wraith89 Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Post 1000 reached. I will close this as Narwhal has requested. Expect its new reincarnation to appear anytime soon. EDIT: I closed the new one atm and re-opened this one. Guested will explain why.
Guested Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 I think you guys need to provide a reason for wanting to close this thread and start another one. Things would get pretty cluttered if everyone did this. As you can see, there is not a 1000 post limit, so that can't be the reason why. If you do have a good reason, we can open the new thread back up and lock this one.
oni link Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 i think that the new thread could be for simply requests. only requests would go in the new thread and all detail explaining and such could be done through pm's or a instant message system like msn and the archive, this thread, could be used for posting the signature for pick up. but it's narwhal's thread and my idea might not make as much sense as it does to me right now
kunaidude34 Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 for one thing maybe Narwhal has a new layout, and its just easier to make whole new one than to delete all of the old one and then type it all out again. plus, its really fun to have 1000 post parties. its just plain fun is what im trying to say.
Narwhal Posted August 25, 2009 Author Posted August 25, 2009 I don't mind keeping this thread, but it is pretty big. Biggest thread in the Creative Discussion. How about we close it at 2000 posts? Then it will be huge. ---------- Post added at 06:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:09 PM ---------- omg ive posted it like 500 times (not really) and i wanted a desktop bg with mews on it like what was done with my sig of course the bg wouldnt have my user name. (i cant believe this is the last request >.>) Umm... I can't do it right now, but when I get some time I will.
Mewtwo Ex Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 2000 posts! Amazing, that will be after a while i suppose... I had hoped that the 1000 post will be for you NarWall.
Mewkid999 Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 Umm... I can't do it right now, but when I get some time I will. Thanks!
Guested Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 You want to close it because it's big??? Why does it matter?
Toffeuy Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 @Mew_kid: Here, hope you like: Hope you don't mind about the Shiny Mew and sorry about the square there in the picture. @Narwhal: Sorry if i've taken your job...
Narwhal Posted August 26, 2009 Author Posted August 26, 2009 2000 posts! Amazing, that will be after a while i suppose... I had hoped that the 1000 post will be for you NarWall. Yeah, that would have been cool. I'll try to get post #1111. Guested: Now that you mention it. You're right. The only reason was that there were a lot of pages. But you could always use the "Search This Thread" thing. We won't close it. Can you unlock the newer one so I can delete it? Lol, I can't even remember why I wanted to close this one in the first place. Edit: Heh, most people like the shiny Jirachi userbar most. Everyone loves shiny pokemon... :rolleyes:
Illithian Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 Narwhal, I'm thinking we might want to make a new banner. Our current banner is a little... boring? Sorry I've been gone. Real life has taken its toll, with fall sports starting, school coming up, getting ready for all of that, its been pretty crazy. Still I hope I can do some art work every once in a while. Anyway, heres my reasoning why we might want to end this thread. Firstly, I'm going to say we should end this at page 100. I'd be willing to go through 100 full pages, copy the links for every piece of artwork we've made, index them, and send them to you, Narwhal, so you can put them up on the front page so people can easily browse through our archive. I'm not going to do this until the thread gets closed, and the larger it gets, the less likely I am to want to get it done. Secondly, theres no point to having an absolutely massive thread. I do like how our thread has plenty of fun discussion in it, and I think that should be continued, but we shouldn't let this thread get huge. Theres no reason to. We might as well create a new thread, to start fresh, because all the artwork of the artists has massively improved since the beginning. In any case I think it'd be better to have a new thread. Finally, we could archive this thread. I already stated in post one that I don't want to index all the artwork here if it gets to be like 200 pages, but at 100, I'd be willing to, and its not so great a task. It would look good for any requester if we have a 100 page archive. On some forums with a 20 page limit, that would be a full 5 seperate posts. =o In any case, I actually think a 100 page limit should be created and enforced, just so threads don't get too big and it allows new threads to spring up. Many people are intimidated by giant threads, but newer, smaller ones encourage people to come in and read whats been happening.

That seems like a lot of work to archive all of them. I can help if you want. I could do half of it. I think it is a good idea to not let this thread get huge, and everyone's sig skills have improved. I think we should make a new thread.
pokemonrulz Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 can some1 make a sig for me with the shiny gabite from my ava in a cave or underground or something like that... my idea is based on the sig of coolbho3000 i hope u can make something like that thanks in advance!
pokemonrulz Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 wow nice work narwhal! Thank you very much!
Illithian Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 How about ZIP the artworks and attach instead? Because that file would be absolutely ginormous and completely pointless to make people download every file instead of just see links. I agree. Do you want to make one? Sure, but not right now. When I get home I'll see if I'm inspired. That seems like a lot of work to archive all of them. I can help if you want. I could do half of it. That would be helpful. I think it is a good idea to not let this thread get huge, and everyone's sig skills have improved.I think we should make a new thread. Definitely.
Narwhal Posted August 27, 2009 Author Posted August 27, 2009 In my current setting, there are only 21 pages. I'll set it to the forum default.

Mewtwo Ex Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Narwhal you are really getting better. Great sig.
Narwhal Posted August 29, 2009 Author Posted August 29, 2009 Thanks! Made the background myself, rendered Empoleon from a trading card, did a gradient on the text, and added a white drop shadow to it.
