Title: health homework
Post by: skitzo on January 30, 2008, 09:47:57 PM
yeah i've started health this semester and one of my assignments is to create a cover page for my binder that "describes" me and was wondering if someone with good photoshop skills would be willing to make one for me that had a skateboarding and paintball 2 theme

only requirement is to have "Billy Cole" and "Health 811-04" somewhere on the cover

doesn't have to be great as it is due Friday...

thanks to anyone who wants to help

Skitzo, use Gimp. Just google it, its a really great photo editing/making software, better than photoshop in my opinion.  I have made many a thing on Gimp, including textures, so with about 30 mins of playing I am sure you could come up with something nice. ;)

BTW: GIMP IS FREE FTW!!!

'Really great' is a massive overstatement. It's interface is absolutely horrible. It's one of the best free packages out there, but nowhere near any professionally developed image editing software.

Actually, for low-intensity image editing, I like Paint.NET much more. Very usable.

Here is osmething to think about:

Create agraphic of some sorts and it doesn;'t need a lot of details.

Then convert the image to ASCII art.

THAT would be different.

Eeh, I would uses emacs or vim, but using dvorak kind of kills the layout for me. So, nano is just about the only choice.

Vim works fine with dvorak.  The keys are based on function, not position: i for insert, a for append, etc.

'h' for left, 'l' for right, right? That's the bit that puts me off. ;)
