# A lot of people have been asking me to do all the slebs off this year's BB. So here's the first one.

# nice pic, but when are you going to do him?

# Just as soon as I can decide which one first. They're twins, you know.

sounds eminently more sexually appealing than doing either of Jedward.

# well there's a 'celeb' version on at the moment,
I haven't seen it, but I did recognise a couple of the names mentioned - katona and jedward

# Oh, hang on, I just remembered:
Sally whatsername is on it as well, isn't she? The speaker's wife.
The owner of channel5 was hoping for 20 million viewers. I wonder if that will happen?

# 'do'?
What have you done?
Ooooh - is this one of those 'vector' things?

Run a few filters over a photo?

a wobbly's vectorish stuff?

# Not even that much,
I just used a program that makes vector versions of photographs. I thought they were popular?
(, Sun 21 Aug 2011, 12:03, archived)
# Nah
I think people like hand-drawn vectors because they recognise the effort and talent it takes to make a good one. Plugging it into a program (be it a vectoriser or photoshop filters) requires no skill so has little redeeming value. Those are both sweeping generalisations. A good artist can make wonderous things but generally you can spot them a mile away.

I believe B3ta is more about stuff you've done yourself, ideally funny stuff.

# Right.
So you're saying that the picture of Joe Strummer down there was done by hand?
edit: Or the detail on the dress on the Patty McCormack one?

# Nope
and I'm observing that a lot of people don't like Wobbly's stuff.

# I see.
Perhaps I should explain: I was being sarcastic.

My brain hurts!

I can't tell if you're offended or not. That was not my intention. I think it's all crap. Never see an auto-vec on the popular page. I miss Furtive and No-hands.

# haha, no, not offended at all :)
I thought your earnest explanation of what kind of pictures have merit here seemed to be missing the sarcasm of both my original post, and my subsequent remark that I thought they were popular.
I also thought you were suggesting that wobbly's pics were something other than just whacked through a few filters.
Sorry for the confusion.
