Warlock : (06 February 2012 - 09:07 PM) This will be my new toy this Saturday - http://www.bestbuy.c...6&skuId=2769576
Theredbaron : (06 February 2012 - 04:11 AM) Life, tiss full of FARK YOU! Moments.
Warlock : (05 February 2012 - 09:20 AM) LOL :D
Theredbaron : (05 February 2012 - 02:57 AM) Haha, that is the same for me, cept with newegg. :) I checked both stores, cause they are both "good" ones, but newegg was always cheaper for what I wanted, Also, hen I ordered my case it said it would be a week or so to get here, got here in 2 days.
Warlock : (04 February 2012 - 01:27 PM) I'm a Tiger fan but only because when ever I've looked for stuff, Tiger always had what I needed and usually cheaper than NewEgg. I even get great delivery time with Tiger. A lot faster than what's stated! :D
Theredbaron : (03 February 2012 - 07:07 PM) I ended up getting one that tiger didn't have, so :P to tiger.
Theredbaron : (03 February 2012 - 07:07 PM) No where near. Tiger is nothing compared to Newegg. When I built my computer, they only had like, 20 vid cards. Newegg had over 100.
Warlock : (03 February 2012 - 11:05 AM) Tiger and NewEgg are roughly the same. Same selection, same prices. LOL
Theredbaron : (02 February 2012 - 03:59 PM) Eh, more of a newegg man myself. Fark tiger. They have shitty selection.
Warlock : (02 February 2012 - 10:37 AM) Check places like Tiger Direct! :D They always have some great deals going on.
Theredbaron : (01 February 2012 - 08:43 PM) Last I checked they were up 20-30 plus. But I haven't checked in a bit. Not since about a week or two after the big floods.
Warlock : (01 February 2012 - 08:52 AM) I haven't seen much change in prices. I've seen a bunch go down. :D
Theredbaron : (31 January 2012 - 05:26 PM) The bad thing is that now all the prices are going up. DAMN YOU GOD! YOUR FLOODS MAKE ME SPEND MORE!
Warlock : (31 January 2012 - 11:02 AM) LOL :D
Theredbaron : (30 January 2012 - 05:07 PM) You sir, are an arse. Need me a new drive, or 10.
Warlock : (30 January 2012 - 12:43 PM) You asked for it - 128MB Lexar Jump Drive, 2GB Kingston DataTraveler, 4GB PNY Optima SDHC (Digital Camera), 32GB Class 10 Adata SDHC (Camcorder), 8GB SanDisk Micro SDHC (my DS), 2GB Micro SD (wife/daughter's DS), 32GB Transcend SDHC Class 10 (Wii - DML), two 2GB Kodak SD, four 2GB SanDisk SD, 4GB Micro SDHC (Wii). All those 2GB SD cards I had for my Rock Band 3 DLC until I was able to emulate the NAND! :D
Theredbaron : (29 January 2012 - 02:49 PM) Lol, yes. O, just remembered more. I also have a 4gb nano g1 and a 4gb nano g2
Warlock : (29 January 2012 - 01:25 PM) LOL No, I just own a lot of electronics! :D
Theredbaron : (28 January 2012 - 05:43 PM) You sir, suck.
Warlock : (28 January 2012 - 12:26 PM) I wasn't counting my SD cards or my thumb drives. LOL That would really blow you out of the water! :D

Ok everyone wanted this tut so here it is.





Step 1) Create a new 500x500 Document with 72 pxls resolution and a transparent Background

Step 2) Go to Filter>Render>Clouds

Step 3) Now, Go to Filter>Distort>Wave. Use the following Settings:
Number of Generators: 999
Wavelength: min-10,max-230
Aplitude: min-5,max-76
Scale: Horiz.-1,vert.-1
Type: Square
Undefined Areas: Repeat Edge Pixels

Click "Ok"


Step 4) Press CTRL+J to Duplicate the current layer

Step 5) Go to Filter>Sketch>Chrome and use the following Settings:
Detail: 7
Smoothness: 10

Click "Ok"

Step 6) Now, go back to Filter>Distort>Wave and use theses Settings
Number of Generators: 999
Wavelength: min-10,max-230
Aplitude: min-5,max-76
Scale: Horiz.-1,vert.-1
Type: Sine
Undefined Areas: Repeat Edge Pixels


Step 7) Set the top layers blend mode to "Overlay" and press CTRL+E to merge

Step 8) Press CTRL+J to duplicate it
Step 9) Go to Filter>Distort>Pinch. Use 100% for the "Amount". Click "Ok"
Step 10) Press CTRL+F 3 times.
Step 11) Set the layers Blend Mode to "Lighten" and press CRL+E to Merge

Step 12) Now, just Color it using CTRL+B, not CTRL+U, to get a better coloring tone. If you are Curious, I used these settings for coloring it:

Midtones:
Green- 50
Blue- 100

Shadows:
Green- 50
Blue- 100

Step 13) If you want, you can press CTRL+J to Duplicate the layer and set the top layer to "Soft Light" and then CTRL+E to merge it to add a nicer effect to it, in which I used.


This is the tutorial I used to make my first piece in my gallery it is made by Ryoku
