Me too.
I know Bortwein does it for food or free, but will he teach?

Teach? What do you want to know? Pixels? or Photoshop?

Here is a pretty basic but good Pixel tutorial:

At the link above I have created a few new smilies for the site. They are songfight related.

Here are a few examples:

any way you could zip up those pics for me? are they named like the ones in the zips i put up for you?

if you ever feel inspired to make some really weird songfight-only graphics for the board, that would be cool. the new folder icons and such that you made are really great; it would be neat to have a set that are kind of bizarre.

I'll zip up what I have done so far. They are all named to match what they would replace on the boards currently. I can work on some more "bizarre" ones for the folders and stuff.

As for the songfight-only graphics... I thought I did a good job of making the smilies be songfight related... the center row of smilies I have provided are all based on cover art items. i.e. Space Cadet, Bad Attraction, Cancer, etc etc...

but I'll keep making more... I didn't get all the different smilie styles created that you sent me.

that's cool man, thanks. don't be afraid to let your "House In My Head" freak flag fly. no reason the sfbb can't be the wildest, funnest-lookin' msg bd on the block.

jb: I think I ended up sending it to your songblog email at your websites link to email. I'll continue to make more and I'll let you know when I have another groupin to send you.
