check out this image:
wasnt that 3d graphic in the background something that Gmunk, only color inverted in photoshop with a bunch of dumb shit on top of it?
im almost positive ive seen that before by gmunk for a DiK cover or some shit.

the funny thing is that graphic was published in some little graphic design booklet, with him talking about being all creative and shit.

you don't even have a reference image to compare to. You're just calling him out.

he's been tearing it up actually. i'm with the who cares on this one though.

Ok this thread just got awesome. instrmntl just proved this is a rip, and hankvice proved he's an idiot.

ouch you guys... well, take a look at gmunk's site - which blatantly states 2001 nyc update in the url directory. And for all you haters - I was actually in toronto at his lecture where he goes on for the majority of the time talking about his old work from years back. Then shows his new work which surprise surprise looks stylistically the same as it did. I would love to see gmunk do something that doesn't contain random 3-d renders and tiny texture overlays.

my first post on my iphone and it does look like a rip but gmunk is the only one who can really decide

Hank, you seem to have registered on QBN.com with the sole purpose of shitting on gmunk's entire body of work in one fell swoop.
- I think hank is gmunk in disguise. Trying to mess with us!ifeltdave

killerqueen, obviously i was right, was there a point in being a bitch?
so yes, this is a rip, i just remember thumbing through the booklet at B&N and being like "whoa..wtf.. deja vu". so apparently it is a rip.
thats pathetic because google the dudes name, he gets himself around, to an extent. apparently his rip is fairly old too.

@hank...
i do totally respect and <3 gmunks old shit, it definitely paved some interesting directions at the new years of flash and shit.. but, i noticed ive seen clips of many of his more recent discussions (OFFF, etc) and he always seem to cover the exact same shit, like that coke bottle with the texture of all the lines, or whatever.
does he really keep only iterating the same old stories? thats the gist that im getting of it... plus the work he showed still seems to be rooted in the day of random abstract 3d explosions and colorful light trails without anything new or original..
i dont want to disrespect but i do get a sort of gist that he hasnt shown some progression, but icant really speak cause i havetn seen him talk live, just clips of his talks. and theyre all the same.
