Community Picks

[Yathosho]

think we should keep the selection period running for some time, will contact those lazy bastards from devart to participate

[UnConeD]

I just picked 2 weeks as a general time span. There's no real rush on this, but still, voting also has to be done.

Let's say May 7th as final selection deadline. I will put up the vote then.

[TomyLobo]

My nominations for the Community Picks:

Artist - Pack - Preset
Montana - Mono AVS 6 - Petalpusher
Zamuz - Visions III - Energy
Zevensoft - AVSPack4 - Ocean4
fragmer - BuggyAVS-II - particles-II
Shock Value - Total Immersion - Architectural Design

[Yathosho]

you forgot to attach the presets

[TomyLobo]

erm oops yes you're right
was still collecting the bmps and stuff
(quite a lot of them... thanks fragmer )

[Yathosho]

was also wondering, if architectural design preset is something meant for the end-consumer. i like it a lot, but it's nothing for viewing pleasure only.

[UnConeD]

The only thing that bugs me about architectural design is that most of the help is inside the comments. There should be a mention of holding 'h' for help on the first screen.

Anyway, voting will decide :P.

[TomyLobo]

i picked AD because i think it's very good at showing off AVS's new capabilities

[Yathosho]

true about that, maybe i misunderstood the purpose of the pack

[jheriko]

Surely the purpose of the pack is the purpose that the whole community gives it? If everyone contributes what *they* want then we will end up with a good representation of the community's favorite presets, for whatever reason they are considered so great.

[duo]

my picks:

zamuz - spiritual
tuggummi - über designers.com
nemo - building blocks
duo vs unconed - hash the planet
el-vis - hubble 02

[Pixelcraft]

Technicals are of course allowed, but remember that this pack will be intended for newbies who don't care about lines of code, but visual and soundresponsive quality

Well I'm too lazy too read the rest of these two pages so I don't know if anyone mentioned me at all (probably not), But that kinda sounds like my kind of presets.... I think something like "celesetial wind" would fall into that category.

But if I'm the only one who thinks that I'll shut up

[Shock Value]

Here's a slightly improved version of Architectural Design with the text UnConeD suggested and a couple of extra reminders in the Top Down Designer. Hopefully this should point non-AVSers in the right direction if this preset gets voted in. (The zip also contains the AddBorders APE and two images that are all needed to view the preset correctly.)

Now to figure out what my five picks will be...

[OnionRingOfDoom]

God that was hard!

My picks would have to be these:

> Tuggummi - Warped
> Evilrice - Cleanroom (full moon remix)
> s_kupers - alpha ray damage
> Zamuz - back to cursor (in-depth rmx)
> UnConeD - Fiber Optics

[UnConeD]

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.

ffs.

[framesofreality]

As you can see, this selection is pretty special, because only one preset is an original one,the others are remixes.
It seemed really hard to select, but after i read the post
i found most of my favs already submitted ,that made the process a LOT easier .

So my five favourites are :

>>AVS-King vs. Evilrice : High Tech ( Shards of Glass mix)
>>Skupers vs. Degnic : Spirit Realm (Plasmoid remix)
>>El-Vis : VR26 (orb)
>>Nemo vs. El-vis : Dreamtime 2 remix
>>Acid vs. Tuggummi : Twitchy Liquid Shit (mixing plastics)

mo oldskul

[Shock Value]

My picks:

fsk - digital artist
shock value - source of power (I had to include one of mine )
skupers - dual flow
tuggummi - multiple orgasms
zamuz meets tuggummi - fat balls (wallpaper wannabe candy theme)

It's hard to define what "best" is or even what my favorites are, but I think these presets represent various styles of AVS well.

[TomyLobo]

i'm trying to collect the presets you pick but it's not that easy... many times, bitmaps are missing please remember to submit your picks "including all required support files (bitmaps and such)"

[NemoOrange]

tuomas - wired (still spellbinding after all these years)
yathosho - sakura (this pack will need some style!)
tonic - lumping (I feel like Tonic deserves some mention)
duo - warm freeform (simple & lovely)
fsk - zvezda (all of Pickin Dim 3 should be included as far as I'm concerned)

[TomyLobo]

erm you've got 6 presets in your zip

[NemoOrange]

gah, thanks for the heads up. Sorry, had to drop the el-vis pick for fsk.

[vanish the dude]

Well, my picks:
01 hf - lush (i really like it, simple, but so cool)
02 amphirion - b.p.g.e.f. - echleon track rmx by vanish
03 nemoorange - surfacing 8 - my way to the garden rmx by vanish
(well, myself)
04 p-k - evil green thing (cool bumpy thingy)
05 tuggummi - fat balls - zamuz's remix (sweeeeet)

[TomyLobo]

vanish, one of your files is not a .avs file

[Synth-C]

My picks:

Zxe - Into The Last Drop
Synth-C - The Construct (v1.2)
Synth-C - Ameta
Synth-C - Rollercoaster Dreams (Amphirion Remixed)
NemoOrange - Clockwork

[Synth-C]

Damn, forgot to attach.

[blazer1504]

duo - alienated (evilrice trinity tron remix) (awesome remix imo)

zamuz - bing bang (first I picked 'rough n smooth' from zamuz but I think this got better response..)

nemoorange - the light of speed (first thought of building blocks but since it's mentioned already...still a fab preset)

tuggummi - shiny metal curves (so many great presets from tug.. I decided to stick with this, hypersexy and smooth preset)

unconed - silk strings (very responsive + looks very good)
