'Family Guy' Creator Seth MacFarlane's Web-Only Series Launches

If you enjoy Seth MacFarlane's 'Family Guy,' then you must love the constant barrage of non sequiturs that keep you guessing in every episode. That's the main theme of Seth's new show, the 'Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy,' a series of short sketches from the man himself that are each completely random, and each available to watch only online.

Email a site on windows Sep 12, 08, 7:49 a.m.

You know how you can email a site on Osx?

on Safari:
File/ Mail Contents of This page

then it opens mail and you can email the site just the way you will see on the page.

How would you do that on windows?

Design Sense on multiple mediums Sep 6, 08, 12:29 p.m.

I'm going to quote someone here, it's irrelevant who it was, I'm not interested in questioning that specific person, but instead I see an opportunity to open a debate regarding design and how us (designers) perceive it across multiple mediums.

So here is the quote:

After "QBN Member Y" posted samples of printed works and web works, "QBN Member X" stated the following comment:

Wow, cool. I'm not really able to appreciate web screen shots because I don't do web stuff, but I love the print stuff...

My question is:
Shouldn't we (as designers) should have an increased sensitivity towards any discipline related in design? and I'm not talking just about web design and print design, but architecture, furniture, video, interior design, industrial design, etc.

Do you guys feel un-able to appreciate and distinguish the values that separate the facade of an interesting old pub building as opposed to the front door of a fast food restaurant just because you are not an architect?

Can you look at a nice designed printed marketing piece and have absolutely no emotions provoked by the piece, just because you only design websites?

Are you unable to distinguish the differences that a quick group friends photo shot at a birthday party with a photo shot with multiple strobes in order to enhance features of a subject with lights and shadows just because you only do motion graphics?

To keep this as objective as possible, I won't post my opinions till a few responses later.

you think you know ghetto? Aug 29, 08, 12:01 p.m.

For those of you that think you know what ghetto is.. Let me introduce you to Ilha Das flores

A constant and verbose off-narrator guides the viewer through the life of a tomato. Beginning at Mr Suzuki's tomato field, the tomato is then sold to a supermarket, where it is acquired by Mrs Anete, a perfume saleswoman, together with some pork.

Together with the rest of the garbage, the tomato is taken to Isle of Flowers (Ilha das Flores), Porto Alegre's landfill. There, the most adequate organic material is selected as food for pigs. The rest, which is considered inadequate for the pigs, is given to poor women and children to feed.

I think its a good idea that we dedicate one thread to so we can all "meet" (if we can call it that). Let's try to keep this one clean and organized so we can all see each other.

Suggestions:
1) Each member should only post 1 photo of themselves, not of anyone else.

2) Your photo should have your face visible, hopefully only of yourself, so there is no confusions.

3) Avoid adding artwork/ typework/ graphics.

4) You can only post 1 photo, so make sure is recent!

5) Everyone can comment on the photos as many times as you want, let's keep it civilized, no insults!

6) Please, no penis, no boobs, no ass, no lol cats, no fails, or anything like that, just a photo of yourself. If you don't want to show us your photo, then don't but keep it clean!

Not trying to be the police here, I just think it would be better if we keep the visual pollution out this time.

That's all!

GO!

Donating my gulfstream Aug 19, 08, 11:41 a.m.

As all of you may know, our dear QBN friend was going through some economic problems
See:
http://www.qbn.com/topics/562441…

So, since I've been doing so well with my juicy royalties from http://www.logoking.com/ decided to help him out, so I bought his aircraft.

I don't really need it, cause it looks a bit outdated for our taste, so I'm thinking of donating it.

PS: I know, I was a bit skeptic of Hedgy making all this shit up about him being so wealthy, but it does look after all he is for real.

trapcode particular - AE CS3 Aug 14, 08, 2:08 p.m.

Hello boys and girl of QBN.
I have recently installed trapcode particular demo pack on CS3, and I can't get it to work.

After checking the trapcode forums. I realized I was not the only one with the same problem, a lot of google, has led to the information that trapcode particular, might not show up on the EFFECTS drop down menu, but it may just show up on the EFFECTS & PRESETS tab on the right.

And it did!
I was a happy guy, till I clicked on it and it gave me this message:

"This favorite contains 1 reference to a missing effect. Please install the following effect to restore this reference. ("Particular") "

I re-installed of course, and the same message shows up.

Anyone knows what else I could do?

I'm on a MBP with AE CS3 (8.0.0.247)
and OSX 10.4.11

thanks in advance!

Quick flash to page flip? Jul 31, 08, 3:44 p.m.

My sister is presenting a portfolio on an interview today and she has no idea how to use flash, I was thinking of those plug ins that will convert pages into a clickable magazine that she can put on a CD (hopefully) as she doesn't have a website yet.

is there something like this around?
hopefully free or pretty cheap.

thanks in advance!

Flash link to another site Jul 29, 08, 12:43 p.m.

So I made this blog using blogger right?
all the images are hosted on my client server, and the navigation is in flash.

But for some reason none of the links work.
I made them all like http://www.clienthost.com/page.h…

what am I doing wrong?
is there something else I need to add on the swf?
