Howdy All!

Hi everyone

I've been browsing around this forum for some months now and finally decided to join, haven't posted on any forums in years so gotta get back into it.

Anyway, obviously I'm a big TGA fan. More so since I saw them live for the first time in June.
They're now definitely one of my favourite bands if not THEE favourite. Not sure if they've taken the place of my beloved Muse yet.

I'm 18 from the middle of England.
But in September I'm moving down to Cornwall (South West coast) to go to Falmouth Uni and study Graphic Design, woooo.
Only bad thing about that is it's miles away from any main music venues so I probably won't be able to see Gaslight again unless it's when I'm home.

That's about all.

wow there are a lot of people from u.k. around here

i think it is awesomw you are going to study graphic design. that is what i wanted to study too before i found out, you couldn't study that in graz

so welcome

Really you can't study it? That sucks.
I've just finished a two year course in Graphics (get my results next week!) and I really can't imagine doing anything else now, so bring on the degree.

So if anyone wants any graphics doing?

Hey dude. I'm from UK too!

When you move to Falmouth make sure you check out http://www.myspace.com/bangersbangers


Great band! and Southampton/Brighton isn't TOO far away from there is it?

Hey.

I'm afraid that is miles away. Like 200 miles or something.
Unless I went by sea. haha.

Closest large venue type place is probably Plymouth, and beyond that Bristol but not sure how I'd get there.
Could be fun to try though!

Having a look at the link now... I'll keep an eye out for them.

I think us English might outnumber everyone else, haha. Welcome to the forum!
Good luck with uni as well, I'm off to Southampton to study Journalism in September.

Thanks.
Ah Journalism very cool, I have a friend who wants to do that.

I think First Great Weston do trains from Cornwall - Bristol, but im sure its about 3-4 hours =/
I could be wrong....

Yeah, that's a possibility. They probably don't run too late though, I'd have to camp it out in Bristol for the night. Could be fun!

hey man, have fun in college. i'm starting in the fall too. i'm pumped. and Gaslight's worth a long trip to see 'em, so go anyway!

Did you do the drawing of SOS for your avatar? That is really bad ass.

Yeeeeah I did.
Thanks, glad you like it.

Hey Emyr, welcome to the forums. Glad you decided to start posting! Have fun.

Hello, welcome to the forums. That drawing is really good by the way.

Thank you. Makes me want to do more now.

I haven't welcomed you yet, so hi! You've settled in well already though!

I was looking through your DA and saw your GA desktop. Could you upload that image file? It looks deadly.

Hello! Thank you. I'm getting the hang of forum posting again. Haha.

I think I just cropped it from a poster.

I'm pretty sure that didn't upload full size... that okay?

That's excellent!! Thank you!


And again, welcome!

Hi - I think you will excel at Graphic Design by the looks of it - awesome - and "hello!"

you should do a drawing or two for the forum... we have had the same logo for about 6 months now, do something kick ass and I am sure the other admins will agree to use it as the logo

Oh cool, okay. I'll see what I can come up with.

Does it need to be the same dimensions as the existing banner?

I made this:

Didn't want to chop their legs off. XD

But then I made a better banner sized one:

Or I could make it the same size as the current one.

There's also a huge sized one: https://2img.net/h/oi32.tinypic.com/2s5xq4z.jpg
I dunno, you could use it as desktop wallpaper!


EDIT:

More contrast & smaller:

I like these, but should we not keep up with Benny's new look? There must be some posed pics with him with the short hair.

If you can help me find pictures, I struggled to find anything that was use-able. :/

I appreciate that, as I haven't seen any posed pics online with the new hair do, even if there have been some in various magazines. But like I said, I like the ones you did, I just wondered if the band had to look up to date.
