I am happy with what I am doing. I searched for a picture of hoth and none I found looked like hoth did in the movies so I went with my tweaked red moon. I said I am still making minor adjustments. But overall I am happy with it. I wouldn't like my work if it pleased everyone. Same thing with my music. I like getting advice thanks for all of it. But this little project is something im doing for fun not for money. Hell, adywan didn't make every single person happy with his revisited version of a new hope. He made himself happy. And that is why he did such a good job.

 

1. Adywan made a thread for his project, you should consider the same.

2. Please don't continue to post your half-assed work in here, you just get made fun of and it's annoying. I openned a tutorial thread if you actually want to get better.

3. Adywan did please all of us in this thread. Why do you think we're all supporting him? Sure he originally meant to make it for himself but most people like it more than the SE and GOUT.

Regarding point number 2, sorry EyeShotFish but I thought you and FishManLee were one and the same so I was getting annoyed over the accumulation of both of your art (mostly FML's) Again, my sincere apologies.

I'm sorry if it seemed that way but I'm sure if you look at my last few posts before that I tried to extend a harm and be welcoming but things got annoying and I thought I would be direct. Regardless, let's just drop this and move on. (If there was a mod they could delete this "dispute" and clean the thread)

ok i see how it is

1. I made this poster in support of his project, Adywan doesn't have anything against support. It isn't like I am Janskeet saying I am gonna make my own version every single day.

2. It is only half assed to you. I like it and I am not going to do shit just for the sake of your opinion though I respect your critique. But you shouldn't be a snob.

3. Your tutorial is for gimp peeps. I will not use gimp. sorry I paid to much for photoshop to use anything else.

4. Alot of people were snooty about some changes. He made the purist version for those people. I for one loved it and it will always have its place next to my dvd player.

5. I actually listened to some of your helpful tips. But since you find it amusing to bash me I am thinking twice.

6. You would be more helpful if you weren't so misanthropic. After all I did it for fun not for any profit.

I am keeping my cool. If there was anything I said that may have sounded insulting I didn't intend for it to. I enjoy your dvd covers as well as anyone elses who will take the time to do them.

 

2. It is half assed. Plain and simple. I've been doing this far too long to accept some have limits at graphic design and some are more talented. You can do better, and you will do better. You just need training. If you saw my original stuff you would laugh at me.

3. Gimp is free so it shouldn't be a problem. I'm not saying don't use PS, I'm saying learn how to use the GIMP and then move on. That's the first step in the tutorial and the first step to getting better if you actually want to.

5. I'm not bashing you. It's constructive criticism. You want to get better? You're gonna have to take these kinds of comments. Wanna know what kind of comments I was getting when I first started out? "OMG Ass-Man, JUST DIE!" "That's the crappiest thing I've ever seen" etc. Those kinds of comments make you strive to become better. If you are made to believe you're doing A+ work from the beginning, how do you plan on getting better?

6. Just because you don't do something for profit doesn't mean you should go into someone else thread and go "HEY LOOK AT ME!!!!!!!! I MADE THIS STUFF AND IT'S FOR ESB!!!" Now before you call me a snob again and say I posted my covers, I posted covers that people would realistically consider using.

Finally, you are not keeping your cool if you totally shut out constructive criticism and after calling me a snob, yes you did come across as insulting. I do appreciate the compliments but when I try to help you don't have to get so upset or ignore it completely. Seriously, keep posting your own art, and by all means learn on your own or with a tutorial but make your own Fan Art thread or something because I think I speak on almost everyone behalf when I say it's getting annoying.

Would be funny if he refers to you as Ass-Master.

Apologies Asteroid-Man but i get my own little kicks out of these things.

You could say i look like a circumsided love tube, gone so very very wrong. Cut by my pi**ed up father, from my pic. If only that was a joke...

But, if only you had a scence of humour, coming from OhIO.

 

Yes, we dont have cellars.....

Haha, no worries, I've heard it before. I just choose to ignore it.

 

So you dudes in OhIO do have a scence of humour afterall. Another place i got to go before i die then.

 

I'm not from OhIO

I made a new poster in support of the revisted. It is inspired by some of the posters that Simonz guy makes.

I am still tweaking it but enjoy it. I will make a landscape version soon with more going on.

The layout is very messy. Look into fading using masks. Don't add glows around people. The image selection is fine. Just reposition it and it'll look much better.

 

 

Isn't that our moon used in it?

I have a moon?

The weekend of the 26th I'm going to Ottawa so if I do get around to doing new covers it'll have to be during the next dew weekends. Thanks for all the positive comments guys!

 

Hey, I'm in Ottawa... nice to see some fellow Canucks on here (seems like 98% of all forum members are from the UK).

BTW, like everyone else, I'm digging those DVD covers... very nice.

Counting us two and Ripplin, I think that's three of us now. Thanks for the cover comments. I'm really curious what ady has to say about them.

A team of Mods?
Time

I think we should really think about having a team of mods to control trolling and people going off topic. Maybe two or three mods in Fan Edits, Preservation Efforts, and Other Fan Projects, two or three in Star Wars, and one or two for the off topic section of the forums. Some things are getting out of hand and I think it would be nice to have a sense of order around here as popularity has been growing.

A few more suggestions for your covers, A-man:

- Use a different starfield on the front for each film
- Use different spine catalog numbers for each film
- Use different UPC barcodes for each film (I'd suggest something along the lines of using the original VHS/Betamax/Laserdisc UPC codes for shits & giggles)
- Use a different spine picture (other than just Vader) for each film

That's all I can think of for now.  Maybe use OT.Com instead of Starwars.com for the back, as well?

 

The starfield being the same is for consistancy. the catalogue number and the barcode are no big deal to me. But I'll change the side pics.
