Hi, I'm NewYinzer and I'm an os-tanaholic!

NejinOniwa · February 24, 2007, 12:20:41 PM

Hi, I'm Nejin Oniwa and I'll be going north tomorrow to SPANK THE BRAINS OUT O' THE SPEED LIMITS, REAL HARD!!! OOOOOH YEEAAHHH!!!!!! ;006 ;006 ;006

...erhm...just wanted to say that.

; So I'll be gone from here for a week...will i survive? ;013 Question is, though, whether or not i will survive racing down a frigging slope at 200k or more, so let's just hope i don't do the ME while i'm there (crash. boom.)...

er......oh and also, i'm an OS-tanaholic. And haruhiist. A little. Or...much. Depends. *continues pointless rant for too long to be able to put it in this post*

Ni hao! Call me Jereath (J-tan, preference) and no, it's just my alias.

I'm just a typical average Chinese that is living in the Khatulistiwa equator! So it's sunny all year round! For the past 17 years, I haven't even touched snow! I'm quite pale if you compare me to my friends despite the scorching sun all year round. I have black silky hair, average height of 170cm (hoping to reach that height soon ^^;) and I don't know what else to say!

I love Japanese Animation as well as Computer Graphic but my artistic value is near to zero. No talent for art! However, greatly interested and will fascinate other's people arts! I only know the basic of Photoshop so I can only make simple avatars as well as signatures.

Some of you may have this particular question of "How you came across this forum?"

Well, it's simple to guess. Like I said, I love pictures and animes so I somehow came across this forum by browsing one of my usual graphic site which lead me to the Wiki's OS-tan definition. Then through the external link which you can find it and the bottom page of Wiki.

Feel free to ask anything that I can answer.

Hi, welcome to this forum. It is no problem not to have much skill concerning drawing, only a few people here actively draw Os-tans. But in case you want to try, I would recommend inkscape or similar vector-based programs. Using GIMP or Photoshop is rather difficult if you want Bezier curves.

Oh BTW: Could you please look into the Linux0.12+VM-thread to help me on RedFlag-tan?

Jereath · February 25, 2007, 07:55:12 AM

Hello Kami-Tux!

It will be good if you can list out all the vector based programs.

Sorry but I got no idea what is Linux0.12+VM-thread. It will ease me if you can provide a link or something.

Kami-Tux · February 25, 2007, 08:02:05 AM

Sorry, it's this one: http://ostan-collections.net/topic-420.html

C-Chan · February 25, 2007, 11:51:00 AM

Welcome Jereath! ^v^
Touche, I'm also an avid vector graphics user. ^__^

I recommend only Inkscape since that's what we use, it's free, fully featured, easy to learn AND now comes with blurring effects. ^.^

www.inkscape.org

If you're interested in other programs, you can check the full listing here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_vector_graphics_editors

But then if you use something else, we won't be able to help ya out as much. ^v^;

In any case, let's discuss more on that Linux thread. ^.^

Speaking of which, you described yourself in detail, but left out the most important detail for this forum: Which OS (or OSes) do you use? ^v^'

NewYinzer · February 25, 2007, 06:50:20 PM

Welcome Jereath! It's nice to know that the Chinese government has not blocked our site! Feel free to enjoy the forums, browse the gallery, and download from the download section!

C-Chan · February 25, 2007, 06:57:27 PM

I have more to worry about my workplace blocking this site, ya know. So please please PLEASE try to keep this SFW. -v-'

Welcome and nice to you three. Enjoy! ^__^

diferensial · February 25, 2007, 10:48:39 PM

Hello, you can call me Om, or just my nick. I'm 18 and I live in SouthEast Asia country.

My nick is a little bit weird, but i don't care about it...
At first I saw this forum, i said WOW!!
i've never seen it before...

Maybe because I rarely browsing something new...

Jereath · February 26, 2007, 12:28:56 AM

Gome! Gome!

Some of you may mistaken it but my motherland is not China although my Grandfather and Grandmother do. I live in Malaysia. As I stated, Malaysia is situated directly on the Khatulistiwa equator so it's hot and sunny all year round!

I use Window XP SP 2 and I'm not quite good with computer even after 14 years of using them since Window 98!

Tsubashi · February 26, 2007, 12:34:40 AM

I think you mean "Gomen"
Though why you're apologizing for our misconceptions, I'm not sure... Ã,Â¬vÃ,Â¬

Either way welcome to the forums, and thanks for bringing even more ethnic diversity!!

Quoteso it's hot and sunny all year round!

Not Fair!!! I swear, we just got 500cm of snow here (Not quite, but it seems like it ^.^)
And on top of it, my friend just went on a cruise! X_X
Not Fair!

It's okay, though. I usually like snow!
