I digitally colored a little cropping of some of my art drawn in a notebook randomly.

EDIT: How the HECK do I post freaking images here?! D:BGLW

Testing....

Ok it works. Just highlate the picture, right click, select copy, and then make a message and choose paste from the right click menu.

Oh and I like the image btw.

Swordmaster's right. Embedding images is a little different here on GameSpot. I quite like how easy it is though. The only two sites on the net I know of that use this method are GameSpot and Multiply.

Nice, BGLW. Your drawing actually looks pretty good for a start. Nice to show your creativity. 8)

Seems like there is a heart in the thought bubble of Spyor. What is that referencing to?

It ain't a thought-bubble. ;) A thought-bubble would be more wavey and like a cloud, it's a speech-bubble. :P But I suppose since Spyro's the only one in the pic, it could be seen as a thought. Maybe he's thinking about Cynder?

Eh, I guess so, Alec. Your right, I only called it a thought bubble because it had no words, but I guess it can be both. :P

In the original full Image, there's text on the page that says "who could hate a lil' crocodile puppy like me?"..Guess that's why I drew a random heart-speech-bubble. Who knows, he could be thinking about Cynder too, most likely :P

I'll just do something like the Ripto's Rage cover again. I'm only going to make it when I have time, though. :\

You have to keep pressing Preview until it stops saying it. Sometimes Hyperlinks are still enabled when you paste it and disabling them helps.

Jesus, that's a good drawing. Where did my art skills go wrong :(

From your drawing, I now know why Polo (ReviewKing) would want Spyro as a pet. He reminds me of a dog. :lol:

But that's a great drawing nonetheless. There's no way I could draw something like that unless I committed to lots of practice...

BGLW

That works sometimes, but that's not the best way to post images. Here's a short Drago tutorial on how to post images here.


1) First use Photobucket or Imageshack to upload your images to. (You already have this step done, but this is for anyone else needing help.)

2) When posting an image click this () button to bring up the pop-up box.

3) Copy the link from Photobucket/Imageshack labeled "Direct Link" into the "Image URL" box on GameSpot.

4) Your image should appear even before you submit the post.


Where did my art skills go wrong :(

Iceferno

You still have art skills. They're just in the form of music now. ;)

A little piece of art I edited on Paint .NET; I figured I'd post it here instead of wasting forum room. So here it is-- It's got a quote on it from Animal I Have Become by three days grace and it almost PERFECTLY fits my Spyro fan character, Volt. It's got her two sides (dark/light) in their dragon generator counterpart versions in front of a little panel of a comic I'm writing based off part of the LOS Series. :) And yes, that ridiculous looking and crappily drawn/colored dragon in the panel is Volt. :lol: (YAY I FIGURED OUT HOW TO POST IMAGES! Thanks Drago! :D)

(This is what Volt looks like in her "Real form" (edit: this is a bit outdated--she now has a replacement eye thanks to a clumsy inhabitant of a realm she used to live in.))EDIT: Making image into a link for page to be... less stuffed up lol

PLUS, A LITTLE BONUS PICCY!

Everyone, we have ourselves an artist. :D

Those are some good pictures, BGLW, and I like what you did with your sig.

YAY I FIGURED OUT HOW TO POST IMAGES! Thanks Drago! :D

BGLW

You're welcome and glad it helped. ;)

BGLW

You don't have to worry about double posting sometimes. It's fine by us. ;)

Anyway, that's another great image, and it makes a good choice for an avatar on these forums with a little resizing, which I can do. Also, I can animate the image better for you so it won't have that thick outline. If you want, post the links to the two original images you used, and how you want the first image to transition into the next one.

I can link you to the two frames reguarding the animation;

Dark Volt

Volt

Just a bright flash transition would do (If you do it; sorry if this is a waste of your time)

..Most places I go to have arule against double posting, so I was unsure. Thanks for clearing that up...phew :lol:

Dakuu

I agree, but there's a few situations where it would make sense to post multiple times in a row.

For example, if someone posts a long guide, then you'll usually see more than one message by the topic creator because there's a limit to the number of characters in our posts. Another example would be if an update to whatever was last posted came up, then you could double-post to bring the topic back up to let everyone know of the updated message and information.

I finished editing the image's you wanted, BGLW. Sorry that took so long, and yes, I'm slow at this. There was this annoying shadow that caused that annoying black outline on the one you made earlier. Let me know if there's something more I can do to make them better, or if you need anything else.

Anyway, here they are:
