just use the rasterbator

pretty cool photo, indeed. but i think it would have looked better if the needle was a little closer to the elbow.

ps, i don't know where to get a hi-res one.

Rasterbater eh?

Never heard of it.

From the download, it looks cool, thanks.

Maybe if I can't get a hi-res version I can go arty and do it in visible dots instead.

yeah, its awesome
if you get the dot size and everything right, from the middle of the room it looks right
won't have the detail, but it should work well

they start young

Ok, so I ran it through the Rasterbater, using 5mm dots, and did a couple of test A4s. It looked pretty good, so I ran it through again, this time specifiying 4 x A2 pages to give me a grand image size of 1000 x 800 (39 x 31 inches).

Took it down to a print shop we use at work, they quoted me $40 a sheet, so $160 all up. Add to that framing and mounting, and I'm probably looking at $250 just to get the fucking thing on the wall.

Will have to wait until payday on Wednesday.

Will take a photo when complete.

What the fuck? $40 a sheet? should be more like 15 cents a sheet. What kind of sheets are you using? are they coated with gold? That's really unacceptable. get some quotes from some more shops.
