DS: Wow a completely different serve and that is impressive!!

Offer still stands on the issue of thumbs.

PS - that link to the zip needs sorting.
[edit: damn you beat me too it]

Settles in with popcorn.

yikes. truly a suprise serve. just looking to get my racket on it. will try to get it back over the net by lunch (4 hours).

did I mention yikes?

Hey, got around to it a little sooner than I expected. as in, immediately.

anyways here is what I came up with. wasn't real sure what to do with it (obviously) as it was such a dominant graphic, so I moved it back a bit and kept the prickly idea. Now that I look at it it is obviously an "homage" to the image you started with for your match with ata. but hey, what is not to like about orange and black? plus I figured I would leave some empty space towork with




here is the download
and here is a larger version

*Sees it coming far and high, trips on pillow from last game and falls face first into the dust, But manages to caches it in the last second*

Hhhmm I have to think about this one hhhmmm, nice changes though gives more space for nice creative work .



Chris C

btw, followed you link over at 5pieces, and wanted to tell you how much I liked your portfolio.

wcr one, was the link in 5pieces forum? If yes, I try and get around a little by poting in other forums and sending my link anywhere they will show it .

If not never mind and thanks for the nice comments , this next sever will be soon, so get ready for it!!




Chris C

yep, it was in the forum. have you participated in any of their projects? I dig that.

waits patiently on the baseline looking for a big overhead smash, but also ready for the drop shot. gotta keep on my toes.

No I have not participated in any of their projects, because they have to many images to use in one image. I like my freedom with art and I think there are a but hash on the rules.

*runs back of the court to get some power behind this serve. Starts running towards wcr one, jumps and slam it gone*

I have to send you the PSD by mail, sorry brinkster does not allow any zip files over 1meg .

*Runs and find a good hosting, trips on that pillow again (dam pillow)*


Chris C

okee dokee. could you send me a copy at work also? my cable connection went tits up last week, and the new network is still a bit shaky. thanks.

No problem. Check your mail now, I hope you have it .


Chris C

.... and wcr one hits yet another defensive volley, using his opponents power to keep himself in this game. A lucky return because as he was tracking down the DS shot he tripped over that damn pillow and fell into bed. and stayed there.


want it bigger? thwack
want the zipper? thwack

the zip is about 1.7, 1.8. do what you need to get it to the size you need. I merged all the layers I could (I think).

settles down behind the baseline awaiting the ensuing beating

*Move that dam pillow out of the way, runs for the serve, just about gets to it*

Some nice changes there , I will try to make it below 1.5meg if I can.



Chris C

wcr one: Nice twist there - it certainly looks like war!!

I'm not sure how Straight Outta Compton managed to sneak is gangsta ass on to the list!!

Great match and some blisteringly quick returns (apart from sleeping breaks!!).

Emps

ds: if you can't get it under 1.5 let me know. I think we can work something out.

emps: it just a way to express yourself (another nwa reference)

wcr one: There aren't many more NWA references suitable for the Asylum!!

Emps

*Gets ready to serve and hears some one say "gangsta", quickly serves and runs and find the pillow to hide behind*

Well did my best at this file size problem, any It looks like I never added anythink to it. I did a grid, speaker in the top left and some text high lighting.

PSD file sent by mail .


Chris C

me likes. have a few ideas and you caught me on my lunch break. am getting my racket restrung as we speak, hope to have a volley in a bit if I can just avoid the pillow.

Sneaks one over the net just when wcr one was expecting a smash!!

Emps

*Peeps out form pillow and sees a big mad slam coming form wcr one, runs to get it, trips on pillow (agiain) and fall to the ground, but still gets to it*

wow, nice touch there wcr one, hhmm have to think about my next move.

*Start thinking fast*


Chris C

*Stop thinking and serves*

Well just add a few little things to it .

PSD sent be mail

*Waits to see if WCR has any energy left to have one more swipe*


Chris C

sweat dripping from his brow onto the dirty, wet, obtrusive, #@$$!*&# pillow, wcr one figures he has the energy, but not the time (at least that is his excuse as he admires the latest touches and tries to figure what would work here). calls a time out with the ball suspending in mid air. time out to last approximately until monday (colony time).

see ya on the other side of the weekend, have a good one.

So, after a bunch of pillow time, call's "time in", makes a small dink drop shot that lands directly on the top of the net and stays there. after a bunch of milling about and waiting for the ball to fall, the crowd loses interest, leaves to quaff a pint or two of bitters, followed by the line judges, and finally the chair umpire. ds and wcr decide to call it a draw, and leave the quiet court, with the ball still resting upon the net.



supersized
full meal deal zip

nice work DS, and thanks for the chance. really enjoyed it.

bill

*Well runs out and find no one about but my old pillow, shouts "Well is that it?" it echo?s around the court. See a ball floating in the air and leaves it there*

Well thanks for a great game wcr one, I really enjoyed myself .

*Runs to the bar to have a few beers before closing time*

[Edit - lock and archive this one]

Great match you two.

Emps

thanks man

Interesting. This was the first match I've seen looks like a great way to learn some new techniques. That is some interesting work the two of you put out. Looks like an album cover. (a compliment definitely)
