Beard! :)

+1 beardyman - it looks badass imo :P

I saw him with the beard and I don't know why he ever shaved. Looks kinda creepy without...

Creepy is a little harsh, I just think it makes him look way younger

That's why I said kinda, not to be too harsh.

It's true that we are wired to associate facial hair with maturity, it is a sign of adulthood in a way so it's hard for me to understand why anyone would reject it. Whenever I see a shaved face I see poor time management skills and susceptibility to social pressure, they could be using that time into other things. Admittedly I am biased, haven't shaved in years, that's probably why the practice just seems unnecessary and maybe even a little vain.

Aha agreed, I used to have to shave constantly working customer facing jobs years ago and it drove me nuts. I'd feel naked without it now, unfortunately it looks like I might have to rejoin the normie workforce soon so fingers crossed I can avoid shaving :P
Id say it was part of my religion to avoid it if that wouldnt bring a whole bunch of new issues lol

yummy

No beard

Bears, Beets, Battlestar Galactica.

In this case I defer to the preference of the woman in my life.

Aha fair enough, this is one of the only legit excuses imo - gotta keep the missus happy :)

Beards are great. My friend looked like he was going to go for the zzTop's beard but then he chopped it down. WOAH! Don't do that man. Now, I am taking photos of him all the time just in case he does something foolish, again. Of course, I have to do artzy fartzy pics of him, but, he's OK with that. I slip him the blue pills at night while he's asleep (or should that be the red pills?) but, no worries we have fun.

UhOh the blue ones could be viagra. From now on it's the red pills. I love playing with my phone apps and changing my photos to monsters and such. > At least he darker, creative side of my brain pan has fun with my captures.

If you are going to have a beard, have a beard, not a couldn't be bothered to shave 5 o'clock shadow.

In My (not so) Humble Opinion,

If God had intended man to have a naked face, he would have built in a razor blade - or, a lawn mower.

😄😇😄

@creatr

You know what's funny? I'm more likely to follow a guy with a beard on Twitter and Snapchat rather than a clean-shaven one. I don't know why except to guess that I associate it with maturity and ruggedness.

cheesy?? just a tad!!

Its not that you suck at photoshop, its that photoshop sucks.

I like Gimp much better for editing photos
And Krita is miles ahead of photoshop when it comes to actually making drawings.
And both are free.

Unlike photoshop, which Adobe charges through the nose for, both coming and going. And that crap Adobe did with flash and shitting on the open-source community really sucked.

So, yeah, get yourself Krita and Gimp.

Photoshop doesn't suck. What sucks is whichever platform one does not learn.

I started with the adobe suite. I know it well enough to be very sure in my assessment, that it sucks.

Well, it really sucks at drawing. And especially sucks compared to Krita at drawing.
It is quite good at touching up photos.

Very nice. I started with 3.0. Not CS3, I mean 3.0. We're talking 1995, and I've been using it ever since. Currently using their Creative Cloud service. In fact, I've based a business on it. I'm sure you think it sucks - everyone is entitled to their opinion and I'm certain everyone has one. Just also be assured in your assessment that while it sucks for you, others are paying their mortgage with it.

Yep, Krita did not exist back in 1995, nor really in 2005.
Photoshop was always a pain in the butt for me to draw with.
It is probably the biggest reason I have done so very little digital art.

But, I agree with you that it is a definite work horse.
I know many people who make their living with it.
And people who are so connected with it, that they will probably never be able to use anything else in their life.

Its like autocad vs many other cads.
When you find people working at drafting, they are almost all on autocad.
If someone is playing, they are all over the place, even that thing on Boogle.

To be honest i used gimp it just gets awkward saying you suck at gimp lol. Could really do with a rebrand so it works better as a verb - ill check out Krita though.

I am gimp at gimp.... yeah, just doesn't have the same ring as IsuckAtPhotoshop.

This guy is awesome, and he is makes tutorials for Krita, and helps with debugging, refinement and brushes. (I think that is what I like most about Krita, is that they are a drawing program written by and for artists.)
