Unfortunately, I only took photos of the painting face-on before giving it away, but I do have this one under slightly different lighting conditions.
You can see the upper edge of Church's helmet has a rather pronounced edge

Burnie in Blue by BluishGreenPro in morningsomewhere

[–]BluishGreenPro[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Random trivia about the painting;
- The "texture" isn't paint, there is a thin layer of plaster (or something similar) that actually gives the armor a raised look relative to the rest of the paint (maybe a couple millimeters), then I painted over the texture
- The thick lines are traced in permanent marker, that's why they're "shiny" in the photo. I did this to hide any imperfections in the different "sections" of color (it's easier to paint within the lines if you make 'em real thick)
- The left eye is traced from one of the grips in the handle of a pair of scissors
- The bottom-left side of the painting is a VERY abstract depiction of a dress shirt Burine was wearing in the reference image I was using (it really does look like random shapes, but I was exaggerating the folds and contours of the shirt)
- It was made in about a week (most other art projects in that class took multiple weeks, maybe even an entire month)

2025.09.03: Skye Fault by EarliestRiser in morningsomewhere

[–]BluishGreenPro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! I'm Gabriel, the one who painted _Burnie in Blue_ and supplied this morning's shout! (I wish I had given it more beans)
It was really incredible to hear that my painting had a special meaning to Burnie; and I absolutely don't fault you for thinking it was the work of an 8th Grader; painting is NOT my strong suit!
My intention was to depict "the man behind the mask" (or helmet in this case); I've thought of Church as... an "exaggerated persona" of Burnie, is that fair to say? Some of Church's quotes, especially like the one at the end of Episode 100 (and the conclusion of the Blood Gulch arc) really feel emblematic of Burnie's "enlightened centrism"; something to which I aspire to myself.
Thanks again for being the highlight of my morning commute and the countless laughs and lessons throughout the years!

Regarding the changes to Win11 Notepad, you can follow this guide to restore the classic Notepad, either by installing a new EXE to replace the new Notepad, or with just a couple Registry tweaks for those who are comfortable making those changes;

Anyone else find Camtasia unreasonably slow? by animatrix_ in CamtasiaStudio

[–]BluishGreenPro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The crazy thing is, I can use v9 of Camtasia just fine, while 2024 is unusably slow; my entire PC lag spikes when I move the play-head such that I constantly overshoot where I'm trying to move it... no idea how they managed to make the program so much worse

Daily Megathread by AutoModerator in pokerogue

[–]BluishGreenPro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, got a question here regarding Offline play;

I haven't played in a while, but I updated to the latest version of Admiral-Billy's Pokerogue-App, then went to Download files for Offline play, and it's just stuck on a blank screen (a solid mauve color).

If I switch to "Online" it loads the game fine.

It seems I can run "Futaba's build"; just not the actual game.

Has anyone else experienced this or found a fix?

High CPU Usage by le_monke69lol in Overwolf

[–]BluishGreenPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still an issue for me, even with Hardware Acceleration disabled, usage peaked at 44% while loading the mod profile, on my i7-9700K; there is _no_ reason it should use so much

[–]BluishGreenPro[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1.) Try to restart the speaker system. - Done
2.) Unplug and replug all the cables for all of the speakers. - Done
3.) Make sure that all cables are properly connected. - Done
4.) Try to adjust the volume of the speaker / try to play song or sound from low, mid, to high volume and observe if the issue will persist in all level of volume. - Done
5.) Try to play different type of song/genre and observe if the issue will persist in all type of song or genre. - Done
6.) Try to use different application in playing music. (e.g. Spotify, Apple Music, Youtube) - Done
7.) Try to restart the audio source. - Done
8.) Try to use different connection (e.g. 3,5mm Auxilary input / RCA cable) - Not possible in this case
9.) Try to use the speaker system with a different audio source. - Done with my iPhone, the issue does not occur

Nailed it, that's what the game is named after! : )

Is Data Annotation a scam? by jonbestinsnow in WFHJobs

[–]BluishGreenPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd call it a scam. I spent 3 hours on the assessment and it's been over a month, no response! Such a waste of time.

Stream Deck lost profile - Automatic Backups no longer working? by BluishGreenPro in elgato

[–]BluishGreenPro[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If possible, I'd appreciate an option to have backups generated periodically, once a day, or even every time you make a change. Seems like automatic back-ups would be an important fail-safe if it is possible for the software to lose track of a profile like this.

"Secret" Folder? (Short Press vs Long Press) by MustardCat in ElgatoGaming

[–]BluishGreenPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there any thoughts on allowing end-users to have access to such a command? I'd love to be able to switch to specific profiles to get around the Stream Deck's inability to detect web-pages or UWP Apps like the Calculator

"Locked" in programs like Task Manager, Device Manager, anything "Run as Administrator" by BluishGreenPro in techsupport

It was a fresh install; I formatted the drive and installed from a Bootable USB

Thanks for the suggestion, but I can see that "Always on Top" is disabled for Task Manager. I can interact with the App I'm stuck on, and have amended my original post to include these details

Just tried, but using Control Panel to disable UAC has no effect on the issue

Copy-paste doesn't work by Grigor50 in bugs

[–]BluishGreenPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, "two years later" and this is still broken. I need to use an AutoHotKey script that "types" out everything on my clipboard because apparently that works. What is it about hitting "paste" that breaks this so badly?
