David Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Hats off to you, style nailed. Ive tried half-toning and it end up p@@ing me off, so many, many vector paths, makes it really hard to find items to edit and move - Unless I'm missing some magic tips of course ;) Edit: Affinity... halftoning would be fantastic addition to the effects pallet Willem Pirquin 1 Quote DART | Twitter | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giantlobsterprd Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 @David, no magic bullet here, just keep your textures on separate layers and lock them when not in use. Otherwise yeah, you end up selecting all the little circles by accident. peter 1 Quote --- Dan Robinson | Giant Lobster Productions Ltd Web: giantlobster.uk Instagram: @giantlobsterprd "Art is never finished – only abandoned." - LdV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Really? Dan, there's nowt wrong with your sense of humour. Great minds think alike. A payday loans company also displayed the pear, on an alien's laptop, in its TV ad a while back... This was a real OS. I got it on a cover disc a few years ago and this is how I ended up migrating to Mac OS X. Considering how this can be run on an old PC, from a CD, No hard drive needed, and within 5 or so minutes, you could surf the web. Yes, it had its faults, codecs etc and a restrictive app store/ list, no Serif or Affinity here. :( Just the likes of GIMP. Distrowatch.com lists all Linux distros and sends you to source forge to down load them. RIP Pear/Comice.

giantlobsterprd Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 Distrowatch.com lists all Linux distros and sends you to source forge to down load them. Yikes. Too much tinkering for me. Mind you, I've never owned a Windows PC – if I did, I'd probably be tempted to overwrite the OS as well – I tried W8 once and it gave me a migraine. anon1 1 Quote --- Dan Robinson | Giant Lobster Productions Ltd Web: giantlobster.uk Instagram: @giantlobsterprd "Art is never finished – only abandoned." - LdV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a migraine sufferer: Thursdays, 2pm, two years apart, fluorescent tubes to blame and absolute hater of the notorious dotnetframework cockup; I am with you. However I love Win 2000/XP, despite the install/shut down/update/install/restart farce. Why? Split screens, the one new arrival in the new OS, El Capitain. Try Pear OS, it's less a Mac OS X clone and more of a Beta. If it wasn't for Pear/Comice I wouldn't be here, period. (I can send you the iso file, if you wish, you should also speak to pixlgirl for more info about LInux.)

peter Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Comice was the French name for that elegant OS. As for Monty Python, am I the only one who thinks this...Always listen to (Pink Floyd) the Dark side of the Moon!? We're off, we're off with Mr Spoon. Who was in a programme called Button Moon.
