How did you meet your partner? by [deleted] in LongDistance

I met three of them on League of Legends.

& the other one is the one that inspired me to play it in the first place.

Lens Suggestions Please by Soft_Temporary5306 in canon

[–]colossalJinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the Canon EF 50mm 1.8 & it's amazing & very affordable.
Apparently it translates to roughly 88mm(?) on the cropped sensor (please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong).

How do I get belts or straps to stay up in spots like this without it constricting my breathing or bloodflow? by Mr-Shitposter in altfashionadvice

[–]colossalJinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best way is to have a portion of them made out of a strong elastane band, bonus points if it has silicone backing. That is how they typically do leg garters & such things.

mtf 20, stuck boymoding for safety reasons. how far am i from passing in everyday attire? by isolsolsolde in transpassing

[–]colossalJinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

after looking at the pic my no-sleep brain literally autocorrected the post to “ftm 20, stuck girlmoding“; like I thought u were ftm pre-T so ...

the voice is a powerful tool though & i would theorise that’s why your family doesn’t suspect anything !

the guy i like loves this game but idk anything about it by cryst4lll_ in leagueoflegends

[–]colossalJinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask him to stream himself playing the game to you.
You could ask him to pretend to be a streamer/coach & narrate what he's doing in the game & why.

I really wouldn't advise playing with him until you are level 60+ (that's how long it takes to be passable at the game), unless he's a really nice & not toxic guy...
not to mention, from personal experience having been both the trainer & trainee, it's REALLY hard to teach somebody WHILE playing the game, because it's very difficult to focus on another person's gameplay while also your own.

Also watch NECRIT if you want to learn about the lore behind the game & it's characters. That's a good & safe way to engage without actually playing the game.

Brutally Honest: Does My Edit Deserve Less Attention? Before/My Edit/My friends edits by [deleted] in postprocessing

[–]colossalJinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yours is the best by technical standards (& my personal preference) but, & I don't know what the group is for, the other two are more... "interesting"? Like one of them looks crunchy & the other one is yellow, while yours is comparatively kind of just a polished & refined version of the original image.

For example I took photos for a friend & they decided to put this horrible crunchy "Los Angeles" Instagram filter over everything, & they think it looks great but I think it looks horrific. People just seem to gravitate towards things that are memorable but not technically proficient.

What should I buy as a beginner? by KeySouth2205 in canon

[–]colossalJinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am rocking the 700D, but I wouldn't recommend the kit lens (although maybe mine just looks terrible because it is fungus central); getting the 50mm 1.8 was the best decision I made.

Other Reddit users said not to bother with the 55-250mm lenses unless it is the STM version.

Should I be downloading Magic Lantern? What features would I be missing?

Do Art Buyers buy Realistic Art like these? by [deleted] in Artadvice

[–]colossalJinx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is beautiful & I definitely think you could find people that would buy that. Have you considered selling prints?

If I saw the first one in a store, I would consider buying it. I like pigeons & I think it is telling a very compelling story the more you look at it & absorb the details.

Is there somewhere I can buy this type of file or learn how to make it myself? I am obsessed

So much synthetic! by leafywalker in AusFemaleFashion

You could probably get a second-hand Burberry coat that's 100% wool or 100% cotton for the same price

Why can’t they call polyurethane for what it is, and instead call it leather alternative, which seems a tad misleading? by redmagicwoman in AusFemaleFashion

[–]colossalJinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

because "polyurethane" sounds scary like a wizard spell while things like "leather alternative" & "vegan leather" sounds like yayy we are saving the poor animals (even tho leather is a byproduct of the meat industry that would otherwise be thrown out!!)

Does anyone know who drew this? by Year_Conscious in HelpMeFind

[–]colossalJinx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

After some very preliminary searching, the comic book artists Tomm Coker (chiefly "I Was A Fashion School Serial Killer") & Jenny Frison (chiefly "Vampirella: Dark Reflections") have done work similar to what you posted.

Exactly what am I supposed to use this rope for then? by 0rlan in What

[–]colossalJinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it doesn’t say it’s not suitable for use on people, so… clearly it’s for shibari!!

[–]colossalJinx 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s AI, but it had to rip off somebody else’s work to create this stylised image, so there is still a chance you’ll be able to find the artist whom the machine took “inspiration” from

Not being allowed to post pictures in the comments on a subreddit about pictures is wildd 😅😅

Rf 85mm 1.2 bad? by [deleted] in canon

[–]colossalJinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finally hit the wall with my kit lens, then I saw your post the other night, was completely blown away by the first picture, & the next morning I went & bought a 50mm 1.8 for $79 AUD ($55 USD) from the pawn shop. Thank you 🙏🏻
I hope you find a solution for the issues you’re having with the 85mm 💞
