!

I'm so busy working on my "technical knowlegde" there's no time left for nice little visuals to post here.
...I know that sounds rather insecere.
It's true though, some technical things/programmes are slightly bothering me at the moment.
The remaining time's being swallowed by plain laziness and of course other things that aren't blog-worthy (I mean, not a blog of this type. I'm talking about driving lessons and all that)!

Anyway, this is an apology.
And some proof I'm still alive, and I haven't completely abandoned this blog!

See you soon!!

GOTCHA!

Processing

I'm in a TERRIBLE mood right now, because after hours of trying to get this to little applet (it's the chubby frog!) to show up on my page, it still won't work.

Anyway, it is online, so here it is.
Gorgeous, no?

I have classmates that get nicer results in about 3 minutes, whereas this took me DAYS to figure out.

(@*#^T@%$!!)!!!!!!!!!!!


!!!!!!!!!!! :(




Code used:

PImage a;
PImage b;
int X = -20;

void setup() {
size(600, 600);
a = loadImage("avatar.gif");
b = loadImage("avatar2.gif");

}

void draw() {
background(255);
imageMode(CENTER);
if (X < 0){
image(a,mouseX,mouseY);
}
else{
image(b,mouseX,mouseY);
}
X++;
if(X>20)
{
X=-20;
}
}

eek

...I'm posting this anyway.



When I started this I wanted to do "photorealism"...
Instead I only spent 20 minutes on it
I'm so lazy it hurts :(

Just testing....

THIS THING IS AWESOME!
I just did this little test drawing in Adobe Photoshop to see how my new wacom tablet responds.. Used a big picture format so its response was a tad slow, but it sensed stroke pressure so well!

If you feel like you've seen the ugly dude before (in art class, on my deviantart, w/e..), you could be right..
I tend to draw similar faces when testing new material because I make all these different types of strokes whilst drawing it!

This is the new "Wacom Bamboo Fun Pen & Touch" tablet. I own one since my birthday (Sept 28th), and I love it!



Mine is black though, which in my opinion looks even better!
This is going to be useful.
