Re: "Lockerz": Scam?

It was a critique...she was just saying that some things are shady. Personally, I use Lockerz and while I haven't redeemed any points yet, it seems legit to me. But seriously kid, chill out.

This looks extremely useful. I'll have to look into it.

I really need 3DS Max. I've been seeing a lot of cool tutorials lately that use it and this is no exception.

Re: Blank Canvas: Adobe Or Not?

Adobe. I'm just getting my feet wet when it comes to design and I started out using some free programs, like Paint.NET and Inkscape. They're great programs in their own right and kind of prepared me for the Adobe products, but they can't really compare to Adobe's products. Once I started using Photoshop and Illustrator, I never went back to the old products I used.

I'd really love to everything there is about Dreamweaver, including CSS. I haven't dived into web design yet and have been looking for something to teach me and this sounds perfect. I've gotten more interested in it since I've helped out developing a site and would love to be able to do my own projects.

Re: Blank Canvas: Who Inspires You?

Lots of different artists, including Scott Hansen and Johnathan Haggard, and music. I try not to draw too much inspiration from a single artist though. I don't want to copy their look or anything.

Pretty funny. I didn't really learn anything, but this might be useful for people who don't see the merits each program has or realize their differences and don't want to read more technical articles.

The kerning between the A and V was bugging me too!

I just finished the tutorial last night. I stuck to it pretty closely, but I might make another for my boyfriend and deviate from the tutorial a little more. I used "Swim for your life" from the Jack's Mannequin song Swim for my text. It's my favorite wallpaper I've made so far.

I'll constantly get asked by people what the difference between Illustrator and Photoshop is, or when I mention Illustrator someone will say "I like Photoshop better". Then I have to spend an hour explaining the difference. It's exhausting lol.

OneNote is a great program, all around. I use it for quite a few things already, but I really should make more use of it.
