                        a new skin from Asdust


   Hi everybody! Well, I spent a week working on this skin, and when you 
see it, you'll know why. But until then, you may be asking: Ashdust, I 
already have a shitload of skins, and just about every fucking multi-skin 
patch there is out there. Why in the fucking hell do you think I need a new
God damned skin? 
   Well, first off, let me say that this new skin is not for everybody. Wimps
that like to hide and just snipe people while wearing a dark skin, may not 
enjoy the insanity behind The Digital Man. So who is this new skin for, and 
how can it improve my Quake game (or fuck it up if you suck at death match)? 
Well, let me tell you a little story. 
   The Digital Man skin was an idea I had while staring at a lava lamp that 
sits just next to my computer. After a moment, I found that I was staring at
the bright, unusual mass, molding itself inside the lamp, more then I was the
same textures and reaper bots in Quake. So after a few moments, I came to the
conclusion that a very unusual, disorganized skin would be perfect for Reaper
Bots. But after finishing The Digital Mans head, he still looked to organized
and to much like other skins. So I went into a photo editing program and 
pasted a parrots head, Shae Marks' eye, and a couple of textures from Windows
onto his body. Then I took the axe from my Chaos2 skin, and pasted that over
the old one. but it still wasn't enough. Nope, this skin need bright colors, 
the picture of a hand giving you the bird, a stop sign over its crotch, and
"Redrum" written over its chest, among many, many other things. 
   Well, to make a long story short, the end result was the most unusual, 
 most original skin (that I've seen) for Quake. But not only was it obviosly
 different, it had something most other skins don't. This one says, "Don't 
 you even try to fuck with me, or I'll fuck you back so hard that you'll never
 be able to walk again!" This skin seemed to almost have the words MAD MAN
 written on them.
   So what's the point? Well, if I haven't sold you the skin yet, you're 
 probably not interested. BUT, imagine a skin that is so unusual, people will
 want to spend more time trying to look at it then see it? Imagine the gibbing
 this skin could help you pull off! And imagine walking anywhere, and being 
 able to be seen by everybody (parts of the skin glow in the dark, which is on
 purpose). Think of how much more intense your Quake game will be. There's no
 question about it, The Digital Man skin speaks for itself. The wearer of this
 skin is obviosly a very hard core bad ass in Quake. This one is meant for the
 people who will say, "I just don't give a fuck anymore," and run out into an
 open space while blasting rockets up everybodies asses until they're shot 
 down in a blaze of glory.
    So do you want the skin yet? Does this one sound crazy enough for you to
become a Quake dare devil? Or are you gonna keep wearing the dark pussy skins
meant for hiding? Well? What's it gonna be?

I'm already wondering how much Email I'll get from people saying, "Your skin
sucks! And I'm not a wimp! I just hide to surprise other people!"
