Deviation Actions
Due to reasons that are foreign to me, a tutorial that I wrote in September of 2003 is now on the front page of the website in February of 2017. What a pleasant surprise! I'm glad to see that this is still being of some use after all this time and that Photoshop hasn't changed all that much. Since that will mean people flocking to this page, I wanted to write a little message:
Welcome! I hope that you like what you see. It is a glimpse of what I created many many years ago. The lack of activity does not represent a lack of interest in art. Design/art is what I do for a living, so I do not do it as much of a hobby anymore. Let me tell you that this is not a bummer by any means. Be that as it may, the door is never closed. And speaking of open doors, feel free to ask any questions that you may have!
Most people around here will be new to me, but I do hold fond memories of the people with whom I interacted frequently throughout the years. You know who you are and I hope you're doing just as well.
Regards,
-Cristian

Another Earth? Nope, same as this one
I was watching the movie "Another Earth" when I noticed something familiar. To be more specific, artwork that looked like something I made a few years ago. I used the word "familiar" very loosely, because I'd recognize something that I made anywhere from very few details.
At the 17 minute mark of the movie, the main character goes on a website to write a small essay for a contest. Guess what artwork is used as part of the background of that website? This: http://fav.me/d18g5o
It's just rotated, but it's exactly the same! The flare has the same angles and the Earth is showing the exact same position. I made that
Custom Shirts - Where?
Over the years, I've been getting requests from some people about having a few of the designs that I've made available as shirts. I always thought it was "one of those things" where it could be much more effort than it was worth. However, as selfishly as this might be, I've just made a few personal designs that I'd like to have made as shirts. As such, I could make a few of the designs available including some new ones.
However, I could use some guidance in choosing a service. I figured that the art community (and hopefully a few of the people who will stumble upon this entry) will have a better idea than me (which is none!) One with so
Thank you, CNN
Thank you, CNN, for you have made me chuckle. When I see things like these, I can't help to think that someone realized it and made it happen (or made it more obvious). What am I referring to?
THIS
I'd normally just leave it at that. However, 5 years after posting my Grammar Natzee poster, people still tell me that I misspelled the word Nazi. So as a service to those people:
One line mentions Kelsey Grammer, which has a last name that is the word Grammar misspelled. And, on the next line...they mention Spelling.
I mean, it's not that big of a stretch, is it? It's not Glenn Beck-ish, right? It is awesome in every way!
Another One For The Bilinguals
I've always been interested in how people handle the same situation differently and the motives behind their attitudes, so it's no wonder that I ask lots of these questions. Yes, it depends on the situation, but this one has a more general approach. And it goes like this.
"So Cristian (my real name), I notice that you have an accent. I can't quite figure it out"
"Ah yes, I'm from Argentina."
"Oh! So you speak Spanish?"
"Yes"
Yes, anyone who is bilingual has been in this position (save for the country and language specifics). However, your answer to the last question is where my curiosity arises. In this example, I said "yes" instead o

"Photoshop hasn't changed all that much."
I was actually thinking the same recently. Adobe CC 2017 is functionally very similar to CS6. Bit like MS Office becoming feature complete in Office XP back in 2002.
