If you would like me to put it up as a large avatar just let me know,

Change your password let me know what it is through u2u, I'll change your Avatar to large, then u2u you immediately, and then change your password back.

It's a surprisingly regular occurrence LOL

ETA: I did a google reverse on your image and that's the one that came up

Happy for you ! Feedback is important it makes wonders and not all bosses remember that

a reply to: dollukka

Yeah in my book, a "Bloody well done, never expected that thanks" Counts for more than a pay rise, it means your getting noticed and appreciated, very important to me at work.

As I told Tim, "Never push a loyal person to the point they don't give a damn"

It's a good thing to remember in life

They have TONS of stock images that are free to use... stock images are what you redo yourself.. just base images. Most who give away stock just want you to give them credit for the stock if and where you use it.. other than that it is free.

Because there is so much stock that you cannot always find it all, sometimes if you find an already finished project you can look to see where they got their stock from.. plethora of information there!

But yeah... redo-ing it is the point!

PS. Digital art (to find finished projects that have listed where they got their stock) and "resources and stock images" are the categories you want..

I am so very happy for you Cody! Its great to see you doing so well, and so happy!

As for how I am doing, I am doing better enough to have been doing physical therapy.. which means I hurt, but its the hurt from pushing myself... rather than so much from injury... just trying to get to the point where I don't keep getting worse, but instead get better...

my arms go numb still, but I am getting more used to it, and able to do more..

At current moment, I am making a woman who appears to be made of water, having her in a mountain stream.. but I am not sure it is working.... lol... she looks odd I think, verses looking like water.. hopefully I will be able to get this right!

see:



So far, just odd.. lol.. I am doing stuff though!

a reply to: cody599

Such great advice...I will try to remember that...

Cheers

That's a step in the right direction OB

Pushing yourself to improve is a valiant and courageous goal, too many people don't strive for their betterment, spiritually, physically or mentally............................I couldn't put you in that bracket I'm very pleased to say

Water girl maybe needs a little work LOL but I see where you're coming from, and like the concept.

That's me Ektar, fountain of wisdom ........................................ NOT

she looks like she is made of ice. google has a few good images of watery people if you want to compare and tweak.

You do realise we do this for free, for fun, don't you ?

When it stops being fun it's not worth doing, sorry to be so blunt, but we're just a bunch of friends having fun, not an advertising agency.

Cody

at no point did i suggest otherwise, and i have repeatedly thanked every participant for their time and skill and energy. please dont address me as though i have disrespected anyone on this thread because i have gone to efforts to make sure everyone feels appreciated for what they do. and if that was not your intent, then i misunderstood and apologize for that.

for me its one thing to use a part of someone else work to make an avatar for use here, its a whole nother ball game to change up someone's work, full size, knowing that it will be used elsewhere.

Animations are a lot of work for someone, graphics artists in general, put pieces out at places like tumblr, deviant and more to get their names out... because their living is doing graphics, and pieces like this are their advertisement. People say hey "look at that quality work that such and such did" to their friends and family, and their friends and family say it to more people, and such and such gets a bit of business out of that...selling a piece, or being hired to do some banner/logo/website work for a company...

Stealing people's work is stealing it - I am not saying that is your intention, I'm just saying if its not for use here, unless I am doing work for your business, then I will do graphics work on a case by case basis for what someone is wanting. And what you are wanting, is a no.

ok, thats fair. i thought i would throw it out there and if anyone else cares to work on it, then thats okay with me. thank you for your consideration.

a reply to: cody599

Thanks for the encouraging words!

And yeah.. she needs a little work.. hahaha (thinking positive!)

One vote for ice! WOOHOO! Ice is at least a form of water!



As to the other.. NP.. Thanks for understanding!

Alright, all you artists out there...

I'm considering changing my avvy...

Here's what I need/want:

A dragon-seagull breathing fire. Flaming, if you will...

I may, or may not, use it.

I'd appreciate anything any of you can come up with.
