Hey i have made an observation:
It seems to me that there is a link between not understanding DPI/PPI discussion and not understanding vector applications.

@joojaa astute. merits testing
 
1:54 PM
Happy Friday every1
 
CAI
I forgot it was Friday!!
Thank the Flying Spaghetti Monster!
 
2:29 PM
oh yes, it is Frday.
anyone see the new Star Wars movie trailer?
 
not yet
I tend to avoid trailers these days
dont wanna be spoiled
 
I did see it, it didn't feel very Star Warsy to me for some reason
 
thats because its the untold story from return of the jedi.
 
I'm excited about it, but something about the cadence or aesthetic felt like it was a sci-fi movie not set in the SW universe
the untold story?
 
ya the 5 min reference in how they got the battle plans for the death star in return of the jedi is this story.. so its going to be interesting
 
2:33 PM
wrong movie :P
 
O_O
 
with that avatar you're expected to know better!
ROTJ is the third movie, the plans in the plot of this movie are used in A New Hope
 
oh that is right, it was A new hope..
 
CAI
lol
 
blame it on no caffeine yet =P
 
2:35 PM
@Vincent but yes, I'd avoid the trailers if that's a concern. I thought they did a good job for TFA with not revealing too much, but I did feel like I got way more info than I wanted from watching this trailer
 
do we have a sound.se??
 
CAI
@JohnB I got most spoilers from scifi.se!
 
@JohnB I really disliked seeing some plot points on the trailer for Age of Ultron
 
arg! I've mostly adapted to not caring about spoilers, unless I'm reallllly invested in a show or movie. I'll suspend anyone that spoils Game of Thrones for me!
 
2:37 PM
that's why I've been ignoring trailers for Civil War like the plague
same goes for me and Daredevil! Still haven't seen all of S2 yet
 
well I dont plan to go to the movies for ROTJ
I want a movie around R2D2.. a little beep beep fuu beep action..
 
CAI
R2 movie would be awesome
 
I want a movie around Poe and Finn :P
 
ah.. so anyone else getting their second winter?
 
yep, snow apparently tomorrow
 
2:43 PM
nope, spring all around here
 
@JohnB how much snow you expected to get?
 
2:59 PM
I think 3 inches
 
@Darth_Vader Yap. Dumped. \o
 
guess i need to have a bonfire this weekend after trimming and picking up all the limbs.. got down a dead tree so it should burn well. just hope I dont need a permit.. guess I better fire the grill with food if the fire department shows up
 
BTW, I see a few of you guys have commited to the 3D proposal, anyone still missing?
 
@GiantCowFilms I' d like to, but I just cannot come up with ten decent 3D questions. Not even 5...
 
@PieBie Try opening a 3D software pacakge. You will have far more than 5 questions
 
3:13 PM
@GiantCowFilms I have meddled in C4D and Blender, so it's not that... I just don't use them often or intensive enough to have a question that surpasses very basic tutorial stuff.
 
@PieBie When the proposal starts off, there will be plenty of room for basic stuff
 
@PieBie I think we can help. Even better, you can reference what is on GD.SE. That is what several of us have done
 
on blender.stackexchange, some of the most UV'd questions are fairly basic
@Darth_Vader I can help too.
 
CAI
I committed and I generally have no idea about 3d
gives me a great excuse to learn :)
 
I played with it in college, it was fun then
 
3:15 PM
But I hate those stupid, easily googleable Q's here, so I'm not going to spam the boards over at 3D with those :)
you know the kind: I make 3D logo, how? Help now!!
 
3d SE? Awesome.
 
CAI
I get your point @PieBie but not all basic questions have to be like that :)
 
still would like to know why they nuked the first one but then allowed blender.. dont really understand that
 
@CAI indeed they don't, but in order to pose a decent basic Q one has to meddle in 3D programs, and I haven't the time now or in the near future (though I would like to)
 
@JonathanMusso You can commit now. We will get a beta site once we hit 200 area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/86368/…
 
CAI
3:18 PM
thats fair enough.. I probably dont either, but ill do it anyway :)
 
@PieBie I agree
but there are simple questions that are quite valid
 
@Darth_Vader indeed, was talking with @Vincent about this the other day: they should really usurp blender.SE once they go live
 
like "How do I render with a transparent background using V-ray"
@PieBie blender.se will not go down without a fight
 
@GiantCowFilms I don't even know wth a V-ray is, so there you have it :D
 
@Darth_Vader SE has the dumbest policy about fragmentation on area 51
 
3:19 PM
@GiantCowFilms Great thanks, done.
 
I know we shouldnt but Im tempted to go through the entire GD.SE tags for 3D modeling and send them to the beta site.
this will be a concern till someone decides:
-11
Q: Duplicate of Graphic Design

user2284570Proposal : Graphic Design Proposal : 3D Graphics, Modeling & Animation Everything is in the title.

 
@JonathanMusso :D
 
@Darth_Vader ^^
 
That edit needs to be redacted
he completely change the question making all the answers invalid!
 
@GiantCowFilms lol. done.
 
3:21 PM
I just flagged it, oops
 
@JohnB whats coputer?? lol
 
I didn't no other sites mods could A51
 
@Darth_Vader he just changed it back to the original, including spelling errors :p
 
oh wow, facepalm
 
@PieBie rears head you called?
 
3:24 PM
you can only commit to three sites?? bummer
 
@Vincent nothing important, we were talking about the 3D proposal and I mentioned how I thought blender.se should be usurped
 
I saw :)
 
If Ubuntu.SE and Unix.SE can work together in harmony, I'm sure Blender and 3D can too :)
 
I'd rather see all these split sites mereged
 
@JohnB I still think it's weird. It's like having a Photoshop.SE next to GDSE. 3D art should be largely program-agnostic
 
3:32 PM
@JohnB good point
 
In an ideal world, the first iteration(s) of general 3D sites would have taken off. But lack of activity prevented that :\
 
At least the blender.se users seem to be comitting to this one
 
yeah, I think that will be the key to its success this time around
 
still, 6 seems like a small number if you know that blander.se has over 10k users
just got this from a client: On my iPad it looks OK, but on my computer screen the grey is way too dark! Make the grey lighter on the computer! sigh
 
hahah
 
3:52 PM
I think I could start my very own Clients from Hell with just quotes from our own clients...
I'm off, great weekend to everyone!
 
CAI
Have a good one @PieBie
 
@PieBie nice weekend!
@Darth What do you use to make images responsive in WP? As in, have a different size downloaded depending on media size?
 
4:25 PM
@vincent I created a function that adds the Bootstrap responsive class

Q: How to add automatic class in image for wordpress post

Amit SarkerI want to make a responsive theme with Bootstrap 3. However, I need to automatically add the CSS class .img-responsive to every post image because I need the images to be responsive. Please suggest me what I need to add in WordPress's functions.php file or any other file that will allow me to a...

Q: Add CSS class to every image

mancI want to add a CSS class "myimg" to every image both inside and outside of a post. What is the best way to approach this?

 
meh. I don;t use bootstrap :/
thanks tho
 
dont have to just use Bootstrap. You can add a class to images and just call img.class width: 100%; if you wanted
you could create a function that modifies everything for the image. You can even just modify the thumbnails if you wanted to by targeting the image[0] for the post
 
that goes over my head right now, but I'm really tired. Will look in to it next week, thanks!
 
@Vincent have a good weekend!
 
thanks, you too :)

Can't express how gratifying all the praise for Jungle Book's animation is http://www.polygon.com/2016/4/8/11392338/the-jungle-book-review?utm_campaign=polygon&utm_content=chorus&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter IT WAS REALLY HARD
100% not exaggerating when I say I spent 3 days on a single paw.
