@Ryan and @Vincent It was about my latest question: graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/42727/…

@JohnB what are you doing in here? Go eat some turkey! :P

@Vincent soon!

currently cooking some Indian food~

ah, with your own peppers?

you bet :)

though I did buy a couple fresh jalapenos from the store for a milder dish

sounds good :) happy Thanksgiving!

thanks! And uh, happy Thursday? to you

lol. Yeah, kind of.

Ah well, I'll just wait a bit and gloat that I have a Sinterklaas to celebrate and you guys don't :)

I'll be making some pepernoten on Sunday at the suggestion of my friend

ah, great! I baked some myself last weekend, my first homemades

this is the recipe I'll be following: smulhuisje.blogspot.nl/2011/12/kruidnoten-met-zelfgemaakte.html

looks good

you can have quite the influence on the taste by adusting the ratios of the herbs and spices. some spice mix recipes also add ginger, mace and/or cardamom

Happy Thanksgiving (Fellow Americans and anyone else who wants turkey ;D )

you too, @GiantCowFilms

you still have the darkinned pete with sinterclaas or did that ge

get cancelled for not being PC

heated debate, @joojaa

and it's Black Pete :)

seriously, some celebrations have been overseen by security and /or police

is sinterclaas next i mean you need to be gender neutral and all that

hehe

I guess. before you know it, we'll have to have gay and transgender Petes as well

or 'Rudolphina' the red-nosed reindeerette

sry, can you tell I think PC has been overdone? :)

Hi :)

hello

I have a question

I think graphic design is really fun, and I enjoy doing it

however I suck really bad at it

I would like to get better, but my parents don't seem to think it a worthwhile cause

How would you suggest I work on improving?

That's one of our top-voted questions

what sort of stuff do you work on?

and: hi :)

I just sorta do whatever I feel like - mostly favicons and game sprites

small stuff

Like mc texture packs etc

asking for feedback from others can be a good way to improve

ok,

@Deep Show us your stuff and we can rip it to pieces! Mha ha ha ha :D

Ok.

Here, found it:

udkk0347a436.deepschool.koding.io/solidus/index.html

What do you guys think

@Deep I don't like the gradient when I click the button, but that's just me.

What Else?

The positioning is all over the place... to the top and bottom of the buttons should line up with the top and bottom of the text. The margin between the buttons should be the same as the margin between the funny orange text and the normal text

The font you chose for the funny orange text is nearly impossible to read for me, but again, that could just be me.

Its the Metal Gear Solid Font. Solidus Snake was a Character in MGS2, and I wanted to make something in a similar style to those games

@Deep Okay...

It makes sense, okay? :)

If it is important it is fine, I was just saying that encase you'd done it and could improve it

Yeah

On hover, try make the buttons orange with white text...

ok

and add a little .5 second fade transition using CSS3 animations to make it less jarring when it switches between them

Make that .3 second, mess with the numbers until it looks right

sure, thanks

You're welcome.. PS are those diagrams on the back anything special?

Okay :)... some chemist will probably look at them and laugh...

yeah :)

Like I do when they "Enhance" in movies

Or crack 128-bit encryption by grunting (I'm talking to you Micheal Bay)

ikr

@Deep Anything else you've been working on?

Critiques?

I'm currently working on a game, and am going to soon start on art for it (in a couple of weeks)

@Deep Cool...
