What's your legacy?

[Steinmetz]

When you die what will people remember you for?
I hope to be known in New Zealand as one of the great portrait painters of our country. When I paint with oils that's always what motivates me.
What's your claim to fame after death? It really comes down to the fact that you want to be someone or not.

[Fellah.]

Might be a good idea to stop talking and start painting then:)

[Steinmetz]

I can talk the talk and walk the walk though, baby~
get back to the question though..

[hp]

haha agreed ^^ I used to talk a lot more than I actually worked. :^^:

I would like to be successful professionally of course, but I would like to be known for some sort of tutorial. There are some tutorials on the net that EVERYONE knows and follows...it'd be nice to have a basic claim to fame that also helps others on their own way to glory. I guess it sounds sort of sad, but as one of the many self-taught digital artists out there, it took a lot of work and patience...it only seems fair to give out some tips to the newbies.

[light]

I want ppl to make a thread about me on an art forum when I die.

[darth massacre]

To beat Flake at creating a bigger and better lensflare of course.

[johnny78]

hm.... one day I made a list of things I want to realise before I die:
1) publish my own comic or comic series
2) make a SF-movie
3) build a building

4) look back and be able to say:"I´ve never been afraid of accepting a challenge."

Well.... what´s life worth if you don´t have a dream? I think it´s better to try and fail than having never had the guts to do what you have to do.

[Magic Man]

I want to be known as the man who killed the world.

[Alday.J]

Agree :^^:

[sly's hand]

One fifty year old man will remember when I smashed an icecream cone into his face when he was a little boy. When it happens I will tell him " YOU REMEMBER ME FOREVER" and I gaurentee you he will tell the story "one day when I was a boy a man ran up to me and smashed my icecream into my FACE, then he told me YOU FUCKING REMEMBER ME FOREVER" but I did not say FUCKIN he added that to make the story more interesting more dynamic... HE Deserves to have icecream smashed in and around his eyes....

if that is not ok to do than I dont know what is, that will be my legacy...

Look up Dane Cook, cause I am not that funny, your thread's title reminded me of that :D.

[Taj]

I want to be known as the man who killed the world.
I want to be know as The Man Who Sold the World, or possibley one of The Superman. All The Madmen will question my sanity. Meanwhile I'll retire in Black Country Rock with my Saviour Machines.

[Flynn]

To have something proud to show my family :)
It will be a small humble studio, and maybe just maybe be as successfull as Cosgrove halls here in Manchester UK :)

I want to be the best animator be it one band or tag band :P

[Calle_]

Il kick jim jones off the highscore chart NP

[dfacto]

I don't plan on dying.

[Slash]

Im with hpslashluvr on this one, if nothing else, i'd like to be remembered for making a good tutorial that helped a lot of people. Being pretty much 100% self thaught, i have nothing but the deepest respect for those who given some of their precious time to share their knowledge with others. Without them i would know nothing about 2d/3d. (espescially not 3d!)

This is why im currently working on a thourough tutorial for zbrush, 3dstudio max and photoshop right now, to give something back to the awesome communities.

_______

on a sidenote.. hp slash luvr? wtf? :P

[Elwell]

Slash, I think Steinmetz's avatar is your legacy.

[Slash]

HAHAHA! Thats kinda sad.. :P And temporary. After 6 weeks or something its gone. :(

[Craig D]

Slash
the avatar might come down in a few weeks
but I at least will forever be gratefull to you as the man who almost
got Steinmetz to behave.

[Blue]

I want to design a game which will become a classic, like Mario, Sonic or Tetris. Even if its a board game, card game or whatnot. Something people can have fun with. :)

[Sady]

And why die? Why not just live forever?

[Blue]

Attaining eternal life would take your whole life's worth of work to achieve, presuming you are of that genius...but if you worked for 60 years (from age 20 to 80, lets say) and finally can live forever...what do you do now? You have an eternity to do whatever you like, and the only thing you ever wanted you have. No one picks up a new hobby after that kind of thing.

That actually seems more like a curse then blessing.

[aesir]

I dont really care about being remembered... I want to be considered badass while Im still alive. Not like I'll be able to enjoy the popularity when Im dead.

[SillyLing]

O_O

COMIC CREATOR. I want to create a comic series that will keep people laughing on thier end cause I'm SO good. =) So GOOD that people from the west and the east will read it and know my name. LYNN YANG. I want be world famous. Famous to design characters for video games cause I'm SO good.

That is my dream. HAHAHAHA.

Fear me humans!

[Sady]

Lodr Blue, attaining eternal life would take a very small fraction of my life actualy. :dur:
Also, I don´t have to pursue eternal life alone like a reclusive necromancer (tho that would be quite cool).

And the point of living forever is more out of curiosity rather than changing the world. Don´t you wanna see what other galaxies are like? Don´t you wanna know what the building block of the universe is? And what about ETs, Old Ones, God, whatever? Surely we will not know those things in the short spam of a human life.

[Marko Djurdjevic]

I wanna be known as the man who stopped Steinmetz, Magic Man and NoSeRider from posting on these boards.



I love open animosities.

That's a low blow. Just for that comment I'm gonna be waiting till you slip up them BAM I'll be all over you with my witty remarks and T-Dome know how.
And besides this thing with Slash isn't over yet. I always get even.

I'm a wild Stallion Marko, I can't be tamed.

and going back on topic, I'd like to think my legacy at CA.org was teaching you all to hate again.

[NoSeRider]

I'm trying to stop ask'n my pussy ass psycho babble questions.

[Blahm]

I'm trying to stop ask'n my pussy ass psycho babble questions.

stopping asking pussy ass questions is for pussies.:dad:

As for my legacy. Hmmmm..........If i cant leave a great one i will leave none at all.

[Slash]

You say you always get even steinmetz. Well, I'll be happy to go into the dome with you again, but you should really practice more than you post if you want to beat me. Because next time the stakes will be even higher.

It would be more fun to see Marko "tame" you tho. :P

Well, seeing how there is only so much one can squeeze into the brain, wouldn' it be more realitic to see that the longer you live, the less aware you will become of what you have lived? Its impossible to know exactly how many memories can be squeezed into a pristine brain, but we do know it has its limits. What if after 10,000 years, you forgot about what happened during years 400-600. Does this mean you, in some sense, never existed during this time?

My point being, if a human lives upwards 100 years (currently) under best conditions, how can you know the effects it will take on one who lives over 10,000+ years? It may actually be the single most tormenting feeling in existence, we are just unable to understand it since we are mortal.

But yea, my curiousity does poke me, but i doubt i could make myself "wait and see firsthand" on the spectacular changes that lie ahead.

Well, brain enhancements wouldn´t take too long. I bet that in 1000 years we can do some kind of upgrade. And forgeting the first thousand isn´t much realy. :teeth:

[Waffle_King]

I think I would like to achieve a great technical ability, and use my art to make others happy- to help them somehow... then I would like to die and be remembered by friends, and when they die, be forgotten.

Thats only if the human race survives that long, we'll probably blow ourselves up first. ;)

Careful, I'll masturbate into your coffee.

yummy, yummy

I remember the last M.Manson concert I went to. He pulled out his micro and pushed it into/beneath.. the hot pants of one his dancers, just like ass-fucking her life in front of the stadium. The funny thing was that when he looked down the crowd he seemed a bit confused, because none of us showed any reaction.

and now... back to the topic: As many of us are european, try harder to shock us :tihi: :devil:
