Q: Why did my autogenerated avatar change?

joojaaRecently icons in stackexhange network had a bout of confusion. Then some people reported that the icons of users were all wrong. Now icons seem to have stabilized to a new normal. Unfortunately my icon has changed. Did the algorithm determining the gravatar change? How do i get the old one back...

bug

the movie was pretty good. Bit depressing towards the end but I enjoyed it
 
johnp
johnp
ah, so you went. cool, i may see it if i get a chance
lol my friend does some theatre work now and again. as a warm up they all did this improv where they made animal noises. lol but her parents purposely taught her all the animal noises wrong as a kid so it was hilarious xD
Everyone was like..."em..that's not a zebra"

I tried an improv class once when I really really little. We have a decent club here that a few people have come out of. Most famous being Wayne Brady
The rest are mostly guest appearances in terms of acting but a few have become lead voice actors
 
johnp
johnp
oh cool
would you try it again after seeing the movie? lol. im not sure i could do it
 
Ryan
Ryan
I've considered trying standup but then I remember I'm not funny hahahaha

So no, no I wouldn't

I'd like to watch Charlie & the Chocolate Factory again, it's been a long time
someone posted this comment to my question... interesting, though not what im looking for
 
Ryan
Ryan
I need instructions for that lol
Looks interesting but I wouldn't know what to do with it
 
johnp
johnp
same!
im just imagining a perfume bottle....the light would pass through air, glass, liquid/air,glass again
so it gets crazy complicated

perhaps asking on Core77 would get better results?
But really I think the question might amount to -- if the audience understands it the hyperrealism isn't relevant for a product rendering
 
johnp
johnp
:(
yeah im not looking for too much realism, just an approximation
with everything i draw, i construct it based on how i know light works. so it just frustrates me a little
i never heard of core77
ooh the forum looks useful
 
Ryan
Ryan
think I'm going to start uploading some of my Photos to Unsplash
heya @Cai
nice weekend?
 
johnp
johnp
that'd be cool, you seem to sell yourself short though
why not upload to a paid stock site
 
Ryan
Ryan
3:30 PM
I might do that as well at some point but right now I don't have anything to upload to them
 
johnp
johnp
some nice macro floral shots would be good
 
Ryan
Ryan
The gardens I frequent allow photography but not for commercial use.
 
johnp
johnp

Cai
Cai

Just on a brief stop on a 8 hour drive today :(
Hey @johnp
 
Ryan
Ryan
I'm sure people ignore that and sell or attempt to sell photos of the gardens but I do my best to respect licenses
Its why I haven't made a video tutorial of converting color film to look processed. Even that written tutorial I was debating on because I had no permission to use the negative I found on google :(
going to upload that one to Unsplash but its giving me problems. Ill try again at home or trouble shoot it

@Ryan I've had an answer to your pathfinder vs compound path vs knockout question sitting here for three days....
but it's waaaaay too long
:(
 
Ryan
Ryan
I'll read it, nobody else will but then nobody else will read it even if its short
 
Cai
Cai
Yeh.. if someone else posted it as it is I'd probably downvote it for being too long so I'm not posting it as is
lol
I'll definitely cut it down and post it later
 
Ryan
Ryan
eh you accepted my LAB answer despite my ramblings and barely related quotes and references
flavor flave!
 
Cai
Cai
But even the slightly-unrelated bits were entertaining so I let you off that :)
