[sintax321]

I'm looking for a PS battle. 1 vs 1. No 3d apps just PS and all it can do(pics also if u want). Moderator sets rules after other party accepts challange not before. Any takers?

[sintax321]

Come on anybody. It is just for fun so it doesn't matter about your skill level.:)

[Ryan]

=ryan=

[sintax321]

Sounds good man we jus need dan or lost to set the rules. I'll PM dan and see what he says:)

*edit* Dans PM box is full I guess we will have to hope he finds this soon:)

[telekinesis]

[sintax321]

Sounds good. Just the apps listed no flash?

[lostinbeta]

Right, you may only use the apps listed, not any program like it, but that program itself :)

[sintax321]

So no flash sounds good then. Lets do battle:ninja:

[telekinesis]

New rule....flash only! Muhahahahahah, just kidding, same rules apply, just wanted to tense up sintax! :P

[Makaveli]

matrix huh, cool! if any of y'all mix up the faces with bodies y'all got my votes! :P ...this is gonna be interesting

[sintax321]

Dan I just about **** for a second. You are a funny guy:evil:

[Ryan]

is it possible maybe to bump the due date a like till sunday. i got a busy week. i have to train some new employees so ill be at work more then i would like to this week. but i should be able to work on it saturday. if not its ok, im sure i could work with it at home. i gotta get back tro work though. later.

=ryan=

[Ryan]

this may seem like a stupid question, but what do you mean by matrix? do you now of like a site or anything that might have an example, or something. thank you.

=ryan=

[sintax321]

Ya if dan will change the date to sunday I have no problem with that. I think he means just anything to do with the movie The Matrix. As long as your piece has something to do wit the movie u should be fine:)

[Ryan]

thanks, i wasnt sure if he ment the movie, or what. thanks. this should be interesting.

[lostinbeta]

Yep, the movie.

Your due date is now <B>November 24th</B>.

[sintax321]

I think I'm done so when ever yuo are ready we can post:)

[lostinbeta]

Cool, just as a notice, if both of you are done early, feel free to post them early.

[sintax321]

Well I'll wait until he is ready. I don't want anybody to feel rushed:)

[lostinbeta]

I know, I was just saying.... when he is done, he doesn't have to wait til the submit date.... that causes more tension....lol.

[Ryan]

i havnt even begun yet. i was not expecting this week to be as busy as it has been. ive been at at work for 13 hours almost every day this week. eh. before i join a battle next time ill see what im doin first. hahaha. thanks for putting up with me though.

=ryan=

[sintax321]

Np when ever u are ready.

I like tension:evil:
Builds character:P

[morse]

hah, Sintax, I just about sh*t my pant laughing when I saw yours... Thoes expressions... Sorry, I wont give anyting more away. =)

[sintax321]

[h88]

Haha, cool!

[lostinbeta]

LOL, that is awesome :)!!!

[sintax321]

Thanks u guys. I hope he posts something soon.:)

[sintax321]

Well it is 12:21 Moday where i live and we still don't have an entry from Ryan it would be nice if he could at least post if he has anything to submit at all.

[lostinbeta]

What is it with all these battles where only one person submits!?

There were like 2 battles that were complete and voted on, and like 3 where this happened :(

[sintax321]

I think we need to put "Serious Use Only".If u aren't going to make something don't accept or start a challange. If for any reason u may not be done in time ask for a extension or give a good reason why u can't compleate. A good competator will always give u more time(only weak ppl like a cheap win). I will gladly give Ryan more time if has a good reason for needing it. I want some compatition not technical wins like this.

[lostinbeta]

Yeah, and I could always extend the due date.

Well it is 1 day AFTER the due date... so I guess that automatically makes you the winner sintax :)

[sintax321]

Well lets wait a day or two for him to respond if he does have something I wil lgladly let him submit it.

[telekinesis]

If not then I am sure I could make one.....doesn't matter?

[lostinbeta]

Ok, we will give it a day or two, if nothing... either dan or I will submit an entry... this will not go unbattled!!!!!

[morse]

I feel sorry for you sintax... Going against Dan or Lost... Course I don't know if they can use the lasso tool like you :)

Not to say you cant beat them, mind you.

[sintax321]

Hey I don't care who it is just as long as it is a battle. If I get my nuts handed to me at least it was a fare battle this time.

PS: I never use the lasso tool. I do all my croping with the eraser.:)

[lostinbeta]

I use quick masks for cropping. There are like 854.22 ways of cropping in Photoshop....LOL.

[sintax321]

Ya I tried a lot of them and when it came down to it I found I could do better with just the eraser than with any other method.

[Ryan]

ahhhh. im sorry for waisting your time sintax, i just got home, i was at a funeral down south over the weekend. wasnt expecting a death in the family. i dont have anything to post, i was suppose to work on it saturday night, but i ended up 13 hours away from my computer..... eh. i feel reeally bad that i entered this battle and didnt submit. especially because it was one vs. one. your submision looked really good. prolly would have won anyways. ah well. maybe next time :)

sorry again

=ryan=

[lostinbeta]

I am sorry to hear about the loss Ryan. I know what its like to lose a family member (or 2, or 3, or 4, or 5, or 6).

My greatest sympathies.

[Ryan]

its nice to know, so many people you run into today dont seem to care about anything. thanks man.

=ryan=

[lostinbeta]

No problem man, as I said... I know what it's like to lose family, I have lost a lot of mine.

And about a lot of people not caring... where I live that is too true, most the people around here care more about beatin people up than they do anything else. It is hard to find a true friend where I am at, they all talk crap about you behind your back or are willing to betray you in a heartbeat (luckily I have some of the greatest friends you can find).

[Ryan]

yeah, i dont live in a crazy hardcore city or anything, but it seems like finding someone who isnt completely selfish is pretty hard. i got some good friends as well. sometimes i wonder how people can be proud of the lives they live. i dont know. people are so ignorant! but. its late, and i have to work tomorrow morning, and i dont want to get way off topic on the forum... so im off to bed. ill see ya later though. thanks again for the support. it really is appriceated.

=ryan=

[sintax321]

Hey man thanks for posting. I knew something like that probably came up sorry to hear about your loss.:(

[lostinbeta]

Hrmm, is it ok with you if I extend this to December 1st (this upcoming sunday)?

I won't be able to work on this wednesday or thursday, but I am sure someone will be able to come up with one by then (including myself so if someone doesn't post before I finish, I will post mine).

[sintax321]

Oh sure everyone has seen mine now they need time to beat it.:P :P :P J/K

Sure take what u need for time. I would rather have a true loss than another empty win:)

[morse]

If I had a picture of myself I would enter. :) But I dont.

[lostinbeta]

You don't need a picture of yourself, just any Photoshop image you make with the theme of The Matrix.

[sintax321]

So Am i just taking a default win then or is some one going to post something to challange me. U have an advantage because u can see my entry so if someone wants to make something quick.
