The NEW Official Arcade Stick Art Thread NO IMAGE QUOTING!

ehh whatever i’ll never use it so why bother fixing it

Why bother posting it?
Laugh

I honestly feel like i’ve been out of the loop in forever so i went back and was looking thru my gallery and noticed alot of my stuff looks kinda of ass and it could be better! Anyways i was hoping i could get some input on some of my older pieces to see what i can improve on and work on! I want to get back into the groove of putting out templates. I’ve been working on signatures and wallpapers to try to improve myself for the past 4 months or so and to develop new techniques.

Im going to post 4 templates two of which i think look ok and two which i feel look like ass so i can get some honest feed back from yall!!

Name me a site that provides better service and I’ll give it some thought.

Male Dante was much better in my opinion by the way.

Just finished my Fightstick Pro art. Tried to make it look like the original red/white Fightstick Pro art. Going to use a yellow balltop and black/yellow buttons.

I know you’re new here but do not quote images or it will result in an infraction from a mod. Go to edit and cut the image out.
Enjoy your stay at SRK!

I actually liked the wallpaper a lot. Thanks for the higher resolution.

Can anyone offer advice for opening one of d3v’s templates (specifically, the Q4 RAF one) if I don’t have photoshop? I tried using GIMP, but it complained about not support CMYK. Google suggests that enabling this support on windows is a hassle and I’m at work. I don’t need anything high quality, I’m just doing a rough draft of an art design; could anyone either A) upload the Q4 template using not CMYK color, or B) offer alternative advice?

The Yun and Shuma Gorath templates look kinda bland. The Yun looks like it needs something in the bottom right corner, and the shuma…I just don’t know. I’m sure you’ll think of something. You always got great work.

My WIP art for one of my future projects… :slight_smile:
(Colors around buttons is just here to show you my button colors, these colors will not get printed out to the art)

Need Tech Talk’s opinion on this one. I wanted to do an amory wars stick, and ended up with two designs, and I just can’t choose. Thoughts?

defiantly the black and white one your main focus character gets a little lost in the colored one

ive used photobucket imageshack and imgur before, imageshack.us is the best imo

tinypic is photobucket?
And photoshack sucks in my opinion. I always get tons of adds.

image shack, no adds. except a banner on bottom and one on right, but what retard clicks them anyway, its the fastest loading for people from my geological location, and also the easiest to copy a direct link, and the best to upload 1:1 size and format ratio.

Edit: i think u lack a activex plugin blocker like spywareblaster i recommend u download it.

I ran into the same problem using Gimp. The only alternative I can think of is get the Photoshop trial and save all of the templates you might need into RGB color mode. I might do the same, before my Photoshop trial runs out.

I always use Gimp, but you’re right about getting it to read CMYK being a hassle.

So for now, here is the Template saved in RGB mode. Tell me if it works for you, Dagon.

Quanba Q4 RAF Template

Imageshack is the best site.

Simply because of its unlimited bandwidth or if it has a limit… i haven’t reached it yet lol (and i reached photobucket’s one in like… .3 days in a forum with only like 10 people?) also I dont have to be a member to use it, so if i want to upload some random pictures that I can’t link otherwise, its perfect.

I’ve used Photobucket and Tinypic. And Tinypic is the best of all time!

tinypic as i said before never loads, photobucket is fail cause of how u cant keep the same resolution of the photo u uploaded(and it even recompresses it), and also u have to login everytime and also u have to go through 3 windows just to get the image direct link and also since it has a upload limit. alsoalsoalsoalsoalsoalsoalsoalsoalsoalso
