2006-08-22 [Yuriona]: Same for the betting I believe.

2006-08-22 [Calico Tiger]: Oh... My... Gawd... You all are garanteeing that I'm never going to accept the offer of being a judge XD I cannot actually judge these (or the previous ones). They're all so good! :O *leg humps all of the entries*

2006-08-22 [Yuriona]: *video tapes*

2006-08-22 [Perplexity]: Damn, Rogue - that's awesome =S Nice "coup de grace" moment! I hope my entry can stand against it in the eyes of the judges...

*hits Cali's nose with rolled up newspaper*

2006-08-22 [Perplexity]: You have until Wednesday, tomorrow, to post your entry, Cia_Mar. Betting closes tomorrow, too. Judging starts on Thursday.

2006-08-22 [TheRogue]: i KNOW yours stands up to mine.. they are two different takes on the same idea.. you have totally great stuff going on in yours.. and i haven't worked on armor with you yet.. but i'm going to.. you have got it goin on chica!

2006-08-22 [Cia_mar]: ok! thanks

2006-08-22 [Perplexity]: oh wait, sorry - you have until THURSDAY, day after tomorrow, to post your entry. And bets close tomorrow at midnight. Judging will begin on Friday. 
Sorry for the confusion!

2006-08-22 [TheRogue]: keep seeing things i need to fix on my pic.. last one.. promise!

2006-08-22 [Cia_mar]: ah..ok...

2006-08-22 [Perplexity]: lmao
leave it alone! There's lots of stuff to fix on mine, but I'm satisfied that I did a good job, so I'm walking away now! *keeps peeking over shoulder*

2006-08-22 [Cia_mar]: lol

2006-08-22 [TheRogue]: alright.. NO MORE..haha.. i was just HATING that scabbard >.<

2006-08-22 [Cia_mar]: did you take that out with your computer? that was a clean edit!

2006-08-22 [Yuriona]: Dang it! I keep coming to see the new entries and just see updates! *gooses Plex and Rogue*

2006-08-22 [Perplexity]: I didna do anyfing >.< I was fixin' a "center>" problem *points to Rogue* it's all his fault!!!

2006-08-22 [Yuriona]: Uh huh... *gooses Plex again* That's for fibbing!

2006-08-22 [Perplexity]: d'oh *rubs bottom*

2006-08-22 [TheRogue]: haha!! yeah on the computer.. LOL thanks Cia... my fault...keep changing.. no more promise *crosses heart*

2006-08-22 [Cia_mar]: that is ok... i am still having to finish mine.. don't think it is what anyone would have expected though! lol

2006-08-22 [Urmando The Elfling]: Reaching the end of my drawing....dun dun dun DUUUN!

2006-08-22 [Channy]: In regards to the pen question, I used a .005, 01 and 08 Sakura micron ink pens :3 my 08 kept dying on me D: I contemplated just using a sharpie but >_< meh. Rogue o.O spiffy entry *novice at inking*

2006-08-22 [Channy]: *hides from Urmando* MEEEEEP >_>

2006-08-22 [Channy]: This is lame to say but I think my favorite part of Plex's drawing is the fingers/toes of the dragon :3 they're so delicate looking...like spider legs o.O

2006-08-22 [Elisha Kelly]: hey did anyone else ink theirs digitally ?

2006-08-22 [Urmando The Elfling]: Nop, Mine is by hand, also with Micron 08, 03 and 01

2006-08-22 [Channy]: o-o we could ink digitally?

2006-08-22 [Elisha Kelly]: yup.... I can't do traditional inks as I don't have anythink to ink with traditionally :P not yet anyways... one of these days I'll try with a brush... but for now I am doinging it on the puter :}

2006-08-22 [Channy]: Gah! Oh well. @_x Microns are good too. I think I'd kill my art if I tried to use, like, a brush or dip pen. Personally, I want some copic markers to experiment with but...I don't have the money to experiment at the moment

2006-08-22 [Elisha Kelly]: :P same here... all my money is about to go on acrylic paint and new brushes :D

2006-08-22 [Elisha Kelly]: oh and... Damn I'm good at drawing coral... :P

2006-08-22 [Channy]: [Mom] and I did that a few weeks back :P nothing too expensive or elaborate, just enough to get started. Hooray Wal*Mart XD Now just to find something to paint o-o

2006-08-22 [Urmando The Elfling]: One more shadow... then my "monster" is ready..Whraarrrr

2006-08-22 [Elisha Kelly]: GRRRRRR Death to WAl-MART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! damn them *shakes fist*

2006-08-22 [Channy]: o_o *retracts the wal*mart comment and dims the light on Urmando's monster* >_>;;;;; Look! new shadows! lol, kidding :P I'm excited to see the competition! >3 Wonder which monster would win in a fist fight?

2006-08-22 [Channy]: *paces* o_o!!

2006-08-22 [Urmando The Elfling]: Fist? How about claws...?

2006-08-22 [Channy]: lol yeah. My monster probably couldn't make a fist if he wanted. I can see it now...
*CRACK*
The Watcher: Gah! I broke a nail! ;_;

2006-08-22 [Channy]: @_x I give up

2006-08-22 [stuffAEAmade]: I love the ruffled sleaves Urmando. :D

2006-08-22 [Urmando The Elfling]: You give up?

2006-08-22 [Urmando The Elfling]: Thanx [stuffAEAmade] Just wanted to make the contrast as big as possible....

2006-08-22 [Urmando The Elfling]: And for the smart asses between you: No, this is not "my" Mother-in-law... (She could not get, childeren)

2006-08-22 [Urmando The Elfling]: Ok, [Channy] this is what I mean with "thinking out of the Box" To add an extra element to the subject, in my case: Humor

2006-08-22 [Yuriona]: *is reminded of the chukacabra (sp?) for some reason*

2006-08-22 [Urmando The Elfling]: Who...?

2006-08-22 [Perplexity]: El Chupacabra - I think it is a south american or mexican demon thing. She looks like a mean old dog, that mother in law lol Nice ink work, Urmando!

2006-08-22 [Perplexity]: Ok, Ely and Cia - I am on the edge of my seat waitin' on you two, gals!

2006-08-22 [Lothuriel]: I love them all!

2006-08-22 [Channy]: lol, i don't like honestly GIVE UP but it's just o_o; meep. I knew it was gonna be a mother-in-law though >3 *gets a point*

2006-08-22 [Channy]: The picture is amazing though Urmando :3 *gives you ten Channy points and a cookie*

2006-08-22 [Urmando The Elfling]: :-P

2006-08-23 [Urmando The Elfling]: Eats Cookie and Pats [Channy]....

2006-08-23 [Channy]: moo :B

2006-08-23 [Channy]: No matter what, it's aaaaaall a learning experience ^_^

2006-08-23 [Urmando The Elfling]: That's the spirit [Channy]! Do you also have the feeling that this contest is rasing your Art Bar?

2006-08-23 [Channy]: indeed :3 it's also kinda teaching me different ways to approch challenges (in art I mean) like, I'm terrible at cross-hatching, and I would have never thought to try it because at my current cross level, it's not a thought-of option for me usually. But seeing all the cross-hatching, and the different depth you can put in with regular bold inks (like I do) I wanna try to better my inking. like I said earlier *inking novice*

2006-08-23 [Perplexity]: You and me both, Channy. This was a really great lesson for me.

2006-08-23 [Cia_mar]: great pic Urmando! Kudos!!!!

2006-08-23 [Urmando The Elfling]: ThanX Cia.....

2006-08-23 [Remos Page]: oh perplexity and rogue thay are so good !!

2006-08-23 [Urmando The Elfling]: Yes, I agree the judges will have a tough job with them, BUYAAH!!!

2006-08-23 [Elisha Kelly]: so sleepy... but must finish inking... must finish...

2006-08-23 [TheRogue]: Nice! :D

2006-08-23 [Cia_mar]: Soon to be done!!!!

2006-08-23 [Urmando The Elfling]: Tapping fingers on my desk......

2006-08-24 [Elisha Kelly]: :} doesn't fit the theme as much as [iippo]'s (whose picture rocks my socks :P) but I likes it :D

2006-08-24 [Yuriona]: Soooo... the Red Team is done first hmmm? Does this mean I need to close the betting then??

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: I think it's a very sweet take on the theme, Ely, and a really cute picture! Especially the lil' guy in the foreground.

Cia, how could ya let the team down? *guilt trip* lol jk jk But I am awfully eager to see what ya got, miss. Post already!!!

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: I don't think betting needs to be closed just because the Reds are all in. =/ The deadline isn't until tomorrow, so we'll wait until Cia gets hers in and then you can shut the Den down for this round.

2006-08-24 [Elisha Kelly]: oooh we have until tommorow??? hmmmmmmmm

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: Yep. Deadline is above (August 24th) - top of the page there.

2006-08-24 [Elisha Kelly]: well thats today for me XD

2006-08-24 [Elisha Kelly]: I updated... just had to fix something that was bugging me :P

2006-08-24 [iippo]: Whoa Ely, I love that picture! So light - theme wise and technique - just like floating under water! They're so precious! :3

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: sorry to have taken so long... life intruded yesterday with some major moving or furniture as well as homeschooling the kids!... this is the first time we hace ever homeschooled and monday was our first day!....i have to just put my entry together, it is scanned in two pieces cuz it is too big and so i will post it soon this morning!

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: Cool, we're all looking forward to it, Cia! =)

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: *sigh* there it is!.... for the record!!!! I HATE STIPPLING!!!!!!.... *looks around sheepishly but feels so much better getting that off her chest*

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: Stippling!!! Now I see what REALLY took so long! Great job, Cia - I admire your patience - for this and homeschooling at the same time hehheh

2006-08-24 [moira hawthorne]: ditto! =D

2006-08-24 [Yncke]: Yay! The heroes of every penciller. (Again a magnificent round. I pity the judges.)

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: heroes, though unlikely they may be!!!!...thanks everyone for the pat on the back!!! lol

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: Funny that the penciller's hero should be portrayed in the Inks round hehehe

2006-08-24 [Yuriona]: Now I can close the betting? *grins*

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: sorry blue team for those of you who may have betted on blue finishing all entries first!!!... _{*kicks self for arrogantly doing just that*}

2006-08-24 [Yuriona]: *snickers*

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: Yes you can close the betting window, Mistress!

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: _{"Funny that the penciller's hero should be portrayed in the Inks round..."}
true but it was during this round that i missed him the most...Long Live PENCILMAN and His Faithful Sidekick, ERASERBOY!!!!

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: glad i am not a judge... this is another hard round!

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: Ugh, I missed pencils, too. lol

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: lol

2006-08-24 [Elisha Kelly]: thanks [iippo]. I really love how everyones style is so different and unique. Not one picture is the same... i think thats a very beautiful thing...

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: it is so cool... i agree... love to stare at the page for hours...

2006-08-24 [TheRogue]: WOOT! GREAT ENTRIES!

2006-08-24 [TheRogue]: good lord! no wonder it took so long Cia... you stippled the whole darn thing!!! *applaud*

2006-08-24 [TheRogue]: sorry sorry.. just being anal! :(

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: thanks...*blushes*
hey i thought youwere't gonna change anything anymore Rogue?

2006-08-24 [TheRogue]: oh no! I was just getting all the entries next to each other in a nice orderly fashion so you can compare better. :)

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: ah... but something got messed up.. now they are all wrong...*frowns*

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: ah... now it is fixed again!

2006-08-24 [TheRogue]: yeah.. my 'pseudo html' is a little rusty.. ^_^

2006-08-24 [Elisha Kelly]: now I have to wait for them all to show again *shakes fist* damn you dial up!

2006-08-24 [TheRogue]: :*(

2006-08-24 [Elisha Kelly]: :P it's okay they are back now XD they loaded quicker cause they is so little :P

2006-08-24 [Evilmonk]: Wow Cia. Points for the dedication. I don't have the patience for stippling myself but I admire the folks who do. Great job!

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: thanks... i went with a more whimsical view of the topic, i think i needed to considering my choice of mode of medium...lol

2006-08-24 [Evilmonk]: ...I have no idea what you just said....

2006-08-24 [Elisha Kelly]: XD I do... must be a girl thing...

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: lol.... *speaks slowly* i... wanted ...it ...to.. be ...light hearted... since.... i ....chose .....stippling...(the ...mode) ...with... ink...(the... medium)
*wink*

2006-08-24 [Evilmonk]: Imagine that...chicks making things more complicated than they need to be...hmm. =DLOL

2006-08-24 [Elisha Kelly]: well thats what women do best, make things complicated XD It's all apart of our devious plan to confound the male population into submission

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: Go Women!!!!!!... oops i mean .. GO BLUE!!!!

2006-08-24 [Evilmonk]: *hangs head* ...yes ma'am....

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: Awww *pats Evil's head* Give him a break ladies, he's such a good boy =9

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: well... i suppose i can be nice...we are on the same team!... lol... Go Blue team! To the best Inker to go to the next round!!!! *cheers*

2006-08-24 [Yuriona]: Hey now, you know I love 'em! *hugs Evil*

2006-08-24 [Evilmonk]: 2 of the 5 judges are in and so far it looks like this:
Channy- 0 votes
Urmando- 2 votes
Elysiann- 0 votes
iippo- 2 votes
Perplexity- 0 votes
TheRogue- 2 votes
Cia_Mar- 0 votes
Evilmonk- 2 votes

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: wow... very one sided here!

2006-08-24 [Evilmonk]: Well, in the last round I remember Urmando being down to Erinbabe 2-nil and he came back and got the last 3 in a sweep. It can happen folks...there is a precedence! =)

2006-08-24 [TheRogue]: *bites nails* man those judges better hurry up.. i'm running out of nails to bite.. i gotta bite other people's nails soon..

2006-08-24 [moira hawthorne]: *sits on my hands* away with you!

2006-08-24 [Lothuriel]: I am truly addicted to this wiki...

2006-08-24 [Rennie]: *hides nails from Rogue* oh no you don't...

2006-08-24 [TheRogue]: *grabs and gnaws*

2006-08-24 [Evilmonk]: 3 of the 5 judges are in and so far it looks like this:
Channy- 1 vote
Urmando- 2 votes
Elysiann- 1 vote
iippo- 2 votes
Perplexity- 0 votes
TheRogue- 3 votes
Cia_Mar- 0 votes
Evilmonk- 3 votes

So, TheRogue and Evilmonk advance to Round 3. Channy and Elyssian remain in the running, but Urmando and Iippo only need one more vote to clinch it.

2006-08-24 [TheRogue]: Well done everyone...This was a very hard round.. Good Job! *hugs and High Fives*

2006-08-24 [moira hawthorne]: Congrats to TheRogue and Evilmonk
good... and now TheRogue will stop attacking/chewing other people's nails!

*patpat* to Perplexity and Cia_Mar... good show!

2006-08-24 [Urmando The Elfling]: Oh My......*looks with small eye's*....

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: *sniffle* *shakey bottom lip* *big teary eyes*

But hey, if I was gonna lose a round to someone, I'm glad it was TheRogue! =9 *highfive* Awesome round, everyone! Who's gonna go head to head on Red??? =D 

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: *sniff sniff... puts on a brave face and goes to shake evil monks hand* ...The round is yours...*bows gracefully...turns walks away and breaks her ink pen, muttering "stupid pen"* ...*wink*

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: *commiserates with Cia* We'll get 'em next Tournament, girl!

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: yeah, now we need to have real team effort...one person is voted to do the pencil work...another takes that same pic to do the ink work and then another is voted for the coloring...the final piece is voted as a whole and then we will all win!!! lol

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: Hey there's a neat idea, too!

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: have you noticed that slowly they have been eliminating the women from this comp???.. is this a biased comp?????

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: Don't be paranoid! *shifty eyed*
lol
Naw, I think the judges are way too fair for that kinda silliness.

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: maybe we could have a call back compitition for the red and blue teams...that way it will be all about red against blue!

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: call back? what you mean?

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: hmmm... it would be fun? non?

2006-08-24 [smakeupfx]: That or everyone could just gang up on [Evilmonk] .... cause, that's fun ;-)

2006-08-24 [Yuriona]: I'm in on that!

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: Awwww nooooo *hugs Evil* dun be a meanie, you... you meanie! *sticks tongue out at smakeupfx*

2006-08-24 [smakeupfx]: Ohhhh, you know I mean it with love.... now get um!  ;-P

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: Pillow fight! *battons down the sofa fort*

2006-08-24 [TheRogue]: Ugh... is this the one where we pencil ink and color? ^.0;;

2006-08-24 [Yuriona]: *pulls out her marshmallow gun* FREE FOR ALL!!

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: AYUP! Round 3 *slaps Rogue's back* Get ready, sensei!

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: *fills cauldrons with hot chocolate*

2006-08-24 [Yuriona]: *is card carrying member of the MBS*

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: um.. say after all this is over...we call back each of the round winning contestants and offer them to do a comp like i sugested where the best of the best were voted in their groups to do each part of the same drawing.. pencil, ink, color...an example would be lets say...the subject is Razed Cityand i draw a pic for the pencil part... the next person on blue team (evil monk)would be chosen to ink it and then the best of the color round will color it! the same would be done by the red team... the subject to be drawn would be chosen randomly, but would be the same for both red and blue teams...

2006-08-24 [Cia_mar]: sorry this seems out of context... had to take time to type... lol

2006-08-24 [Yuriona]: That's ok... I can still pelt you with marshmallows. }:)

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: I'd just be eager to get Tournament 2 started, so if other people wanted to participate they could sign up, get some new category suggestions in there - new challenges!

2006-08-24 [Evilmonk]: I dunno about all that. Its a good idea an all and the numbers seem to work out for it but I think we are trying to keep everything on a monthly schedule here. The artists have a busy life outside of this one (cept for smakeupfx- get to work you!)lol- and they are drawing like the wind. Now we want everyone to stay on their drawing an all but we don't want to drench them with subject matter or contests either. If someone wanted to do something art wise with the contestants who did not advance, then I have no problem with that at all, but, I will only speak for me here, have tons of work to just CATCH UP on. Win lose or draw (get it...draw?) I'm out of the next tourney. I can make a space for someone who wants it and use the time off to catch up on the things I am behind on. I like your ideas, but with so much going on I am going to say that you can submit a proposal to me and I will give it a look. If approved you would be responsible for setting it all up and maintaining it. I have no quarrel with folks that want to draw lots and will give them a space to do that if they choose. But as for me I am a little burnt. I don't want to change the format and I do want to keep the contest we have got, moving along at a brisk pace.

2006-08-24 [Evilmonk]: TheRogue and Evilmonk. Now this ought to be something. I won't deny how badly I wanted this to happen. Don't get me wrong I wanted Tina to pull it off, but I wanted the opportunity to best TheRogue, as well. Tina had her shot and for what its worth, did a stellar pic. I have to be honest, I think by her not throwing in a background, cost her.
My turn! >D

2006-08-24 [smakeupfx]: *lounge lounge lounge*  ;-)   I think rogue and evil should mud wrestle as well  ;-D

2006-08-24 [Evilmonk]: That would not be pretty...

2006-08-24 [Perplexity]: Would Jell-O be prettier? I like black cherry myself. =9

2006-08-24 [smakeupfx]: Ahh, there ya go... would that count as an underwater battle?  ;-P

2006-08-24 [Yuriona]: I dunno... it would certainly be entertaining. :P

2006-08-24 [Mom]: It's quite amuzing to be getting old. I just misread one of the above lines...[20:42:59 smakeupfx: That or everyone could just gang up on Evilmonk .... cause, that's fun ;-)]I thought it said...[everyone could just gang bang Evilmonk .... cause, that's fun ;-)] Losing brain cells can be quite fun at times.

2006-08-24 [Evilmonk]: HEYHEYHEY!!!! There will be NONE of that!!!....no jell-o wrestling either. Jell-O is for comsumption purposes only!

2006-08-24 [smakeupfx]: Then I did collage all wrong  hehehe

2006-08-24 [Elisha Kelly]: yay! I got a vote :P I'm cool whichever way it goes... I mean who could feel bad about losing out to [iippo] that picture is beyond awesome :D

2006-08-25 [Evilmonk]: The 4th judge has voted and Urmando and iippo move on to the next round. Congrats. We have the Final Four. We will post all the votes once the last judge checks in. Once again the judging was under protest that there were no tie-breakers allowed. I don't imagine that situation will change as the tournament goes on. Needless to say but again, wonderful job to ALL our contestants! *applauds*

2006-08-25 [Elisha Kelly]: congrats iippo and urmando :D

2006-08-25 [moira hawthorne]: Wais Hail! iippo and urmando!

2006-08-25 [Urmando The Elfling]: WOOHOO....!!!!!!!!!!!!Thank you, thank you...

2006-08-25 [Cia_mar]: Congrats all... though i will keep track.. i need to be absent mostly .. my schedule just got even more hectic... my pth grader's school has started as well and teaching that is not gonna be easy! lol... Congrats and Good luck! so Glad to have been a part of this! i will still be visiting from time to time....laters

2006-08-25 [Evilmonk]: Alright, all the votes came in and it stands like this:
Channy- 2 votes
Urmando- 3 votes
Iippo- 4 votes
Elysiann- 1 vote
Perplexity- 2 votes
TheRogue- 3 votes
Cia_Mar- 0 votes
Evilmonk- 5 votes

2006-08-25 [TheRogue]: wow.. close one plex. ^.^;

2006-08-25 [Perplexity]: Whee, they did like me =} I think I am going to keep working on this picture even though the round is over. Gonna fix all those things that might have made the difference - the point is to learn here right? =9
Good job everyone! I'll be bettin' heavy in Round 3 ;)

2006-08-25 [Yuriona]: Yeah! Go PLEX! XD I loved your dragon! Mean old Rogue killed his... *sniffs* You would not believe the time I had explaining the whole 'leggo my eggo' thing to [Paul Doyle] though Rogue. *dies*

2006-08-25 [TheRogue]: ROFL!

2006-08-25 [Evilmonk]: A lot more unexpected voting again this round. But all the judges explained how they voted (not that they are required to) and they once again did not have too easy a time with it. I have to admit that I knew that Rogue vs Perplexity was going to come down to one vote. Other than that I had no idea how the rest of the rounds voting would turn out.

2006-08-25 [Elisha Kelly]: I actually new [iippo] had it... :} It's such a great drawing... and has nice depth to it... and it is more to the theme...

2006-08-25 [Evilmonk]: My only thing with iippos piece was it just didn't scream battle at me, but I have to admit Ely I didn't get a battle feel from yours either. It kinda looked more like a friendly game of underwater tag. I think because the pieces had not so much of a battle feel the judges went to technique. Now thats just my opinion from what I saw in the works, which were both OUTSTANDING, but none of the judges actually told me that. Just trying to figure it in my head.

2006-08-25 [Elisha Kelly]: :P I find that me and battles don't mix... I am a lover not a fighter :D I tried a more traditional battle, but it wasn't working, so I scraped it and went with what worked for me :P

2006-08-25 [Evilmonk]: Hey, different strokes for different folks. The effort was amazing. If it were me I would have been very daunted looking at that and knowing I had to try and best it. But you stepped up and did it and are taking it all in stride. Its a great piece and I know you are proud of it.

2006-08-25 [Elisha Kelly]: hell yes! XD my daughter is colouring it for me... she nagged me for two days to finish it just so she could colour it... I still have a few issues with it... so it's still a work in progress...

2006-08-25 [Yuriona]: I would love to colour Plexie's dragon pic but I have no laptop until next week some time. ;_; Ah well, [Acerbus] has managed to sell my old one already so I'll be getting a brand new machine that is more geared to the graphics work I do! SQUEEE! XD

2006-08-25 [TheRogue]: *coughcough* MACINTOSH *coughcough*POWERBOOK G5*coughcough*

2006-08-25 [Yuriona]: Macs are evil. I wouldn't touch one with a 50 foot pole. That and my IT manager husband would consider that a divorceable offense. LMAO! Besides, with my technical background I'm a huge Hewelett Packard fan! *gets out the blue and white pom poms* :P

2006-08-25 [iippo]: Ah, thank you!
Ely, I was so sure you'd get it because yours seemed more "outside the box" -thinking to me, something that I hadn't even thought of.
And macs must die.

2006-08-25 [Yuriona]: I second that sentiment about the macs iippo! *tosses the pom poms and breaks out the sledge hammers* LOL!

2006-08-25 [smakeupfx]: G5 tower baby.... jeeezzz these new macs are fast... I timed a rescale of a 300meg photoshop file.... bing!

2006-08-25 [smakeupfx]: the new iPencil is great, it's more expensive than a standard pencil, but it's clear blue....and only draws half as many kinds of pictures but it draws them fast! has the new iEraser too, built right in!

2006-08-25 [Perplexity]: EVE Tournament 1 - Round 3 categories are up!!! Round starts tomorrow!!!!
