Vectoring Images

to be honest, if there was some sort of magical way to vector images easily, i would do it. but so far, i haven't found anything reliable that can do that as of yet. so i though, why not i learn it myself? asking a few people i know here and there and voila, i began to vector my first image ever.

of course, there are a number of images i wanted to vector. but given that this is my first time, i wanted a to vector something i truly desired. unfortunately the resolution of that particular picture is too small for an amateur like me to handle. so i headed for what is second best.



of course i don't intend to vector the entire image but merely mio-chan there in the middle. eventually i may or may not vector mugi and yui though it is very likely that i would.

through much time and guesswork, i finally finished vectoring mio-chan.



this is mio-chan of K-On! version 0.1a.

so far, the only other version is 0.1b though the only change is that the hair reflection has no black border so i don't see the point of uploading it. after all, this image is pretty large.

the image is 3800 x 4065 pixels with 32 bit depth. since i was vectoring it, it is only common to super-size it this much, right?

personally i think it could have been better. i'm a little disappointed that i can't put in the blush on her face without making her look retarded. nevertheless, i find this piece of work satisfying for me.

i wouldn't know why you would want to but you can feel free to download and use the image. though please remember to credit me.

EDIT: in the twenty minutes where i was reviewing my vectored images, i realized that the white gap in the lower right hand side of her hair was supposed to be transparent. though i have corrected it in my laptop, the image above remains wrong. if you wish to use it, you may want to correct that error first.

Suzumiya Haruhi 2009 Download

as you all may have known by now, i uploaded the first episode. now i'm uploading what i have again but this time it is all done by chihiro subs. why? because i like them and i like my anime to be from the same subbers to make my life more standard. having a different subber for each episode is a real turn off for me.

why choose deposit files you say? because i used to live in an apartment near my campus where they block access to certain websites such as megaupload, rapidshare, and so on. the only thing they seem not to block is deposit files. so yes, i'm being a little biased for them. and no, i will not mirror this anywhere else. i know its a little slow but it also makes sure that those who share internet connections will not leech too much.

from what i can see, the only people who suffer are individuals who own their own internet access.

this post will be updated whenever i feel like it after i get more episodes. i am not affiliated with chihiro subs. i am merely uploading their work.

Mustang's Opponent Cheated in Chess

as you all would have known by now, the thirteenth episode of Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood is out. while i can say it is a nice episode as always, there is a part of the story where Roy Mustang is seen playing chess.

this, of course is normal. up to the point where you notice that Roy has already captured to of both his opponents bishop and yet there is an extra one that remains on the board.







while it can be argued that in the second image, Roy has captured the bishop in the first image, the third one shows that it is obviously still there.

those who have some knowledge on chess would know that this is wrong. what is more is the fact that the opponent lost even with this extra advantage.
