@box said: Just as an example to make it clearer. In the Corner Bar you can post directly as it is a fully open forum but there are also sub forums within the corner bar for more specific questions. Therefore this thread would be more accurately placed if you had posted it in the subforum called Ideas Box & Board Issues. This is the anything goes forum so it's not that important, the others are more specific so that the questions go to the right places. Thanks again. I rarely stray from the gallery and WIP forums so I am unfamiliar with the rest of the board. I really appreciate the heads up.

Its time the Sheeple wake up and smell the SHIT they are covered in, Its the SHIT that Google is providing in return for free searches, all in the name of finding new advertising revenues. Same is true for FB, Twitter, Linkedin, etc. etc. But you have the option: opt out. and please complain vigorously, otherwise we will all be ruled by these predatory Companies, ....unless you like the smell! My advice: Don't use Google search engine. I use https://startpage.com/ as my startup search page. Don't buy an Android OS device. All you are buying a device that Google uses to spy on you. Run CCleaner each day on your computer system. On an Android OS you can't log out of Gmail. After doing simple search for "anything" you discover advertisements for "anything" on all your subsequent searches. Also some Newspaper links wont work on Android without a paying account. Its still best to stay with a Windows OS. Recently my password protected .zip files were rejected. I could not send them via Gmail. The comment was my zip file contained a virus. I had to remind the Gmail forum that the .rb extension is a Ruby file extension not a virus. I then changed the .rb extension to .txt, the file now passed the Silly Gmail Virus checker. I reminded the Gmail forum of this fact. Now my password protected .zip files are no longer rejected. Makes one wonder what type of people Google employs?

looks good, I was wondering what happened to this project. I have some questions so if you can ahare can you tell me: Which kind of concrete did you use? How did you make the corners, touch friendly, I guess consistently rounded is what I am trying to say? How does it perform thermodynamically is it could for sitting ?

@olishea said: I keep watching this video... Agree, pretty hypnotizing.

@numerobis said: Many great images on this page! But some people seem to think that their poor work looks better when they flood the list with multiple images... We were allowed to send 5 images per category.

Cool

@bryan k said: It's not the tools that matter in the end, it's the "eye". For musicians the "ear." The same for all the other arts. Better tools just produce a better result for those with the talent, but the best tools in the world will never make anyone who is mediocre, great. I agree

Looks like Dave has already replied to you.

@dukejazz said: Why don't we pay them to raise Elephants under contract and them give the Elephants to the people that paid to raise them when they die.... then make sure that register Elephants are only then sold for body parts. Turn poacher to raise them... like rancher... longer they live the more money they receive paid noting when they die ....only value in Elephant are the living ones. ...death penalty if you murder one. or steal one....... only contractor can sell Good suggestion, although I would not be keen on the death penalty for poachers. Most of these guys seem to be dirt poor. Its the 'middle men' that should face severe penalties. World Wildlfe have the 'Adopt an African Elephant' program. [image: qwS6_large-African-Elephant-photo.jpg] Details here, http://gifts.worldwildlife.org/gift-center/gifts/Species-Adoptions/African-Elephant.aspx?sc=AWY1307WC918 I'll talk to Rich about SketchUcation adopting an elephant .... we could call him / her ' Push/Pull

Thanks for the information, I just wanted to know why for my own education.

@hieru said: @krisidious said: I require people to pay in phases. Sketch, Preliminary and the Construction docs. They pay at the beginning of each phase. That sounds like a good approach - I think I'll have to give it a go some time. Normally I rely on a rock-solid contract and a 50% deposit (if they won't pay that then it's usually a good indicator that you'll have trouble collecting your fees at the end of a project). Same process here. Worked well for the last 10yrs

Certainly puts things in perspective. KrisM

@daniel said: I wonder why "real film" and not digital? They are both nothing but a medium, but I would think digital would be so much easier for editing and distribution. Film [media] is still considered the 'art', and the quality far superior, the major disadvantages are actually the 'shoot' day logistics, matching stock, waiting for rushes and clearances... the majority of british films I have worked on use both, digital for high speed and super high speed action, film for dialog and majestic images... digital is catching up... both are expensive to do well, but digital can be done on the 'cheap'... I have friends working on this series of films and they say that security is the most extreme they have ever encountered... I do special physical effects, and a lot of these can be enhanced with digital effects, but not economically replaced... [ yet ] john

Did anyone get the sound bite? The bird has a microphone. And, yes, we do need to ponder. Edible 3d printing is gearing up.

Thank you Yes 365 is a big number. If she manages to get this funded though it should be amazing: seeing the progression of a whole year, the cycle of the seasons, through the paintings. Unearthed: yes, as if painting in oils wasn't challenging enough, the issues of working outdoors add a whole new set of complications. Louise has found ways to deal with this, although on occassion she does return home with almost as much paint on her as on the canvas! Thanks for the kind words everyone. It means a lot. A.

It was odd to see this on the news - it felt more like a unique painting or sculpture being destroyed. Although I've never been to see the building, I (like most people) am pretty familiar with it & particularly fond of the design details. I am quite sure Glasgow School of Art will be restored with every care - the building is held in such esteem by all.
