Yeah...I've met DGSAFDMD on another board two days ago and she said she lurks here occasionally, but never actually posts

minkyfan · 10-28-2014, 08:11 PM

I love her, she's so nice! She taught me how to use Photoshop one day

Dacrown · 10-29-2014, 08:41 AM

Oh cool! I learned all by myself, took me 5 years, cause I'm lazy as hell

I was really intense about learning how to use it for the first six months – I even hired a tutor for like two hours, which was a mistake because obviously it was a woman in her 30s or 40s and she only knew graphic-based things – and then after that I realized that I was never going to be great at it so wasn't worth the effort

Why don't you read tutorials online?

minkyfan · 10-29-2014, 09:40 PM

I did try for a while, but I get a few steps in and get really overwhelmed. Also some of the more technical stuff involves drawing or having a really steady hand, which I don't, so I get frustrated quickly.

You need to keep going, I did get overwhelmed at first too, but it disappears with practice

Well I think everyone's a little unmotivated for that right now because the staff just changed the format of the dimensions for gifs so unless they change it back everyone's work since the site started is ruined because everything is distorted

People are really pissed off and have been complaining all day.

Dacrown · 10-30-2014, 01:51 PM

Wow, wtf? I live for lovely gifs

Any explanation on why this was done?

minkyfan · 10-31-2014, 05:30 PM

the official explanation from the staff was literally "we changed the dimensions because there was no reason not to"

everything looks really weird and they cut the borders off

Dacrown · 11-01-2014, 10:27 AM

Everyone is rioting, it's kind of hilarious

minkyfan · 11-01-2014, 06:36 PM

Yeah it seems to have calm down a bit now

Dacrown · 11-02-2014, 10:06 AM

Are they changing it back?

minkyfan · 11-02-2014, 12:08 PM

Of course not, they're way above listening to pissed off users

Dacrown · 11-03-2014, 10:56 AM

Well, I don't know if the users managed to fix it somehow, but the gifs that were uploaded today look normal to me?
