# Here's a vector pic what I done for 'comedy' zombie film Wasting Away

CFB (B=Blog)
I had to sit through X Factor while finishing this, so the review may be contaminated with slightly more negative opinions than usual. Still, the pic came out pretty well I think.

# The hands are excellent.
Can I ask... have you just gotten a new monitor?

# Man, I need a bigger monitor
so that it blocks out the TV when the gf is watching trash on it.

# I'm just asking
because lots of your previous pics were less contrasty and less saturated that this one. This pic looks much better on my screen.

# I try to find source pics of a decent resolution to use for vectoring.
This film, and the last one (Zombieland) are pretty easy to find HR images on web, but for the cheap no-budget nothing films I have to grab a screenshot via the wonders of "PrtSc" while watching the DVD. And a lot of those films are really crap quality which really doesn't help when trying to base a vector on them.

# Ah, I got you.
I use PS for vectoring, so I just use adjustment layers to get the pic into shape (brighness/contrast, hue/sat, color balance) if I'm going to sample colours directly from the source.

# Same here
But with really low-res images of really small image size that were recorded presumable from a 1970's videotape the sources really lack all the aspects you need for vectoring (colours, image definition etc) so a lot of the time it's all guesswork.
I'm always surprised when I grab a colour from an image with the eyedropper and it always comes out grey.

# I like the X factor
and I'm not afraid to show it!
Though I wish we were allowed to open fire on the audience.

# I like the first couple of weeks with the auditions.
I also like that welsh girl who is on it this series.

# She is good, I tend to forget she's in it though.
I'm rooting for Stacey Dagenham personally, my friend said she looked like an afghan hound. She does aswell.
I still like her.

# Is she the terribly common one?
She does now you mention it. She seems ok, not that I have seen the last couple of weeks, but she doesn't seem to be anything special.

# She just sung an Etta James number earlier
that I thought showed some maturity and fluency,
which she seemed to be lacking. Another favourite of mine.

# Is it wrong laughing at what are clearly mental people for 'TV'
And the Welsh bird, well would. Not that it would ever happen, it's just....I would.
