326 pages of vintage Photoshop wizardry, posted by a Fkn0wned crew member back in 2011.
A resource-sharing post in the GFX Tutorials subforum where crew member [FkN] trs uploaded a link to a 326-page Photoshop tutorial ebook covering effects like puppet-warping characters, wormholes, fur, graffiti, and face swapping. Typical of the site's Art and Design section, the content itself was gated behind a 'reply to unlock' wall, a common leech-prevention tactic on forums like this. Nothing dramatic here — just a quiet slice of the era's GFX/tutorial-sharing culture that made up much of the board's daily traffic.
This book contains 1000 cool photoshop effects and tutorials.— [FkN] trs

Posted by longtime co-manager 'Shifty' (member #6, joined August 2006), whose own status flips between Co-Manager and Banned across the archived snapshots — a small glitch in the site's history. The post itself is sparse, just a placeholder for the winning signature image that no longer loads, typical of these old GFX showcase threads.

The GFX Basement's weekly sig contest goes full Liberty City, decades before the archive would.

The post lays out the standard SOTW format: submission rules, a voting week, and prizes of having your winning signature featured on the main board. A couple of members quickly followed up posting their sig entries for judging. It's a small, routine snapshot of the site's active graphic design subculture rather than a dramatic event.
SOTW #40 Winner - Hall of Fame Entry

Adobe Photoshop CS3 Classroom In A Book
GFX crew shares a Photoshop CS3 study guide, gets a wall of 'thanks' and 'unhide' replies
A resource-sharing thread in the Red Light District's Electronic & Audio books subforum, where GFX staffer 'pato' posted a description of the official Adobe Photoshop CS3 Classroom In A Book guide. The rest of the thread is the classic low-effort bump pattern typical of these download boards: members dropping quick 'thanks', 'ty', and 'unhide' replies to access the content, spanning from mid-2007 into very late 2007. Nothing dramatic happened here — it's a snapshot of the everyday grind of file-sharing courtesy posts that kept these sections alive.
thanks— sammo

Over 1000 Photoshop Brushes from Adam Woodhouse
A dead link, a resurrection, and one very enthusiastic 'SWEET!' — the last gasp of a GFX resource thread.
A page-two tail end of a resource-sharing thread in the Scripts & Templates subforum of the Red Light District, offering a large Photoshop brush pack attributed to designer Adam Woodhouse. By this point the original link had gone dead, prompting a member to flag it and another to post an 'unhide' fix; later replies are just gratitude and low-effort bumps. Typical late-life thread pattern for a resource post: initial hype long gone, just stragglers finding it months later and thanking whoever kept it alive.
Dead link— jbertram
SWEET!— lordofrum

Simple Avatar Tutorial
A quick GFX 101 post that pulled in the usual crowd of 'ty' repliers and one unimpressed critic
A short, credited (to 'Shiv') tutorial on making a basic avatar, posted in the GFX Tutorials section by longtime member kennutz. The thread itself was gated behind a reply-to-unlock system typical of the forum's tutorial culture, and the replies are mostly low-effort thanks and acknowledgments rather than discussion. One member, DILLIGAF, dismissed it as too basic. A modest, unremarkable slice of the forum's graphic design corner, notable mainly for showing the everyday rhythm of the Art and Design board rather than any major event.
Too Simple.......— DILLIGAF

EYE SUX AT SHOPPIN
A guy posts a Photoshop piece, someone says 'lol', and gets moderated for it.
Junnyerr, a well-known [FkN]Blacks leader with over 1,500 posts, dropped a self-deprecatingly titled graphic design piece in the GFX Basement for critique. The thread barely got going before member zanderdanmark replied with a lazy 'lol', prompting smod Kimmi to step in and cite the section's C&C (critique and comment) rules, shutting down low-effort replies. A tiny, everyday slice of forum moderation culture rather than any major drama.
lol— zanderdanmark
Next time you're going to post, please read the rules of the section you're posting in first.— Kimmi

A short, single-post thread in the GFX Resources section where regular aabee shares a link to the external logo/text-generator site CoolText, encouraging other members to try making their own graphics by tweaking colors and shapes. It's a small, low-key tip-sharing post rather than a big discussion, typical of the casual resource-sharing that filled the Art and Design boards.
