Nokturnel fury unleashed rar2/28/2023 ![]() ![]() It's epic, pompous, war-like with a bit of folk in the background, but the one that is close to battle scenery. This release is where Graveland's style and influences found it's place for good, characteristics that are present on two previous albums „Following the Voice of Blood” and „Immortal Pride”. First of all, this album somehow started a new chapter in band's history that remains up til now. It is very good that it happened this way, through these and not other songs.Ī lot have been already written about „Creed of Iron” but I couldn't help not to write my own few words about it because it's, without a doubt, an important release in Graveland discography. It is also a load of nostalgia, a return to the roots and a presentation of the new band and its capabilities. This release is a very accurate and successful return to those albums, that extraordinary time. The bygone fire of the first half of the 90s still burns in these works, you can still feel its flame. There have been specific changes, but the old atmosphere has remained. The band went through a baptism in fire both in concerts and in the studio, recording this album. Graveland started a new chapter in its musical journey and you can hear it. ![]() ![]() A masterpiece! A new spirit, a new quality, and strong, spacious sound were breathed into all the compositions from the album. When I started my adventure with Black Metal, this piece was a synonym of this art for me, the essence of the sound, the most accurate capture of the atmosphere associated with this music. Here we have "The Night of Fullmoon" - an incredibly atmospheric, reflecting the spirit of those days, "Hordes of Empire" and a song to which I will always have an undying sentiment - "The Gates to the Kingdom of Darkness" (the intro is amazing here). There are classics such as "Thousand Swords" or "Thurisaz", there is also a dark atmosphere from the demos and the first album. “Hour of Ragnarok” is another musical chapter in the history of the band, which proudly raises its head from the depths of the underground and its sound matches other bands with similar aesthetics and delights with its own individual character! Let the Ragnarok begin!įor this compilation only the pearls from the Black Metal period of Graveland's activity have been selected. I can safely say that this is the band's best material for many years. The album didn't disappoint me and I am glad that Graveland is still walking proud on its way and is still able to bring something new to its art, that was actually able to enchant the musical image of Ragnarok here. In the rest of it we can hear elements of "Creed of Iron", "Dawn of Iron Blades" or the last compilation of the band, where Rob started to introduce new elements to the sound of the group. We are, of course, talking about the musical layer and its overtone, about the atmosphere of this album. Probably never before did Graveland's music remind me so much of the works of Poleduris or Goldsmith in some places, which both men created for "The Thirteenth Warrior" and "Conan the Barbarian". The band sounds very powerful, melodic in some places, with even more pathos. Graveland's compositions started to have very nice and rich arrangements, reaching the next level of epicness. ![]() "Hour of Ragnarok" can be treated as the sum of the band's works to date and as a gate to a new chapter. Rob Darken's band continue to follow the path of epic pagan metal that has been their mark for years, sometimes also involving folk elements. ![]()

Inkscape for mac lower object2/28/2023 ![]() Then you have to click on a stop to select it. You have to be using the Gradient tool first. You can also apply the hexcode automatically to gradients. You can if you want to, but you don't have to. You don't have to type any RGB or hexcode, in any place in Inkscape. ![]() I don't know anything about Adobe products, so I have no idea what you're comparing Inkscape to. The hexcode is automatically entered for you. Take the HSL tab, and click anywhere on the L bar. Anywhere you click inside the triangle in the center of the wheel, it will enter the hexcode automatically for you. In the Fill and Stroke dialog, depending on which tab you use, you can click in the various elements and the hexcode is automatically entered. On Adobe Fireworks or Photoshop for instance, it pops up an hexadecimal palette then you choose. When you edit the color, and choose the start and stop colors, it is a bit less user-friendly to type RGB. This issue touches more when you apply gradient colors. I am not saying to compete with commercial products, it will not make any sense in fact, but, I think all should folow the mostly the same path in terms of "user-friendliness".Īli2013 wrote:Exactly, the Fill and Stroke should have a hexadecimal palette. Well, there are many things to ameliorate. Take example of the canvas, it will be good if objects outside the document (canvas) are not included in the drawing. We are in 2012, people do things faster, we need to move faster, if you will have to pass many ways just to tackle something very small, it will be lame and lost of time. ![]() But, there are many things in terms of "user-friendly" that Inkscape must tackle! GIMP also goes the same. It is a bug for me because the "+" sign should be written and not zoom when writing text. Type something on an object, and type the "+" sign on your numpad, you will see it zooms. You can choose RGB as well.įor the text tool, I mean when you write. We're always here if you get stuck, but you might be able to get help faster, without waiting for us to replyĮxactly, the Fill and Stroke should have a hexadecimal palette. And relatively new in the manual, is an Index by menu, as well as an Index by tool, which I think are bothh very helpful for new users. I guess I forgot to mention it, but the info in my forum sig is all excellent for helping you learn how to use Inkscape. Or maybe I don't understand what you mean? Actually = and + is the key shortcut for zooming. I can type a plus without any problem, using Text tool. ![]() (I don't clearly understand what the CMYK tab actually does.) And then CMS is entirely different, but if you use a color managment, that's what you want.ĭo you mean that if you try to type a + in the hexcode area of the Fill and Stroke dialog, it zooms the canvas? Or do you mean using the Text tool? If you click on the canvas prior to typing, you should be able to type a +. There's a relatively new extension that can provide the CMYK model. Note that CMYK is NOT the CMYK print model. The Wheel is where you can click any color in the color triangle. Using the RBG tab, you can enter the RGB values themselves. Or in the Fill and Stroke dialog, you have a few choices for choosing color, without having to type the code. You can even make your own custom palette (look up Swatches in manual). Click that and a menu will pop up with many choices for palette. It's slightly above the scrollbar for the palette. If the Inkscape palette isn't the one shown, look for a tiny, left-pointing triangle arrow at the extreme right side of that palette. Do you see the palette across the bottom of the canvas? You can click on those colors, and the hexcode is automatically entered for you. ![]()

The bible study2/27/2023 ![]() The One Year Bible Online has created a chronological list of verses to read based on whatever date you want to start.has created a great downloadable pdf that walks you through what you should read each week.Want to jump in and don’t know where to start? Here are some options: It allows you to discover new insights and make connections between passages and books that can often be overlooked. There is tremendous value in reading and studying the Bible through chronologically. While there is a reason Esther, Esra, and Nehemiah are placed toward the middle of the Old Testament, they actually didn’t happen (chronologically) until the end of the Old Testament time frame. Check it out: Genesis 13-18, Genesis 23, Numbers 13.17-33, Joshua 14.5-15, Joshua 20.1-7, Joshua 21.9-13, 2 Samuel 2.11, 2 Samuel 5.3, 2 Samuel 15.7-10.Ī chronological study is where you study through the Bible chronologically – ie: in the order events took place, not necessarily how it was written. ![]() Ever hear of it? Did you know that in the mind of the Israelite, Hebron was a significant place? It was important in the life of Abraham, it became controlled by giants, Caleb expelled the giants and took ownership, David was crowned king on it, priests used it … so did murderers. Say for example you want to do a study on the mountain Hebron. These kind of studies can be of great benefit when you want to know the heart, attitude, and personality of an individual or the importance of a particular location. Using all of Scripture you build the foundation and the conclusion of your topic.Įxample – If I wanted to study the Biblical concept of “love,” I would study passages like: 1 Corinthians 13, John 3.16, John 15, Romans 5.5-11, Romans 8.35-39, Galatians 5.22-25, Ephesians 2.1-10, Ephesians 3.14-21, etc.Ī character study is a study of a person (or place) in Scripture. Rather than starting with a passage, you begin with a topic and find every reference that addresses that theme. But what is the best way to jump in? Here are five types of studies you may want to consider.Ī topical study is a study of … you guessed it, topics. We all understand that studying the Bible is important. ![]()

Tools similar to tweetadder2/27/2023 ![]() ![]() It might have been very early in the morning or late at night. Whenever I am reading an article, I wasn’t quite sure, whether Tweeting it right now was a good idea. Here are the tools I use daily to make me more efficient and get you Tweeting like a Pro: 1. With this massive amount of Apps it can often be quite overwhelming to know which Tools to use. It has grown to an ecosystem of over 1.5 million Apps and continues to register a new Tool every second. What I like best about Twitter is it’s open structure, not only for users, but also for developers. The experiences I have had with Twitter were amazing and it was by far the most valuable Social Network for me to use. In fact, Jeff recently wrote a wonderful post on why it is often misunderstood and people aren’t jumping onto it earlier. That version, however, is targeted toward teens and works by providing in-app “nudges” that suggest looking at a new topic if a user has been viewing posts on the same topic in Explore for a while.The reasons to join Twitter are plentiful. ![]() Instagram recently rolled out its own take on a feature that could help curb the same issue. According to GIFs shared by TikTok, the Content Levels feature will simply say a given age-restricted video is “unavailable” and will further describe it as “age-protected.”Īnd lastly, TikTok said that it will also be limiting content recommendations for certain topics “that may be fine as a single video but potentially problematic if viewed repeatedly.” Examples given of such topics included “dieting” and “extreme fitness.” So basically, you may still see such content recommendations but they’ll show up less often to make room for other topics so that you aren’t watching the same type of video over and over again about topics that could be harmful the more you watch them. TikTok’s decision to add this kind of control seems indicative of a larger trend in social media, especially when you consider apps like Instagram have also recently pushed for more age verification (to create more age-appropriate experiences for its users) and other mature content settings, like IG’s recently expanded Sensitive Content Control (which minors can’t use to increase their access mature content). Basically, it’s a way for TikTok to categorize content “based on thematic maturity.” So content that has “overtly mature themes” will be given “a maturity score” that then stops it from being viewed by TikTok users ages 13 to 17. TikTok also mentioned adding new age restrictions on content that they call Content Levels. This feature is expected to be available “in the coming weeks.” And it is annoying when you go to the trouble of setting up the filter only for your feed to ignore it and show you that topic anyway. Plus, it would be nice if TikTok’s new content filters were more effective at filtering out content than Twitter’s muted words, especially if you’re trying to avoid spoilers on your favorite show. But hopefully, this new content filter feature also means that TikTok users can avoid being surprised by a video on their FYP that features a more serious topic that they find particularly distressing. The examples given in their announcement reflect filtering out milder, less-controversial topics that people might not want to see, such as “DIY tutorials” (if users are no longer interested in them) or fewer animal-product-based recipe videos (if a user is transitioning to a plant-based diet).
