No, that's good. I can take a nap when I get home from work.

Just a quick Q:

"Paint:" I usually use Fireworks. Will that work?

And a comment:
I am an utter and complete nOOb when it comes to areas. I hope I don't slow things down too much.


Okay, then we will just have the class at 9pm PST.

If your Fireworks can do layers, then you are fine. I will be using Photoshop Elements for the class (I have PS 6.0, but don't need all that extra stuff for this). But you don't have to make the door bitmap if you don't want to do it. I will just show everyone how to do it easily.

Don't worry about being a Noob:) That is what the class is for. I will just show everyone plainly and easily with no technical talk. You can ask all the questions you want. The area will be small with just one door (which we will make together). It will be a simple area to get the feel of making one.

Make sure to get that Yugma thingy and register for it, that is how you will see what I do. It's free and painless, it just asks for an email address. Hopefully you have MSN also... that is an easy way for us to conference. The Yugma has a conference, but it is slower than MSN.

I will post the files you will need before the class somewhere (depending on how it is announced) or just PM each person with the necessary info.

I am sorry, but I than hereby have to report that I won't make it (less a miracle happens...). I hope Tassadar can film everything and I would love to take you up on your offer to have our own session later. Once again I apoligize Cuv, but you know that it wasn't I that wanted it this way, I am still super eager to learn.

Still modding the Mod for the Wicked... It is a big project you know... And I got sidetracked (several times) a bit... sorry.

I am Pacific Time (PST). California. What is that? GMT +8 or +7... not sure.

Just a little note to say that PST is actually GMT -8, and not +8. :)

Ooops, well I don't know my GMT's :)

Can you still make the class Kae?

That is roughly 24 hours from right now. I am heading for work, then will sleep and be ready to start the class when I awaken. Anyone who can join is welcome.

Are we using Yugma or MSN? I've got MSN, still working on installing Yugma.

Yes, for the try out class we found out it is better to have both. Yugma for viewing, MSN for talking.
Give my regards to Tassadar and Cuv when you are there ;)

Hey igi or Kae, you can probably un-pin this thread now and let it fall by the wayside. It can easily be resurrected when another class is being planned :cheers:

They say the world is going to Hell.

They are wrong.

The world IS Hell! Always has been, always will be; except perhaps for the five percent or so of the population who can afford differently.

And, if one must reside in Hell, it is far better to do it as a minion of the Devil than as a member of the damned.
