The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

I was going to look up Youtube videos (since it would be faster) to see if I could find any Gimp tutorials that may involve something you don't know how to do. One thing I was thinking of was layers. They make it easier for you to edit the pictures (in my opinion). You don't have to look at the tutorials if you don't want to. It's just an idea.
Youtube videos are fine. Well, I do need something to do anyway.

EDIT: What's layers?

Layers allow you to edit different parts of the picture without effecting the rest of the picture. Here's a tutorial on layers in Gimp:

Work's done. Just have to get the picture taken, then uploaded to paint, transfered to GIMP, then colored.

I'll upload the original version with no edits and the colored version.


But since this is mostly discussing how to upload pictures, I'll start a new section for my fanart called "Scratte's LBT fanart".

I'll put all the same pictures on it, and can an admin close this topic once I start the new one?

I'm having trouble getting it to upload, so my mom is going to try and burn it to a disc, then do it that way.

Finally got the think working!

Here's the raw version of the image!

It's a picture of Ruby hugging Chomper.

Maybe it's because of the camera angle, but Chomper's body seem a little too... long.

And... Ruby has 5 fingers on the right hand. Mutation ?

Ooops.... Oh, well... I'll just edit it out later with GIMP. I never noticed, thanks for telling, and it wasn't the camera angle, that's just the way he came out when I drew him. Not to good with Chomper yet, but Ruby, I'm pretty good with her.

Can't wait to see the TDV fanart?
Yes, like I said your message, I will draw you some scenes from the fanfiction.

But I'm not the best at reading something, then drawing it right a way, so it will be a while. But I am going to make you some pictures sometime.

I normally keep promises when it comes to pictures, even if it's a long time before someone gets it.

Just give me any scene from the first or the second you want drawn, and I'll try as best as I can.

Oh and Chomper4, did you that Brek my be writing a third Total Drama Valley? I asked him if there would be a third TDV and Sharptooth Valley. He confirmed a third TDV :!  but no third sharptooth valley. :cry

How about the scene when Chomper, Tippy, Rory, Cera, Petrie, Shorty, Rita, and Ali get introduced to Harold by Chris, but instead are introduced to Duncan.

Okay, but there won't be any people in it. I'm not to good with people (even cartoon ones) Only penguins, dinosaurs and characters from ice age, but not people in cartoons or real life.

Fine with me. Read Fear Facers if you don't have a clue what Chris is saying.

By the way, Chris can say it offscreen with Duncan, who is also offscreen.
