Hey guys, I'm releasing an EP in a few weeks, and I need a new logo for the CD sleeve that it'll be released in. It's nothing too crazy. I'm submitting this in a bunch of different places.





Looking for something like that, except I need it to be an M instead of a T, and I need the layers to be done in red/yellow/green.

$200 in cash (however you want it. visa card, paypal, steam wallet, whatever)

Off Topic / Woman's Day.

« on: March 08, 2013, 03:25:03 PM »

Hey guys, not sure if any of you care or not, but today is international woman's day. Make sure to tell the important women in your life that you love them. Get your mom some flowers. Send your grandma an email, tell all your girl-friends you appreciate them for being amazing people.

Or if you don't love them just ignore this thread and carry on. But that's pretty forgeted up.

Off Topic / Help me find a new GPU.

« on: February 08, 2013, 03:06:37 PM »

Hey guys, so I have this gaming computer that I use for.. well.. gaming. And I'm looking to upgrade the GPU. I built it in like 2010 or something like that, so the parts are kind of dated. Here's a pic of the DX-Diag. I'll eventually change out the CPU as well, but not really top priority at the moment.

Anyway, i don't really play too many insanely stressful games. I play CS:GO, CS:S, L4D 2, Blockland and that's really it. I'd like to be able to run some of the newer generation games, but I don't need anything crazy beefed up. My budget is probably around 250-ish. Cheers.



kthx. whoever recommends me a good one gets something. idk what yet, but i'll hook you up with a goodie of sorts.

Off Topic / New Years Eve - What's-cho plans?

« on: December 17, 2012, 06:01:42 PM »

Hey gutter-sluts and bubble-butts, it's that time of year again; New Years Eve. The night that people make promises they keep for 2 weeks, and have love with people that make them suffer from itchy richard syndrome for the rest of their lives. The best night of all.

Anyway, just wanted to see what you guys are doing. Me and a whole group of people are taking a limousine to the Porter Robinson concert in Chicago. We're gonna bring a few bottles of champagne and some cigars as well for the ride. Pretty excited. :3

What're you children doing?

Off Topic / Any of your artistically talented guys want to make a few bucks?

« on: December 04, 2012, 09:44:37 AM »

Hey guys, so I'm currently looking to get another tattoo done and I need a design. I generally go to the studio and ask for my artist to do it, but he just opened his own shop in London, and I'm not going to go there just for him. So let me cut straight to it. I'm looking to get an Alice in Wonderland tattoo. I want a Cheshire Cat and The Mad Hatter done, however, I want them to be all as 1 piece, meaning that they both flow together nicely.

Specifics;

I want it to be the new macabre styled Cheshire, as opposed to the old-school happy one.
Color is preferred, however I'd like to keep it at a minimum.
The classic 10/6 card must be incorporated in it.
A quote must be incorporated in it as well;
"We're all mad here"
or
"Only a few find the way, some don't recognize it when they do - some... don't ever want to."

Apart from that, I'm giving you guys full artistic freedom.


Payment details;

I'm willing to pay via Cash (PayPal), or if you'd like a Steam game, I'll wait off on payment until I get back to the US and the Christmas sales are going on. Depending on the final outcome, I'll probably pay anywhere from 20-30 USD for it.


Tl;Dr: I want you to make me a tattoo with the above guidelines and I'll pay you money or buy you a game.



Update 1:



I like this face. You should use this face.

Off Topic / Need some help with a DIY project.

« on: December 03, 2012, 08:18:58 AM »

Hey guys, so I was hopping around on the internet while on a plane, and I stumbled upon this. I think it's awesome and I totally want one, however I'm not going to spend $1,000 on a clock, so I want to make it myself. Not only would it be an awesome time killer but a fun learning project.

I have access to place that could cut the glass or plexiglass with a laserjet for the actual face of the clock, so I'm really more looking for help on how to make the actual circuitry and such. I'm assuming I can make it arduino controlled, but I have no idea.

Off Topic / I need your guys' opinions for a book I'm writing.

« on: November 16, 2012, 11:42:15 AM »

Hey guys, so I'm currently in the process of writing a book on my personal outlook and philosophy on life and why us humans were put here on earth, when it came to me that I shouldn't only consider my point of view on it while working on it. I'm already about 90 pages in to it so I'm not going to change much, but I'd still love to hear your guys' opinions.


The short version of mine;

I personally believe that humans were put on the Earth as a cancer. We were sent here to destroy it, and once we're done we'll go to another planet and do the same. If you look at the earth from space, you'll see these disgusting clouds of smog and waste in the air above metropolis. It's an infection. If a bomb were to hit downtown Chicago right now, it'd be rebuilt in a year and it'd look like nothing ever happened. If someone dies, 3 replace them.

Now, I personally have an incredibly negative outlook on humanity as a whole so that might be why I feel this way. But I would love to hear what you guys have to say about it.



one thing I should have been a bit more specific about; I'd love to hear your guys' opinions on why humans were put on earth, rather than my idea of why we're here. If that makes sense.

Off Topic / Help beachbum with college physics. Free stuff if you get it right

« on: November 12, 2012, 10:10:01 PM »

Hey guys, so a few weeks ago I signed up for a few courses at my old college just to not have a huge gap in my educational portfolio.

Well, one of the courses I'm taking is advanced physics. I've been doin this work for like 3 hours now and this last problem is loving my brain so hard.

A 300 gram bird is flying at 5.6 meters/second and sees an insect that weighs 10g flying straight towards it at a speed of 26m/s. the bird opens its mouth and has a snack.

What is the birds speed immediately after swallowing?  


Prize to whoever answers it right and shows me te equation they used so I can verify.

« on: November 07, 2012, 04:29:54 PM »

Hey guys, so in a few weeks I'm going on tour in Europe, and I want to get a few more pieces. I've already decided that I want Eschers triangle on my right hip. But I also want to get a banksy piece. I'm deciding between these 2.



oooorrr



However with this one, the heart that's above the girls head, i would get in red or some other shade of it.

so yeah, decide.

Off Topic / Timeflies; the best thing you've never heard of.

« on: October 17, 2012, 08:36:58 PM »

Hey guys, so, I know a lot of you aren't fans of the whole hip-hop/rap music following, and that's totally understandable, to each their own. But I have to share this artist with you guys. His name is Timeflies, and every Tuesday he does a freestyle.

Let me give you a bit of background on Timeflies Tuesdays. Every Tuesday he does a freestyle. He has the other guy in his videos (don't remember his name) write random stuff down on a bunch of pieces of paper, and he has to use the whole phrase at least once in the bar. So every bar he has a new theme that he has to freestyle around.

The theme of the video I'm showing you is Cartoons.

Enjoy;
