If it's worse than that, you have to expand the image. XD It's 1500 x 1050.

The knives aren't done, but most especially that one. I need to either change its angle somehow (eugh) or experiment with shading in to "blur" the lines, which is what I'm going to try first. It's no biggy if it means the whole blade ends up "smaller", since it's further away from the light anyway. I don't particularly want it to end up as a blurry mess, though. Not with the blood-arc-to-be pointing back at its ugly self.

( Edit: Honestly, if it wasn't for the blood arc I'd get rid of it entirely, and either reverse his grip, eliminate that whole arm from the picture, or take out the dagger and splay his fingers out or something. But I really want to do that blood so that it's him attacking the "camera". )


Doesn't get any better even when viewed in MS Raw Image Viewer. Too small a filesize? (345 KB, *.png). Might look better as pure bitmap.

Hm, your browser doesn't open it for you? What about within an html page? Try this.

Yes it does, no probs, I just wanted to see it in an external viewer in different sizes.

Ah, MS Paint stuff mostly reduces like sh*t. I don't have many LJ icons of my own artwork for that very reason. XD Start shrinking it down and it goes to hell very quickly.

Nothing much I can do for you there.

If you convert it to JPEG and then resizes it (there are freeware programs that do this), shouldn't it resize well? I've never done Paint, mind you, but other Bitmap files I worked with from programs that don't save in JPEG for some obscure reason (Comicworks, I am looking at you) resize well enough when they've been Lanczos3'd.

Of course I may be wrong. >_>

Hmm.. I seem to have missed the 'raping Zevran' stuff, how bad was it?

My head feels much better, though it still feels like something/someone is hitting my brains with a hammer. x.x'

Edit: because I can still write normal English, besides my headache.

It was bad. Zevran and Oghren were both rapists on the survivor sadist island thing.  And I'm glad you feel better!

Sounds wonderful, I have read some of the posts in that thread and it would be an understatement if I called it disturbing.

@Tellervo, very nice. Can I have one of those? <3

It was bad, but it was edited (and the earlier deaths were edited as well) by the OP.

Sure.  Just don't take my crepe.

About the other thread... wild generalizations and a lack of social cognizance.  That's all I'm going to say on the matter, because it's probably best left alone at this point.

Oh, I'm glad it was edited. I haven't read it since I went off about it. The whole thing made me too angry.

Edit: OMG, the food just looks TOO good! :wub:

Now I want icecream and I can't go to the store.  Virtual snacks are not cutting it.

Hmmm, I'm debating fixing ZDF's Alistair_main files properly and cleanly rather than the kludge I did. I was going to do that, but now I'm not sure it's worth the time and effort involved. I could put a few lines back in that I took out, but I'm not sure that they would really be missed.

Is it possible to fuse cme(can't ever remember the rest of her tag)'s fixes with it, or has she fixed different things?

Good crepes are good.  Bad crepes are lame.  This one was fresh spinach and egg and colby jack cheese on a wheat crepe.  All ingredients came from the farmers' market.  It was extremely tasty.  That's my partner holding it, by the way.

We had breakfast at the local farmers' market on Saturday morning, and those are what we had.  The ice cream is made by some guy who sells it out of the back of a freezer truck, gets his milk from some dairy near where he lives....  Those two flavors are "Bourbon Ball Crunch" (I'm not kidding about how much Central Kentuckians like their bourbon) and "Red Velvet Swirl" (which is mouthgasmic, I've grabbed one every time I have the appropriate change left over since he showed up at the market a year and a half ago).  Most of his flavors are weird and/or seasonal or one-offs, though he does sell vanilla and fruit flavors for the whole season.

You have no idea what you're talking about.  Spinach pie=awesome.

The first time I ever successfully worked with phyllo dough was making a spanokopita for my birthday.  It was delicious.  It's technically a sort of pie, so, there.

Actually, cmessaz's is built on ZDF's alistair_main.dlg which is awesome.  That's part of the reason I'm hesitating -- I don't want to create unnecessary work for her, especially since her toolset is being very bad right now.  I may just go through and make the fixes I want, and see what she thinks. Most would be easy for her to implement I think without using a new B2B.
