Graphic Request Thread


Question

Please pin this and post all requests graphic related here - be it internet banners, avatars, sigs - you name it, just post them here and i, or the helpful neowin grpahics team will hopefully get to it... :D

Thread title edited, this is not an "offcial" request thread and not the only one, people may still make request threads, otherwise they would get buried in here. Thanks for understanding

sniperx did u make the water on  ur sig and if so how did u do it? cos its sweet

Without the time at the moment to do a tutorial, create a layer, fill with any colour. (Best using a gradient of several shades of blue.)

Use the Distort/Twirl tool filter at maximum setting. (You will, most likely, have to apply the filter a good three or four times, depending on the final effect wanted.

Once it starts to look very rippled, use the Edit/Transform/Perspective tool to drag the bottom corners outwards. (This will alter the perspective to make it appear 'flat'.)

Once you've got that, you'll need to play with the other Filter/Distort tools Wave, Zigzag, etc. To customize the effect. Without doing it all again, (which I will) I can't quite remember what I did. But the above will certainly get you going.

EDIT: Just remembered apply the gaussian blur (a lower end value I seem to remember) after the twirling.

Sniperx, i'm sick of your constant whining. jmann isn't being patronising whatsoever, he's just glad to see that other people are helping with the making of graphics too. he has recently been the major contributor to this thread, and, in my opinion, contributes a lot more than you do. he shouldn't need to check through everyone's profile just to see how old they are and then think whether what he is saying will offend anyone, you're just being ageist there. why should you, at 34, feel more patronised than anyone else? does being 34 give you some sort of god given right to feel patronised? i don't think so. i apologise if you think i'm being harsh, or if you think i'm patronising you or whatever, but that's just how i feel.

Grrr. You're doing it again. Patronising.

This isn't a factory where people place orders and we all churn out graphics under your guidance. Well, I certainly don't anyway. (I defend nothing like I defend my individuality.)

Now there may well be some historic moment here which I missed, being a relative newcomer and all that, but please, I for one can do without the patronising pat on the head unless it is absolutely required for some bizarre reason.

I 'try' to consider people's ages here when posting. I would ask that you perhaps consider the same thing. I'm 34 for Christ sake! lol

Grr, back to you! :laugh:

Why do you being 34 make yourself almighty and why do you like looking at peoples ages? Are you wierd or something?

Look man, I relise that post was Patronising and I didn't really know to be honest that I had written that post and it had been taken by you in that 'context'. Really. Yeah I am only 16, but who cares how old people are. Its what they do that counts I believe. Over the past months I have tried you provide lots of people with graphics and a service to you all but now, unfortunately due to other restrictions, I am having to leave Neowin, I might be able to see everyones work and compliment where nessecary as everyone working do just provide the most excellent Graphics and if you all work as a team you could create things which the mind could never do. People, you have done an excellent job and I have made lots of new friends and I will still speak to you in points where I feel right. Mark03 and Wing, I would like you to be the 'replace' of me, I know once again SniperX will have a go at me for that comment, but sorry mate, I don't give a cr** about you, and what you say. Sorry. :whistle: Well people, good luck for the future and enjoy yourselves and I hope that the people who request here on this thread appreciate the hard work and effort everyone puts in towards this thread. Good Luck for the future everyone.

Thanks for being so great everyone and speak to you all soon,

JMann :D

I'm trying not to disappoint but, unlike some, it seems, I'm unable to view logging on, providing a graphic or two and making someone's life perhaps a tad easier, as any form of contest. I hate to drag age into it again but I'm just a tad too old for that.

If you don't like my blunt tone then that's something I'll live with. I didn't come here to make friends, but to create graphics for those unable to and to offer assistance where possible. No thanks, no praise, just something I enjoy doing.

It seems to me that you are quite happy to accept my short and methodical personality when it comes to me banging out a tutorial or similar without any procrastination, but no so keen when it comes to me stating my view. Again, I will live with that too. Now by all means, if I have broken any rules or just **** you off, report me and I'll accept whatever comes of it. If not then we must assume that I have merely stated my dislike for being patronised, for whatever reason and you don't like my view. If the latter is the case then you are as guilty as I in your rebuttals. So please, move on. This is not a contest that I will run in.

I hope that clarifies things.

Not at all. But it does give me the confidence to say when I do without fear of peer-pressure, competition, or losing 'friends'.
i apologise if you think i'm being harsh, or if you think i'm patronising you or whatever, but that's just how i feel.

No apology needed. As I see it you have just done no more than I myself did. You stated how you feel about something.

    • When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!
    • Same, never saw it on Android or iOS. Guess only some people got it *shrugs*
    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
