That's SWEET!!! Awsome job Bam....It really looks good. About how long does it take to create something like that? Just wondering. It'd be awsome if you could design some kind of AMD Guru Wallpaper that I could use on my computer <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0"> I'm sure other AMD'ers would love it. I'd be willing to donate some $$$. You should have used your project as a way to earn a little something for yourself. Of course doing it for a good cause like F@H is also a great idea.
I think one of the criteria for HowardBAM's project was that it had to be for a non-profit cause. <BR>I'd get one designed by him too<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> Either the Veyron or the Enzo<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">
LOL <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> thanks shiz!!!... thanks a lot... i am flattered!!!.. it took me on and off about 3 weeks. but on and off thos. so that means i didn't get to work on it everyday during the 3 weeks. since i have other classes. this is only one of my many design classes. i have other classes like web design, typography, photography ...etc. <BR><BR>it's not so much the technical difficulty, it's more of the idea. it's really hard to come up with a good concept. like right now we're designing US currency bills for our next project. and for the longest time i just couldn't think of any ideas to apply on the computer. untill last night after i went to staples to buy some paper. i had this craziest idea for US currency. so took me hours last night to come up with my first beta bersion of a 10 dollar bill. turned out surprisingly my prof loved it. he smiled and said "you don't have to tell me anything, it's good!". unfortunatly i can't show it to you guys on the net. as the designed is very paper limited. it'll just look very ****ty without the special paper that i applied on. <BR><BR>anyways.. i probably went too far off the subject making you fall asleep. but yeah.. i'll look into the AMD design. i've always wanted to design a good AMD wallpaper. but like i said.. i just can't see it in my head yet!. maybe one day when i pick up a bottle of orange juice!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> <BR><BR>PS... thanks too zaltec!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
and shiz, i have gotten sponsor offers before. some guys wrote and and asked me if he could put my stuff on his site and for every so many downloads he gets he'll give me a few bucks. and on top of that he'll give me new e-mail account and free webpage. but the point is .. i went to his site and check it out. it turned out to be some site that's full of pop-ups and ads. it's up till a point where i dont even wanna visit the site anymore. so i never replied back to him.

Bam...after checking out your site I downloaded the two AMD Pics and a couple others. A nice project for you, in my opinion, would be to design a WinXP Theme or something like that. It'd take a lot of work, but it seems like the kind of thing you'd like to do. I just opened Paint Shop Pro which I have no use for (Freeware from KaZZa) and started f*cking around. I made the resolution way to high and tried painting something and my computer just froze and took about 20 mins to sort things out....OOPS!
LOL.... yeah... those resolution can kill you!!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">. that wallpaper page is so old by now. it's like from last year. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> i really really need to update my site. i'll do it during this spring break!. those AMD posters are samples i got some other graphic design artists. once i get a change.. i'll update my site with all my new works so you guys can download them!! i've thought of making those themes but i think my interest is mainly on wallpapers, websites and animations. but you never know.. maybe one day i might just visualize something crazy and do it. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Themes are the way to go. More people use Themes than wallpaper. I prefer a nice picture of some hot chick centered on my desktop, not stretched across it. I don't like my Icons to be over the picture. Maybe I'm just crazy. You should make a PCStats Theme....have Colin's pic be "my computer"....then again, maybe not. The theme is supposed to be an improvement on the original <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Love the poster BAM!...very nice. I don't like icons messing up my desktop pic either....that's why I don't have any icons on my desktop.

thanks GNxtreme! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> <BR><BR>i'll look into the pcstats wallpaper colin <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> although currently i need to catch up with school work and then there is this essential update that i need to do for my website. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif" border="0">

Haha, Howard BAM! obviously take your time...
