Brush Shading

Do you use paint selection, paint inside, paint normal setting, or even the non-brush line shading? I use paint inside and line shading.

No fucking way, Mindchamber told me last night that they had a few bugs, but the game was pretty much done. That sucks.

they are waiting on 3 graphics from me thats how i know.

For a months wait those are gonna be the best 3 graphics ever!

lol, played it... got ok far, but was playing hard... then sneeazed and there went the game. havnt calmed down enough to play again yet.

Luis and the game

it was an ok game, not that origonal but graphicly it was great.. using music you've used before seemed a little cheap, especialy when you relsie how overused that msuic was.

overall, i cna can see why it got the score it got (3.97 or somehting).. prehaps if it was some sort of epic movie all done in those graphics it'd been better, but the Wii aspect adds some joy to the whole thing..

7/10 from me luis ;)

i'd leave a review but i only do that when i know it'd get a fun reply and sex.

Picoday aftermath

so now the days over we'll have maybe one or two good submissions that just missed the date, tons of n00bs trying to join in and prehaps one or two great submissions unrelated to picoday...

whens the next big proper event? Summer holidays!?

meh thanks for the feedback, im done with it. Pico day was kind of shit, i think my favorite movie was the one where pico is gay and it performed badly by newgrounds standards because apparently presenting pico in an unflattering manner is taboo... its frusterating that the only way to succeed here is to not take a chance but just do the same old shit.

In other news im looking forward to getting back to my sketchbook tour, wrapping up the games i have in the making and taking an extended flash break over the summer.

Only thing I don't like is that white bit on the navigation buttons. You can see it to the right of this button here.

This may just be me, but white like that always looks unintentional like you just clipped that bit on by mistake when you exported the image. It looks a bit amatuer I think when I see white like that, for example if someone has a white background on there submission, it sometimes may give off that feeling. I'm not saying the site looks amatuer, just big areas of white can.

A place where it's not the same is the white border around the site. That looks kewel. What's the whole thing look like if you make the text ("Welcome to the new fuzz-media.com! As you can see everything") like a light or dark red?

Looks alright tho, woulda commented last night when you showed me but was busy. :D

Thanks for your feedback, i think i might change the nav bars to have a dary red or light red, see how it looks. I just wanted an edge between each button.

Also when the text starts becomming red it looks a bit off.. hard to read and such

French exam
In 30 mins. Wish me luck

Its not that hidden actually, I have the game that Radioactive24 was referring to, thats wrapping up finally after more than a year off pissing about on it.. i think i made countless tutorials with it.. was an awesome experience though Mindchamber was an awesome mentor. Im still shit at making games cause thats not my thing but now im not so shit lol.

Also making some sprite for a game called stranded 2

trailer is here i believe - http://www.xgenstudios.com/play/stranded2

Imma start a collab later this month.. i havent done that in awhile and i think the whole pico day thing made me feel very segregated..

Please do it in like 6 weeks? After my GCSE's :)

Man, Pico Day kinda sucked.

The Swain's movie was good, but it really did suck compared to ZombiePimp's short but amazingly animated movie.

I wish there were a lot more high quality submissions.

p.s. Luis, your game is impossible on a laptop touchpad. XD

I was disappointed. I expected a long-running killer animation, like Pico vs. Convict. Don't get me wrong, the game has amazing visuals. It's just that it wasn't a long enough experience.

Yep, I wasnt really feel it this year and in fact i was going to not even do anything at all and wouldnt have if i hadnt like taken a fatherly role in the community aspect of it. But still im glad i atleast showed up to the event and its cool to see young new talent show the first generation of flash artists what they can do, was talking to mindchamber and sometimes its cool just to be a witness to the event than a die hard competitor or whatever.

I may be back to it next year, i dunno yet. I think i like releasing pico things on days other than pico, there was alot of gems overlooked by the craze. Too many cliche things took the spotlight in my opinion.

Luis and the cheating bastard

hey Ryan Khatam.is in the monthyl voting thing for that ren and sitmpy movie he resubmitted to get an award and thus intot he top monthly vote.. luis hates him..

monthly voting time

Yes it's that time again...
You know what to do...

Pico's Day
This year felt a bit forced to me for some reason. Last year, it was all fun and crazy pico antics with most of the content being both original and interesting. This year felt like the same movies rushing towards the same goals. There were a few gems in there, but I felt a lot of people felt like they were racing for the money (blood, violence, guns, whatever gets it) instead of creativity.

Wii-rly werid timing

its 5:30AM, i'm sitting here talking on msna nd such when the door goes..

and its my Wii that i ordered on thursday.. yey!

od thing.. why int he middle of the dya and they say it comes 3-5 days of beign dispatched.. but i got an emial yesterya thta it was just dispatched.. 1 day delivery.. awesome..

Voting

I gotta go vote thursday and got no idea who to vote for... rar!

Pico Whores

I would also agree on that. I think some of the most interesting things were totally thrown into the shit heap, like it always is with NG. I'm not tooting my own horn, but I think people didn't vote as high as they would on my toon a while back because they didn't get that it wasn't supposed to make sense yet... oh well... I really, REALLY like Pico Pride (the gay one Luis mentioned) it was by far my favourite, and it pretty much got ignored and is super underrated. Go vote five on that one folks, it deserves it!

Wedding gift .. Remember that?

I'm gonna goto mexico this weekend and hopefully find a strange enough wedding present for Tom... i'll get two of em one ill send out from myself but id like something else contributed by users with signatures and such... if you'd like to get it in on that pm me... id prefer if you were in the states.... and unlike the sketchbook tour id need it back asap.

Wow, that had never crossed my mind... awesome! Sign me up!

Also, I'd think of something to get him, but I really can't think of anything.

tom's present

oh poo, way to exclude those of us in europe luis. gee, thanks alot... now how am i supposed ot put my not on something that people with talent have put their name on, eh? (lolcanada)

That Stranded game looks awwsome!

I know this sounds corny, but why don't we write an E-Card, that way more people can contribute and it has a personal touch to it?

Pico Day

Nowhere near as good as last year, but still on of the the best Flash days for a while. Shame W&B and SFB submitted then, they have gone unnoticed :P.

Other People on Pico Day

yay, i noticed that too Dep... it thought to myself... Why, Dim, why the hell would you and Tom go and do something like that. I woulda thought they might have put more consideration into the release. but i guess maybe they wanted too see how it would fair against the pico stuff.

The Brawler
Yeah, I'm not sure where Mindchamber got the idea that I wanted it to be a Pico Day submission. I thought we had seen eye to eye on that. I just didn't want it to get mixed in with all these things that were themed for the day, when really, the game isn't. It's been in production through two Pico Day's now, so it's as seperate from them as can be. It'll be out soon though. Just need Luis to get moving and it could be out within the week.

Pico Day (and how its over)

I think I agree with a lot of you that it didn't seem like there was much differntiation this year, or at least a lot of the ones that took a different approach got overlooked. There's definitely a few gems out there, I loved Pako's puppet pico thing, thats was hilarious. A lot of people took more of the action-edge instead of doing something fun with it which I guess in a way is dissapointing. Overall, I felt the whole day was really nice though, a lot of new submissions from new artists and all that.

I am pretty pissed that JimmySavage and Criteas didn't show up though. And I'm mad at myself for not pulling my long overdue movie out and finishing it up (again).

Brawler

Can't wait for that game, I remember seeing Neg's screens last year and his awesome backgrounds. It'll be wierd when it finally comes out, seems like it's just one of those things that's always talked about and it's just kind of too cool to be true.

Brawler

lol I've been waiting WAY to long for this thing. Neg, will it be WII compatable? I think that would be awesome, considering I own a WIi. I heard the Wii Muscomorpha was your doing, and I enjoy playing that one from time to time.

Wii Brawler
Aye, I did the conversion for Muscomorpha. As the strongest admin connection between WiiCade and the Flash community, I was actually the middle man for all of the conversions at the API's launch. Unfortunately, the brawler is just gonna be too intense for the Wii. It doesn't have the processing power of a modern computer, so it's not in the cards.

Pico Day Clones

All of them were very well done, however pretty much all of them had long action scenes with pico using the same gun (signiture gun it may be, like 10 sumbissions in one day utilizing it is kinda overkill). They all had great angles and fbf, but they all pretty much did the same thing. Luis' was original in the sense that it was a game albei violent like the rest it had a story (kinda) to it and a point. Still I wouldn't complain if more days were like that, lots of well done flash. Makes you want to make a pico animation, but then theres the whole year gap till the next pico day.

E-Card

And an E-Card for Tom would be a fantastic idea that way all members of NG have a chance to at least give him their regards and best wishes. Cuz like 100,000 toasters or blenders would be a bit much as wedding gifts from the users.
