how are things with everyone

Anyone else a fan of these back in the day? Or perhaps NCH's 4chan-themed homages to them? Do they hold up? Who's to say, but the pacing and camera work is still quite excellent I think. Probably some of the more globally recognized flash animations from Japan alongside the There She Is!! series (which by the way got a new entry last year), and maybe some of the IOSYS touhou music videos. I'm sure I'm forgetting some, but anyways, deeply nostalgic to me and all that, but apparently the original creator made a whole new one as 20th anniversary celebration. Is this common knowledge or did I just miss it entirely? It's worth the watch if you respected the originals, if anyone would care perhaps it would be someone here.

and the old ones if you care

So I'm doing my first build sometime soon. And I honestly have no idea what I'm doing in regards to hardware. I want to buy everything on monday because savings. However school has been too much for me these past 2 weeks or so and I still never found the time to sit down and do much research. I have a kind of cookie cutter build, but I know some of you here are really into building rigs, so you can probably do better. Or maybe this one looks pretty okay? I don't know. Budget is ~$1500 (not including keyboard/monitors)

So for the past many years of my life I have been drawing in flash. So this past summer I've decided that I was tired of that and wanted to learn how to paint properly in photoshop (I only knew image manipulation). So anyways after a little under a month of learning and making some quick black and white paintings (which sucked and will not be posted here), I decided to make my first color painting. I decided I didn't want to do anything original yet, so I decided to draw something directly from a reference just to see how well I could shade in color. So the below image is what I came up with

Anyone here have their own motto? Or more importantly, anyone here have a good motto for another member? What about theme song?

Hey, I'm Cipher. This probably.. the 6th name or so I've adopted since I've been on the internet.. I really need to just stick with one. Anyways, I'm a flash animator, I'm not great, but I definitely know what I'm doing. I've had some form of the program for probably six or seven years (CS4 currently). I will admit, I've been eyeing this place for years now, but never got around to stopping by really.

Anyways, nice to meet you all, etc.



Or not, whatever
