New Flash Music Video
That was an interesting use of scanlines, masking, and that Flash Forum.fla background thingy. I liked it. 'Twas stylish. I think that music's gonna be stuck in my head, though. >.<

i once got a bit of a virus from Limewire, when I downloaded a zip file rather than my usual mp3, and as soon as it was opened the virus activated then got shut down by my virus protection instantly, and a little gif came up with like a police man smiley or something with a stick. Downside to myy virus scanner is it never shuts up, constant pop-ups from it saying update, ooo look at me, hey forget what your doing come here for a sec... its not automatic like it says so. It won't leave me alone...

I have a hard time beleiving that, unless you actually opened one of the files in the zip.
Oh well, you only have yourself to blame for using limewire.

Re: Fuzz Flash
Your visual style is always refreshing. Were you using After Effects or any third party?

And that's what you get for pirating music. You deserve it

ME!? Pirating! no no no... Sampling! Yeah! Thats what I do. Except I've got both billy talent cds without having the cds, I should go out and buy them just because. I always buy CDs of artists whose music I download alot. If I only want one song then you don't any money from me. Plus its how i get all my nintendo music!

RE: Fuzz and his musical wonder!
I liked the style and all the colours. fived and reviewed! You should deffinitly finish it or make it at least over a minute long.

Thanks :)
No acctually, i was purely using flash. Using flash 8's filters, i made a video into a mc then used "adjust colours" Put the saturation to 0 and the Hue down to zero. Thus making it black and white. Then i played around with the contrast and brightness settings. Thats why i dont think it was as sucessfull in the second video clip because by then changing the saturation there were more than two colours.

Vacation
I always wanted to travel to Australia. It's been one of my goals in life to go there at least once, and not come back unless I have a koala.

I know there's probably places you guys would want to travel, where would your destination be if you could go anywhere in the world.

SWEDEN!... No, wait. ><

Seriously though, Australia seems pretty cool, and I want to travel to USA too, I never been there. Actually, when I think about it, I have never been outside Europe at all :O

From what I've seen, Iceland seems like an awesome country too.

Re: Fuzzes Flash

Another one of your works of art :). I really liked the video bits, it added a nice feel to it. I'll review now, and vote, this is going on my favs. Good song too :D.

Dream Holiday

Hmm, I'd also like to go to Australia. Loads of beautiful landmarks, scenery and monuments. Plus, i have some relatives over there who i haven't seen since i was about 4, so it'd be nice to meet them :).

RE: Vacation
I lived in Austrlia for 4 years, it's quite nice. I swam with crocodiles. Unknowingly.

I have dreams of living in an apartment in New York City... but maybe because i'm English and the tallest building here is most probably an immigration office of sorts.

Am I a reg yet?

Also

Game beta-testing

Sorry if this is the wrong place for it, but I was hoping to get some opinions on my new game.

Dream Holiday
Id love to go to America, its so similar to the UK yet so very different at the same time.

RE: Fuzz Flash

Wow, nice use of photoshop. I wonder how the filesize stays that low.

RE: Luis Leaving

It's a shame to see you go, Luis.

RE: Vacation

I would like to go to Lloydminster, Canada, Kent, UK, and Sydney, Austrailia. Yes, all places where flash artists live.

RE: Vacation

I'd love to go to Italy. I've enough money to go, but my friends and I are planning to fly there when we get older. It'll be great, I can't wait. Italy is just a place I'd love to go to and see :)

It's not that bad, I never once saw anyone get hurt by an animal. Although I saw a kid crack his head open running into a wooden climbing frame... and I have a permanent scar from fallling off of said frame... but meh. Steve Irwin's the only one silly enough ot be killed by an Australian animal :p
A wallabe (sp?) took my sandwich once.

Yes.

Score :)

Re: Luis

Bye! You won't really be gone for good, just temporary. Anyways, we'll probably see you as Jamrock once or twice.

I used to live in America so I wouldn't mind going over there to catch up wtih my friends or vice versa.

Re: Vacation
You should go to Australia one day, it's cool. It's where I live, and as for a dream holidays place, I dunno, I've never really thought about it.

RE: vacation
I want to go to Nice (pronounced niece as in the daughter of your sibling) I believe its somewhere in the Meditaranian, but I think its in Italy. I want to travel Europe and go to me roots (Canadians don't have roots anymore do to multi-culteralism, roots in Canada is illegal, so is voicing your own opinion), and I've always wanted to go to a Jungle mostly one in Madagascar (new about it before the movie) cuz its the Chameleon capital of the world, thanks Steve Irwin! And I wouldn't mind visiting Japan.. I want to visit Kyoto Japan more then Tokyo.

Well that would be because telling stories about not being hurt by animals probably wouldnt be all that interesting. Australia is a really good place, although many of the people living here havent even seen it all. It's a great place to adventure. Me personally I would like to go to perhaps japan and also, although I dont hear much good about it I'd like to go to Canada also.

the make the weidest fucking noises, I swear. I was camping once near the Murray river, and all night you hear this weird sound, like a retarded pig crossed with a dinosaur. For such little creatures they are fucking fast and have sharp claws.

I would personally like to go to Spain or Italy. Both countries are just lovely.

Re:Vacation
I live in Australia, come and visit me. Those rumors about loads of wild animals is bullshit, maybe if you go to the country, but not in the major cities.
I would like to go to Norway. That would be the coolest place ever! I'd also like to go to the US again, I had a lot of fun there. Or the UK.

Holidays

I wanna go to America when i'm older and just like.. bum my way about. I think it's intresting how big a country and it would be cool to see all the different areas.

I'm going to London soonish with me college, but just primarily to get drunk, stoned and pill'd, so I don't think a bbs meetup is in the plan.

Fly posting

Me and my mate lewis went fly posting last night. On the way back I had a broom on me and we were a little stoned. This cop stopped to speak to us, and said 'What have you got behind your back'. I said 'Oh, just a broom.' then he said 'Why do you have that?' And I said 'Oh well I left it over his house and i've just been back to get it'. Straight away the police officer accepted this as some sort of valid excuse.

Wait.. excuse me, walking about at 3 o clock with a broom.. what.

Warrior Discos Thingy

Please, i really need some opinions :).

Hmm... it's entertaining enough for a first watch, but not really enough going on visually to just stare at it. I mean say if you had loads of effects going on in different layers... or maybe if you had some shifting textures or something.

Just now, it's got some way groovy patterns, but nothing that seems really lovely and entices me to pay close attention.

RE: Flash on phones

I was emailed by this company, SMC or something, several times about this. They said all I had to do was register, submit my file, and it would automatically convert to a cellphone game (that's the summed up version).

However, I said no, and I didn't feel it was legit, at all. I didn't like the feeling of giving out my home address and secure information on a registration form for something I may or may not do. Either way, looked fake, sounded like bull.

I told the guy no and they kept emailing me several times after...

Same happened to me. I didn't really understand it all and I don't like the idea of charging folk for something that isn't fucking amazing.

My mate is putting the finishing touches to a kick-ass Prince-of-Persia style Java game for mobiles. It runs choppily on my mobile, apparantly because the java implementation is a bit shit.

I reckon it'll be a while before we'll be able to do anything that needs fast response in flash.

I'm not gonna dl that. Dunno if I can trust you...

Also, I can't be arsed with all this technical malarkey of setting stuff up and fiddling with whatever. As long as I don't dl stuff from random sites, I should be fine, right?

Also can i see a photo of one?

A4, I think we put up 4 last night. I print them off in college so I don't want to waste loads of there stuff.

I'll take a picture next time I go into town. We found the perfect place, it's like this little back alley and there's a few graffiti stencils and stuff. I like it, because I remember I walked down there once and saw a good bit of graffiti. You know how usually graffiti is like 'Dez waz ere innit 05', well in the midst of all that someone had wrote a picasso quote :)

Re: Holidays

I am from Australia and i only ever seen a croc in the wild like 4-5 times but in my yard where i used to live we had wallabies (small kangaroos) and koala's and thats like a 20 min drive from Brisbane which is a capitol city :) but yeah in october i and going on a holiday to south america, peru, chile and brazil and then into europe starting in (england) london then germany, netherlands, france, spain and italy and then back to germany to go to thailand on the way home... 6 months!

i live in australia and its really really really hard to find a koala unless you're in a zoo. and even then koalas are scary little fuckers, always growling and they smell like ass. however, if u want to take home a piece of iconic australia perhaps you could find happiness in taking home an aboriginal person, god knows we fucked up taking care of them maybe u would have more luck...
