[QUOTE=69105;24488343]I'd treat the idiots here the same way in the real world, too, because that's all they're worth (and I know, physically, they wouldn't do shit). You think I act differently in the real world due to petty fears? You're mistaken.[/QUOTE] holy shit so hardcore and manly~ You're gonna have an aneurysm over a gmod pose you moron calm down and grow up
[QUOTE=G-Strogg;24498760]Ok, I have two things to say. Since you are better than all of us, I suggest you tell us what a displacement map is and how we apply/use/whatever it correctly. Instead of spending all your days on this forum being an ass in general, teach us. If you think that all of us are so bad at making quality screenshots, show us the right way instead of just sitting on your high horse with nothing to show for it.[/QUOTE] Why should I have to make a tutorial for you morons when there's already hundreds of tutorials about displacement maps already out? It serves the same purpose all around -- not just for particular usages for Garry's Mod. Get over yourself.
Everything must be identical to the game and this is identical to the game it is perfect what would you know 5omeone you worthless faggot you have only been one of the screenshot section's most talented longer than most of these kids have known about the internet god [editline]08:00AM[/editline] fucks caps filters
I'm really starting to believe he's kurit alt or kurit one of his.
I don't come to the screenshots section very often does this guy seriously flip his shit over screenshots all the time That's pretty pathetic
[QUOTE=bubbagamer;24499599]I'm really starting to believe he's kurit alt or kurit one of his.[/QUOTE] You are literally fucking retarded if you think that. I'm not kidding, 5omeone has been around (in various forms) since before most of you retards realised you could actually connect to this internet thing. When I got here, he was already better than nearly everyone else at this. Why? BECAUSE HE VIEWS IT AS ART. If you want to be good, deal with criticism and don't use that stupid LOL ITS JUST A GAME GUYS argument. If you don't, then stick your pictures somewhere else where none of us who care will see them.
you know what, guys? [b][url=http://www.mydamnchannel.com/You_Suck_at_Photoshop/Season_2/YouSuckAtPhotoshop13Displacement_1400.aspx]I'll let Donny Hoyle teach you shit[/url][/b] because you obviously will never be talented or smart enough to figure things out on your own. Honestly, it's insulting to be so ignorant as to not even attempt to learn things on your own. I shouldn't have to fork shit over just because you're too pompous and/or dumb to find it on your own. With that said, just watch all of Donny Hoyle's [i]You Suck at Photoshop[/i] tutorials because he teaches shit how shit should be taught. He taught me! He can teach you. God knows you need a teacher.

[QUOTE=Itachi_Crow;24499632]I don't come to the screenshots section very often does this guy seriously flip his shit over screenshots all the time That's pretty pathetic[/QUOTE] Every thread.
[QUOTE=Itachi_Crow;24499632]I don't come to the screenshots section very often[/QUOTE] emptyquote also well okay why don't you go sit over there with all the other retards who want to congratulate every special snowflake for every single thing they do rather than offer them the means with which to improve oh, of course! gmod screenshots can't be art, because they're made with a game! silly me. never mind.
that's more depressing than competitive gaming fucking wow
i'm sorry but if you honestly believe that just because they're screenshots taken from a game and edited (after being manually posed at that) they're any less art than digital painting or well-made movies using game assets you're really quite deluded don't worry, you'll fit right in here
[QUOTE=rossmum;24499845]also well okay why don't you go sit over there with all the other retards who want to congratulate every special snowflake for every single thing they do rather than offer them the means with which to improve oh, of course! gmod screenshots can't be art, because they're made with a game! silly me. never mind.[/QUOTE] No, there's a difference between considering it as art/giving constructive criticism and being a gigantic douchebag to everyone else because you think you're some great artist whose ass everyone should be kissing. You're not helping anyone, you're acting like gmod poses are the only thing you have left in your life or some shit and being an all around massive cunt
[QUOTE=Itachi_Crow;24499746]lol gmod poses are serious business are you fucking kidding me hahaha[/QUOTE] People are hobbyists. What do hobbies lead young people to? Career choices. Some of us do this type of shit for a living, you know. Some of us plan on doing things like this for a living. You can say "I'll never use this for practical purposes!" all you want, but the truth is it will serve you better in the future. Think about it. You don't use your camera to take pictures and Garry's Mod has, readily available, subjects whom you can do whatever you want to whenever you want to without worry about confrontation about it. You have full access to a suite of features and tools at your disposal like Photoshop that you can learn to use. Editing Garry's Mod pictures is no different than making a Hollywood movie poster. Throwing "I make pictures in Garry's Mod" isn't something you put in a resume, no, but I'd sure as hell put some edits done with Garry's Mod in to a portfolio. Why not? It's not about how creative you are. There's some very very creative individuals here and it breaks my heart that they aren't using thorough logic to realize that this [i]could[/i] open a whole new door to being successful. This is THE ultimate classroom environment -- where you get honest criticism. I'm here to criticize so people can get better; not hold their hand. I guess, if you guys [b]WANT[/b], I can make tutorials on how shit should be done. I guess.
Okay, simple solution, how about instead of ranting and bitching and complaining about something, you talk it out in PM's or give it in a non asshole manner so this doesnt happen all the time? [editline]06:13PM[/editline] Seriously.
So what if they are art? It doesn't mean they have to be super high quality amazing high definition art pieces to look good.
Once again, there is a difference between offering constructive criticism and being a giant asshole to everyone else who isn't as holy as thou
I can't help but feel that you could probably do this with fancy shaders and dudv maps and whatnot. It'd probably also make for a more convincing effect. (The reason I say probably because I don't know if you'd be able to do the RGB seperation shit without writing new shaders)
[QUOTE=Itachi_Crow;24499980]Once again, there is a difference between offering constructive criticism and being a giant asshole to everyone else who isn't as holy as thou[/QUOTE] I gotta agree, its because of the way you're saying it like an asshole, that causes extremely massive shitstorm arguments like this.
this thread is hilarious hey listen op, this be thisispizzle, i like your poses, and unlike "serious gmod-artist-with-rossmum-licking-his-arse" i'm gonna give you actual criticism by saying you have a lot of wasted space in the image. try to experiment with zoom and tilt to make it more crazy
[QUOTE=slayer20;24499972]So what if they are art? It doesn't mean they have to be super high quality amazing high definition art pieces to look good.[/QUOTE] Well see generally something has to be well-made to look good, unless you're about to say that quality doesn't factor into that which is laughable as fuck

Of course, people are going to argue either way, but at least this way there's a little more chance of the message getting through. Now riddle me this, crackbabies: why the fuck are a whole bunch of you, who were utterly uninvolved in the creation of this picture and in some cases not even regulars in this section, arguing and bitching about the crit that was given (which was good crit, if you'd bothered to actually read beyond the first vaguely rude word)?

How about you quit trying to tell me what to do like you have even a single sceric of authority (you don't)?
This thread has gone down the shitter, you're putting it lower, if we just stop with this huge ass arguement, y'know, we wont get so pissed at eachother.
