What inspired u to the world of graphics?
« on: January 29, 2007, 10:50:20 PM »

To me it was royals fascination. I loved Prince william and Harry for being good people, and reading abt them and maintaining their group got me to html. I started learning html. Then I wanted to make their graphics so free trial version, then adobe photoshop,. Then it ended, the craziness of sitting for 16-18 hrs on internet searching and updating their news every minute. And my fascination went on to anime. Then html and graphics fascination had ended. But I came across Sakura cafe . org I looked at its graphics, buttons avtars, banners, 404signs. layouts... felt like Tomoyo for sakura... and loved them, d/l each. The site got hacked and ended never to return! I miss it, but even now I look on its graphics for inspiration. And by god, I haven't seen such beautiful graphics anywhere. I miss that site so much. But I got inspired, and want to be as good as webmistress as she was of that site. My other inspiration was the first site I learnt html from, it got down, came up again but to go down again. Its owner Ursula was really sweet too.

For me such sites have been inspiration to go on... always love graphics and try and make friends. What do you feel inspired by?

I really can't remember o _o... I just started when I wanted to make a spanish Outlaw Star site, since there weren't any spanish ones, so I started making a site instead of learning how to make graphics first.

I have always been interested in art... and graphics was the only way i could express it properly. I cant really express my self using pen on paper.

I used to use Geocities to make a website with their wysiwyg editor, and it kind of drew me into HTML. I wanted to learn how to make them on my own, without the editor, and how to make better sites, so I started learning, hehe.

I came across Soundless-Words, and ever since, I've been obsessed with graphics, and web design.
To be honest, I'd never really seen a site like SW, and when I came across it I was amazed.
Since then, I've been to countless graphic design sites, and have started to make graphics myself. Hopefully, one day, I'll be able to design graphics like Celestial Star, and Soundless-Words.

I don't know. I just needed to resize an image from my camera [for some photography] in school and I find Adobe Photoshop and I just clicked on it and learned by myself. =]

Awesome, hehe. That's actually how I kinda did it. Mainly, I just saw a lot of awesome graphics and such while I was browsing website (any website, really) and wished I could be that good. So I started practicing. O.o

I don't know what really inspired me. I just needed to resize it. But at first, I was like ]OMG! This is hard and I placed it on Paint and the image was like...ewww. Then yeah, I learned how by myself. =]

^ ^' I had an online diary at some Thai Website and I wanted to upload the songs that I want. So I was looking for some Anime songs. Then now I have the anime songs I don't know where to upload it. I searched hosting and stuff then I ended up at someone's Anime Graphic site. I loved it! so I start looking for more and more and more and ended up wanting to make one myself

Well, When I was always on the internet, I would see all these avatars and wallpapers and I just got jealous (and I could never find the wallpaper that would work with me) :P - I asked my parents if i could download Photoshop and all that fantastic stuff. But when I finally got it, I was so baffled on how to work the darn thing. Thankfully I was able to figure it out on my own and well you know the rest... I guess.

My friend gave me Adobe Photoshop for my birthday. I picked up everything I know from tutotrials online. Now I just grab a few things and expiriment until I think it looks good. I even ended up getting a web site for it. Even though it is a total dump right now.  Disappointed
