    hi,

    On another design forum (I'm not gonna give the link, it's dutch so you guys wouldn't understand it) all hell's breaking loose.
    3 or 4 members think they're absolute design gods because they don't use brushes but only filters. The majority however thinks they're nuts, cause you can get a much nicer result with much mess effort and time with the use of brushes.

    The filterguys state that anyone using brushes is a n00b and asn't allowed to judge about filters being good or not -_-

    So this caused a big commotion and a few members are entangled in a battle of words to defend the brushes.

    The filterguys also say that they'd rather have an ugly sig that is made only with filters than a very nice sig made with brushes. That doesn't make any sense!!!

    I ask everyone to please take a look at all the below posted sigs and wallpapers and say which you like best, the filtered ones. Or the brushed ones.

    Here are some of the sigs that the filterguys think are fabulous:

    Here are some of the things they think are n00bie because there are brushes involved:

    the best result is a combination of both..
    and if you don't want to combine, just get some nice brushes :)
    Sigs with filtering only look like ****

    Ah yes the endless battle. RedvsBlue. PepsivsCoke.

    However, the 5th Filterguys one is quite nice. I noticed a few of the brushed ones were yours, Ferali. n00b!! ;) jk

    I'm not gonna say the filter ones are BAD, but the brush ones are better. I like brushes!

    Plus, it's the only technique I know how to use. I'm new at Photoshop...:D
