Poppin' Champagne!
New Years Extravaganza Daily Chit-ChatPopping champagne, lighting up the fireworks, making toasts, and counting the remaining minutes left of 2010 going into the new year of 2011 is something we're all looking forward to. Luckily, the wait is almost over, and the new year is quickly approaching us. Gather up with your fellow members as we look back upon this year together, and look ahead to see what may be in store for us in the new year. Here, you are free to chit chat with other members who are joining in on the New Years Extravaganza events. Feel free to count down the remaining time we have left, all you have planned for the start of the new decade, the on-going events we have up, and so much more. Just remember to stay on topic, be respectful, have fun, and give me your cookies. :] |
Ah, the new year. :) I have primarily one resolution: to get a job. :/
Everything else stems from that, so...XD |
Hohoho~
About three more days to go! Can't wait for the rest of the events to pop up! XD |
Oh Yay it is up!
I don't know what I am doing for new year :/ Might go over to a friends place to celebrate. |
I couldve been the 1st post, but idc :P
YOU SHALL NOT GET MY COOKIES. Hopefully in 2011 ill do this Get a job (yeah right..) a Gf (maybe..) Drive! (If i can get the confidence..) Ill prob do nothing for new years |
New Years Resolution: IDK
|
I'm not a big resolution guy, I'm oblivious how the concept even began, to be honest.
|
New Year resolutions are easy to make, but hard to follow. xD
I usually give up on them within a week or so. XD |
I can;t afford to give up on mine. XD
|
I hate the person who came up with the idea of New Year resolutions. :P
JK. They should be banned! >D |
I'm looking forward to actually participating in the graphics competition this time round, rather than judging or hosting.
|
GET A JOB!! But then again I CBF'd getting a job with so many cool games coming out, and my School Certificate next year (last one EVER! I was unlucky enough to be the last year to do it). Study more! that could be a resolution for me. Get a job half way through next year maybe, and study hard in the first half of the year.
|
Well, I never really make any resolutions. But I think I'll try to make one this time around: Try to get the first rank in my class. I'll try my best but the chances are quite slim. XD;
Edit: Gav participating? Lol, our 'little' chances of standing a chance just vanished. XD; |

I usually watch the ball drop with my family. We all sit in the living room and eat snacks. My New Years Resolution: To lose weight and I won't give up on it this year. Just have to stay away from my one weakness........Cheesecake! |
My new year resolution should be to be less rude? :'(
Bah.. IDK. XD;; |
I wrote my new years resolution in a thread!
...but really, to be happy in the new year is important. XD |
Quote:
|
I'll try to participate in the Graphics event...
...And that would be only if I find I sudden boost of confidence from somewhere. XD;; |
Woot first page?
I've never been good with New Years resolutions. It'll probably be the same thing all Engineers claim: "Be more organized", and like it happens with all Engineers, that doesn't happen XD |
You should, people on PC seem to afraid to show their graphics around here. Which is silly.

Nica. As emblem hungry as ever. It won't be long till you beat Gav at emblems. And if that is the case, participate in our map-off contest! We have emblems for participants as well. :P |
Seriously, all you graphics people, pro or not, get an entry in. A graphic does not need to be perfectly executed to win, if the concept and everything is original and intriguing, that is all a factor in the judging process.

I've been beaten plenty of times when it comes to graphics, by people less experienced than me too. Besides, it's all in the manner of fun, you'd never know how much the judges like your pieces! |

Lol, I'm in a slump too. Hope my dad somehow allows me to sit on Windows or I won't even get to participate. XD;
And as for the map off, it requires mapping in advance map, right? I'll try to give it a shot. Then again, if my dad lets me sit on Windows.... |
Quote:
(Somewhat?) I'll go for easy emblems! :D |
Advance map, paint, photoshop, RMXP anything XD
I'll be entering the mapping contest too. My last map took me a week though. It was 1400x1400px for a Game Development mapping contest. |
Maybe I'll try the map off this time...Hmmmm....we'll see. ;P
|
Quote:
|
I'll make a craptastic map just for the emblem. jk. I'll try my best. Although I've only used Advance Map once or twice. And I'm not really sure how to make maps in the other programs. ;;
Perhaps I can participate in the mapping thing even if I don't get to sit on windows by using GIMP. Then again, I'm kinda alien when it comes to GIMP. >( Off-topic; Oh and merv, Bharat has agreed to giving you his theme. ;P |
2 days,17 hour,35 minutes left till the new year from when i post XD
anyways i was thinking to make a new game for pokemon from gamemaker 8(started it but i was tooo lazy so it ended) but with new year i might get new confidence and maybe new gen(gen 6) |
Boo guys! Don't enter maps you've made earlier! Make something new! Its the New Year! And also, we have a theme this time, so you can't post random stuff. XD
|
Wow Kaori's, wolflare's and Luke's black tie thread are so well made and attractive! I wanted to participate in them all just because of the front page, buuut I can't sing and have no ev'd pokemon on me :(
|
Ah, 2011. I hope this will be a perfect year. Lol and yet, I can't wait to celebrate, too.
Busy year once again and yet going to have to look for a job. I also do hope 2011 will be a fantastic year, had a rough 2010. O_e |
@King Gumball
>O I've made some smexy CSS for the Map-Off too! You bet its damn attractive! XD I soooo want Destiny Demon to come and post the thread. ;_; |
Quote:
...even if it's not related. XD |
Yeah not going to enter mapping just for the emblem.
I've never tried or considered mapping (although I once took a stab at spriting) and I reckon having an emblem for it would be ew considering I've never actually done it before. |
Quote:
Lol, you should still give it a shot. Learning new things ain't really all that bad of a thing, moments. I'm a first timer too. If I find the emblem 'eww'ish or something, I'd decline it even after participating. You can do the same. XD; |
I might enter the mapping contest, although I'm terrible at changing tiles so plain ol' FR graphics for me ^.^
|
Yes, all of you should enter the mapping contest! It shall be amazing! ^_^
|
Quote:
|
This will certainly be awesome, can't wait! :3 I hope lots of members attend our Winter Skype Festival.
|
Quote:
Oh wait, I'm meant to be advertising my new years event. Yeah everyone go participate in the new years photography event. :D |
I'll surely attend the Skype Event.
Honestly, its the only event I'm waiting to begin atm. (Apart from our Map-Off, obv.) |
I'd do photography too. Only if I manage to get some decent pictures. Hope there won't be any hard theme. o3o;
Skype would've been interesting. But gaah, that'll come next year. Won't really go for it this time. Although the emblems for it last time were totally smexy. o3o; |
Quote:
|
Yay~ It has started~
I hope I get alot of entries in my event~ |
Quote:
|
Just looking at this forum... I think I might join in this year.
New years resolutions? I have a TON. Primarily to get a job and transfer to a good college. |
Quote:
|
Quote:
On that note, I just took an amazing photo of a frog~ |
Sprite editing? I might enter that too. :)
|
Quote:
Ohh so you can take a photo of anything? Woo! I should have taken a picture of that new born Blue Tongue in my yard this after noon >.> |
Quote:
Buttt, I was saying I took that photo in general. XD |
Quote:
|
I haven't taken any photo lately. Stopped taking photographs after the first PoTW, actually. XD; And yeah, can't wait to see the themes. I really need to know them.
Speaking of photos, I think I might actually take a nice picture of the area surrounding my house. From the terrace. Sure it'll look nice. <3 |
I might just enter the photography contest, cause Nica is hosting it. :3333333 I'll see to that after I look at the categories. n_n
|
The themes are pretty easy! Afaik. XD
Yay Mervyn :D Andddd yes Deroio, take that photo! Take lots of photos. :3 You can't forget to take photos. ;; |
Quote:
Well, I am a forgetful guy, after all. XD; Not to forget 'lazy' too. o3o; |
I might enter the photography contest too~
But my photography skills suck... |
Lol, I'm an amateur at photography too. Somehow managed to grab the second prize last time. It doesn't really matter. XD; All we have to do is have fun. These events are meant for us to have some fun anyway. XD;
|
I'm not very good at photography either. I wonder whether I'll do fine. XD;;
|
You can always improve your photography skills :3
If you want to improve you can look at Fabio's tutorial! |
Wait, Fabio made a tut? I wasn't really aware. Might as well take a look. <3
|
Bah, I'm too lazy to read tutorials anyway; especially technical tutorials. XP
|
I might either steal my mums camera or use my laptop which has no zoom XD I might take a pic of a tree or something that doesn't need that much skill. I have a really cool Christmas Bush in my yard ^.^ That could work.
OMG Forever I have almost finished my drawing for your Unova event! I just need to colour it. |
I'll look into the tutorial
That is, if I can find it |
Quote:
Good luck to everyone who is going to be snapping away~! |
I'd seriously advise anybody going for the photography event to read Fabio's tutorial. It is a blast. Seriously, it helps a lot.
And it is located in 'Graphics and Photography' under the name 'The way of the photographer'. ;] |
Quote:
Oh cool, I am reading it now XD |
I'll read it later
/doesn't fell like reading thing anything right now //to busy playing Plants vs. Zombies |
Tis a shame my new camera doesn't come till late next month but I'm excited to see the results of the Photography contest this time round, It's always a good turn out with the first entries. It'll be interesting since Fabio is finally a Judge.
|
Well, we had to have him host and judge the photography contest; or else no one else would win. ;_;
|
Well yeah, you're kinda right there, merv. XD; But still, I wonder if I'll even make it past the first round...he surely might be a strict judge.
|
Cool stuff. I've already decided to participate in the Map-off and sprite edit contests, but I guess I'll also get a look everywhere, for a sudden change of plans might occur. ;D
|
Quote:
|
I'm just hoping that people would join the writing contest. :D
I've decided on joining contests all around, too! :D |
Quote:
|
well hi guys, 3 days to go i(ish)
|
So the event has finally started. I'm excited to join my first event which would be the AMV contest once it's up.
|
I may enter the singing contest.
I love singing! |
I'm going to see how many contests I can enter this time, hardly really gone out of the organizing part XD
|
I'm going to probably join two events instead of one. It might be the graphics event.
|
I don't enter events and competitions very often... I just might this time though :3
|
Mapping Contest for me ^^ Might enter the AMV contest if I get the time to edit something epic.
|
How are you all this year/next year? I'm just wondering if anyone would like to do ISketch again on a new year theme? :)
|
There's still loads of events to come. Just the long wait for approval :P iSketch I believe is one of them.
|
It's cool that Pokécommunity put a lot of effort into the holidays ^^ Makes the forums feel nice and friendly :3
|
Sorry for the delay in posting my contests. It is due to different time zones, so once they are allowed by Hiiro and Nick! We are set to go =D
|
Stupid timezones... all they've done is cause trouble. :( GMT for the win!
|
huh
I really hate timezones. >_> They are responsible for all the delays taking place. >( |
Why do we even have timezones? everyone know that their time is best.
|
What I wanna know is why there's still a Daylight Savings Time. I mean, most of the world doesn't follow it, so why do most of the states and whoever else do?
|
Well, i've already a job, and i drive, so my resolution will be lose weight and make it to the leadership of my company, i'm tired of being a simple engineer...
|
Ooh, it's that time again... heh heh... heh. c:
|
Well, I have finally decided on a resolution for the year~
|
I was wondering when this was going to go to the public. :D
I don't know anything about my new years resolutions. Maybe get a job or something. :/ All I know is on Friday it's going to be 43 degrees here which for you people who don't understand celsius, that's very hot. Good thing I have my pool. :) |
Meh... New Years Resolution.... catch 'em all or lose weight.... hmmm....
^ | Talking randomly to myself. LOL. |
| All times are GMT -8. The time now is 12:10 PM. |
