    It was a joke. ;)

    I'm not quite sure if I should take that as an insult to my sanity, or a compliment to my creativity.

    I'll take the former. I like the Idea of people commenting my genius.

    And that is precisely the point. It has its uses – you just have to be creative enough to find them. :)

    It's the one I use for Reclaimer that gives the screenshots that 'grainy' look. There isn't really an equivalent in GIMP, unfortunately.

        Gimp is like a free photoshop but lacking in the feature department.

    So I suppose that nothing abot the sickly white glow makes you wan't to avert your eyes from the monitor.

    No I'm kidding, but from a gameplay perspective, It adds nothing to the experiance but the feeling of having been drunk then smashing your brains out with a lemon.

      Well, the filters aren't for gameplay so much as they're for machinima (and comics). Bungie basically gave us creative types some additional tools for producing Halo-based media.

        But they do add an air to the enviornment which can in turn play on peoples emotions. Their uses aren't only for photography and machinima. Bungie basically gave us creative typed some additional tools for manipulating our enviornment as well as the players emotions.

        I agree with you though, they do play a more practical role in external media but the contrast decreasing gloomy with the greyscalling colorblind, it makes the opposite side of the map harder to see but not impossible obscuring view much like the hill on valhalla and it makes players act more catious and twich more wishing they had a mouse instead of a joystick.

    If I ever need to extensivly make pictures like yourself, I'll be sure to purchase photoshop. Until then, gimp works fine for Source Mod textures.

    Unfortunatly.

    Well, sure, but then again, I've never suggested that anyone has to buy Photoshop. :)

    But photoshop is the best in the Industry at the moment and the more pricy versions come with loads of helpful extras.

    Plus I really like the Export for web options automatically converting the colors to web safe ones. In gimp you need to be more careful with gradients so this doesn't happen.

    But outside of textures, i have no real use for a picture editing program so I currently use gimp.

    Jim is this the last Reclaimer because this Wensdays wasn't what I expected. I think its just because you've done 172 comics like this in Halo.:)

      Yep, I'm done. Time to change formats completely.

    Wednsday was an april fools joke, just like every other halo related site is doing.

    Did you read B.U.N.G.L.E. yet. That was funny.

    you did realise i know what GIMP is, i have used many times and do believe it's just too easy compared to photoshop, there's no challenge and no exploration to be done. I like software that requires you to work to your best ability, like Flash and photoshop.

    It seems i am hated here. Well, i'll retire from commenting.
    Seems to be the best solution.

      Would it help if I told you that I don't hate you…

      too much

    I think it was just confusing because of how much of a reach was required to make that particular punchline. :)
