Welcome, JayKay!

Very glad to have you on the boards!

It's always nice to have artists around -- I look forward to seeing some of your art! I think there's a "show your art" thread going currently, I'd love to see some of your stuff in there!

Again, welcome!

Welcome Jay!

I noticed you are looking for linux distro so I have to recommend ubuntu.
That's the one I recommend for every one right now since it works so well for me, though I'm actually using kubuntu (same but with KDE, even better IMO).

Anyway I hope you enjoy your stay at CCN.

Hey, jay. You might want to try Ubuntu. If you don't like that and wanna go cold turkey try Slackware.
Or look at a list. I see you said in the Girls topic that you're installing Mandrake. That will be old soon and outdated as far as I know.

Hey Jay! Welcome to CCN! I have something to ask you. You're good with photoshop and HTML and stuff right? Well, do you think you could help me with my website? Mostly all I need right now is some better graphics, like buttons and baners and stuff. But yeah, that would be GREAT.

Image format

Well, look at the site. Basically i need new banners and buttons thet flow better with the background. They should be around the same siza and color, just better flowing. Also, if you want, you could make a beter background, but i dont really need that as much as the other stuff. And I did my site on frontpage

sup jaykay. this welcoming is obviously a day or two late, but hi!

yah, this site is great . u will find plenty of people asking for help on their games. i warn you tho....if some new guy with 1 post comes along and says he is making a game and needs artists...u might want to avoid that inevitable downfall. u probably knew that, but w/e.lol.

MastaLlama, kiwee(?), and I are making a game at the moment, and seeing as your art skills are "good" (basically phenomenal.), we may call upon you for a second art pos., if kiwee doesnt want to do alll of it.

@quest

When I click your banner it takes me to a nightmare. There are ads all over and I see a cool .tk button. But I will check it out when I get home.

@crazy

Sure I would be honored to help out. I saw kiwee's dog. I hope you are not wanting me to do 3d work as I am still learning max. If its just concept art/ 2d graphics I should be fine.

BOO YA! NO ADS!!! I finally figured out how to get id hosted for free with no ads... COX! I have tried like, six different hosts, then my friend told me his company's site is hosted by his IP, and that when you make an account with certain IPs (cox and verizon are all I know of right now) then they give you like 10mb of web space and like 7 email addresses to do whatever you want! it also has frontpage extentions, which helps A LOT. I can also still do FTP... so... I'm one VERY happy camper ^_^

edit: I know 10nb isn't a whole lot, but its plenty enough for my needs.

Quest. bro ditch that site and let me make you one from scratch. No offense but you need to know some basics.

* make sure text is readible ( dont use purple text on blue background )
* dont use graphics that are crap ( to lossy )
* try to keep background images simple.

but nice choice on the forums.

ill start writing a site for you as soon as i get my comp fixed.

Err... ok. But I did work pretty hard on it.... -_- *sigh*. How long do you think it would take? And would you really make a whole new site from scratch???

But yeah, I'm not very good with the web graphics. I had to get those from some freebutton.com thing and change them around some. But Thats why I asked you to do some graphics for me. I can change the text, I was going to anyway, and if the background is bad (I thought it was fine, but hey) then I can always change it.

"CivIII"

Cool . Got all the expansion packs?

"( currently looking for a decent linux distro )"

Heh, so am I. It seems that there always seems to be something annoying about most distros.

Right now, the biggest reasons for me not switching are that WINE is a pain to set up, and NTFS support is read-only.

And oh, yeah: games. XP has all the games.

Yes I will build you a whole site. It's like maybe 5 pages with like 10 graphics. Then all you do is fill in the jabber with your info. Also do you know html well? If so I will make the page straight out of photoshop.

Yes I meant download not .dll.

CivIII is awesome! No havent got all the expansions.

Sadly, I don't know any HTML whatsoever. I'm going to start learning it soon, but as of now I have zero knowledge of it.
