[challenge entry] kind of a repost
(but i spent so long re editting it i feel it's earnt a new thread).

because we're all more two faced now a days.




EDIT: Having just seen this www.b3ta.com/board/8754128 I have gazzed microwave asking for the uni's address and the name of the person who told him to stop. if he concents anyone else up for mailing a huge ammount of letters of complaint to the uni saying how wrong you feel it is for an education establishment implanting draconian messures to curtail a students freedom of expression and creativity

I'm torn between this because it's a decent size image and something like this because it's far more moody

I can't understand a word of yours ;-)

The green colour makes a big difference, so much so that I wish I'd done something like that myself rather than sticking to grey.

# basically you take the original picture and reduce it down to three colours

then use numbers/letters for the shadows...
dots/ commas for the rest

# ah, no
sorry. I made it quite faithful to the original work. Hence why it took 10 sodding hours. In one sitting. I learned that Word isn't really designed for that sort of thing!

kindly

The kind of thing you've done (and the sort of stuff that HappyToast knocks out for fun) leaves me in awe to be honest.
(Cluck needs a holiday, Thu 18 Sep 2008, 1:13, archived)
# thanking thee
I'm not sure which is more praiseful the awe or being lumped into a sentence with happy toast :)

# Cocking Nora!
Did you have the picture underneath or something? Because that's bloody impressive freehand otherwise.
(Jeru War and Piss, Thu 18 Sep 2008, 1:02, archived)
# In truth
I can't remember, but as I know my skills are not THAT great, I think it's a safe bet that the picture was underneath ;-)

Just checked the original Word document and it only has the artwork I put on there, not the original picture, but I probably would have deleted it if it was there.

What I can say, with the utmost truth, is that it was done entirely within Word and only using the basic tools that Word has.

EDIT : The original Word document is at "http://www.clucksworld.co.uk/b3ta/la reve - picasso.doc" if you want to take a look at it.
