July 10th :: Right to the Source

Postby James » 10 Jul 2008, 18:31

So me and Graham are off to camp for our Iphones tonight (JOY) so while we sit outside a mall for 12 hours you guys will have that time to listen to the PODCAST! And partake in our first Podcast challenge in quite some time.

And I am going to post the rules here as well.

www.loadingreadyrun.com/files/green_screen_fun.zip

Follow that link to grab some of our new crew pictures on our Green Screen. Its pretty simple. Photoshop us! If you don't know how to remove green from photoshop just Google it. Its a very simple process. In fact Graham may very well be able to give a quick lesson in how to do it nice and quickly. If you don't have Photoshop use whatever you got.

Pictures have to be submitted to this thread by 6:00PM PST on Monday July 21st.

GOOD LUCK!

We have. Kathleen, Matt, James and I have all shed varying degrees of excess poundage.

Is it just me, or is there a beeping that keeps showing up during random podcasts? It sounds a bit like a sentry gun from TF2.

Hey kids, if you don't have photoshop, use GIMP. It is Linux photoshop, but it works for Windows too.

I'm pretty sure it was a fire alarm with dying batteries, I've had them do that to me and it pisses me off especially when I'm trying to sleep and it starts because it takes me awhile to figure out where it's coming from.

And speaking of TF2 since you guys were asked the next achievement pack, it is heavy like one of you said, they have it up on the official TF2 blog.

That was a nice podcast though, they're always enjoyable. I especially like it when you get a lot of you guys together. Not to mention Matt always seems to be beat up by you guys :P But Matt's awesome and we all know it.

and how do you green screen?

I still want to participate even though this is a challenge and I have a forum rank. Do you think if there is enough of a response, then you could have the whole crew choose their own new photoshopped pic?

EDIT: Cave-alanche?

Hmm...I has a problem. I have my entry done in ImageReady, but it will only let me save as a .psd, and if I open that in Photoshop then try to save as a .GIF, it loses the animation. Any ideas?

Does it have an export feature? Some image editors you have to go to the pull down menu and do Export and you can save it under a lot of other extensions.

I'll definitely try to do this, but how do I post pictures? Do I need to host them somewhere?

Also, was this podcast recorded today? I remember my Gibb question getting answered in some topic today (making me feel like a fool).

Huh. Well. I got it to export as either 1: A Macromedia Flash .swf, 2: "Original Document..." C: Layers as Files, or 4: Animation Frames as files.




Edit: Finding somewhere to host it might be hard. Would it be too difficult/a no-no to have Paul throw up a temporary FTP we could upload them to?

I can't stop staring at the picture of Matt. I think I might make it my desktop.

An early effort

Postby canadianmike » 10 Jul 2008, 22:22

SO I came home from work one day to find that my roommates had provided me a wonderful source pic in the form of a massive snowcock in front of my house (what you can't see in the photo is the set of tits on the roof.)

It was too good an opportunity to pass up. I think Graham's and Matt's expressions work best. Pictures are linked so you don't have to see them every time you load the board.

Morgan
Matt
Graham
Bill

James's giddy expression almost exactly matches that of the roommate he replaced. He was so proud of his handiwork.

I wonder if this is what they had in mind when they came up with the challenge.

Not really...
We're really more going for the green screen aspect of putting us (as we are) somewhere else. But, hey... go nuts.

I note that you didn't mention I raped you all on Goldeneye.

Also, how the fuck have you assholes not played XII yet? Geez. So disappointed. I'm waiting on XIII, which should be given a release date later this year.
