Anyone wants one, email me dennis@dcbeatty.com Only $100 each I figure the program will be about $800 when the full version comes out, so $100 is nothing. Heck, I'd pay $5000 for this.

I should have never even brought it up. When Corel was developing the technology for Autopaint, people thought that was all fake too. Like every leap in graphics technology there are going to be some snags. This is a small group of beta testers ranging in skill from the incompetent boob to the experienced Art Director. Naturally the less experienced users are going to have a more intuitive experience, they don't know the hard way and so it comes naturally to them. The dynamics of retraining the more advanced users is a bit of a nightmare. After years of frustration and toil, it is hard to unlearn the grief associated with programs like Photoshop. Let me make something clear, Although code name end game (Launch date postponed) is a very capable program. It is for new users only, You will find no cumbersome tool bar in Endgame, There is no time wasted looking for a pen, pencil or brush tool, what do those have to do with computer graphics anyway? If I wanted to draw I would use paper and a pen. It's a computer god damn it use the powers I tells ya. This is the driving force of the program. Why think for myself when I can have endgame do it for me. For those that are missing out I am sorry I will do my best to explain what I can. Electronic Arts was poised to purchase Take Two, the makers of GTA. This deal was critical to the funding of the project for our unknown developer who was entitled to compensation after being so ungraciously canned. Take Two botched the deal saying.. EA CEO John Riccitiello's proposal was "inadequate in multiple respects and not in the best interests of Take-Two's stockholders." That is Bullshit. At any rate Funding has to come from other sources. That is why it is vital to the continuing development of the project that a copy no matter what the build NEVER get's released. For those with an advance copy the current patch will be available shortly. I trust you guys. This is a crossover from the gaming industry after all. Imagine whole worlds. Think above the flat and into the 3d. For two long artist have been training themselves all sorts of tricks to turn a flat surface into a realistic interpretation of our natural world. "Advancements" in 3d modeling such as z brush have quite frankly gone backwards Sculpting tools so that it feels more like real sculpture. WHAT that's retarded, making a sculpture is hard work. Motion Capture. Putting dots all over some dumb actor hoping about like a monkey. How is that the future? The point is quit simply to capture the natural world, interpret that world and render it in magnificent ways with all the ease of just a glance. This is on a whole new level of thinking so of couse there will be skeptics. Velda Draw is Real, and it is going to Blow your Mind. 12951 Post 2009-01-20T23:49:29-05:00 342637 506 2009-01-20T23:51:41-05:00 <blockquote><cite>dcbeatty said:</cite> <blockquote><cite>collisiontheory said:</cite> where's quaker? i want an invite!!</blockquote> My friend Zach found one from someone else.

The developer is a man of vision and I would really hate to see this thing fall apart so late in the game.

I can't really tell you what to do with it. I just want Velda Draw to remain safe until the launch later this year.

I am already in violation of my Non Disclosure Agreement as is. I'm lucky to still be on the project. The Developer and I go way back to college so he's trying to be cool about it. But he has investors now and they are not as lenient. Times being what they are. We both have to be drug tested, and that's never fun. With all the rips on Tee shirts these days I can only imagine what someone would be willing to do to get there hands on a copy. I don't even know if I have already given up a copy to a rival developer posing as a noob. I'm freaking out a bit about it. The launch date was scheduled for later this year. That's all I can really say. 12951 Post 2009-01-21T02:13:01-05:00 342888 506 2009-01-21T02:13:01-05:00 Has anyone got an invites?

It's amazing that in so little time it has become so much better and efficient than Illustrator.

It crashes when I scale over 400-500% up or down. It's really annoying. The color "intelligence" is amazing though.

And the palette generator, holy crap, the fact that it combs the image for variances in white space, and creates varying color palettes according to the mathematical likely hood of the colors being complimentary to the design is flawless.

I didn't know that about Threadless, glad you had a pretty good time despite the lame questions! 12951 Post 2009-06-01T06:24:09-04:00 1002631 3005 2009-06-01T06:24:09-04:00 Even though it seems like we all have stopped talking about Velda I was just wandering if anyone knows the price of this?? Also anyone got any examples of using it??? Any works made from it yet? Screenshots? I'm interested in buying it when it comes out. 12951 Post 2009-06-01T07:18:20-04:00 1002781 14791 2009-06-01T07:18:20-04:00 I'm not too sure what the final price will be. Those of us that are lucky enough to be testing the beta got it for free. We're not allowed to post screenshots or anything at all unfortunately - not even the designs. There's probably a few out there that have been created with Velda, but we aren't allowed to credit it to Velda. 12951 Post 2009-06-01T07:20:18-04:00 1002811 3005 2009-06-01T07:21:02-04:00 alright, thats cool i guess. if i saw the end product now i'd probably just die in anticipation of using it, now ill just have to die waiting for the chance of me seeing what it can do. 12951 Post 2009-06-01T07:56:05-04:00 1002991 14791 2009-06-01T07:56:05-04:00
