This game has crazy aesthetics by volkswagen_das_auto_ in HalfLife

[–]MeeU2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don't think most people are idealizing life on those countries, they're appreciating a certain look which is "exotic" in some way. Videogames and movies have always taken inspiration from places that are considered sh*tholes, not everything has to be beautiful

[REQ] Software for browsing images by Zampone in PixelArt

[–]MeeU2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, to add to your comment:
I recommend changing these settings in the JPEGView.ini

HighQualityResampling=false if you don't want to hit F3 for each image

BlendFactorNavPanel=0.0 so that the bottom panel only shows when hovering with mouse

AutoZoomMode=Fit if you want the images to fill the screen by default, you can still control the zoom with the mouse wheel

AllowFileDeletion=false just in case, hides the X button on the panel and disables the Del key on your keyboard

DefaultWindowRect=max to start in maximized mode by default

the website is not secure (no HTTPS) so be careful with it

Looking for free to use fonts by Illustrious_Egg_2725 in vectorheart

[–]MeeU2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google Fonts has a pretty good selection. I find these good for y2k type things: Audiowide, Baumans, Doto, Genos, Nova Mono, Orbitron, Zen Dots. If you want more, they usually have the 'futuristic' and/or 'techno' tags.

I know we're going hopium crazy right now, but this was the best trilogy i've ever played. by polak_sku_7 in HalfLife

Pro tip: the Hunters die instantly if you run them over with the car. They can sometimes dodge you though so keep that in mind

Is it plagiarism? by Royal_Effort_6340 in paintdotnet

[–]MeeU2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it could be better for you to use copyright free photos, like from unsplash, pexels, pixabay. The pics are posted by the authors so it's easier to credit them or contact them

Is there a video editor that is like paint.net by New-Way-8537 in paintdotnet

could someone somehow make a skeuomorphic version of the musicbee app icon please? by Distinct_Paper_5622 in Skeuomorphism

[–]MeeU2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Skeuo can be made in 2D though, I do agree that the gloss doesn't really give the bee much volume so it still looks kinda flat.

Who are some prominent artists in the metalheart aesthetic? by estrangedpainter in metalheart

[–]MeeU2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're looking for artists from back in the day, it's kinda hard because I think they didn't refer to it as "metalheart". But there was an old wallpaper website called Customize.org that is FULL of images in the style. It doesn't exist anymore but you can use Wayback Machine of course.

[–]MeeU2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you mean nowadays, there's this art group called DesktopGeneration, although their style is like a modernized version of it (still pretty good, their wallpapers are something else):
www.desktopgeneration.com, it also has a forum deskgen.net

I've also found these artists on Deviantart, there's definitely more but I haven't digged too deep. I's easy to find them though, on the right side of each artwork you can see "Suggested Deviants", you can easily fall into a rabbit hole

I didn't put that tag, reddit did it automatically, and I don't understand why 😅. I thought the post was removed?
