Tomorrow will be my four year anniversary of joining BZPower. I have been quite inactive here lately, but I have not forgotten this place. I am proud to have been a member of such a great community for so long.
I believe the following is a complete list of the staff's name changes, and what they mean. Black Six / Gephyrophobia - fear of bridges Than the Moa / Alektorophobia - fear of chickens Watashi Wa / Arachnophobia - fear of spiders Hahli Husky / Pteridophobia - fear of ferns Eeko / Aibohphobia - fear of palindromes Aho-Chan / Aichmophobia - fear of sharp things HAZMAT / Arachibutyrophobia - fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of the mouth Emzee / Bibliophobia - fear of books Spink / Calig
I don't have much to blog about, so I'll just share my latest piece of graphic art. If you really like this, leave a constructive comment in the topic!
(Click for full image) I'm a graphic artist. I haven't made a serious drawing by hand in years, and I've never tried to draw a LEGO character. Yet, I got the urge to draw a Hero Factory character last night. This is Cute Evo, my first drawing ever on BZPower: Give all the advice you want. I could use it!
I got to watch The Princess and the Frog for the first time yesterday. What a great movie! The music and story are entertaining, but the highlight of the film is the gorgeous animation. Though movies like Bolt and Tangled are great too, Disney truly shines when it sticks to traditional 2-D animation. Unfortunately, I don't think kids are as entertained by this old style of animation as much as they used to be. This is why Walt Disney Animation Studios doesn't release movies like The Princess a
This is kind of a work in progress. I was thinking I might add something to the left side of the banner. I'm not sure if I should. Thanks to some advice, I added a cement background instead of the blurred one I had before. You can use this if you want.
I received the first Super Mario Galaxy last Christmas. It's a wonderful game, and I was able to get the first one hundred or so stars rather easily. Now I only have eighteen stars to go before I unlock Luigi, but these last stars look like they'll be really hard to get. They're all Purple Coin challenges, Speedy Comet challenges, or Daredevil Comet challenges. I have to beat Bouldergeist, without losing one point of health?
You already know this if you've been to Google today, but I wanted to share the news anyway. Today is the 125th Anniversary of the World's Largest Snowflake. It was 15 inches in diameter and was observed in Fort Keogh, Montana in 1887. Isn't that something?
Don't worry. I won't be making a blog entry every time I post new art, but since it's my first art topic in the new forums, it's worth noting. Go and see my new Hero Factory Breakout Banners! Here's a sample of what you'll see: Also, I have a placed a new content block where you can see all my most recent art topics.
I use GIMP a lot. It's the only program I use for creating graphic art, and it does a wonderful job. Weeks ago, I downloaded the G'MIC plug-in. I heard it contains useful filters and effects, but I never used it. Yesterday, I finally clicked on G'MIC. IT IS AWESOME. I should have used this weeks ago! It contains really cool filters, and I'm excited to try them all out. I haven't even tried to see what they can do if I change the filters from their default settings, but I am sure it will be
Hello, dear readers. I have delayed making my "official" return to the BZPower for a while. I have been hesitant, because both this website and I have changed during the downtime, and I just did not know where to begin to re-enter the community. I will be spending more time on the forums from now on. I won't be posting in as many topics as much as I used to. Instead I will shift my focus more towards the artistic side of BZP, by posting signatures and other forms of graphic art, which I grea
