gmunk, amongst others.

gmunk and ej are different enough to exist together gmunk pushes video and 2a is known for flash i can honestly say 2a flash site is better but gmunk walks away with the video prize so i dont see what the problem is

im talking back when EJ was first coming out with his 2a sites... they were very very very derivative.
nothing new, never has been anything new, thats why he gets no respect, especially when he attempts to speak on design.

i see it as all new unless it looks JUST like it
which none of it does
i mean arent you ripping me if you tween something i mean i did it first and fades and rotations and the choppy cutting in video now days was actually being done by hand with film long before final cut and premire
even rotoscoping has been around almost 100 years but nobady is bitching at that new movie scanner darkly or whatever
ised a mac before you, i used illustrator before you, i tested flash before it had a chance to be cool, i did graphitti art like adult swim uses befrore they ever aired it
no one has ripped me
people are enjoying creating

I'm on this forum right now because of Eric Jordan i saw 2a version 3 it was a wrap for me i knew i needed to this this now i work on big projects and i didnt step in college. Thats all i'm saying we need forumsd and need to see more hottness only the hotness and be ORIGINAL THATS THE KEY!!!

t'wasnt me
nick seems to have a chip
my points are valid without name dropping or hating
- flash_me0
eric jordan knows nothing about design or original ideas.
i've never heard him say anything valid on either subject.
do you???
- blackspade0
comes down to personal taste, not wanting to fill peoples shoes
- flash_me0
yeah your right anyways man i'm for the forums i'v became educated of f of forums alone and tutorials and things i agree some times people get on these forums looking for the newest ideas then go and copy. if your going to copy change it alittle or try to approach it with a different angle thats it i believe that only a chosen few in designset the path.
thats my opinion dont beet me up hehe

didn't want to bring this thread into 2a territory - my apologies.
this comment just got to me:
"this one of my favorite quotes.
the best way to brake the rules is to never have learned them.
- Eric Jordan 2advanced"all i wanted to say was that eric jordan isnt somebody you should be looking up to if you're wanting to create good, thoughtful design. on the other hand, if you want to look at somebody who has created a hell of a business model by jocking some next dudes style and never evolving from that point, then look up to him all you want.
