RODEN'S PROFILE

hey wanna be super depressed?
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/08/01/magazine/climate-change-losing-earth.html

It's hard to be depressed reading this, mostly cause I've read it before, I know it, and I've gotten used to seeing nothing done about it.

The good news is that when our species destroys itself, the world will almost certainly live on without us. Better that it does, for if this is the best we can do then we never deserved it at all.

EDIT:

I should take a moment to say something personal regarding the scary, hopeless feeling of how quickly its beginning to show itself, too. This Summer in NFLD has been brutal, but it barely even started until July. We couldn't hold on to snow during the winter months, either. The entire year has been weird.

But now, in the depths of Summer, its gotten startlingly weird, fast. There's too many completely cloudless, baking in the sun type days. Too much humidity, not enough rain. No thunder. Temperatures are always around 25-35, when back as a child 27 would have been considered a really hot day.

I don't want to lose the Earth. I don't want to see my home province get screwed up by this either. But I feel like I can't do anything, if even the most powerful countries on Earth don't care about saving the planet they live on.

Can you do something with me?

I want to challenge you: try to pick a character or situation that I'm NOT going to like.

You will fail.

The tiling suggestion sounds cool, thanks! As for the circle, unfortunately RM2K3's native resolution is 320x240, meaning I can't do much about that :(

I think you misunderstood- even in RM2k3's native resolution, aliasing is perfectly possible:



As for the light, I figured I'd provide some reference, since I'm already cracking open photoshop and all:



This shot also includes aliasing on the bottom left and top right of the circle, so you can see the difference.

I use VX Ace at the moment. I would use MV, but the editor lags terribly on my machine for whatever reason. So I don't think its very well put together, to say the least.

I was a huge advocate of 2k3 for the longest time, but now that I've warmed up to VXA there's no turning back.

They're all gay
