    stealing the andy one

    Who knew this thread would turn out to be so hilarious?
    Dr Tim DMD...dentist by day, rockstar by night (and not letting the Las Vegas screenwriters anywhere near it)
    naked Damian winking
    milk commercial

    It's interesting that we tend to choose so many of the same photos. In one of the banners Tabetha made, I had saved three of those four pics of Damian to my computer months ago.

    I still haven't figured out how to copy and use any of these myself, but I haven't been trying very hard.

    (Hey! With this post I think I now get to be Something Else.)

    and Andy

    These are so cute! I love how you u*tilized the pictures I took at Cincinnati's Fountain Square and turned them into an adorable banner. Great job!
  • thank you for taking such gorgeous shots of Andy
    They are seriously the best shots of him I've ever seen.

    Tempe, I worked on making Roachie's green jewels all pweety, but they're too small. Well, I guess I could put 1 twinkle like the boys, but I thought you meant for all his jewels to shine. His jewels are just too small (I asked my genius photoshop friend, but she actually explained that was the reason it wasn't working)
    So, could I make him bigger?

    And I'm glad you liked them, Letty, Katie and Surreyesawake. And Sureeyesawake, aaa, Tim should so totally have his own show- they should've let him write the parts on Las Vegas!
    Was it Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, that Ok Go likes or was that someone else? I know Damian and Tim liked Seventh Heaven...

    I'd love to see some of you guys' stuff too (*cough* HMM *cough*)

    this is what I finished last night:

    You may do w/ Roachie as you wish. Or wait, do you need me to give you a bigger pic or can you do it?

    Bah, you are so talented! How long does it take you to make these and what is your inspiration? You're amazing.

    Lol, the Dr. Quinn thing is a Tempe thing not an Ok Go thing. However, that would make me giggle if they ever mentioned that show. Agentnumone and I joke that I came out west to be a dentist just like Dr. Quinn came out west to do whatever it is that she does.

    I could blow it up, but making small images a lot bigger tends to make them pixelly unless you do a long thing that I'm not good at, so if it isn't any trouble, a bigger one of yours would be awesome. But if you don't, I don't wanna bug you (hehe, bug).

    You went west? I always thought you were born in Arizona! Where are you from? (sorry, don't mean to be nosy, but wouldn't it be cool if you were actually my neighbor?)

    Edit: sorry, forgot to answer your questions...The time depends on what it is... A combination animation and still image banner take me hours and hours, but I'm sure ppl good at this stuff take less. Backgrounds for still image banners take around 15-20 minutes, less if they're simple. Removing things from raw images take the longest- if it's a picture with a nice contrast, I can zip through it in like 2 or 3 minutes. But if it's a dark photograph with little contrast, it takes forever.
    To be honest, I'm probly the worst one in my group of friends at photoshop graphics. I'm usually playing with coding and tend to rely on my friends for graphics. But, unfortunately, none of them are Ok Go fans.
    (although, I have to add, I also have friends who far surpass me in coding)

    I'll send you the original Roach picture before I edited out the background. It's much bigger.

    Tempe was born from the ashes of a Saguaro cactus in the middle of a cave in the middle of the desert during a lunar eclipse. So I may have been born in Arizona. Or I may have actually been born in a suburb in the middle of New Jersey days after a springtime blizzard. One exotic story is a lie, one exotic story is the truth. It's up to you to decide which. laugh.gif

    Wow, that photoshopping sounds so complicated. How did you ever figure it out?

    loool! But how cool, New Jersey! So do you have a Jersey accent?

    And also, I totally admire you as a dental student. Medical school- that must be rough, and on top of that, you have such an intense specialty. You must study super hard- make sure you party all summer!
  • oops, sorry, double post
  • I like to potty and party all the time, and in that order.



    Hey now, who says the NJ story is the truth? Don't make me say "gauze," "dog," or "coffee." That's when my accent comes out. It's my accent that got me into dental school. The dean was immensely entertained by the way I said "coffee." Other than those 3 words though, I really don't have an accent. I can, however, shoot thorns out my nose since I was born of cactus.

    AAAH!

    I MUST use this one! Sally you are a goddess!! laugh.gif
  • I'm so glad you like it!
  • Hey, Tabetha, about your awesome avas and siggies, I want to put one up on my myspace (giving you credit of course). But I'm not sure how. Maybe it's in this thread and I just didn't pay attention.

    aw, don't give me credit- I made them for you. It's like, you wouldn't put "Martha" on a sweater Martha gave you for your birthday...well, unless it was Martha Stewart...
    to put it on myspace- I think you just put the html code:
    <img src="insertyourURLhere" border="0" >

    Ok, thanks Tabetha. Yeah, a genious just explained it to me. I had to put in a /img> at the end for it to work. It came out like this:

    <img src="insertyourURLhere" border="0" /img>

    Lol! Hey you are my Martha Stweart for the day.
  • ahh man! i was gonna use the one mundum has... i feel bad using the same one as someone else... but i love them all... way too hard for me to pick JUST one
  • I sent my sis the link to this thread, and she loved it! She says she loves the Tim nodding ones the best because you can talk to him and he listens and nods to everything you say.
