Because I clearly know more than you and have been working in concept art for the last 5 years. I think I have some experience. And don't act like I'm the only one who critiques people's posts because I'm not.

Shut the hell up, Nobody is trying to make art, Since when did i say i made art? Hmm? You cretinous scumbag, You think that being a caustic critic is funny and/or cool.

Well guess what? People like you are shitting on the screenshots section by flying into someone's thread like a Stuka on crack, shitting your half-assed "criticism", then leaving as the flames ignite

This is good criticism. Constructive, Fair, And truthful. Saying "ogm ur shot looks liek turd this isn't art." is NOT criticism. Roger Ebert never got anywhere by calling movies shit. He got places by calling movies out fairly, justly, and unbiased.

4. If you want visual effects, produce them outside of GMod. See Step 1. The cleaner your slate when editing a GMod shot series, the better. Teach yourself how to green-screen within GMod; without it, complex editing is trickier, and even more time-consuming.

I find this part completely untrue, green screening is (almost) useless with gmod, as if you use a real life image as the background, you'll get a large weird difference in quality where the background looks "realer" that the subject (because it is!) , and if you use another gmod screenshot as the background, you often get unrealistic or unmatching shadows.

if you can, try and do most of the editing ingame, make scenes, play with lamps and lights to get the sort of lighting you are looking for.

Oh and:
DO NOT USE ANY OF THESE: SIMPLE DOF, SHARPEN, SOBEL, MORPH, MOTION BLUR, OVERLAY, OR TOY TOWN and until you get a bit more knowledgeable, stay away from color mod aswell.

It's funny how nobody has mentioned this yet.

Buy a better computer, then come back.

Because that would be ignorant and dumb, did you know if you have a slight amount of DOF on your subject it can blur out the jaggies?

you can also get rid of them via editing aswell.

Alright then, I'll go and buy my new PC here in this magic land where nothing costs anything and everything is free.

Before you say "ogm i can afford a new pC L0L!" Well maybe SOME people don't have the same amount of money as you, So shut up. You ignorant little git.

Not really, Hey You is about Pink wondering if his wall was a good choice. IAOUTT? is about Pink questioning if anyone can hear him outside his wall.

Both songs would fit the same actually.

Buy photoshop. That's something that you can use to help yourself in many many ways.

If you look at some of my other comments on other people's posts, this is the only one I've really dug into.
