4:03 AM
@JohnB Hello!
 
@Appu took a long time, haha
 
@ZachSaucier :D Yeah. Because I fell asleep
How are you doing?
 
doing quite well, thanks
didn't get too much work done today though...
at least not work I need to be doing, haha
 
What have you been up to? Not sure whether I had already asked
 
Today I did organizational stuff and wrote a personal blog post. I also went to class and played soccer. Our team won the semifinal match today, so the final match is tomorrow!
 
4:09 AM
@ZachSaucier Sounds good. You weren't part of that game? Basically you are a graphic designer?
 
?
I played in it, haha
and I'm more of a front end developer than designer. Getting more and more into design though
 
Sorry, your above statement doesn't sound like that you were part of that game to me. I am really interested to develop some fascinating web pages or to design some images, but I am always not up to the mark that I want ;)
I utterly fail when it comes to designing images by photoshop, gimp or whatever.
 
I don't do much image creation
mostly all code
 
But by looking some answers around here I really wonder how can they imagine those many steps and can bring out the image what the questionnaire asked.
Code? o_O
 
@Appu takes practice
 
4:17 AM
You mean you code front-end rather than designing images
?
 
:P I thought you create images by coding, lol..
Of course one can do that by using some languages like vc++ or opengl et.c,
 
@Appu I kind of do that sometimes
but they're better than images because they can change
 
Yeah, we can change them dynamically, that's the power of coding.
You are a mentor?
 
I am
 
4:22 AM
Have seen on facebook :P
for?
 
front end related issues
 
Have sent you fb request.
 
lol?
 
Do I need to pay if I have to learn from you?
Just kidding.
 
4:26 AM
Do you use any frameworks to develop front-end or you mostly deal with on your own by using css?
 
mostly write my own. For larger projects I use frameworks
 
NVM if you had already seen my fb request. Here I have different name.
Oh okay.
 
4:39 AM
@ZachSaucier Have you ever used jquery datatable?
 
not firsthand, nor do I want to :P
 
What would you use if you have to show data that should have similar functinalities?
like datatable.
It comes with default functionalities like sorting, searching etc.,
The problem with that is I am not able to use it properly for huge data
 
dunno
I just don't like jQuery
 
okay
 
 
4 hours later…
8:37 AM
is it just me or GD's CSS is quite broken?
 
8:53 AM
some parts of it, yes
and hi @Yisela
@Zach ping me when you're on for the final result. And no, I won't be able to send you the source file, for the image isn't copyleft
 
9:10 AM
@Yisela what part are you referring to?
 
 
3 hours later…
11:41 AM
hey @JohnB
 
hello
 
how's the aches?
 
mostly subsided
 
12:20 PM
@JohnB Yes it is but usually client should rely on expertise of service provider and advice on each step without deciding everything on behalf of client. If lawyers were like that it would not be fun...
 
@Boris_yo not relying on the expertise of people you hire is rather rampant in the design industry--or rather, in the industries were designers get hired.
 
@Boris_yo yes, I found it a bit odd they picked for you. I do pick Pantone colors for clients sometimes, but I always mention in writing "this is the closest match I was able to find for you"
 
12:37 PM
good morning
 
12:53 PM
@RandyJones ping
 
1:50 PM
@ZachSaucier still there?
 
hehe -- that's the extent of your Dutch? :P
 
:)
Thanks for your help!
 
any time
 
@RandyJones nicely done!
 
2:01 PM
ya, looks great
 
I would have made the image a wee bit darker
To make the text and screen stand out
but still very well done
 
bows
 
@GiantCowFilms queen & duck animation ;)
 
@ZachSaucier huh?
 
@GiantCowFilms hm, good point
 
2:04 PM
 
heh. I actually played that game back in the day
 
@RandyJones I hate it when designers do that
 
Thus, a "ducK" is something purposefully added for a reviewer to fix
 
with some customers, a necessary addition :/
 
It always makes me extra suspicious, and not likely to work with the person again
 
2:08 PM
or have overplayed the duckness
then they haven't been hiding their duck well enough
 
Can I get opinions?
 
Transformer movies suck
 
I really, really love chocolate
 
so far.. I'm on board with both of you :)
 
muscials are for sissies
 
2:20 PM
Impressions?
 
graph
car
 
doesn't look finished
 
downward arrow
corner
 
city
 
why not finished Zach?
 
2:21 PM
space invader
 
@Scott Not sure. Maybe it's the amount of empty space
My mind interprets it as 3D by default
 
k. I was curious if anyone would psychologically fill in planes to form more 3D boxes
that's what I was curious about
Thanks Mod.. whoever you were :)
 
ducks
 
Hello @JourneymanGeek
 
Anyhow.. it's a new personal logo I'm working on. So sick of my current version (which is pretty underused)
Thanks fellas
 
2:25 PM
no probs. any time I can bash Michael Bay is a plus
 
Those movies do really suck :)
45 minutes of wah-wah-wah-wah and you cant' tell what's going on on screen.
 
...and I never even saw one
 
the first one was tolerable... every other one was just horrid. I was forced to watch them :)
 
2:37 PM
hello @Johannes
 
2:59 PM
well, I'm screwed
there's only one block when I can take Chinese next semester
now, after I've signed up, they're making it a "native speaker" course
I'm going to fail so badly, haha
 
ah nice :(
 
On this question, is there an answer with 1 vote and no accept above my answer with 3 votes?
it's like that for me
 
for me, your answer is on top
 
nice ad @Randy
 
3:14 PM
thx
I ripped your *.ai for the chat one, hope you don't mind :)
 
oooh wow now I feel special
 
as you should ;)
 
after uploading it, I realized I broke my own cardinal rule of not outlining text but I'm sure you found the font files easily enough
 
buh. It's Open Sans
that's like the current cockroach of typefaces
 
hah
there's a joke somewhere about deadlines and designers in regards to how we waited 4 months before actually making some ads
 
3:24 PM
there's another joke about how customers expect designers to be creative and have great ideas within minutes of a request :)
 
haha
 
4:01 PM
@RandyJones Hello!
 
hey @Johannes
 
how do you do? Don't see you in here often :)
 
I should warn you, there was another Johannes sneaking around chat... you two may need to duke it out to determine who the best Johannes is
 
battle of the Johannes brothers
 
 
1 hour later…
5:26 PM
hey, Dumbledad's visualisation Q made the 'hot network Qs'
 
5:41 PM
@JohnB Two of me? There can only be one. I call dibs.
 
so it begins
 
dun dun duhn! On my left side, fresh up to the challenge...
 
I WILL CRUSH THE IMPOSTOR!*
*perhaps with kindness
 
well, then we'll just have to have @Johannes_B show up to see whether he's picking up that gauntlet :)
 
I don't know, he's already appended a "B" to the end, I'm sensing a no contest on this one :p
 
5:52 PM
So that means, if we want to discern, we should call you Johannes_A?
 
 
1 hour later…
6:52 PM
anyone understand what Marko's answer is saying?
 
link?
 
you should know you commented on it, lol

Q: Any way to export multiple layer comps to single psd in Photoshop?

user1676691I'm trying to figure out how to export multiple layer comps to a single psd in Adobe photoshop cc. When I use the "layer comps to files" script it exports each layer comp to it's own psd. Much thanks.

 
and he is now banned from answering
 
shows how much I know about the subject
@Darth_Vader what for?
 
6:55 PM
^^
 
self promotion on all his answers were direct links to his website
warned him and guess SE automatically did the ban
debating on removing that answer because it is an extension of his removed answer that was a link only
thoughts?
 
it seems to me that he's only referring to his own script. Otherwise, I can't see heads nor tails on the answer. but I'm a scripting noob
 
@RandyJones I agree which is why Im thinking of removing the answer
 
do it
 
@ZachSaucier can you make heads or tails of the answer as it sits?
 
7:00 PM
no, it's just talking about his script now that I actually read it well
 
nuked
on a positive note Ive been red bull free for a week =)
 
woot!
keep it up
 
great to hear!
 
ok, calling it a night. see you guys 'round.
keep me posted, @Zach when the codrops goes online, will you?
 
'course!
sleep well, friend
 
7:09 PM
sleep comes later it's only 9 here. But the bf requires some attention :)
adios!
 
later
 
7:25 PM
I didn't see the answer is question, but is it bad to link to scripts?
 
you can, but you need to play by the self-promotion rules if you're linking to your own site
 
So third party sites, like github wouldn't fall under that category, right?
 
If it's your script on GitHub, it's better to just give a heads up and say you wrote it to err on the side of caution
some users are quick to flag any sort of external links as spam, whether it is or not
most of the time new users aren't trying to be malicious but are just unfamiliar with the disclosure policy so I try to give the benefit of the doubt when reasonable
 
7:45 PM
Thanks @JohnB
 
7:57 PM
@Johannes also note if you do link to a script its best to talk about and I always suggest having a demo of how the script works or show the source code. As stated by John some will only see its a link and are quick to flag regardless of what the answer or question is
 
8:07 PM
Can anybody explain to me why this question is still open, technically? I flagged it as off-topic and the flag was considered helpful, but it seems to never have entered any review queue nor was it closed and then reopened.
 
Iiiiii'm not sure, heh
we don't handle those flags manually
it did enter the review queue, though
 
@Wrzlprmft because that is not the purpose of the flag system
 
majority voted to closed so it counted as helpful?
just guessing, I don't know the mechanics there
 
are you talking about voting to close or flagging for mod review?
 
flagging to close, you can do that if you don't have enough rep
 
8:11 PM
@JohnB: exactly
 
it will place it in the review queue instead of casting a vote
 
But my question is answered, thanks.
 
8:24 PM
very nice answer on the binding question, @cocky!
 
8:57 PM
@RandyJones Someone called me?
 
9:12 PM
@JohnB Thanks : )
 
:D
 
gees
you need to go out sometime, @iKlsR
 
:D
 
100 days I understand... 700 though?
 
this is tame, there are people going on 2k
that's years
20 something more and I will be at 2 years
 
10:04 PM
I dropped my CSE certificate. Going to take a couple more engineering classes and pick up some graphic design ones :D
@Randy ^^
I think it's a good decision
I still have the knowledge and ability to semi-comfortably work with microprocessors to build things, have the development background to build web apps/sites well, and am learning more about design and such
I hope to focus on front end stuff but also be able to create some more diverse projects for certain clients using a little hardware if need be (like interactive ads or something)
part of the reason for dropping the certificate is the terrible organization on the university's part - they don't even know what courses I'm supposed to take to get it, therefore I have 0 idea
@Yisela Might be interested in hearing that as well
in any case, I have around 30 hours left of courses for my major, so that means I have about another 30 for electives :D
might add another math course or two as well
which means I could graduate early if I really wanted to, but that's not my objective. I want to learn a lot and have a bit more time to work on personal stuff before needing to provide income
