pioneer Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 My latest picture quiz round. Tv set created in designer. 20 placeholders inside the TV image for the images. All images converted to B&W and a levels adjustment on the majority of images. I created masks to obliterate the backgrounds in the images to take away the fussy details. in APhoto. designed on an A4 will be enlarged to A3 one per team on the night. Comments on the creation and final (almost) presentation as always are welcome. have fun with identifying the faces. As always I look forward to @William Overington blistering observations which are 2nd to none PaulEC, AffinityJules, SrPx and 2 others 4 1 Quote AMD Ryzen 7 5800 X.

AffinityJules Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Ah....another connecting theme. Got it. Quote Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe. These are not my own words but I sure like this quote.

William Overington Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 With the original Picture quiz, even when I had seen the answers I realized that I did not know who are a lot of them. Looking through these sixteen pictures, however, I recognize two of them, number 11 and number 16, and I think that that may well have given me the theme.

William Overington Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Given that theme, I think I know who is number 9. Also possibly number 2.

Just wondering, is there any particular reason that you did not design it as an A3 please? Enlarging from A4 to A3 will mean a ratio of around 1.414 in each of width and height. I wonder if that might cause problems with enlarging the pictures. I don't know whether it will or not, I am just wondering. By the way, number 11 is on YouTube.

I don't know whether it will or not, I am just wondering. Though I suppose that a lot depends upon what facilities @pioneer has at home, at the club, elsewhere, or online, such as whether getting an A3 print can be done from a PDF document or is done by putting an A4 paper document into a photocopier and an A3 size print being output (do some photocopiers do that?).

pioneer Posted March 17 Author Share Posted March 17 Ok Picture Quiz went live last night, 7 teams of 4/6 all thought the quiz presentation was different and pleasing on the eye. Winning team scored 15. all other teams scored 9 or above, It was handed out at the start of the evening, handed in at end of the evening. Only 4 teams got number 4.

I’m afraid I had to resort to a reverse image search for that one (James Coburn in Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid, for those wondering). A similar search for number 13 didn’t work until I tweaked the brightness and contrast to reveal James Blunt. pioneer 1 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.4.1 (iPad 7th gen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Overington Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 41 minutes ago, pioneer said: Yes. The majority of people even though they knew it was wrong thought it was Lee Marvin. But why did they purportedly know it was wrong? Just because all of the answers that they have found thus far have the first name James is no basis to assume that every answer will have the first name James, unless thay have been told that every answer has the same first name. Was there any reason to know that the quiz was not having fifteen answers with the first name of James and one answer that had another first name? Sort of like those pullovers that have pictures of sheep on them. William Quote Until December 2022, using a Lenovo laptop running Windows 10 in England.
