Oh no! Another un-authorized pong match!


Click for big'un

And away we go

All righty...we might as well let the kids know that this is a No Layers Match.

That means that we're not transferring multi-layer PSDs to each other, just a flat version of the file to paint on. And away we go...


Welcome to fish-smokey-smoke.


Clickie fer Biggie

This is the last straw.....
you people and your un-authorized matches....
*shakes head*


All the same.... I wish people would take the baton and run....
I'd really like to see more matches that are based solely on the paintbrush instead of cheap filter effects and hellacious photo manips.

Biggie

that's gotta be the weirdest serve ever. the oddity-level only matched by the return. I'll be fairly disappointed if this takes a turn for the normal.

Jason

I love it. Keep it up!

*Shouts to wakkos " We have another on the lose!!!!" hehe*

Looks good guys!

*Takes a seat!!*

Oh...hey...lookit that.

I didn't say nuthin'!

Okay peter, you've been posting all over here today....quit yer damn yappin and get a picture up, ok?

(someone had to say it....)

Ok, so I have to ask. . . ya ya another newbie shootin' his ignorant mouth off. . . I've been browsing these matches - this is the first time I've ever seen anything like this BTW - and I would like to get involved, but it seems that I would be at an extreme disadvantage. Do most of you just paint this stuff in??? If so, then I'm just gonna bow out gracefully and watch cause. . . I mean. . . wow.

Edit: Oh yeah, is there such thing as a winner? What exactly resolves a match? I looked through the guidelines thing, but didn't really see what constitutes the end.

Nah man, no real "winner". It's all for the sake of a challenge and something to do when you're bored or wanna work on your PS skills.
There's been a few other matches that have been comprised of only "painting"..... but not many.
In my opinion, however, I think the painted matches don't occuer often enough, AND that they're more exciting to watch.

The matches usually consist of 3 to 4 "turns" per person.... and it just kinda ends when the two people agree that the picture is "finished".

Synax, how did you do that light in the corner. Is it completely just painted? If so the cool! If not GREAT cause I would like to be able to do an effect like that.

The light in the corner was painted. Then DG changed the color and added some flares to it. Then in the next return I just liquified the shite out of it. It looks really filteresque, but it's not (unless you count liquify as a filter). I actually hope DG fixes that in his next return, and if not I will.

I like how you did the arms synax! Those are nice!

Aww god i wish i could use photoshop..
liie you guys...
goes to RTFM
it#s got to be said that's some real WOW stuff =P keep it up

Super Douche lives on! I think Pete is using him for some "personal cleansing" right now, but after that I'm sure he'll be back! (hehe)

Hey, what happen with the posts???, this match is very good guys keep it going



[This message has been edited by jmhc (edited 08-11-2002).]

*sigh*

Man guys those are fantastic. Is this all hand painting or are you using shape tools to help with it? Just curious the results are fantastic though. Please keep it going.

Hey...been a while, uh?

Damn time travel.

~cough~

Right then, let's see if we can get this trainwreck back on track. One slappy backhand, and no use of the "shape tool" later, we have the Cosmic Douche!.

He's Superrific!!


Clickie fer Biggie Againie

I love the arm on that thing. So detailed, so realistic, so... strong!

He`s ALIVE !!!

Bahaha. Nice backhand, Mr. Garden

Thanks Mr. Bob.

Of course if you consider that I had weeks between hit and return, it's remarkably less impressive

Now where the hell is Synax with his return? Damned slackers.

~cough~

hmmm.... right. as you said... it could be better, but i also realize that what you did is better than what i could have done...

Carry on. Please. I would like to see you actually finish a match!

*hands the super douche a toothbrush*
Nice work peter.
Bout fickrin time you get back on this

I finished a match once...

Well according to twitch anyway.
Noneless, you can take the panyhose out of a bunch Izzy..I'm on this one when it gets smacked back. Deal?

Deal.

Oh...and Jeni...time is just a philosophical construct. If you believe that it only took a few hours it's better for everyone.

~cough~

Fine..fuck..I'm here..shut up.

heh

Ok, just a small return for now. Mega Cosmic Douche!

Click for biggie

Deal.

I do what to see what you will do with all that color in there.

Yes, Peter, you did complete a match.

I have the records to prove it.

<rocks back and forth, smiling, nodding vigorously>

Yes...yes....finished!

s t e p h e n

We should have a ~nothin but mouse/trackball~ one of these. That would be fun.

Good show guys.

Nah..I'm going slow enough even with the tablet this time. ~smirk~

Next volley should be up tomorrow.

Much like one of God's days could be a Century on earth, Darkgardens Tomorrow is much like our 12months.

hehe...

or maybe it just seems like that because his work is always awe inspiring.

You be the judge.

peter always claims that time is relative.

i propose, however, that his slackness is not.

...and hope that he won't stoop so low as to use the fact that this asylumnite has never 'psPonged' as ammunition for rebuttal.

Adam, Peter's time is relative. It's just not relative to time. I don't know for certain, but I think it's related to the Welsh language--you can understand our confusion. When he says "tomorrow," he means "yfory," which means nothing at all to anyone that doesn't speak Welsh.


...though I could be wrong.

Trôns!

Hey Peter ... yeah, you - Get a move on...

ok, i hear that word often lately...
what is a douche? and isnt it written douché, cause its a french word?

is it maybe somekind of a liar?

n 1: a small syringe with detachable nozzles; used for vaginal lavage and enemas [syn: douche bag] 2: irrigation with a jet of water or medicated solution into or around a body part (especially the vagina) to treat infections or cleanse from odorous contents v : direct a spray of water into a bodily cavity, for cleaning

I'm glad we had this talk.

If you were speaking french perhaps....but since it's also an english word, nope =)

Thank you for that Michael. How very....disturbing...to read the definition even though you know what it is. Just seems wrong somehow.

=)

Not all french words have accents over an e ...

and douche (without the accent) IS a french word .. it means shower -

Theat's not as in rain shower ... but the bathroom plumbing device which (judging by the condition of their bodily odours) most parisienne women rarely use.

I think it is also the stem of the verb doucher - to take a shower ... which (judging by .. etc.etc.)
