Quote by dslasseyWe're well on our way
to getting 20 members. We already have 16!
If we added that sort of rule, it'd make it seem like it's mandatory, which it
shouldn't be. Some people might not want their old work in the gallery... for
whatever reason.
OK, then should we have something along the lines of "Optional: If you have
any gallery items inspired by music, please present them after being approved
into the group". That way members won't feel obliged to present their works
Quote by dslasseyI kinda like this scan:
LINK
Note the keyword "kinda". The BECK gallery sucks on MT, and it's hard
to find any decent ones through google as well. I really just want anything
serious looking with a guitar (because I did come across quite a few images of
cute girls with guitars... but bleh). As for headers, I guess I would only
need... 4? One for the about me, another for my friends; then one for latest
wallpaper (gonna add that soon); and then one for gifts I've received and such
(which I also need to add...).
And now I feel spoiled again.
And I feel awful that I haven't had any time to make you a gift.
;_;
Well, you can always check out the gallery on AP, I
have an account there so getting a scan isn't a problem. Just look around there
and if you find something you like give me the link; else I'll use the scan you
gave me the link to, k?
Aw, don't say it like that! It's not like I'm making you make me a gift
Take it slowly, you don't need to make it ASAP
Quote by dslassey
Yeah, tell me about it. She's bloody brilliant. I wonder where she get's all the
time to make them for others. I can barely find the time to make one.
Pande is just a genius in making layouts
I admire her skills
And yea, she make lots of layouts for other people... Maybe Pande has this
secret technique to make layouts fast and nice
Quote by Dev Okay, so ya made me cry. AND NOW
YOU OWE ME SOMETHING. (not really)
And now I see that you are into power metal and symphonic power metal. Would you
be interested in joining a group I formed, like, two weeks ago? It's called
depths-of-sound. Check it out! If it seems like something you'd be interested
in, please join!
AAAH! Blackmail! But on
a more serious note, it's absolutely something I'd be interested in
Music often inspires my work, so I went ahead joined. Thanks for the invitation!
Quote by dslassey'Art Chart' actually
sounds pretty good. I like
it, and I think it works!
Again you're asking me as if I'm the only one to decide. Talk with everyone else
to see if they'd agree. We are a team afterall. P=
Wow, sure..... if ya want to, that is. So... what am I supposed to do? Like tell
ya the color's I'd like you to use and whatnot?
Cool, so we're gonna use it? *feels proud for naming something*
I'll go talk to Saku, I'll ask her about it
*points to 'Requests' section'* Too lazy to type it all...
merged: 07-25-2008 ~ 04:43am
Quote by dslasseyYeah, we're gonna use
it. Though, it's not needed yet. Not enough new work coming in and stuff.
Though, the group is growing at a steady pace. Soon we'll be able to start a
contest! *so excited*
Well, I wanted BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad, but all of the scans I like have a
lot of text, and would need to be vectored, or something. I was thinking a
grungy theme, with music notes and other music symbols floating around. As for
colors, I was invisioning a pale, subdued green layout, with various shades of
greens and tans. But, as I mentioned before, not a lot of good beck scans. I'll
have to come up with something else. :/
Oooh, I can't wait for a contest! I think we'll need 20+ members for that,
though it's not that important as all members are wallers and serious people
But I'm looking forward to the section when we'll have enough new works! Now we
only have older ones which members introduce to the group. By the way, I was
thinking of adding a rule that asks members to present their music-related
artworks after being admitted in the group. How does that sound?
Look, you send me the links to the scans you'd like and I'll see what I can do
about them, OK? If they need to be partially vectored, no problem, I've done it
before. Plus, you deserve a great UP because you're awesome! :3 *hugs*
And if you want any headers (like I have) or any other graphics, just let me
know.
I was only able to code my userpage with lotsa help. Most of it's basic coding.
But a few minutes, Pande offered to make me a new layout.
Apparently she's back in the userpage design business or something.
I didn't find out how to put a layout until recently...
The lovely complex layout was the first layout I ever put on
I can only do basic coding too
And wow! Pande is going to make you a new layout? It's going to be so cool~
Pande is just a genius is userpage designing!
Quote by dslasseyThis is beyond awesome!
The abstractness is so.... amazing.
When viewing it and looking a specific part of the piece, one could interpret it
in so many different ways. Like the green orbs on the face. Are they eyes? Or
could they be some sort of tear?
This just screams so many profound feelings, that it's hard to comment on it.
Very nice, Tofu!
Thank you! 'Tis the beauty of abstract art, it doesn't
have to be a single thing.
Quote: Hey Ori-chan, do you still
want to be the gallery admin? Because there are several people who have posted
past works that could be added into the gallery, and I don't want to do
anything, in case you wanted to.... or something.
P=
Sure.
I'd love to... Just write my status XP and I'll check our members galleries and
see how can I add stuff.
Quote by dslasseyYeah, we;ll have to do
more planning on this musical/anime highlight before we implement it. We should
really run it by the others, to see what they have to say.
We're not gonna start the Lister's Choice until we have more members, ya know.
It'd make more sense. P=
Working together is the shite, ne?
I'm not working on one.... much too busy to even start one. I was just
expressing my desire to have a new one.
Oh, oh, I've got and idea! How about 'Art Chart'?! Sounds cheesy, I know, but it
works!
Can we make an announcement and ask the members if they want an anime/film
review section? Maybe some members will agree and even want to contribute. It
would be a good thing to have an interactive group, not just the admins running
things and members posting... Just my two cents.
If you want, I can make you a UP I've
got lots of time and don't plan to wall, plus I'm back in the 'skinning'
business.
Quote by dslassey
I beg to differ. So many people like you, and talk to you.
Sure, go post in the group guestbook. That way, Pande will see them. I know next
to nothing about codes, while she's our code master (I barely survived adding
one affiliate).
Lots of people like you too!
Ok ok~ I will go and post in the guestbook now~
I think your coding is good... Your userpage is really nice
Quote by dslasseyYeah, but we can't call
it Billboard-something-or-other, because
Billboard would techincally be able to
sue us for copyright infringement.... So we need to come up with a name for our
own Music Chart. P:
Like, movie musicals, or theatrical musicals? o:
You should probably ask Saku or something. She wanted me to drop my Band
Highlight in favor of the Listener's Choice, but I refused to drop Band
Highlight (it was one of the reasons I started the group in the firdt place).
But yeah, it seems I have too much say in the group, so you best ask the others.
I hate making decisions...
Nah, I think I'll just drop the project. I have an other, better idea that is
using a song from the same band. But first, I'll be doing a different one.
:3
HOW COULD YOU STEAL MY USERPAGE COLORS!? YOU BETRAYED ME!
Nah, that's okay. I don't care really... and I really wanna change
it.
I shall go research the matter
There HAS to be a word/phrase depicting both music and art!
Any kind of musicals! The more, the merrier, right?
And I don't think we should drop any of the two, especially since they're both
good ideas. Come on, other groups complain about not having any ideas and we
have too many! Anyway, we'll have the 'Band Highlight' changed once in two weeks
and the 'Listener's Choice' will be held once a month. I think it's not too
complicated and we can handle it.
I sense the boss wants to rebel against his 'subordinates'... We'll
work it out somehow, don't worry. Let's all work together and it will be much
easier!
I wanna see your new UP! Make it fast :3 Or else...Can't think of a good threat
right now, I'll get back at ya I dost
not betray thou, thy UP colors are pretty and require to be stolen (I love this
old English)!
Hello! Thanks for the fav! And thanks for the invite to your group!
and yeah! Blue Oyster Cult! I knew I forgot something when making that list in
the group guestbook. xD
Quote by dslasseyI dunno if Anja saw my
message asking for them or not. Either she's taking her time, or she forgot I
asked. P= Oh well, we don't really need them right this minute anyway.
Because it's a list with the best on it, the whole thing reminded me of a music
chart, like the Billboard 200 or
something. If we went with the something like that, we could call the three
featured wallpapers: "The #1 Spot", "The #2 Spot", and
"The #3 Spot" respectively.
Yeah, Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch is about music. I hate that series so
much though. I have some of the manga.... good thing I didn't spend my own money
on it. P=
Some music related ones that I really like are Nodame Cantabile (sp?), BECK:
Mongolian Chop Squad, and Nana. There has to be more. But again, there aren't
too many, so my first concern rears its ugly head: What happens when we run out
of series to feature?
Not quite what I need, but thanks for helping. I need an anime spout of water
from a fountain. I can't vector real water for shit, so I need something to base
it off of. :/
It sounds interesting, I think we can use it! It would be a more original way to
promote artwork and we don't copy any other group's idea either!
MMPPP doesn't appeal to me either, it's got too much shoujo stuff in it I couldn't stand watching it. But some of the members might like it, and it
features music. So, we might write a small paragraph about it in lack of
series... Here are some more, this is what we have now: BECK: Mongolian Chop
Squad, Gravitation, Kiniro no Corda, Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch, Nana,
Nodame Cantabile and Princess Tutu.
Not too long That's what I found before I got too bored and gave up looking. I
was thinking, how about we review musicals after we're done with anime series?
After all, they do feature music...
Why don't you look for a tutorial to paint water? That should be easier than
vectoring it... I searched but I couldn't find any good ones, only stuff I find
are real fountains, so sorry for not being able to help.
Quote by dslassey
It's called Inkscape. I still haven't gotten a chance to use it though
>.>
Oh, and the group I started is up. It's called [depths-of-sound]
Check it out! If it sounds interesting, please join. We need as many members as
we get. Also, you're pretty popular (judging by all that guestbook traffic you
get), so you'd probably draw in several members. =D
Inkscape... I think I heard it before... Or actually had spot it on someone's
computer before
Oh! Yay!~ You made the group!
It seems really interesting!~ So of course I'll join!
And I don't think that I'm popular...
I'll ask some people whether if they want to join...
And do you want to affiliate your group with my groups? Some people might see
the affiliates
I'll be sure to come to you when I need to be cheered
up severely :p
Thank you so much for the comment, I'm glad
you like it and feel special, there will be more out so stay
tune ^^
*hugs* be good <3
Hey, I'll be here is ya do need cheering up.
Of course I will stay tuned! 'Tis the reason I watched you! I will be looking
forward to your next submittion with anticipation.
*returns hug* Would I ever be anything but good? P=
Oh, and I don't mean to be a pest, but did you see my invitation to joining the
group I started? o:
lol you might be evil underneath...no?
Oh yea! *hits head* I saw it, spaced out from the music on
my Ipod ^^; Gee I have alot of groups already...but ehh for you I'll
join...damn soft spot of mine.
Quote by dslasseyHiya, Yoru! I responded
to your question on Dark-Wallies. I totally accept, if all of the other staff
don't mind.
Also, I asked if you'd like to affiliate with my new group ?
Take care!
oh we will wait a little more and see what will happen.
no problem but im busy now i will add affiliate later on.
anyway would you like to chat with me?
Quote by dslasseyOoh La La!~ I love the
colors going on there (who doesn't, right?).
Once again, you show off your brilliant talent!
And I can't believe someone actually drew me. I feel
so... honored!
Truly marvelous work, Kitten. And you already know that I love ya as well!
>...<
I'll be sure to come to you when I need to be cheered
up severely :p
Thank you so much for the comment, I'm glad
you like it and feel special, there will be more out so stay
tune ^^
Quote by dslasseyMy internet is behaving
itself today.... but for how long, I cannot say. >3>
Okay, I'll go bug Anja to make more (she likes doing it, so 'bug' isn't the
right term ). I've been thinking about the Artwork Highlight, too. I wanted
to call it something flashy (similar to how dark-wallies has 'Highdarkened), but
I guess just "Artwork Highlight" sounds good. As for the "Anime
Highlight", what exactly do you have in mind? Because there's not a whole
lot of series that focus around music. It'd just be a shame if we ran out of
series to highlight, y'know? Especially if people looked forward to that one
particular section.
I'm not too popular around MT either.
But I'm gonna try my best to get people to join! *salutes*
YAY for promo wallie. I'm kinda working on two, simultaniously. One has come
across a problem, for I need a water spout aiming upwards - the type of spout
from a fountain. I can't find any to vector, so that one's been put on hold.
Woohoo! Can't wait to see them , the group needs love! <3
Hmmm.... I guess we could call it something flashy, just have to think of
something that relates both to art and music And we could change it whenever we find something worthy of mention.
As for the anime, there are a few anime series focusing on music:
- Kiniro no Corda (I've heard it's recent)
- Princess Tutu (music heavily influenced by classical European music)
- Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch (the characters sing a lot, or so I've heard
-yeah, I know it's girly but it has to do with music, right? )
..and I'm sure there are many more, I'll hunt them down and make a list
:3
Quote by DevI saw the thumbnail and knew it
was yours (again). It just looks like something you'd wall.
I'm still too predictable.
Quote by DevThe patterns and textures you've
used fit perfectly - I'm especially lovin' those pillows.
I
love all those patterns, especially the floral ones.
Quote by DevWell, it is your work, so it
should attract people. You were a featured member for crying out loud!
Do you think I'm that renowned after the feature? It
would be cool but I kind of doubt it.
Quote by DevBut we're doing pretty good so
far, and chubbykitty and Anime4Life are gonna be making wallpapers for the
group! We'll probably get more members from their submissions as well.
I think it's great how everyone is willing to promote the
group, it's so heartwarming.
That she does. Wanna link to her deviantart gallery? She has many more chibis.
My brother does too...
Any chance of me getting a spoiler as to what your wallpaper is gonna be?
P=
Sure! I'd love to see her DA haha
I'll be using artwork from Ayumi Kasai for the
wall ;D I've only made 1 wall from her works so I want to keep making more xD
Quote by dslassey
Well, as I mentioned before, it's a program created specifically for vectoring,
so the file size of the program was relatively small (seeing how it has only one
function). I have yet to try it out still, for I have been super busy.
Yup~ What's the program called? I
think you told me before though.. But I forgot
Remember to tell me how the program is after you tried it out~
Quote by dslassey
I'm working on one, but I've been busy with this one, completey unrelated to
wallpapers project that's been sucking away all of my time. I know that Saku is
making one, as well as Pande. So if ya wanna wait, wait for them. Waiting for me
would be a waste of time, seeing how mine'll take a while to get up onto MT.
My cousin drew it for me as a birthday present. Oh how I wish I could draw like
that, but it was never meant to be. My twin got all of those skills. P=
I guess I should probably point out that my cousin drew it.
o=
Oh well Erdbeermilch already submitted a promo wall so I'll just submit mine
whenever I finish xD And oh! You're cousin has a really cute style!
;o;
Quote by DevANJA! I've missed you terribly!
My stupid internet died for like... two whole days. It keeps doing that!
That's unfortunate, hope you get it repaired soon.
Quote by DevThe only possible explaination
for this would be the hundreds (even thousands) of fires that are ravaging
California. It's the largest fire problem in Californian history - that's mega
bad.
I hope you're out of harms way, I'm from a place with
rather mild climate so I've never really seen a forest fire (or any other kind
of natural disaster).
Quote by DevOh, and have you started on the
promo wallie?
It's already finished, I've just uploaded it.
I sure hope it attracts some people, though I probably shouldn't hold my hopes
too high it's not CG or ecchi after all.
Quote by DevNo, no, not at all. It'd be
fantastic to feature classical musicians.
That's great, I'm
really looking foward to this group stuff so far.
OK, then should we have something along the lines of "Optional: If you have any gallery items inspired by music, please present them after being approved into the group". That way members won't feel obliged to present their works

When I was making this I wondered the whole time: "What do I have to smoke to make the cigarette smoke look like this?"
I think the group is coming along nicely so far, don't you agree? =3
Actually my plan failed... I'll make one soon... but it won't be considered a promo wallie anymore, just a wall for the gallery.
