Pixey I don't post much anymore but I couldn't help myself with your gallery. You've taken PDN portrait painting to the next level! I am so impressed with your portraits. Especially the Hugh Jackman one. Wish I could I have a lesson in digital painting in PDN. So very impressive!

Hi Andres, Could you clarify your question? Are you trying to split a single image into four equal parts? Or are you trying to enlarge an image? If you want to split the image, you can use the selection tools while holding shift on your keyboard to select perfect squares. From there, you can crop the image to your selection, four separate times, to get your four separate frames of the image. If you're trying to enlarge your image, you can resize it from within Paint.NET but I don't recommend that option because it will leave it blurry and pixelated Hope that helps, Nab

Logged on to a campus computer, and sure enough, even though every one of them on campus have the full Adobe suite, PDN 3.5x was included as well! Booyah

If the force were made up of waves it could pass through the object with ease (such as sound waves travelling through a piece of paper). I guess it depends how dense the immovable object is, and what kind of material the unstoppable force is. I know I'm probably wrong on this - but I just figured I'd through it out there

Both TES V: Skyrim and AC Revelations came out this week! I wish I were back home with friends that own gaming consoles Love those game franchises.

I messed up my computer by accidentally starting a drive restore and then deciding it was a bad idea about 3% of the way through, so I made an Ubuntu live disc on my flash drive and have now been booting with it for almost a month haha

I agree with pdnnoob. Also, I'd try to focus on a scene, or an idea, rather than a character.

Welshy! I don't know if this has been brought up or not - but on your Revved Up piece, the shadow in the center shouldn't rotate with the dial as it moves across the meter, because the lightsource isn't changing, correct?

Ah I'm sorry man! Didn't realize it would cause such feelings. My specific school campus was relatively close to Microsoft's main offices, in Washington state - so I assume it had something to do with such low prices

Ash! So good to see you around here! Can't wait to see what you've come up with over time

My guess, is that it checks for updates through PDN's homepage.

I know! Me too -- student accounts are so nice for software discounts. I got Win 7 Professional and Office 2010 for $20. Kind of ridiculous considering the average retail price!

Hello everyone. I enjoyed reading through this discussion. I can definitely relate with activity levels and PDN releases - bigger gaps seem to pull me away from the forums, or instigate drama. It's something that's been on my mind in regards to this forum - whether it be about the Pictorium, mod roles, or feedback in general. Thanks for clearing everything up! You're a great bunch of people.

Ahahah! That is just pure genius.
