:

Craft & Design, French, Graphic Communication, History, Maths, Physics: A grade '1'

Art, English: A grade '2'

Which was nice.

Later today I'll start an educational thread in the critics explaning it all

Now this is not a bad idea at all! It'd be useful for potential background artiststo know all the different "styles" of technical drawing (to at least a basic level), such as one & two (& possibly three) point perspective, isometric, planometric, & even oblique (though whether that last one could actually be used is debatable). From there, people can make their own choice what to use AND name it correctly!

I look forward to this new educational thread *does that thing where you clasp your hands together & grin in an almost evil manner*

Also, is "parallelometric" a real thing? I have never heard of it, but presumably you have done technical drawing to a higher level than I...

I suspect he traced it......? And I don't think that's against the rules.

Carry on.

Oh, actually, yeah, I see it is used at the top right of the topic (under pages: 1 & beside Author) - I hadn't noticed that.

My mistake. I DO apologise, etc etc

Well, not really, as the steaming cup symbol only appears when a topic is 'hot' whereas the folder icon doesn't appear at all (I think). I mean, there would be no use for this cup symbol, as the current one isn't used at all, y'see?

Yes, & I'm sure there are several programs that can change what you have to wav. Why don't you tell us what type you already have, & we can try to help make that into what you want. Audacity is pretty good for all basic audio editing needs:

Audacity, now with 10% less fat!

My god, if someone doesn't make a joke game out of this thread I will be rather disappointed.....

Wouldn't 'beyond hell' be past Hell? Like, next door to hell? Like...667?

Doesn't sound as scary to me. But then, space-zombies from beyond Hell is an awesome name for a game & should be used immediately.

Whatever idea you pick, make sure it has ninjas in it. Everyone loves ninjas. Except those damn pirates....

if you wanted to make a 320 x 200 image twice the size, you would type this:

Code: ags

 [img width=640 height=400]www.yourpichere.gif[/img] 

you have to decide the width & height of the image yourself (in pixels), so just double the dimensions you already have.

I agree, I don't think they should be deleted & should be kept for reference - for example, I wanted to find a link that was posted in a GiP thread from a few months ago the other day, & I searched back for it, and luckily it had not been deleted.
