Crying in Code

http://www.zaccohn.com/pics/photoshopped/tearcode.jpg

Just a quick photoshop to go along with another project thing I was working on. What do you think? Originally I was going to make only the teardrop with code (random characters) infront of it, but it wasn't profound enough.

[edit- IT'S DONE! Final picture at the bottom.]

I've wasted 5 minutes trying to find "FGR" from that text. I just found "FG". [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

Hmm. Which do you think either of these are better?

The first one (top of the screen)

2nd: http://www.zaccohn.com/pics/photoshopped/tearcode1.jpg

Or 3rd: http://www.zaccohn.com/pics/photoshopped/tearcode2.jpg

By the way... FastGamerr- Look in the top left corner of the code in the pic number 2...

the 3rd, if you could bend the code to match the contour of the eye..it'd look much better. otherwise without that, the 1st one
2004-06-13, 8:12 AM #10
Make the code fade towards the right of the image, maybe?
2004-06-13, 8:13 AM #11
I like your most recent one the most. I think you should have the code in the background quite a bit more faded, and as the_mute said, have the text look distorted from the liquid.

Last one. It sort of gives the impression of a man struggling against an incomprehensible world of technology.

Or the third one, it's the most subtle.

3rd, or most recent ..

Eh, the tear looks kinda .. I dunno, iffy =/ The way the code and the tear are on the face, it looks kinda out of place .. just my opinion, though

And a "Crying in code [happydud//date.04]" or something in cool glowy feathery letters at the bottom would be cool [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

But the idea is brilliant .. I love it [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif] The picture and everything is brilliant too .. just that little tear thing I noted above.

Props.

The distorted tear is better, but should be distorted more. Google for images of water drops or something. Usually the distortion increases towards the edges, and sometimes the images is flipped. Also maybe apply a similar distortion to the eyes, like distort it more as it goes to the right side of the eye (the furthest from the camera).

The tear looks kind of... :-/
I like the first one better, but the teardrop doesn't just do random distortions-it acts like a lens, so it changes the image in a predictable way.

Have you ever been philosophical? It's pretty fun.

The teardrop has too much of a yellow color around the edges IMO

Updated the last two pictures again. I tried to make the tear more rounded and the text better. 2nd one I have the tear lower, and I'm experimenting with different tear 'streaks,' although I don't like how it turned out. Might try it again.

And I added a signature. Higher resolution versions are availible upon request.
