[abandonedhouse7 7]
This is the balance of Mortal Life. The mermaid holds the side of light and good, and the dragon holds the side of evil and sorrow. ((Yes, I know not ALL dragons are evil, but I'm stereotyping, okay??)) This drawing reflects the current events of the world, i.e. Iraq War, Indian Ocean Tsunami, Beslan Terrorist bomb. The Ying/Yang symbol is swaying towards the dark slightly.

2005-02-09 [ArchangelGabriel]: No, don't it was easy. All you have to do is right click on the picture and choose properties. I'm sure you'll get better with pseudo HTML as you go on.

2005-02-09 [abandonedhouse7 7]: I don't think so. I'm too stupid. :S

2005-02-09 [ArchangelGabriel]: Sure. I'll teach you if you like. Over the holidays i'm finnishing of Guide to wikis Maybe you should watch it....

2005-02-09 [abandonedhouse7 7]: I'm sure I'll will. :D *mutters* computer whizz :p

2005-02-09 [ArchangelGabriel]: REally once you get good it will be second nature

2005-02-09 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Okay. I'll believe you for now. :P

2005-02-09 [Apus]: LOL@naff...you must be from Britain! =P

2005-02-09 [ArchangelGabriel]: Good old 'Porrige', you know they never show that any more.

2005-02-09 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Sure am, although I'm Canadian at heart :D

2005-02-09 [abandonedhouse7 7]: They had it on the telly for a while. You dont see Monty Python either. :( But i have the movies on DVD so :D

2005-02-09 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Or Blackadder. But that's on DVD too. *sings* Blackad-der!

2005-02-09 [ArchangelGabriel]: Or Red dwarf! 'it's cold out side there's no kind ofatmophere...' http://geocities.com/televisioncity/lot/6469/reddwarf.mp3

2005-02-09 [abandonedhouse7 7]: lol

2005-02-09 [ArchangelGabriel]: ahh... i do miss reddwarf. Lyster, holly, kryton, the cat the block who's a hologram who i can't rember th ename of. Rimmer or somthing like that

2005-02-09 [abandonedhouse7 7]: I havnt seen red dwarf. I'm feeling slightly deprived now. *shrugs* but blackadder and Monty Python are cool. :D

2005-02-09 [ArchangelGabriel]: hmmm... have you ever seen robot wars? or scrap heap challenge. The bloke from RW is lystor and the bloke from SHC is Cryton

2005-02-09 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Yeh I've seen those. Sorry about the long-winded explanation of my pic, it's what I feel from it. You can think what you like, remember!

2005-02-09 [ArchangelGabriel]: It's fine. but could you put them both at the top of the pic

2005-02-09 [abandonedhouse7 7]: okay, done!

2005-02-09 [ArchangelGabriel]: cool, thanks.

2005-02-09 [ArchangelGabriel]: Althoghu the comp ends officaly at the end of march i'd like the last entries in around the twentieth. Just a dead line that people who miss deadlines can aim at

2005-02-09 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Do we have to have two pics?

2005-02-09 [ArchangelGabriel]: no. that's just the limit. Rember the contest will end on the 31st of march whether your entry is in or not

2005-02-09 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Okay! I'm ready. Wow, I've never met a deadline berfore. :D

2005-02-09 [ArchangelGabriel]: Althoghu on that note i must finnish my piece. You wouldn't belive how hard it can be to draw a person from the side

2005-02-10 [abandonedhouse7 7]: lol, I just can't draw people. Full stop. That's why it's a mermaid and not a person. (It was supposed to be an elf, but I can't draw them so.. *shrugs* You got a mermaid instead.

2005-02-10 [ArchangelGabriel]: Hey, what ever rocks your boat. Witches hats are difficult too.

2005-02-10 [Phlea]: i think its cool

2005-02-10 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Really? Thanks! :D

2005-02-10 [spiderweb]: lobsang please put my pic up

2005-02-11 [Yoruno]: I've added my entry... ^_^ Hope you don't mind, I've added the whole code too...

2005-02-11 [ArchangelGabriel]: that's good. i'm really pleased with the range of people who are entering

2005-02-11 [Dragonite]: mine is really bad I did it really quickly

2005-02-11 [Yoruno]: Uhm... I think it fits the theme quite well... and it's cute ^^

2005-02-12 [Apus]: What the hell? [The Hidden Happiness] just stole my idea!

2005-02-12 [ArchangelGabriel]: hmmm.... I must say you have both got exactly the same pose..... But you've both got diffrent uses. [#1st lady#] can keep her entry but on the condition she does try to find a repalcement.

2005-02-12 [Phlea]: 1st ladies isn't quite so beast like

2005-02-12 [ArchangelGabriel]: Where did they b get the pose is the question. Did Apus and 1st lady get it form the same source or did 1st lady get it from apus?

2005-02-12 [Phlea]: good question ask one of them

2005-02-12 [ArchangelGabriel]: that i will

2005-02-12 [Apus]: Mine was an art request from [basuru] based on a photograph of him and his girlfriend!

2005-02-12 [Apus]: Seems that [The Hidden Happiness] is friends with [basuru] so it's likely we both had the same assignment!

2005-02-12 [ArchangelGabriel]: could be, could be. I'll ask when she's next on

2005-02-12 [Penguinlord]: does it matter? the contest is surely about the quality of art, not teh subject... thats why you were told what subject.

2005-02-12 [ArchangelGabriel]: true. though. people may get hostile if they think some ones been stealing ideas

2005-02-12 [ArchangelGabriel]: Right. problem solved. They both worked from the same picture. Not one anothers

2005-02-14 [Phlea]: problem solved [The Hidden Happiness] didn't copy

2005-02-14 [ArchangelGabriel]: i know. They both used the same text

2005-02-14 [Phlea]: hmmm what you just said may be kinda copying but that has nothing to do with this so lets not go into that

2005-02-21 [justlikelastime]: pretty pictures

2005-02-22 [Penguinlord]: (to [LunaSoleil]) You can just put your pic in with a resizer like this: <img300: image url >

2005-02-22 [LunaSoleil]: I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you [Penguinlord]!

2005-02-22 [Apus]: I've got a red x at this end!

2005-02-22 [Apus]: You're running it from your harddrive, you need to upload it onto a server!

2005-02-23 [abandonedhouse7 7]: I've got a red x too.

2005-02-23 [Phlea]: red x three. why has my pic suddenly become so small

2005-02-23 [Yavanna]: [ArchangelGabriel] In disguise: Sorry about your entry phlea. Due to a rchange in the way pesudo HTML is tructured i have to change the style i use. And yes. you need to upload the picture phantomess

2005-02-23 [Phlea]: yeah so how does that make my pic small

2005-02-23 [Yoruno]: ^_^ You missed a ":" in the code... that's all [Phlea]

2005-02-23 [Phlea]: what on my pic

2005-02-23 [abandonedhouse7 7]: I have lotsa red xs!! Everyone has a red x, but the piccys are there as well... WTF?

2005-02-24 [Penguinlord]: tis probably a problem with your browser/connection. i can see it all fine (except for phantomess' who hasn't actually uploaded it...)

2005-02-24 [ArchangelGabriel]: I know. Shes tried five times and still get get her head rounf the idea. I'll go and explain

2005-02-25 [Phlea]: my pics small again

2005-02-25 [Penguinlord]: i fixa it for you ya

2005-02-25 [LunaSoleil]: huh?

2005-02-25 [Yoruno]: Phantomess, you must upload the image to the web first. Why don't you try uploading it to Elftown directly? Use the "Upload new drawing" box in your house...

2005-02-26 [Phlea]: my picture big again

2005-02-26 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Hey everyone, take a look at the photo in my house and take a guess of which one is me! :D (I am there, don't worry)

2005-02-26 [Penguinlord]: phlea, do you want it big or not??

2005-02-26 [abandonedhouse7 7]: She's happy that its big.

2005-02-26 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Oh, btw, everyone look at the photo in my house and take my poll. Guess which one is me!!

2005-02-27 [Estantia]: um... just one thing, isn't the entry by apus(2.) and the entry by 1st lady(18.) a tiny bit similar? ie. near identical?

2005-02-27 [Apus]: yes we've been through this...we both received the same art request from [basuru]. Nobody ripped off ideas.

2005-03-01 [LunaSoleil]: ohhhhhhhhhhhh............ok

2005-03-01 [LunaSoleil]: IT'S NOT WORKING! YIKES!!!!!!!!!

2005-03-02 [Penguinlord]: try how do i upload art

2005-03-03 [LunaSoleil]: oh......thanks!

2005-03-03 [Phlea]: i want my pic big

2005-03-03 [ArchangelGabriel]: every one is treated the same

2005-03-08 [Zem]: I've drawn mine... ow it's just a case of gtting it to the scanner...

2005-03-11 [Phlea]: lobsang what was the equally thing about

2005-03-11 [ArchangelGabriel]: Ehhh?

2005-03-11 [Penguinlord]: you just said "every one is treated the same" out of nowhere...

2005-03-15 [Aradon Templar]: I have an entry. Here's the linkage: <IMG:http://img180.exs.cx/img180/9567/alphaomegacontest37kb.jpg> No description, really... Just, one extreme and the other, applied to land.

2005-03-16 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Why don't you put it on then?

2005-03-16 [ArchangelGabriel]: Can some one do it? I can't, my computer doesn't want to edit pages

2005-03-16 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Okay, I'll try! ^_^

2005-03-16 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Oh! I did it i did it! Woot! *does a little dance* Yaaaay!

2005-03-16 [Aradon Templar]: Eh, I woulda, but I thought Lobsang said somewhere that he wanted to himself.

2005-03-16 [ArchangelGabriel]: Nope. i just said i'd do the formatting

2005-03-16 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Its very good. ^_^

2005-03-16 [ArchangelGabriel]: Yeah, we might want to make a it a little smaller though. 250 maybe...

2005-03-16 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Why? It's fine. Isn't it?

2005-03-16 [ArchangelGabriel]: yeah, just a little big. You can reduce the size a little by putting <img250:*URL*>

2005-03-16 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Oh, okay.

2005-03-16 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Is that better?

2005-03-16 [ArchangelGabriel]: Perfect. Thanks!

2005-03-16 [abandonedhouse7 7]: *looks pleased with hersefl*

2005-03-16 [Apus]: Ooooooooooo, I like the Bryce work...at least it looks like Bryce!

2005-03-16 [ArchangelGabriel]: Bryce work?

2005-03-16 [Apus]: The program used for [Aradon Templar]'s entry!

2005-03-16 [Aradon Templar]: Nope. Its made via Terragen , a terrain-generating program. Quite powerful, although Terragen2 is going to be incredible (release mid-2005). http://www.planetside.co.uk/ Link for the Terragen download.

2005-03-16 [Apus]: Close enough, Bryce is also a terrain generator! ;)

2005-03-16 [Aradon Templar]: Eh, never used it. Actually, I might have, but if I did, I didn't like it :P Far different from Terragen. Apart from being just practical, the Terragen interface is somewhat comical the first few times you use it, but very convenient to get what you want as well.

2005-03-16 [abandonedhouse7 7]: *looks at [Aradon Templar] and [Apus] in confusion* What the hell? Confuddled!! :S

2005-03-16 [Aradon Templar]: They're both landscape art programs :P

2005-03-16 [abandonedhouse7 7]: I would have no idea, I cant even use Photoshop properly.

2005-03-16 [Penguinlord]: Bryce is less good for sort of free-hand stuff i found... never used terragen, heard of it though.

2005-03-17 [Apus]: Yeah Bryce isnt the best, but cos it's the only program I used I immediately think its Bryce...but actually I can tell its not Bryce cos its more realistic looking, but for lack of another program to call it at the time I called it Bryce....confuzzled yet? I am, lol!

2005-03-17 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Yes, most definitely. Confuddled.

2005-03-17 [ArchangelGabriel]: LOL, i'm still with it. Does any one here use draw plus?

2005-03-17 [abandonedhouse7 7]: *absolves herself in Maths GCSE past papers: something she can understand!!* ^_^

2005-03-18 [Penguinlord]: i found draw+ blocky.

2005-03-18 [abandonedhouse7 7]: *looks up from papers* Blocky? What the hell? Is that supposed to be a computer term?

2005-03-18 [ArchangelGabriel]: how? it's a vector program...

2005-03-18 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Good question, how? And vector program? *snorts at her obvious ignorance*

2005-03-18 [ArchangelGabriel]: A vector program works with coordiantes EG Make a line between 1,2 and 1,3 and make it pt3 thick. The alternative is Btiamp whcih makes lots of dots on a piece of paper. Vector images can be enlarged and shrunk with out loss of quality, where as a Bitmap (EG, .bmp, .jpg, .gif) do.

2005-03-18 [abandonedhouse7 7]: Oh... okay. So vector programs dont use pixels?

2005-03-18 [ArchangelGabriel]: Vector programms work by useing lots of coordinates and instructions. In some situations this can make it a smaller file.

2005-03-18 [Aradon Templar]: Terragen is definately not vector based. It is in fact very blocky. After it finishes making the picture, it tells you how long it took, and how many quadrilaterals it used :P

2005-03-18 [Penguinlord]: but the texture mapping onto vector planes is crucial for a good mapper. and draw+ is not that good at that imo

2005-03-18 [ArchangelGabriel]: i know, that is a problem

2005-03-18 [Apus]: Still got a lot of reserved spots...have they forgotten about the contest or what?

2005-03-18 [abandonedhouse7 7]: I didnt!! *looks proud at actually been able to remember something for once in her sorry life*

2005-03-18 [ArchangelGabriel]: I don't know, i'll ask them tomorrow

2005-03-19 [Penguinlord]: yeah lobbo this is your contest!

2005-03-21 [Apus]: Wow, [selardorart]'s entry is great! =)

2005-03-21 [abandonedhouse7 7]: I think I saw it in the Goddess competition or something like that. Ummm, can;t remember. But it fits in really well and its great! ^_^

2005-03-23 [Phlea]: oh wow that is sooooo good!

2005-03-23 [Purple Artichoke]: wow [selardorart] entry is good. so much better than mine ><

2005-03-23 [Purple Artichoke]: I like [Yoruno]'s too

2005-03-23 [Phlea]: wow yours is really good aswell and [Yoruno]'s

2005-03-23 [Phlea]: ís my entry so terrible it won't be put up (by the way i'm splat)
