Hey math I'm quite familiar with!! very nice entry GL!!!

yea boi!!! thats what im sprayin!!

Thanks for the funny comments guys

"learned math"

The British English way of the past tense word learn is learnt. The American English way of the past tense word learn is learned.

Is the British version of math spelled with an S?

Yes it is.. sorry.. didnt know this was an english lesson, thought it was Maths..and sorry i was not schooled in America...

No, this is a lesson in sarcasm and light fun.

Actually thought it was a photo competition, my bad

No, no Author you've got it all wrong! This is a site where you post photos so that we can dissect them and find new things to fight like adolescents over Actually I just thought of something, Lamantine is one of the few actual adolescents on here, yet he never joins in on our ridiculous quibbles, hmmm.....

I'm sorry, I do not know what I have done to deserve your attention. And I don't find your comments constructive at all.

Wow Author, thank you ever so much for really driving my point home! For your information, I was just trying to joke around with you. I could tell you were getting upset and I was trying to make light of the situation. If these are the least constructive comments you ever get then consider yourself very lucky!

If you would prefer criticism to playful banter then here you go.

The cards aren't in focus, the black of the pips and of the chips is too washed out, but because you chose the background that you did there is no way to increase the black levels to an acceptable range without losing the definition of the chip edges, and there is too much empty space to the right of the cards, you should have added more so that it looked intentional or cropped it tighter so that it doesn't look so sloppy.

Actually no Locksmagic.
I download this photo & i increase contrast 2 in PS & the chips looks very good (because of their position the light source creates a "border" around them on the spot that chips&background meet,so increasing contrast does the job with out "loosing "the shape of the chips).As for the focus,we don't know what author shoots with so the photo might just be very "low" resolution.
The photo uses the rule of thirds pretty good imho.Placing it "dead center" it would be very "flat".
But then you might be right & i might be wrong.
Just speaking out my mind as everybody else!
Btw author i play poker too (on FB,not with real money)

I just did the same karaflazz and you are correct boosting the contrast +2 does not in fact lose the edge detail, however only adding +2 does not bring the black of the pips anywhere near the level it needs to be so that is kind of a moot point.

Anything else is a matter of opinion and I was just voicing mine.

But the real point I was trying to make was that people are way to damn sensitive on this site, this is supposed to be a community where artists of all levels can come together to share, to learn, and to have fun. But you know what, that can't seem to happen because we all have to be so juvenile and petty. I did not mean for my statements to come across as offensive, but the Author decided to take offense to them anyway, instead of asking what I was implying they immediately got snippy. Now I could see taking that view if I constantly picked at this person but I don't, actually quite the opposite, I've only ever commented on one of this person's entries and it was a positive comment. People need to remember that there is a lot of ways comments can be misunderstood, we are dealing with a non verbal form of communication here where inflection and body language can't be observed, not to mention the obvious language barriers. So before people fly off the handle and start being deliberately rude, maybe we could act like adults and sit back and think about what was said for a minute before jumping to conclusions!

Now all that being said, Author I apologize if I offended you in any way, that certainly was not my intent. When I see a tense situation I try and insert humor as a way to lighten things up, obviously you misunderstood that. But next time ask first, before you throw up your defenses, then situations like this can easily be avoided.

I agree with you my friend
Lets all calm down a bit!

sooooooooooo... ya say the plural of "math" in British English is "Maths?"

Gotta love American ignorance. Maths is the common plural of math in "British" english.
Nice picture Author.

I really wish I'm invited to the wedding (yes I know I'm evil and I must be destroyed.. but throw me a bone here LOL)

Is there ever enough?

There is, at least in means of coins. I've yet to meet a person who'd enjoy carrying several pounds worth of coins.

For some reason, I really like this image. The feeling it gives is really nice, nyaa.

Those gold coins are actually dollars and yes, I had enough. These machines give these back when you insert the big bills. I WISH I had several pounds of these!

Every time I pull out change to ride a commuter train, I gotta quickly add it up and see if I have enough. Daily math, simply displayed. And yes Kyricom, there is never enough.

I'd have several pounds of Euro, I don't think those would be any help to you, though. The pile has just gotten bigger and bigger throughout the years. Just from the coins collected inside the pockets, wallet etc. which made them overly heavy and annoying.

well u have solve it? :P

Very funny and yes I think we all could relate once in awhile. GL!

I just passed my math exam! And i should say that it is realy great shot!

Very nice and funny.Good luck.

Don't really like the language (I'm a stick in the mud) but appreciate the sentiment. Just a tiny bit oof. Might be nice to have some clear teeth marks on the pencil

Agrees. You are a stick in the mud!

LOL! I love the broken pencil here, goes quite well with the words.
