1,000,000

This month shinybinary.com received its millionth visitor! I think a decent number of those would have gone there straight from here, so I just wanted to give a huge thank you to those that are among that number :]

It's been about 3 and a half years since I launched the site now. In the whole of 2004 when it started, the site managed the grand total of 18,000 or so visits. Last year it got 400,000 and has racked up abother 560,000 so far this year, using about 2.1 Terabytes of bandwidth in the process... and to think I only pay £5 a month hosting ;) Anyway cheers again and here's to the next mil.

Some far more interesting news is that Depthcore has released its 32nd pack (or whatever we're calling them now), Temple. To say it's the best so far doesn't do justice to some of the stunning work it contains. Jerico's piece in particular is guaranteed to make your eyes pop straight through your monitor. I'm disappointed I have had to much work to take part but hopefully will get the chance again in the near future. Go check it out, seriously. [link]

hello sir,
this is manuel from germany.
i just watched your recent work and i'm overwhelmed by this fluid water guy.
when i saw the tutorial about it one question came to my mind, where did you get this great water splashes from?
i searched for long time in the internet but i found nothing.
please can you help me to find some watersplashes or maybe post me a link or the stocks, that you used in your picture.

yours faithfully manuel.

by the way, sorry for my bad english

Your AMAZING, AMAZING, AMAZING!
Did you just keep pushing yourself to do better and better each time? Playing around with photoshop? Did you ever do any tutorials?
How did you get SO good and how long did it take you to be where you are now?
I want to be really good with photoshop and to portray what i see in my head, but I can never do the best in photoshop.. I get half way there and than I get stuck.
Do you have any tutorials you posted anywhere?
