What I've Been Up To

Posted by Jacob Philpott

Hey guys sorry I haven't been posting recently, school has really kept me busy. I hope I can start pumping out more tutorials for both Photoshop and Gimp, but for now I will just show you some of the things I've been doing.

Ok this one was a guitar (obviously) done from scratch in a vector style. Done in Photoshop, about one and a half hours to complete. I used mainly the pen tool. I suggest for projects like these to have a model definitely.

This one is my latest photo-manipulation. Made in Photoshop in about 45 minutes. Besides removing the head and replacing what was missing of the shirt, I also messed with colors and lighting.

Photobucket

Not the most original idea, I've seen similar pieces to this done around before, just thought I'd have my own try at it.

Did this a while ago, the texture on the skin is... Could you guess? It was the stump of a tree.

A style obviously inspired by the one and only Abduzeedo:

Aside from these, I've made more Youtube videos for Gimp users, and also a little demo on the capabilities of the Clone tool in either program.

Those are some great manipulations you got there. It's very artistic and I'm impressed that it only took you only one and a half hour. Great job!

My Review
is a big, fat, outrageous scam. A few months ago I happened to place an order for a 20 page paper through their website. With “transparent” writer reviews and “affordable” prices, I thought I was making the best choice available. I was wrong. (A bit of background information: I am a senior in college who wanted a sample paper to help me complete my comps). When I first saw website, it didn’t seem horrible. They promised low prices and their writers seemed American or at least fluent in the English language (stupid me thinking that their writers’ names were real). But what was advertised as $7.50 per page quickly spiraled into $25 and $30 per page. On top of that, I realized that if you didn’t buy from a pricey writer, your paper was going to be complete shit. Like illegible. Like an F. So after I placed my order with a writer named God-knows-what in real life, I sat and waited for my paper. I had written a draft of my paper already and was going to use this to ease the process. What I got was COMPLETE GARBAGE. The paper was formatted incorrectly, it didn’t reach the page limit I PAID FOR, and didn’t even address the topics I requested. I think assumes that students who use their service are complete idiots. Some may be. But I am not. I ordered a paper with them because I care about my grades (who doesn’t when paying 50K a year for school) and wanted to IMPROVE my dissertation. So, what did they do when I called to ask for a partial refund? They told ME that nothing could be done. That the terms and conditions I agreed too were set in stone and that it was my fault for having selected the writer that I did.

Essentially they told me that they can take my money but not offer a shred of accountability when one of their employees fucks up. WOW. And then here’s the best part: when I called to speak with someone about giving a negative review of their service, they told me they would find out where I go to school and make sure I would always regret speaking poorly about them. Real professional. So, as an aspiring computer programmer, A REALLY PISSED OFF CUSTOMER, and someone who doesn’t give a flying fuck that these scam artists have my contact information, I created this website to inform students around the world that is a scam. I encourage fellow students who have been scammed by this company to give their reviews on as well. The more reviews the merrier.

As I dug a deeper review of past, I found some pretty scary things. Like for instance that their writers are almost all Pakistani (over 30% of their daily web traffic comes from the country) and use FAKE AMERICAN NAMES to pretend they are native English speakers. Isn’t it time this bullshit be investigated? I don’t care what you think about paper writing services (whether you believe they are ethical or not) but at least take down the companies that are pure scams like
