blah, look at my avatar and sig, tell me what you think.

Tried to imitate the Panther (OS X) brushed metal look. Tell me if you think it looks convincing enough. I think it's too dark, but I'unno.

hey,
well i think it is also too dark also I think you should have made the motion blure just a tiny bit smaller-- so you can see some details

cheesy? okay...
don't indent it, remove the white and make it blend in by making its optical 95 or something.

It's nothing a little more noise and blurring can't fix. Laughing

Hmm, I'm gonna work at this though. Smile

My whole edge on this is to write a new GUI for Turing using the Mac look.

... this is going to be fun. Shocked

how'd you make that one? any details? (ie: pixel length of blur, % of noise , if any). Wink

just simple noise effect first then i motion blured it.. i forgot how much but enough so i don't lose all the details.
I used the brightness and contrast to get the colour of the metal effect and i forgot the other thing... i think that's it lol
