Cool shieldplate concept.

Personally I would make that sign more \'one\' with the plate by making it a bumpmap or a true displacement map and then add one accent color. I\'d prefer red.

I wouldn\'t really consider Linkin Park emo, but that picture gives a basic idea of what Emo is.

It\'s kinda like this:

Punk: F*ck the government, I\'m rebellious!

Emo Punk: F*ck my girlfriend, I\'m going to go cry into my pillow!

Linkin Park is so NOT emo.

Emo = Dashboard Confessional, Something Corporate, Daphne Loves Derby, etc.

Emo is mainly about relationships with girls.

Ok, so basically it\'s categorizing the cry babies who\'re trying to act tough, but cry anyway ?

I don\'t really recognize that in MP\'s creation....

I know it\'s not emo but it\'s the only emo-like image i have in my funny folder, except this

Well essentially emo is short for \'emotional\'. Extending from musical tastes, its become this entire subculture.

Here\'s a small example

(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fbieniosek.com%2Fgallery%2Falbums%2Falbum36%2Femo.sized.gif&hash=5f8aca4b2a21997064e76adcdb70fa7944122c3a)

Agreed.

Post by: Knotter8 on May 19, 2005, 02:48:54 PM
omg, are there actual magazines in existence which dictate such youth sub cultures ?

In a way it is exactly like "mom\'s etiquette book" or  

little boxes (http://ingeb.org/songs/littlebo.html)

It\'s the categorizing mentality, ending up in boxes anyway. Ppl should be trained more to think "outside of the box".

There is no such thing as "emo" music.


They are all just rock bands.


The term "emo" was invented to stereotype the people that listen to a certain kind of rock.


That\'s it.

Eric Clapton - Wonderful Tonight.

About a \'relationship with a girl\'

Eric Clapton, man hes so emo, its the way he uses emotion in his songs - you could say he feeds of his emotion, oh wait one second i have just realised something does all music not come from some sort of emotion? could humans make music without emotion? no they couldn\'t therefore everything is emo according to people who even try and use that term :rolleyes:

No dumbass, its normally about failing relationships with girls. Its also incorporated within the punk rock genre. Country and R&B music isn\'t emo.

There\'s also \'screamo\'. (Senses Fail, My Chemical Romance, The Used, Silverstein, etc.)

There are no set definitions, people define emo in their own ways.

The word emo means emotional. I hate it when people try to act like "emo" is a whole new word. It\'s been around for a long time, it\'s just that now everybody uses it. It can be applied to anything.

Where did you get the shield shape from? I\'ve been looking for a shape like that for something I\'m doing. I\'ve tried searching google and nothing quite seemed to match what I wanted. That\'s the closest I\'ve seen.

Well, I was hinting MPtheory towards a style like this :

(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nlgaming.com%2Fgames%2F645%2Flogo%2Flogo.jpg&hash=02aa22db2a163bd01a058441ccab8bf9336422bf)

Of course, if he wants to keep it the way he has it now that\'s good too.

btw. this was a funny movie clip though on what \' is emo \' :laughing:  We didn\'t have that kind of scrutinizing of any subcultures here in Europe in my high schooltime (1991 - 1996) or maybe I\'m just from another planet...

what = emo videoclip (http://www.somethingdirectory.com/main_emo.htm)

Im not a big fan of red. I use it at work all the time, but I don\'t use it in personal artwork very often.

I have craploads of vector art.  But I make alot of borders and sheilds myself.  I just use a vector based program called Signlab, then I export my stuff as an EPS and open it in photoshop.  Using vectors gives you nice crisp,  clean edges.

one package is about $500 each, but you can get it in segments.. I think you can get a small pack for about $150 - $99.  Or you can just mooch and ask if I have a file I could send you.

That is some pretty funny stuff.



I don\'t generalize music the way most people do.

Rock bands are rock bands.

Metal bands are metal bands.

Rap is rap.


What the hell is screamo? An "emo" band that screams? That\'s the stupidest shit I\'ve ever heard.


So, a metal band that sings I can call Singo?
