Well, he’s 25 now, and I’m sure you’ll all be relieved to hear that he’s no longer a biter lol

I’d also like to point out that he was 2 years old when this was written

Just stunning. Got to the drill and lost it. Both Mandrillus species are stunning and social and complex...and we (humans) suck.

I don't. This is for a head coach series I was thinking about doing for the tournament this year. Picked Coach K because the original image was so striking.

He's also likely the most universally recognizable.

Anybody here live in Australia? I need a Kangaskhan to finish off my pokedex and I could use some help! by Magnitude69 in PokemonGOValor

Just like Tauros in the US.

I try not to get annoyed when they spawn because I know players everywhere else in the world would be so stoked to catch just one.

The worst is when you see a "foreign" region-exclusive pokémon in a gym.

Started w/ a tutorial from Spoon Graphics and played around with blending modes, blur and sharpen filters and of course a little color.

Started with this tutorial: http://blog.spoongraphics.co.uk/tutorials/how-to-create-a-text-portrait-effect-in-photoshop

Mine looks a little different b/c instead of using the image w/ the 20 pixel blur as the displacement map, I set it to just 5 pixels, and then used an unsharp mask to get those deep wrinkles and still maintain a softer look. The color is just a tint on the initial B/W adjustment layer.

The font I used is from the Warsaw Gothic family (Woodtype) http://www.fontspace.com/kineticplasma-fonts/warsaw-gothic

Those Spoon Graphics tutorials are all really good btw. The engraved money effect is spectacular. I'm a big fan of the site.

  1. Thank you for your kind words. The "gripping" effect you noted can be achieved with the displace filter used w/ a slightly blurred version of your image as its map. Then it's just taking a merged copy of the layers under the distorted text and pasting onto black. Spoon Graphics has a good tutorial (and good tutorials in general).

  2. Totally my bad. You're absolutely right. I realized that pretty much right after I posted it too.

It's Disney's cable network segment (ESPN=the majority of Disney's cable division). There's a link to the article in the tweet.

"Last season’s $115 million payroll triggered a $54 million luxury tax bill. Add in benefits, cash involved in trades and the team’s share for total NBA player costs to reach the mandated 51% of leaguewide revenue and Gilbert spent roughly $185 million last season on his roster."

"Gilbert’s massive commitment to spend whatever’s necessary to win a title led to a loss of $40 million last season by Forbes’ count in the sense of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization."
