Okay; thanks. Contact me by e-mail at itsstevensgrandma@cox.net; I don't think I can send you jpegs from here! (You'll enjoy this!)

That's what I can expect? School-aged members cracking jokes at the whole thing?! ( --- And Isupposedly have "the wrong attitude"?!

Someone please get back to me whose profile doesn't say "student" and who is genuinely connected with the industry!

:) Just suppose, for the sake of argument, that I don't "turn out to be a 'nutjob'" and that the work has as much merit as I think it does. You --- and whoever it is that you know --- would be missing out, for one thing. Secondly, you will have been rude for no apparent reason, except to "sound ...

:? What you're saying, then, is that you do know people, "at the next level up", who you could show something --- but you won't --- because, sight-unseen, you're "sure it's like everybody else's who thinks they 'have something'"? --- Because if that's the case, that's a little rude. (You could at ...

:) Do you want Italics used for emphasis, then, Ben? The first of your moderators to respond gave me the information that, on this site, bold is used "to make a point" and italics, only for book titles.

Secondly, one of the other two moderators had worded their response as though the only reason ...

:D What I could do for you, if you'd be amenable to it, would be to e-mail you a generous sampling of my jpegs for "Journey to Marry the Princess" , so that, for starters, you'd be able to see what I'm talking about, in the way of art and illustration --- since, per your profile, that's what you're ...

:P Very funny, Ben! :P Upset? No --- I took it as a complaint --- so I explained why I had formatted that way.

My skin is far from thin ; I've been in telemarketing on and off, for the last ten years. :D Getting hung up on about 200 times in a shift --- thickens you, quite nicely !!

In fact, I'm ...

:P Aw, come on !

You're the one who came across like you thought I had used an incorrect font intentionally , for whatever reason! --- And you came across sounding like someone whom I had aked for a favor --- so I let you know that, yes, I have a pretty big one that I'd like to have at least a ...

[moderator's note: this discussion was split off into it's own thread from this one: http://www.animated-news.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2075 ]

Well --- you talked about "getting off on the wrong foot". People can worry about "getting off on the wrong foot" --- with a boss , on a new job . There's ...

All you would have to have done was explain to me, since I obviously missed that information, that the bold is supposed to be used for emphasis and the italic for titles. You didn't need to present it in the form of a complaint. --- And I'm really not trying to "get off" on "any foot" with anyone ...

If you don't want bold text used --- you shouldn't even offer the option. Personally, I just thought the bold, large text would be more easily readable --- and I'd use italics for emphasis. Thanks for your --- complaint

I actually did know that about the "South Park" voices (--- and let's not leave out "Salty Balls", himself, Isaac Hayes!) Those two boys (Matt and Trey) are another example of voice-over versatility.) As a former student of Developmental Psych, the big kick I get out of "South Park" is that it's ...

:lol: Nice one, George! Personally, though, WB lost me, back when Mel Blanc died. (Now there was a guy who knew versatility in voice-overs!) There's so much else out there for children, now: more of Disney; PBS kids and PBS Kids Sprout; Nickelodeon. 3D animation has done some beautiful work, in ...

8) My personal faves would include Robin Williams, Eddie Murphy and Jon Lovitt --- and let's not leave out the entire voice-over crew of "South Park"; to anyone who follows the show, those people are celebrities, in and of themselves! I have a grandson just over two years old, so I watch quite a lot ...
