I go to bed and 8 hours later there are 3 pages of chaos.
I could tell from DragToms first posts he was trying to stir shit, but he's really done it this time. Like Don Killah, I'm a 30+ year old man and I don't need some gimp coming into the thread I started telling me my work is shit or DK for that matter. If it's so rubbish then piss off, it's simple really.
Now a little background about myself. I have run 2 companies in the past, one was a video game importer back in 2001, www.gamesimporter.com, where I would sell import games from Japan and the USA, and the second was a coffee house, where I managed marketing for live events and gigs in the basement bar.
Several years ago prior to both those, I did an Art & Design course at college but I later went into acting. I have always been more a visual based person and quite hands on.
I have a brother that for the last 15 years has worked with various video games companies as an animator and artist. He's now working at Rockstar North as a Level Designer, so even with him, whom I am closest to in my family, I have been around games and the visual side for many years.
So for me when I think I have an idea of what people want visually, I would say it's pretty accurate. I understand people also want to tinker and fiddle with settings and so that was the whole idea behind the Settings page. Having that clown DragTom come in here telling me it's shit what I've done, well you know what, whatever you halfwit, why not do as Don said and put your money where your mouth is, or do as DJJ said, don't ay anything at all.
I might not be a coder, but I am working my ass off to get templates done with right dimensions and different icons ect for future revisions so people can use it all to make whatever they want, it just saves them a lot of laborious work. I have never seen myself and I never wanted it to come across as such that I am demanding or trying to control anything. I gave my ideas and saw if DK could do them, he tells me if he can or not and I move on. He tells me what he's thinking of doing and I try to make something graphically to fit in with it. So as far as I am concerned it's always been a mutual relationship.
Anyhoo, Don Killah I hope you can ignore all this negativity from the people who are doing it and we can get back to work together. If people have skills in photoshop or whatever or are good coders who want to contribute, I and I'm sure Don are 100% open to you helping out. Either PM one of us or leave constructive ideas on the thread, if you only intend to bitch and whine, piss off to the rant thread that was created, it's probably more suited to you.
