Wow, the graphics for this game are really phenomenal. lol this may be a silly question, but are they're dragons? I haven't seen any yet..
About icons, I don't know of any tutorials, but you should be able to make them without one! It's pretty easy. Standard size is 100x100. Use high quality pictures & play around with PS actions. Save as .png. That's all I do anyway!
They really are! I like just looking at the scenery sometimes! Yep! In that shot where I wrote: "Come back Flemeth!!" that's a dragon flying away. Here's a better shot of Flemeth in dragon form! Plus there's others. :)
Hmmm!! Maybe that's what's I'm doing wrong! Not resizing them to 100x100 before I upload! That makes sense! LOL!! Thanks!:)
What I do is create a new 100x100 picture in PS. Open up the picture I want to use for the icon and apply my action(s) to it. Then, Copy it and paste it in my new 100 by 100 picture. From here, if you want to resize your image to fit the icon, you can hit Control+T. You'll see what this does immediately. When you're done, hit the checkmark in the tool bar.
UMPH I love these pics! Especially that one with Anders + Fenris = epicness to the extreme!
Varric ALWAYS = AWESOME! If he wasn't a dwarf he would be so freaking hot to me /random
You had to ruin things by posting a pic of Seb? *pukes on his face & walks off*
:P
But seriously your images are beyond eye catching! What options are you doing to get things so VIBRANT? & ugh I hate making icons, lolol! I dunno why but it is my least favorite thing to do in the world. Especially b/c so often a pic looks amazing, you crop it, resize, then suddenly it looks stupid & you have to start over with a different picture - sigh.
^_^ Thank you!!! OMG!! I LOVED the way it turned out! I paused the game and just stared at it before snapping a shot! I blame that on playing the Sims! Hahaha!!
VARRIC!! Why can't he be romanced!? That's just wrong on so many levels!! Although, I guess the animations would be weird...hmmm...
Bwahahahaha!!!! You are in the minority! Even if he has taken a vow of chastity he's still nice to look at! And listen to! ;)~
Thank you!!! *blush* I just downloaded some new actions and I used a combination of them to make a new action for DA 2. Let's see...opens up PS now...I'm using these by Princess of Shadows(screen mode and color boost) and then I fiddle with the contrast sometimes. And then sometimes I just open up photoscape and hit bloom(brighten mode) and go from there. If it's not easy I don't want any part of it! LOL!!
I linked to a tutorial in the comment above me! I'll probably edit my post to add it! My icons end up the same way!! *cry*
I PAID TOO!! Hahaha!! I didn't know he was Scottish and when he started talking...*drool* So worth it! Hehehe! I'm taking my time this time too(I didn't finish my first play through yet and in a relationship with Bastian.). This time I'm a rouge and trying to romance Anders! ^_^ I have to take all the side quests! Blah!
My uber card is out of commission until I get a new power supply... but my husband has the same one I do and the game looks AMAZING with the high res textures! So worth playing on PC for. The screens are amazing... almost enough to make me play again. Almost.
Actions are my life. I would die if I didn't have them to resize/etc for me. I usually make my own. Embrace the actions, they looove yoooou! <3
OH NO!!! :( That sucks but yes, YES IT DOES!!! I can never go back to playing it on PS3. NEVER!! LOL!! I'm playing two different games and going to play a third as a mage and see what happens!
LOL! I've always noticed your icons and been jealous! Like what?? How did she get that? Where? WANT!!! Now that I've learned about actions I can never go back...never go back...never go back! That's from some movie...I can't remember which one! I love the actions back! Seriously!
LOL!! That's what I keep telling myself! So far...it's not working!!! :(
I play on the PC. I started out on the PS3 but the PC version was on sale at Wal-mart one day and I grabbed it. After seeing those graphics...I can NOT go back! :(
Supposed you can hook up some cables and do some other crazy stuff to take pics on the PS3 or you can get one of those Eye accessories and use those! :D
Well, we have to careful with money at the moment because Ryan's job is a little iffy at the moment. See, he works on designing and updating nuclear power plants and it's not a good time to be working on those for multiple reasons. Firstly, a bunch of money just got cut out of the budget and, although Ryan isn't technically a government employee, his company gets a lot of money from the government and if any of that gets cut, it hurts. On top of all that, what with the trouble going on in Japan tied in with the fact that a lot of nuclear power plants are going to have to be expensively updated soon, it's looking like people may just shut down some power plants, which would be really bad because most of Ryan's company's money comes from updating. So... not good. Although, he did just text me that he got a bit of a raise, so here's hoping that's a good sign and it's not just them fucking with our heads... *crosses fingers
( ... )
Ahhh...I see, I see! Yikes! That is a tough situation to be in. Here's hoping that everything works out for Ryan! *crosses fingers* How long has he been with his company? I mean, that should stand for something right?
Oh no they weren't that bad but you know how computer graphics own most consoles yeah(think playing Sims on the console vs computer)? Hmm...you know it's easier for me to plan out the battle on the computer than with the controller. But then there are some games that I can't play on the computer(Assassin's Creed for one!). So...I guess it all depends!

But, out of curiosity (I have a birthday, eventually) do you play DA2 on the PC? Or the PS3? (And, if it is the PS3, how DO you take the pics?)
