Resources Thread!

I don't know if this is allowed here. Or should this thread be to the Shameless Promo section because it will basically be a bunch of links directing to a bunch of different sites?

Anyways, so I kind of noticed that there are those people who request graphics, then there are those who make them, and then there are those who want to make them. Kind of like they're so inspired by David Cook that they suddenly decided to give that photoshop/paint shop/gimp/etc. etc. program a try! =D

And so, this thread will be a resource thread for those who want to make a great DC graphic!

Textures, brushes, and possibly tutorials, and what else (I don't know about DC galleries, because I think that would be transpiring to the Shameless Promo section.. O_o) will be put in a convenient list here.

I'm not sure if there's already a thread like this yet, if there is, can the mods kindly delete this please?

If there's not. Well, then... err, yay?!

Anybody can contribute, by the way. =D

I will update this with whatever you will put up here.

* this is still a bit of a work-in-progress. I have soo much bookmarked in my firefox, so it might take a while for my resources to be put up.

NOTE! all the tutorials I have listed here are probably only compatible with Adobe Photoshop. Since I'm not a Paint Shop Pro or a GIMP user (although, I'm pretty sure there are ways to work around those programs as if they could be PS. O_o; I'm not sure though!), so resources for that I'm maxed out on. x_x

But if you know any resource places for those, then please post! =D

Paramore

http://www.myspace.com/paramore

So basically they're a band from Franklin, Tennessee. They're pretty awesome: catchy tunes, infectious melodies, and powerful vocals from Hayley, their lead singer. They recently got nominated for a Grammy for best new artist. Hehe.

I like--well, love maybe, it's possible! XD lol!--them. =D

Does anybody share the love too? =D

HQ version of this pic?

I can't seem to find it anywhere. x_x
Or maybe, I just don't really know where to look... x_x

But I'm planning on making an icon on this pic...

"March of the Emos"

March of the Emos



WHAT THE HELL!?

I'm sorry, this just gets me riled up.

MCR is a band that's way down on my 'Bands-I-Like/Love' list, but they seriously don't deserve this.

Argh, what are the others thoughts about this?

It's just so... stupid.

It gets me so riled up that words actually escape me. (And that doesn't happen often with a talkative rambler girl like me. )

innocent question...

Hey, I haven't been to an AI Live tour concert (and I probably won't ever get to be, since I live all the way from another continent) but anyway. This question would apply to those who have been to one.

What are they like? I mean, how did they go on about it?

I'm just curious, that's all. XD

Do they like, cram all the songs they have performed in the show into two hours or something? o_O
Or do they get to perform whatever the hell they want? XD

Yeah, just feed the curious monkey. x_x
