Oh dear god, no... You are still doing it, taking things seriously that aren't meant to. That is one face of humor.
The guy on the last page just used the word "nazi" because that's probably the first thing that comes to his mind thinking about unfair(in his view) restrictions. Is that so hard to emphatise in?
You don't need a tutorial for everything, that will just make your edits look like everyone elses.
Not very important but I use two extra shapes. The one is a perfect circle to transform the shape for blurring, the other one is a copy of the original shape of the selection to transform it back.
You forgot to mention that this excact method only works for side views. For blurring wheels from a different angle that tutorial is just half the truth.
Of course that is because it is well known around the world that Germans lost their humor if they ever had such.
That's pretty weird. You know the details look almost photorealistic but as a whole the face looks not much like Mr. Laurie. People are the hardest things to draw I guess.
It could be done with another tag in the file name. Say if it's called XFR_w_skin.jpg it would allow to use information of the file for the windows, if you'd rename to XFR_skin.jpg it would show clean windows.
This way old skins wouldn't be effected by the change.
