And this is not even the scarpest best picture example i could find, just the fastest.

It's ok Esper, never mind small missunderstandings.
Looks pretty ok to me consitering what i did to the poor thing, what you think?
Note: Again, the original is not the best quailty in the world no, i was so eager to test this out.

right, you see this is the kind of knob that i think should be better made in IS
not sure about the shades and highlights, as im not that good at IS yet
but all the basic shapes are a lot easier to make in IS

EDIT: what do you mean did ?
you mean the scaling ?
yeah that looks good !

It's just a random download i did from the internet Esper.
And the image has noise in it and stuff.
It was just showing that you can take any picture you want and open it directly in IS and scale in there, live.
Then stop drag/scaling where you think you are pushing your luck and don't do a thing in IS from that point, just go to the Windows snipping tool and screen capture the moment and save as .png, thats it.

@ Esper edit: Yeah!

right
im out of this thread

looking forward to what you are coming up with

What-what-but-why-what did i say?
Everything was good Esper.

For what it's worth.
I started off just by quoting myself because i got an idea updated over here based my own question.
And everything is for anyone to comment on, not at all directed at one person.
And i'm happy with this little "trick" and all is good Esper.
Hope i did not upset you, please be Ok..

Great, and now i lost my smileys.. Esper!! come back and say you are Ok, shortest version in the world is good too, a thumbs up smiley or something, Esper!
Ohh man.. Espeeeer!

Alright, since you did not even bother to tell me what i did wrong, i can not learn anything either.
And if stuff like this can happen, this easy, knowing this, then that would mean that i would haveto speak/think/share..crap.. veeeeery carefully into redicilousnessland, and that would be tipping on toes all the time kind of feeling.
Unacceptable..

Looks to me GC is not Ludde-compatible or vice versa, what ever to call it.
So i'll just do you all a favour right now, yes you guessed it.
And you have my permission to delete this Ludde account and it's a user request also.

Ps, i'm a bit sad over this outcome because, i have experienced good also and i was getting used to this forum i thought, adapting/learning and as fast as i could.. i tryed..
But too many "hints" of "problems" in one week already and this haveto be the last one for my health sake and yours.
I have no choice people, if my smileys are gone, so am i, and i'm not even kidding!
Last drop kind of thingie.

Thank you for All the help and good things that Also is here and happening all the time, some of you will sure end up in my long term memory that's for sure.

//Sorry and Bye GC.

I appeciate your charm Fluffy and i did get a smile irl, could not help it.
I am not leaving completely, just resuming lurker mode instead.
- In Internet culture, a lurker is typically a member of an online community who observes, but does not actively participate -
And that is because to me, my last letter is based on a real experience and statisticly, who knows what else i can break with minimal efforts like, in my sleep.
And between you and me now when noone else is reading this..
After writing a letter like i did, it's kind of embarrassing to have that in the back of my head should i resume as nothing ever happened.
Not sure i can fix this one Fluff.
And i can not mention this enough, this is not single handedly any One persons fault to why i'm reacting like this.
And i would not like this to turn into some "drama thingie" scenario now either.
I am Ok, just staying out of trouble is my plan, not a perfect plan maby nope.
I appreciate it Fluff though.

Regarding your project; take some time going through Draconian Metal Wurx Series. Many of the tutorials are specific to what your trying to achieve. After you've completed a few I guarantee you'll be a happy camper.

whats going on here ??

i said im out of this thread and im looking forward to the knobs you will come up
i did not say you did anything wrong

i have a blog, i do my own Gimp-stuff all the time, that takes a lot of my time and im here to have a good time, not personal coaching
im helping if i can
and you should have enough information by now to try something

yes please, thats exactly what you should do

now go and make some cool knobs !

yes, yes, it's all good! Just a bit of language barrier here, it happens now and again and you just have to smile that it happened again and don't worry about it. And, by the way, Esper's blog has some killer tutorials!

Right ok, let me bite my tounge while i say this.
Yes Esper, and now i am doing the same am i not?
I'm out of here, and i can't wait to see what all of you come up with without getting involved, offcaurse.
"i'm out of here" poff/gone doesnt really send an impression that you will ever come back and getting ->involved<- again.
I actually already have a little list of cases where people are telling me/people what not to doo, then they do the same.. this right here is kinda one of them.
Saying goodbye when one leave is good.
May i leave now and go lurker again, please?

And odin odin odin, thank you! i will, when i get exited and motivated again.
There are Lots of tutorials i need to see and try, and all theese youtubes too, outside of GC even, wich i think prefeer sometimes, the video tuts in general i mean.
Depends really, text is easy to recreate step by step.
One of the reasons i like youtube tuts is that i love when the teacher mention sidenotes and how he/she is thinking, whys and donts and what have we, more human interaction.
Text is static and can be missunderstood very easy even if launguage is the same. <- Oops!

Ps. Atleast we are on topic, since this was about how to turn and twist peoples knobs, right? right. <-
And i think i need to start using a wordprocessor soon, actually, "can't get worse atleast.. lol

And.. i am sorry for anything negative i have caused on GC...
And i am not perfect and i am under "construction" also, i'm working on it people.
Ahh, that felt good..

Ps, so wear a helmet when i'm around maby, i guess.
