I read this on your website :



So you want know a little about me. Okay I am 14 years old I love l3d and 2d / flash. I am going to be 15 in Feb. I currently am a part time employe and love my job. I don like school And I am not going to go to college.


Ok, you're half my age and it's not up to me to tell you what to do!?! (definetly not at your age), but believe me, college will be the best time of your life! You can make bad choices in life, sometimes it's ok and you can solve them, don't make this one, you will regret it....:P

[undersketched]

I'm 22 and looking at going "back" to school. I want more college myself. Im lookin into a new school this time. Learned a ton at my last one.
Trust me though. Your mind will change as you get older as does school. It gets better, you get to choose what you want to learn and lessons get way more in depth. To the point they are actually interesting and not just busy work.

[DADDYGOODY]

Well first off please dont swear at me and I will not be going to college I hate school since they day I started.

[just_nick]

Everybody knows that high school sucks! They make you learn all the stuff you dont want, just in case. But once you will go to college, you can only study a couple of subjects related to your future profession! Plus, get to meet a lot of new people and you will have the party time of your life!

Well, let me put my 2 cents worth in here .... I dropped out of school in the 9th grade, and I'm here to tell you - don't be lazy and give up!

I have regreted dropping out for years. It totally screwed with me finding any kind of decent work, and I wish every day I had stayed and got my diploma and went on to college.

Not telling you what to do, but you should remember you're just a kid and I'm 43 years old ---- honestly I think you can believe me.

:D

The site looks ok, but it still needs a lot of work. You say you love 3D right? i see no 3D on your website. When u go to a designers site you should get a feel for what they do in graphics. Again, i see no 3D there, just some bevel effects (screams amateur!).

Sorry if it seems harsh, but its how i see it.

Dude, at your age you should be more grown up about this area. Sure, at 12 thats to be expected, but at 15? no way. Being a typical kid at 12 i couldnt wait till 5th year came so i could drop out. Well, at 14 i decided life would be a whole lot sweeter if i pulled my ass out of bed every morning and became educated.

Well, i stayed on till the very end of high school and walked away with impressive grades. With those grades i was accepted with open arms at the world wide renown University (Paisley University). Im studying multimedia systems and it kicks ass so much.

After four years of fun and interesting work, ill try my hand in a fun, well paid job. I have my future sorted. What about you? you going to start your working life at 15 and work in burger kind for 20 years?

Trust me, its all worth it (school, uni and college that is)

Well said, Kris ..... :)

first off, let me tell you about my experience.
on my first day at college, i met 30 other people who i still know as really good friends. i am not an outgoing person.
i didn't really have more than about 4 classes in a day, until last year, when i had a few solid packed out days.
in first year, i never had more than 2 a day.
i have never had a full week on my timetable. that is, i have always had a 3 day weekend in my timetable.
i saw more movies, played more videogames, went to more theme parks and had more time off than i've ever had in the rest of my entire life so far, and i imagine that it will be a while until i get a similar opportunity. spare time has a whole new level of meaning.
one word: parties
before, i wasn't, but now i can say; i am a designer.
i could just as easily say; i am a 3d animator

i've just finished the australian college equivalent a few months ago.
if it was anything like my school, i would never have gone anywhere within a mile of the place.
but it's not.
i met my best friend there. i learnt a bunch of really fun and cool stuff there (such as intelligent rooms, which are physical rooms that think for themselves, and move furniture around, change lights etc. we got to make one!)
i learnt everything i know about 3D there, including the theory, which basically means i'm comfortable in any 3D program even though i've only ever seen and used two of them.
i got to "study" really cool subjects, such as web design, chinese cinema, script writing and directing for the screen, and design for the virtual environment. believe me, i use study as loosely as i can. not one of those courses was ever dull. there are similarly interesting subjects in every field.
just by going to college, you will have an edge on every other job applicant you come up against, ever, no matter what you actually did at college. it's like the difference between seeing a movie on your tv at home, and seeing it on the big screen. in employer's eyes, one is good, but the other is much better.
if you don't like any of these options, study overseas. that is one experience you will never forget.

if you don't go to college straightaway (here in australia, you can opt to have a year off between school and university. i don't know if that is an option there or not, but lets say it is)
or after your year off, it is stacks harder to get a degree. bundles. masses.
you might be thinking, "big deal, it's just a bit of paper", but the stuff i learnt in my last 3 years means that i'm already outdo-ing other people from my school who didn't go to university (and i don't even have the bit of paper yet). the gap will only get bigger from here on.

i know this is an essay and a half, but if you have the opportunity, take it. i cannot stress this enough.

Well everyone I am soory but my mind is made up I refuse to go to college. no offense iff you have friends but Friends are a waste of time but working making money will help me to provide for a family when I have one. Friends inless im friends with bill gates canhelp you out finacialy but hard work can so I will put all my abilitys to work instead of college. I mean my dad never went to college and he made out just fine. pepole who go to college dont always get what you need to become something great.

[markLearst]

You're exatly right, not everyone is for college, but if you plan to start a career in the 3D realm you better jump all over college. If you have passion for what you do and you plan on excelling past your peers. Your passion will lead you to higher education.

[DADDYGOODY]

Well like I said I think with out a shadow of doubt I can make it just fine with not going to college I belive the lord will help me get through any financial needs I will have as long as I am faithful to him and do what he commands me to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Phil_The_Rodent]

Guys, he's 14. He's got a lot of time to change his mind. Myself, I took the first opportunity I got to get rid of school. Jumped out as early as possible, and started washing dishes for a living.

Yep, then I went back. ;) It's not for everyone, but it's really up to him to decide. University and college were the most amazing amazing years of my life so far, but if he wants to do dishes or maybe try to do something freelance against the entire competition that DID go to college/university, then power and much luck to him...

Now back to the website?

I'd definitely have another look at both your content and type treatment. There's some typographical errors and EEK SPELLING MISTAKES in there, and it's inconsistent everywhere.

[DADDYGOODY]

Okay I am going to redo my site as soon as I have some free time on my hands. But right now I am modeling diff animals and stuff.

[MorphRC]

Kool Title Pic. 3DS or Bryce?

[w@rtistic]

hello daddy.
im a huge fan of 3d works.and what im missing on your site is 3d.:D
also maybe reconsider your turtorials.
cause personaly i "hate" to download things without even seeing what the result will be. so maybe make it online.
or show a pic of the end result
good luck :)

[Viika]

looking good, only thing i don't like is the oh so poisonous shade of green. but that's just a matter of personal taste :)

[roogog]

Agree with the above comments about the site, needs some work.
On the Gallery page do something about the size of your thumbs....one was 331k!!! for a thumbnail!!! Another 190K. For thumbs you looking at 5-10k if poss.
Pages that take that long to load won't get many views. Always optimise your graphics with dial-up users in mind.

As for school...do what you want.

[zo14Design]

Like your stuff stuff... looks to me like your using Terragen.. love that prog

and then lightwave not much of a fan or it but like your dude bug thingy. keep up the good work :P
