Fair enough.

Remember the debate about the Rebels being terorrists (what bs) and Confeds being good?
Pity you took all my arguments...o_o although you forgot to mention that there were so many freaking assumptions it was hard to count them all (in Joshua's post)... </off topic>
I look forward to seeing the next pic.

I'm still working, I'm still working...I'll have a scenery posted sometime soon.
In the interim, I sent an old picture to Jonathan Boyd for your viewing pleasure (he should be posting it up sooner or later). This one's not a landscape, it's an old sketch of a ship. I titled it the Setalriitanius Imperial Dreadnought ;).
Oh, and I petitioned EVula for some webspace. If he grants my request, I'll thank Jonathan for his services and free up his iDisk by hosting there. But until then...feel free to critique either this picture (when it comes up), and any in the future.

Woo! This thread gave me a great idea! I have allway's been discouraged from doing plugs because I love to come up with new ship ideas but can't handle 3D apps yet. I now realize that if I did a total conversion or a graphics rehash I could do it in illistrator or some other 2D app! Imagine EV Nova with superstlyized 2D graphics made in Illistrator! Now all I have got to do is get good enough at Nova Tools to do the project I have been planing. Don't expect anything from me though as I am notoriously short on time.

I briefly played with Illustrator for this purpose. Nice thing is you're working with vector graphics, so scaling and rotating doesn't lose you any detail and it's very easy to go back and edit specific elements. I'd be interested to see what someone spending more than an hour on it could cook up.
About a year ago, a friend and I fiddled with making 2D sprites with Cartoon Editor. It's freeware -- can't beat that price -- has vector drawing capabilities, imports bitmaps, and can export Quicktime movies of your creations spinning nicely around their center points. We fed the movies (which were of fish cartoons downloaded from the web -- we are admittedly goofy people) through w00tware's m2s, made masks in GraphicConverter, and tossed 'em into EnRLE. I don't remember all details about Cartoon Editor, but I did figure out how to do an engine (er, fish) glow.
Cartoon Editor (for OS X) is here, if anyone is interested: (url="http://"http://www.personal.utulsa.edu/~jeremy-wood/software/editor.html")http://www.personal....are/editor.html(/url)
I know fancier packages can do this (ImageReady, I'd bet), but Cartoon Editor gets to the point fairly quickly and is more, well, free. It's not perfect.
You could use this method to animate more serious art, but at the time of our experiments, I remember wishing that I knew a good amateur cartoonist. It would be a hoot to have a cartoon-themed TC. Could be anything from original B & W doodles (think how small the plug-in file could be) to Futurama! Heck, do Spongebob, if you can figure out the viewing angles! Dilbert! Doonesbury! Rex Morgan, M.D.!
Anyway. I blather.
