So, I've decided that I wanna start making some tutorials, and maybe expand on to making and selling some programs and plugins and whatnot, but I need a cool name. I like Latin, and the way it sounds and stuff, and I was doing a little research(well, translation of random words I was coming up with), and I came up with Prolixus.
And I was like "THATS IT! THATS THE NAME I'M GONNA USE!". So I looked up to see if anybody was using it already, so I went to prolixus.com, and it turns out Prolixus is a male enhancement drug

I still am tempted to use it anyway, cuz it sounds cool... and tutorials will be so good you'll pop a boner.
So what you guys think? Should I use it anyway? You have any other suggestions? Maybe I'll go look for some more cool words and edit my post if I find any?

But back on topic, you should make it RockBomb Industries, or Shell Shocked Inc.

Does RockBomb actually sound cool?

I came up with that like 6 years ago, and theres actually a backstory to it. But I was signing up for this site and I couldn't think of anything, so I decided to use that. Then I just started using that as my screen name for a bunch of stuff.

To me, it really doesn't sound that cool. But then again, I've seen it every day for the past 4 or 5 years of my life


Edit: How about Ausus? Sounds decent and is aesthetically pleasing.

Really?
I have a story about my name as well! I've had it for about 3-4 years now, still like it. That's why I named "my company" Sprinkles, Inc. Which may change to Sprinkles Industries, or something else.

Please tell. Also I edited my last post, read it

Well here's the backstory of "RockBomb" if anyone is interested...

So my friends and I constantly got into trouble in middle school, and were known as kinda the rebels of the town (there was only like 400 people in the whole school system, and it was a very 'country' town. At the time, I wore Tripp pants and concert t-shirts with a mohawk to top it all off, and my friends dressed similar, but a little more gangsta), so anyway, we were classified as the rebellious group, even though we didn't do all that much to get into trouble.

As time went on, people started referring to us as a gang. And at first it was kind of offending, but then it started getting really funny. So me and this girl were like "Hey, we should come up with a name for this 'gang' we're in", so we spent a class period coming up with stuff and decided on 'The Bomb Squad'. During my next period, I was like... lets make this name ridiculously gangsta (keep in mind we were pretty much mocking gangs while doing this all), so I suggested we chagne it to 'Da Bomb Skwad', which stuck and thats what we used.

Sometime in the next day or two, we decided we needed gang names, and we spent a day or two coming up with those. 'Peace potty' 'kitty' and 'white JZ' were some of my friends, and I got named 'Woofy', because I always used to bark like a dog in the middle of class (sounds stupid now, but it was funny at the time).

Shortly after, we decided that the names needed to match the gang name, and that we should change our names accordingly. 'peace potty' changed her name to 'f-bomb' (she dropped the f-bomb all the time), kitty to 'ice bomb' (he always wore a diamond bling bling necklace), we stopped hanging out with 'white JZ' for a while so he didn't get a new name, and I was appointed 'rock bomb' (because I was the rocker/metalhead amongst our group).

And that ladies (doubt there are any on the internet) and gentlemen, is how 'rockbomb' came to be...

Woah, this truck (should be called trains instead of trucks) is getting derailed quickly.

int main()

bool backOnSubject = true;
if backOnSubject
{
cout << "This thread is now back on subject."
}
else

Clearly you are full of lies. You can't have a period if you're not a lady and you are obviously on the internet.

I'd say the second, the first is a lot like the Motherboard company and the third sounds a little... meh.

Ah, it does look a lot like Asus... the pronunciation would be completely different though Asus is like 'ay''soos', and Ausus would be like 'Aw''sus'. But still, especially since I'll be doing programming and whatnot, they are indeed too similar.


Osius would be pronounced probably exactly as you'd read it 'oh''sigh''us'. I kinda like that one as well.

Scaber - 'scay''bur', even though it doesn't sound very good, I still like it for some reason. Reminds me of both the word saber, and scarab... which are both pretty cool, imo. I think aesthetically it looks pretty cool, but verbally it doesn't sound that great

Is that the boy's real head?

Doesn't look it.

And yes, spend a bit of time making it look nice.
2 minutes with the clone brush in photoshop,and you could've erased the whole shadow. Then but a fake one in its place, that faded away when the head shattered.

Better yet, you could have made the boy and the background 2 different layers. Then put a light in and the shattered pieces would have all there own shadows.

Yeah its his real head. I just did a quick mask in Photoshop and removed his head, then cloned the brick in the background, then saved that and finally saved his head as a transparent png.
