First time I have seen visor reflections actually add to a graphic.

Happy holidays

Review: Being a captain has always been a special moment for a player. They earned the respect of the team and deemed fit to lead. This graphic has all the right elements to express that feeling. The player looks pumped and looks well cut and positioned. You can't miss the text as it stands out bigtime. I think Helen Keller could read that. I can only find a couple of things that might have been changed. The background is a bit dark. I know there is a picture there but a little lighter would have been nice. The font could have been almost anything that had a bit of flare to it. I do like the back glow to the text. Overall this is a great take on becoming a captain. 9/10

Review: I really like graphics that use fewer elements but executed well compared to multiple layered graphics that are thrown together. This one is a very pleasant graphic to look at. The effects with the shadowing and super cool darkened cityscape is a notch above the rest. Your use of 3D on the logo and text looks really good and you don't have to look hard to find the focal point of the graphic. I really like the font you used. It works well with the offset and zero fill. Great job that was made in a proper way. 9/10

God it is fun to be in the off season with a non playoff team. It seems like the days go by really fast but the weeks take forever. Don't get me wrong, I knew we would be here as Moscow is in the tail end of a rebuild. I think next season we might even have a few strong string of wins. I am very excited to play with the talent we have and will have. Just, for the love of God, get me through this off season. I know once the playoffs are over, the league flips the switch and shit gets crazy. Before you know it, you are playing in the next season. I want to get there without the boredom of the early off season. It will never change. I spend less time looking at the forum and I am sure others are enjoying the break as well. When it comes time to play, we will be there ready to play. I hope everyone has a happy holiday season, however you celebrate it. Stay safe. Word count: 179

Hi

Presser for the week of 12/24 1. What do you think about the playoffs. Doesn't look like the regular season is any indicator. 2. Who do you think will be in the finals? 3. What do you see that needs to be changed on our team? 4. We have some really good players that should develope into a contender. How soon will that be? 5. Did you buy yourself a xmas present yet? I bought a kitchen drain. 6. Out of all the previews of upcoming video games, does GTA 6 standout to you?

Review: Very nice artwork. This style really impresses me. You did just about everything right and the results are brilliant. It's not easy coming up with new ideas when it comes to graphics but you pulled a great design out of your bag of designs and ran with it. Great looking render with a really nice logo sway. The background really compliments the render as well and doesn't take away from it. The text is unique and the corner boxes really makes this graphic stand out, in a good way. Great job 9/10

Review: You are singing my song with this style of graphic. I think you did a fine job with this project. Photomanipulation doesn't become easier until you do a few hundred and learn some of the tricks. I would say all in all you portrayed your concept just fine. Blend modes are you friend when doing this style. Also masking is a big part of the process. Stick with this style and you will make some very good graphics in no time. It has good balance and I am impressed with the attempt. Text looks to fit in well with the rest of the graphic. Great job, do more. 9/10

The final game was played and of course the Moscow Menace finished near the very bottom of the league, as expected. Rebuilds are not all that fun really but the reward comes with sticking with it and seeing of all the new players and plans work as intended. I have my concerns going into next season with the influx of players but I am sure the GM will handle the playtime properly. We do have a much brighter future, I am not sure how we are all going to play together but I will cross that bridge when I get there. Looking back at the five years I have been in the league. I can say it has changed a lot. I am on my fourth player and am happy Gunner is following the same path as Merrick, Torq and LeGrande did. Work hard, fight for ice time and do your best. I had some really good times with all my players. Seattle was a team that really set the standard for me. Malmo hands down was the most active and for sure the most fun with the roster we had. Even though I had concerns of the experience level Kaleeb had, that was put to bed fairly fast once I got to know him more and his thought process. I will remember that team and the players we had. Moscow is got to be the most organized locker room I have been in. Kudos to Spartan for setting up things in there the way they are. Unfortunately that doesn't mean it's the most active with the players but tons of alumni are very active. Gunner won Rookie of the Year. I thought he had a good shot at it to be honest. It was up to the team to set him up in the position he was made for, and Spartan did, reluctantly. I am not sure of Gunner's future at this point. I am going to go into the next season with high expectations and will work hard to meet the bar I have set. I am sure of one thing. Gunner is in control of his own future. Word count: 361

Presser for the week ending 12/17 1. Who do you believe should be our team MVP this season? 2. What team do you remember beating this season? 3. If you celabrate Christmas, what's the top thing you would want? 4. With the playoffs coming up, do you see any upsets going to happen? 5. Do you like Gladiator movies? 6. Do you have a big feast for Christmas dinner?
