Happy Valentine’s Day! :D

Vishesh — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 12:15:00 +0000

It’s Valentine’s Day!Or is about to come pretty soon anyways… I know nobody reads my blog, but I made something special for the occasion. ;D
Don’t ask, for whom, cause it ain’t for anybody in particular. I was just getting super-fed up of all the red hearts the people were putting up on their blogs and sites. Especially the abundant quantity of design blogs I’ve been through, in the last few days, has not only humbled me about my [super] poor skills in Photoshop, but has also frustrated me about the numerous brushes, textures, and people have been putting up, all gushing with a repulsive redness in them. So here’s a piece of my heart… ;P

Red’s cliched and so is the arrow! So here’s the black heart with the new-age lighting.
Of course, it’ll be a way too huge effort to make the stupid kid who irresponsibly throws this stuff at not-so-prepared-for-it guys and gals. But I’ll be trying. Any suggestions on how to make the hole through which that lightning’s passing, better, are more than welcome – they’re needed! . So your comments, suggestions, please.

P.S: For all the visually retarded viewers of mine, which includes, if any at all, a pending notice, that I have set up a Feedburner E-mail subscription Form to the right, and also an RSS feed button “handcrafted” by me, using a by-defined, very cool, AI image from the Feedicons Devkit.

Inarticulate-ness

Vishesh — Sat, 07 Feb 2009 16:45:36 +0000

I hate myself. For numerous reasons, and at extremely varying times [and with very varying degrees, as well] but on of the main reasons is my “writer’s block” (or more appropriately – my inarticualte-ness) which seems to be perpetual; I have about 4 posts from months before rotting in my drafts box, and all I have managed to do, is now properly shift to WordPress to try and post sensible stuff. Sensible for a blog=More literary stuff.

I really don’t want a design blog (which you might think my blog is…). Okay, designing is fine for frivolous time-waste but it’s definitely not a really cool [or vishesh] technique to make a living [or even much of time-pass]. The point is that I’m terrible at writing down my ideas. I believe I can say them out much better, since they’re such fleeting thoughts and insights, that I just can’t hold them for long enough to be able to write it all down. That’s also visible in the length of the sentences I write. And also, in my terrible Section-B English Paper marks. So, as long as I manage to post now and then, I shall focus more on writing stuff, than designing and uploading. Hope nobody minds… Have a good day [or whatever time you're in] and wish me luck for the Bored [mispelling inspired from the luminar] Exams, due in three weeks for me. :S

Riding on the waves!!

Wave: Part I. Not really much of a wave.

Wave Part II – This is not connected to the previous one. Although the following ones are all out from this.

Wave Part III: Some Inherent Turbulences .

And Wave Part IV: All ready to shimmer and fall back.
So, how’d you like the series? Want a continuation?

A Redevelopment

I had actually made the thing in the “Happy New Year” post, on Photoshop 7. It’s amazing how when you’re at it, and you’re not such an expert after all, the device at hand never seems to matter! Well, I’d actually something that screamed my name out way more than just the V. If anybody wants to know how I made it though, I’d definitely like to put up a cursory “tut”. . This is what I’d originally made. (Actually, I’d made it on my sister’s computer and the real original thing had her name on it.)
Well, here goes…

Happy New Year!

I know you’d say I’m late. Well, I know I am. So there’s no point telling me.
Well, I’ve been around, here and there – and visibly, mostly there. Vain attempts to stick around here for any substantial time and manage to make a post have been spoilt, again as would be visible. So there’s a lot to say.

I’m sad that the single post I made having 5 pieces of art received lesser comments than other single-art posts. Well, I believe there can be too much of a good thing (or perhaps, ugly things heh:) ), in one go.
A L o t ta people took a review of the year that had passed by. Actually even more did, but these were three which I cared to read. I thought that it was pretty silly to care about what had happened. So I took to making a list. Not a list of resolutions. Ohh, resolutions are such a cilched word, Id never in a lifetime use them. And since the list is so impossible, I’d only dream about resolving to do them all. Here goes, in this year I plan to learn the following things:

Maya
Flash [with actionscript]
better Ps
better Ai
C++ programming
heuristics (?!)
make a [fractal-generating] software****
Mathematica
CSS
php
XML

I know its impossible to the point of frivolity, but it’s stupid if I don’t try at all, isn’t it?

3. I have been making some more art, and putting many more widgets in the sidebar. Some might feel irritated – if you do, don’t tell me cause I’m not gonna change. Just kidding. Comment for whatever you like, I luuurrrvvv comments. Although I very irresponsibly forget to reply to many, so forgive me, if I ahve ne that to you. and keep commenting.

4. Finally my art-of-the-post. I’ve learnt more of filters, and it’s really fun. Even GIMP filters are real fun. One of them’s actually a fractal-generation filter, and I just love the starburst one. It’s beautiful. This thing’s psd is 63 MB heavy, so don’t even dream of asking me for it, if you can’t meet me personally with a storage device. And it’s even my new desktop wallpaper. Perhaps, you could’ve guessed that seeing the resolution. Yeah – I have a 19-inch monitor. Not news to most, though…

So, adieu for the time-being. Also, I’ll might soon shift to WordPress, so be ready for it… Keep reading, commenting, and hating me .X-D

Happy New Year!

cool ain’t it?

and, a belated Merry Christmas, winter solstice (:D I love this), and a happy new year in advance. Should be coming up with some art related to that pretty soon… or hopefully so. :S
