Pixel perfect is good enough

Thursday, October 29th, 2009

Matthias, not sure what sub-pixels you refer to, but it’s great to see pixel-grid snapping love. Also worth noting is proper rounded corners. The last thing that’s subpar are the blown up tango icons. Perhaps Moblin-like stencils would be better for the images on the OSD panels.

Improving My Sketches

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

One of the skills I most lack (ok there’s quite a list) is drawing/sketching. I usually just do a very rough one or avoid it completely so there’s little to no chance of improving. So I’ve started a project to draw something every day for a whole month. I will probably need to make it whole year to see any improvement though. But then again I know I can barely make it through the month. And yes, part of the project is public humiliation.

I was thinking to give myself a fixed time limit for these, but I’ll leave that for when I have at least a bit of confidence. And since I’ve published it here, I will look even more embarrassed when I skip a day.
