I Need some Chrono Trigger Buttons for a skin i am making
 
Ineed the play stop eq etc... thanks:winamp:

Mr Jones 29th July 2002 07:39

Or in other words, you'd like someone to make a skin for you....

Then steal some images from here...

Or search this if you don't wanna make one...

Well, let's see a preview image. The sprites in Chrono Trigger are rather large, and probably require some playing with the backround. Of course, it would all help if you were to specify on...

1. All the buttons you need
2. What you want on them.

No help from me until then. Saying 'I need play stop, eq, etc' is like walking into a grocery store, going up to a clerk and saying 'I need something that tastes like cheese.'

Bastards. Now I have to go and buy cheese :mad: There better friggin' be some real cheese at 7-Eleven, which is the only thing that's open at the moment. Fat chance methinks :mad:

Jellby 29th July 2002 15:46

What kind of real cheese do you have there?

Sheep cheese?

Australian sheep cheese?

Did you know the world-famous Australian sheep came originally from Spain?

:D

No, I didn't know that. The cheese here is fantastic actually. It's among the best in the world, regularly winning world international contests. Australians are very conservative and euro-centric when it comes to food though, unfortunately. For example, there are around 3 billion kangaroos here, and yet kangaroo is considered a delicacy, and is quite rare and expensive :rolleyes: . We have hundreds of Italian restaurants, we've got Greek, Polish, African, Nepalese, American Indian, Mexican, etc. etc. etc. etc. restaurants. In fact, no other city in the entire world has as many restaurants per capita as Melbourne. There is plenty of cuisine from every inhabited continent - and yet almost no one could tell you what an Aboriginal dish looks like, let alone what it tastes like. I don't think I've ever met anybody who has tasted Aboriginal cuisine. Sad.
Anyway, when it comes to cheese, it's almost always cow cheese. You can get goat's cheese and things like that, but they are usually made by Australian Greeks etc. All sorts of cheeses get made here, Camemberts, Bries, blues, stiltons, cheddars, etc.
Of course, 7-11 didn't have anything resembling real cheese, so I decided to get chocolate instead. They didn't have any good chocolate either, so I came back with lots of chocolate bars instead and now I feel sick...

To our American skin-lovers: I've heard this, I'm not sure if it's true: Is it true that the typical American only knows two types of cheese - "Yellow cheese" and "White cheese"? If that's true, then I don't mean to insult your so-called "developed nation" but that's the most pitiful thing I've ever heard...;)

man, that really is a useless link! :D

That Australian "Coon" cheese is all they had at 7-11 when I went to get cheese before. Cheap stuff. Good for melted sandwiches, but not exactly what you buy a slab of and munch on by itself.

Not true!
American cheese
Cheese in a can
Cheez Whiz
Velveeta

That's 4 kinds of cheese!

Really, we know all sorts of cheese here, gouda, brie, bleu cheese, swiss, cheddar, etc.

Now I've got a question for you non-American skin-lovers:
db, you mentioned 7-11. Do your 7-11's have Slurpees? If so, what are your favorite flavors? If not, I pity you!

My favorite Slurpee flavors: Coca-cola, Pina Colada, Banana, Blue Rasberry, Vanilla Coke - and you gotta have a "suicide", which is all the flavors in one Slurpee.

Atmo 29th July 2002 19:58

Of course australian 7-11s have slurpies...Unfortunately we dont get all those flavours..

J. Burnaway 29th July 2002 20:05

I'm glad you do have Slurpees - they help make life worth living, that is until you get down to the last little bit that won't come up through the straw...

You can pity me, we don't even have a 7-11 hence no slurpies :( :cry:

last time I had a slurpy was on a holiday when I was 12

Mr Jones 29th July 2002 20:24

What was the topic again ?:D

J. Burnaway 29th July 2002 20:26

Perhaps it needs to be changed - to Cheese and Slurpees?

J, seriously, you suicide people are crazy hippies. Can't you just be simple? Cherry. Watermelon. Maybe orange.

And I've always wondered this: is there a way to mix slurpee and taquilla without it melting instantly? I hate that.

Trunks2188 30th July 2002 02:59

That really doesn't help me you idiots go way the hell off topic and I am left trying to find Ideas on yahoo for little pics that no one has but few. Stupid Bastards.....:hang: :mad: :down: Good to get that out

psyfive 30th July 2002 03:41

get an snes emulator, download the chrono trigger rom. take screenshots... solved...


I like the red mountain dew slurpees.


they also have pepsi slurpees at the 7-11 by my house :igor:

Mixing all the flavors RULEZ!

Omnitarian 30th July 2002 04:29

If you just wanted sprites, why didn't you just say so?


Okay, you can all go back to talking about cheese and slurpees and what-have-you.

welcome to SkinLove Trunks2188! sometimes threads do go wildly off-topic, don't take it personally tho. :)

check out Omnitarians link, or take psyfive's advice "get an snes emulator, download the chrono trigger rom. take screenshots... solved... " that way you'll be able to make your own pics and you won't be limited to what you can find on the internet.

on Slurpees, anyone know the 'Slurpee Song' on Brainfreeze by DJ Shadow & Cut Chemist?

Tac-Man 30th July 2002 11:15

ok: on topic

Snes sprites in general seem a bit too big for winamp, so don't try and animate an entire character in a button

just for example , if you wanted Crono to be the play button, dont try and animate his whole body;

instead try making his hair wave and/or his eyes blink

does that help? :D

Tac-Man 30th July 2002 11:18

:eek:

Omni I just looked at your sprite page;

Where did you get the CT sprite set? did you make it yourself?
If so, _wow_ . I only grab a few sprites when I do stuff, and it still seems to take a while.

Not yet :D I'm in the middle of downloading that album, actually. I've got the CD of the sequel to that CD ("Product Placement"), but I decided check out the MP3 version of "Brainfreeze" before I'd buy the CD. Hope it's as good as the "Cookin' with gas rap" :D

ooh you're in for a real treat there bud ;)
"hey, marshal arts fan. are you ready to get your guts kicked out?"

where can you buy the CD? i thought it was extremely rare, only a limited pressing ? that's why i just got the mp3, honest.

personally, i prefer Brainfreeze to Product Placement, but they're both essential mixes. there's a track in 'Product Placement part2' that i've been trying to identify for ages, i've heard it sampled in other songs as well. it begins at 14m20s. you wouldn't happen to know what it's called?

Me personally? Nahh. I like Slurpees, what would I be doing eating high falutin' cheese like that?
We do have fancy supermarkets, and big ethnic supermarkets (heck, there's even a gas station near me that has a large assortment of South African goodies), so I'm sure you can get any kind of cheese you can dream of, but give me a burger anyday.
Here's another question, can you get tortillas and avocados where you are, non-American skinners?

Ripe:Are you talking about the "we have done so much for so long for so little for the ungrateful............" sample? That's a cool sample - but sorry, I've no idea where it came from :(

Yeah, I read that they were extremely rare - only a 1000 or so pressings each (!!) Maybe they rereleased them or something, I don't know. My favourite CD store has a few copies of each! And I was browsing the DJ Shadow section in Melbourne's Virgin megastore last Sunday, and I think there were a few copies of brainfreeze there too...

I've read a few reviews of Product Placement, and most of them said that Brainfreeze was better - so I'm looking forward to it :) But I still prefer Shadow's 'real' stuff more.

Just asking 'cause a few years ago my mom went to visit some friends who had moved to Australia, and she smuggled in the aforementioned ingredients because they were not readily available. I'm glad you are able to make guacamole db!
But I don't know why you say avocados aren't American - my uncle has an acre of avocado trees - his dog loves to eat the ones that fall on the ground (fat dog).

Bullshit. Australia has more types of climates (desert, woodland, tropical, alpine, dry grassland, wetland, etc. etc.) than probably any other country on Earth - they can grow just about anything here. And the very numerous and large ethnic minorities here guarantee both supply and demand for fruits and vegetables from all 4 corners of the globe. I've been here since 1983, and avocados have been a favourite of mine since then (though I suppose I can only vouch for Melbourne). What's your next question? Do we have electricity? Who clears the kangaroos of the streets? What's it like living next to Switzerland? ;)


I meant that Avocados and tortillas weren't natively American. In retrospect, I suppose avocados may be a native in the southern states. But if so, then still, they are by no means exclusively American.

Sorry, don't mean to get so excited by fruit :) But nevertheless, here's a......

seriously useless fruit-related fact:
My Anthropology lecturer, who was an Indian Malaysian, told me this:
did you know that the primary type of banana consumed in USA and Australia is the "chikita" banana. This was a relatively unknown banana before the 20s, but became the primary banana on the market due to a chain of economic/political related events - which included strong marketing pressure by Hollywood producers which 'pushed' the chikita banana in musicals with that woman who had a hat made out of fruit and kept singing about chikita bananas (can't remember her name, dammit). Due to that, and other factors, Chikita bananas all but monopolised the market. In Malaysia, on the other hand, they have over 40 types of bananas.

Omnitarian 30th July 2002 18:50

I found those sprites somewhere, It was a really long time ago. I myself am a seasoned spritesmith, however. I even had a sprite site. If I could only remember the url.. www.omnisvgsprites.cjb.net which seems to be dead. Ah well. You can still DL all of them from my stash.

Why did you get so hostile? I can understand why trunks did, since his thread was hijacked, but really, I never called Australia a 'so-called "developed nation" ' - sorry if I was exploring cultural similarities and differences. And by the way, the story about my mom bringing in the fixin's for mexican food is not "Bullshit" - and the friends she visited are near Surfer's Paradise (north of Sydney), which, if my European (;)) geography is correct, is way the heck on the other side of the continent. We went to Michigan one time to visit relatives, and we did the same thing (brought tortillas and avocados), so being on the same continent does not guarantee that all things are available in all places. (Oh, crap, now the Michigan people are going to be mad :D).

So, wanna shake and be friends?:)

they are probably bootlegs. getting clearence for all the samples would be a nightmare for a record label. i think that the original cds were only sold at the actual live events, not sure tho.

i've not heard his new album yet. i liked Endtroducing a lot, and his remixes and the UNKLE stuff is pretty good.

have you heard the Bombay The Hard Way album? that might be worth a download, it's basically lots of re-mastered Bollywood filmscores, with drum tracks added by Shadow and Automator. (heh, it's better than it sounds).

sometimes i find Brainfreeze/Product Placement can be frustrating cos the snippets of tracks are so short. i mean it's criminal cutting off California Soul (and many others) like that! and scratching up such rare vinyl! :eek:
i guess that is the point though - vinyl destruction. :blah:

what i love about them is the sheer skill of the mixing, and the fact that they are recorded live using only 7" records. i love it when they have two copies of a song and they can seemlessly drag one back, just playing the intro. the more you hear it the more tricknology you can pick out. quality. :up:
