Title: Some Swanky Pictures


Xenophon - June 3, 2005 06:55 AM (GMT)
As the title suggests I have some cool pictures. Note, that I have made none of these, but have found them across the internet. Most of these are nothing more then eye candy, though maybe some of them could be used on our new website???

1. Sentry
http://img201.echo.cx/img201/6219/sentry20zh.jpg I give this one a 9/10 since I like the way the author conveyed the image of a sentry on duty. Maybe we could photoshop this and use it as part of our new website.

2. Yin-Yang
http://img201.echo.cx/img201/3897/yinyang200423tr.jpg
I would give this one also a 9/10. This is because it is basically two images in one, but instead of seeming crowded one image enhances the other. I believe this is very skillfully done, though a little 'dull' in colour. Also I have this currently as my desktop.

3. Dark Knight
http://img135.echo.cx/img135/7750/darkknight1edited3yk.jpg
I would give this one a 8/10. The only problem I have with this is the background. I find it is too orange.

4. Samurai Guy http://img201.echo.cx/img201/271/5a27e8049...d1edited6ya.jpg
I give this a 8/10, as it is cool but not fantastic. This guy was going to be my avator until I found the one I have now.

5. Salvation Army http://img201.echo.cx/img201/4864/salvatio...lkuo2edited.jpg
I give this a 7/10. Its good, but it dosen't have a lot of back ground detail.

6. Eyes of Sahara http://img201.echo.cx/img201/2811/5ed48c9eb846b44a17rw.jpg
I give this a 9/10. I don't know why, but I love this picture (note that the girl in it, just put on make-up; she is not part of a cult or some such).

7. Spiderman
http://img201.echo.cx/img201/5788/spectacu...ncvr17byeld.jpg
I give it a 8/10. This is a pretty sweet picture of spiderman (possible comic cover) and one of the best I have ever seen. The only thing I don't like is all the black, though, agruablly that is one of the reasons it is so good.

8. Meteor http://img201.echo.cx/img201/451/7d74dc96666845e212rt.jpg
I would have to say a 7/10 for this one. This is cool pic of what would happen if a big ass piece of rock struck the earth.

9. Astroid
http://img201.echo.cx/img201/2663/a001ab8962aebe1b10fs.jpg
A 8/10 from me on this one. An even cooler event takes place with a big rock.

10. Don't Whisper in the Wind http://img201.echo.cx/img201/893/donotwhis...thewind20xl.jpg
A 9/10 on this one. While there is no cool explosions, there is a lot of detail put into it. Its a nice, somber piece.

I'm sure more will follow, but I haven't be looking recently for neat desktops. Devaint Art is plagued with crap, and its search button is only for paying members.

If any of you have a cool pic you want to post, please do so by uploading it to imageshack.

Whenever I click on any of the links I get redirected to image shack. <_<

NulliSecundus - June 3, 2005 12:05 PM (GMT)
As do I.

Lhorkan - June 3, 2005 02:21 PM (GMT)
Yeah, you guys know as much of urls as a chicken. :lol: You'll need to copy the link, remove the [image=] stuff, and you'll see the image. Xeno copied and pasted the wrong text I suppose. :) Nice pics BTW Xeno. ;)

zelda12 - June 3, 2005 02:26 PM (GMT)
:lol: ah now I see! :D

Kaso - June 3, 2005 04:41 PM (GMT)
Maybe I should use the samurai as my avatar. It would match my smilie. :kaso:

Xenophon - June 4, 2005 04:02 AM (GMT)
Oops, sorry about that. I was in a rush, so I didn't check to see weither they worked (image shack said all I had to do was copy and paste <_< )

As for the Samurai, go head Kaso, it would look cool. But remember you have a size requirement for your avator so you might have to photoshop it.

Edit Xeno- Yes! I fixed the stupid redirect. Now clicking on them will take you straight to the picture. Note that the picture you see is actually smaller then the ones I see :unsure: Not sure how you would scale it up.

NulliSecundus - June 4, 2005 04:07 AM (GMT)
Some of those pictures are pritty sweet, you've got good taste Xeno.

Kaso - June 4, 2005 04:20 AM (GMT)
Eh, I'll just keep my pitbull for now.

Edit Xeno- I figured as much. It was the same with me, too much effort for such a small thing.

NulliSecundus - June 4, 2005 04:24 AM (GMT)
I couldnt see Kaso without that picture, it just looks good.

Kaso - June 4, 2005 04:26 AM (GMT)
I use that picture on MSN and as the background for my cellphone. If you can make banners in RV I'll use it there, too. :kaso:

NulliSecundus - June 4, 2005 04:32 AM (GMT)
lol *salutes* the pitbull, Kaso's standard.

Bthizle1 - June 4, 2005 06:25 AM (GMT)
They are kinda....wierd?

Edit Xeno- How so Bthizle?

This thread put me in mind of the Mead Hall over at the totalwar.org. And there I found this.

That deserves to be on our frontpage of the website.

Kaso do you realize the pit-bull represents peace and love in the majority of Asian countries!

zelda12 - June 5, 2005 11:02 AM (GMT)
They obviously have different Pit Bull Terriers then. :lol:

Kaso - June 5, 2005 04:40 PM (GMT)
Of course I knew...Peace and love was what I was trying to express to you guys... :kaso:

Bthizle1 - June 5, 2005 05:29 PM (GMT)
They are wierd because it's like anime looking stuff. I dunno, I just don't like that kind of stuff. Some of it looks kind of evil/gothic, but that's just what I think.
