Hang Out and Post

[Spritzie]

I know what you mean. Or talking in all caps. (I'm glad no one here does that.) I like every nice and neat. And small.

[livvy]

Kind of a throwback to last night, but I just realized that Comic Sans is about the only font in which talking in all caps makes you look LESS serious. :P

[Noog]

Normal Member: What about Comic Sans?

 

Awesome Person: YEAH! I KNOW!!!

[Unstream]

LESS SERIOUS? WHAT?

 

I need to post this before I know what it'll look like.

 

Edit: It just looks weird :P

[Spritzie]

I've always liked Comic Sans. Vista used to have this font I really loved, I forget what it was called though.

[Noog]

Walt Disney Script is cool. I just don't actually have a place to use it yet. XD

[Spritzie]

I used to have a bunch of cool fonts. But I never had a use for them, as I don't make graphics that require them.

[Noog]

Next time the AC rolls around I'm going to attempt to make some graphics :P Hopefully they won't be too bad.

[Spritzie]

I've never gotten into it. My best friend is amazing with it though. She made the avatar I'm using now, from a picture of my sister's cat. She's made a bunch for me. From pictures I took at concerts, stuff I found. She made me a bunch of M&M ones.

 

I wish I had that kind of talent.

[Noog]

Well, not to offend that person, but that avatar you have isn't TOO hard to make. All it takes is a decent graphics program, knowledge of how the tools within it work, and some free time :)

[Spritzie]

Well, it's not about the difficulty of it, but the quality. I like her coloring and texturing. I rarely see ones that are the look I like.

[Noog]

Yeah, I like the...err...roughness(?)...of the text.

 

In my opinion, inserting text can be one of the hardest parts, because it's easy to just insert text, but the right texture/blend always looks amazing.

[Spritzie]

I've never tried, but I always assumed it could be quite difficult, seeing lots over the years, that looked very... just tossed together. I also when the graphic totally matches. The font, coloring, texturing, all matches the contents of the picture.

[Wembly]

This was a bad time to read this on my phone because none of the graphics or different texts show up so evrything looks the same...

[:)Doc]

So... what's the topic? I got confuzzlled in there, somewhere. :P

[Spritzie]

I'm not sure we totally have a topic. It went from grammar, to font size, to fonts, to graphics....

[:)Doc]

Well then, no topic is... a first since I've started posting at least :P

[Spritzie]

It's been kinda quiet the last hour or so. Pretty much, as soon as I got caught up, everything went quiet.

[IrishLiz]

I was gone for a bit, but I'm caught up now.

 

And I agree with the huge fonts/all caps thing. I associate it with being loud/yelling too, especially the all caps. It tends to drive me nuts.

 

It's Gonzo week here! (Luis Gonzalez - former D-Backs player). Gotta love him. Speaking of the same D-Backs era, has everyone seen this Geico commerical? It makes me laugh out loud. I love it.

lol, a few years ago Randy Johnson was one of my favorite players, and I admit that I would not challenge him in a snowball fight. X.X

[livvy]

Ha, I love those Geico commercials. I like the gecko more, but these are funny too. Have you seen the one with the retired drill sergeant?

[Spritzie]

I like the Geico commercial where the older ladies are all golfing. I thought that one was cute.

[IrishLiz]

I like the Charlie Daniels one too, but then again I'm biased towards anything with violin or fiddle.

[Spritzie]

I think one of my all-time favorite commercials is the one for the Premium M&Ms with the Green M&M girl.

[livvy]

Haha, yes, that's a good one! The pretzel M&M commercial is pretty good too.
