Here is my challenge. You would have to turn the volume up to maximum to hear the music.

All the videos I have made doing this will never ever see the light of day. They are way too cringe.

Also, I would rep you again but I can't twice in a row.

I know I'm 3 days late on my own challenge, but I've been procrastinating so.

I've been needing to learn how to use GIMP properly since I'm a lazy fucker that doesn't want to go through the effort to get Photoshop to work on Mint, even though it's super easy, and I used it in probably the most least productive way. And let me tell you, I LEARNED A LOT (like how gimp doesn't have any equivalent to photoshops clipping layer just fucking kill me). So consider this an official reveal: I'm making a forum skin.

Here's a teaser of what's to come:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...ghg/necrum.png

It's got that authentic late 90s early 00s feel to it. I'm so proud.

It'll be a reworking of the current Industrial and Native themes, getting rid of the oddity of the background and including the community tab up top so everyone knows about the groups function, as opposed to just a handful of people using the vbulletin theme or whoever happens to check out the MO and HB theme. I'm not willing to go out of my way to completely code a new skin, but I will go out of my way to make sure we can work these features into this skin. I'm about 85% done with it overall.

I'd have waited for Soulstorm to come out but I think we can all agree we're long overdue on a new theme and someone could easily replace the graphics used for this with more modern necrum graphics that come out of Soulstorm in a couple years.

Updating to the challenge of Slog Bait, I have finally learned Sociology and written the test successfully.

Slog Bait, that is pretty majestic. +Reþ.

A new challenge for everyone. Write something about your favourite member of OWF.

Varrok 03-16-2016 05:32 AM

It looks great!

I have an advice on how to make it even better.
Use Photoshop

Also it seems like more work than STM has made in his entire life towards it.

My favorite OWF user's name starts with V.

Nepsotic 03-16-2016 05:48 AM

Yeah, because Photoshop is totally stable on Linux.

Also nice work Slog.

Speaking of my favourite OWF member, I only like Slog and Vyrien. The rest of you can eat a fat bag of dicks, although most of you would probably enjoy it. Thinking about it, I'm pretty sure Vy is the only person on this forum who doesn't like cock.

It would be like asking a mother to choose between her children.

I have my favourite person on the forum. It is MeechMunchie. He is just not bothered by anything anymore.

Vlam 03-16-2016 06:30 AM

I want to stare MeechMunchie's chest.

Varrok 03-16-2016 06:32 AM

Get him a 10 thousand followers first

Vlam 03-16-2016 06:59 AM

By the way, I heard there was something special about MeechMunchie's hand.

Alf Shall Rise 03-17-2016 05:48 AM

That banner looks pretty cool, Slog. Looking forward to see how the rest of the skin comes along.

Xorlidyr 03-18-2016 08:25 AM

I challenge everyone to sing... in glossolalia.

STM 03-18-2016 11:15 AM

Oh man...I really need to crack on with my Necrum skin...shit.

Looks fuckin A, boss.

Slog Bait 03-21-2016 10:28 AM

Man I have way too many posts I want/need to reply to :(

O thanks pal.

And man, I already know how to use Photoshop. How am I supposed to be truly versatile if all I know is a single image editting program? It's just not viable.

It's not very hard to make it function well on Linux. I'm just 50000x too lazy to even bother. So instead, I take the hard way around and just completely learn an entirely new program because that's how I do and u kno that

Thx bb <3

What is this "glossolalia"

Well uh lol, it's entirely coincidental, but I am working on a Necrum theme. I had a small list of themes I wanted to work on from back when Manco attempted to lead that skin project, but out of all of them, Necrum was the best choice for a theme that wouldn't hurt my eyes looking at it for an extended period of time. Feeco was still a little too bright, Sekto Springs was very much too bright though the colour scheme was very pleasing, and everything else had the same issues I have with the current Native and Industrial themes.

Once the Necrum skin is done, after a bit, I'll probably work towards building a theme entirely from scratch rather than reverse engineering and tweaking existing themes. But, we'll see.

Also progress is at like... 93%. The last 5% I might have to do after the theme's already been applied and I've dug deep enough to find what still needs to be adjusted.

Glossolalia is a senselessly pronounced sequence of sounds.
Some religions call it the only true language.

To sing like that, just sing a melody saying something gibberish.

Xorlidyr 03-26-2016 02:07 AM

I challenge everyone to do the same that MeechMunchie did in the "How do you look like?" thread.

Varrok 03-26-2016 02:18 AM

I challenge everyone to don't. And post progress on not doing this.

STM 03-26-2016 02:52 AM

I accept the challenge to don't! How am I doing varrok?

Varrok 03-26-2016 02:53 AM

I don't see your picture in the WDYLL thread.

Keep up the good work!

STM 03-26-2016 02:54 AM

:D

Nepsotic 03-26-2016 08:40 AM

I challenge everybody to not post in this thread again.
