<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:left;">Um, so I guess the title of this post is the title of the sketch, although the title could also be "Moonbot Mowing His Moon Yard." Which I guess is mostly the same title, so, whatever. Anyway, if it wasn't late I'd fix the fourteen things about the sketch that wandered away from the original image I had in my head, but it <em>is</em> late, so I won't fix 'em tonight, and really probably won't ever fix 'em, 'cause there are many other things I've gotta draw, and mistaken drawings are good for thinking about, at least, in a self-teaching sort of way.</p>

This has sparked several discussions on-line and we would like to add our two cents.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">We will deal with this issue using the alternate definition of the word </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insourcing" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:small;color:#800080;font-family:Times New Roman;">insourcing</span></a><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">, since in theory, everything is possible. Since we are currently in America, this term will refer to transferring jobs to local contractors and facilities that are physically located in the United States of America.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">This is an election year, and there is talk from both candidates about putting America back to work. Each candidate states their commitment to this but maybe small businesses can lead the charge for their respective industries. With supportive government policies, that are enforced, the number of jobs located in America just might increase. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">For example, since free trade isn’t always fair trade, how about having product documentation targeted at the American consumer, written in America? Our company has rewritten product guides that were originally written in a country where English was not the first language. It turned out that outsourcing wasn’t appropriate in this case. In short, they had to pay to have the same work done twice. Where is the savings here? We don’t see any and neither do our clients. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">Supporting policies and infrastructure may assist in avoiding issues like this and promote a win-win for both the corporate bottom line and the American worker. But this is just a theory, and in theory, everything is possible!</span></p>

<description><![CDATA[What program do you use the most. I&#8217;ve been asked this question a lot over the past few years,]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What program do you use the most. I've been asked this question a lot over the past few years, and I am always somewhat wary on how to answer it. I know a lot of pretty good designers, especially web designers, who do all of their work in Photoshop. At my current job I use a combination of Photoshop and Illustrator for every project. If I had InDesign I would use all three. All three, you might be asking? But why would you need to use all three? Well the answer is simple, each program is designed to do a different thing.</p>
<p>Photoshop is meant for photo manipulation. This means, you should probably open this one first to work on all of your photos and make them look as good as you can before going any further in the project.</p>
<p>Illustrator/Freehand/Corel Draw should be used for any graphics you need. From shapes and symbols to any elaborate vector drawings you may need for the final design. Try not to bring photos into this program as they can slow the program down to a snails pace and will probably not look as good as they do in Photoshop or Indesign. Illustrator also limits you to one page so it's pretty much useless if you are doing booklets or multi-page designs. Freehand allows multi-pages, but as it is a dying program, it is better to use Indesign for later editing.</p>
<p>Indesign/Quark Express are the page layout programs most commonly used. Most of the places that have been around for a long time will probably still be using Quark, while newer companies and places that have recently updated are more likely to have Indesign. This is where you take all of the stuff you made in the other programs and put it together to make your delicious design. Personally I have never done more with Quark than a basic tutorial and prefer to spend my time learning Indesign as it seems to be where the industry is moving, but I have seen plenty of ads for designers that require that you know how to use this program, so I wouldn't say that it is dead yet.</p>
<p>What program have I not mentioned? Word! Word processors are not design tools. I don't care if they have those nifty little templates and can accept photos, if you are ever planning on sending the work to a true designer, or even a printer, do not expect them to be able or willing to touch a .doc (word file). They will almost always rip out their hair, cry a little, than have to recreate the entire design if you send it to them this way, which can be impossible or nearly so. So DON'T USE ANY WORD PROGRAM FOR YOUR DESIGN!!! Seriously! Or I will hunt you down and break your computer.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Well i  took a bit of a mental vacation, and now the playtime is over time to change seasons, cause fall is upon us now. Took the kids fishing and my 7 year old son caught a 30 inch Northern Pike, that was nice.After that though all the city people showed up and started tearin up the lake so no more fishing.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><font color="Brown">So you whip open Illustrator and without fail start poking this and the other..........next thing you know your palettes have disappeared and your brush is in the shape of a dog.  While it would be prudent to learn how to undo this mess, it may be easier for a beginner to delete the preferences file and begin anew.  Here's how:</p>
<p><strong>Exit Adobe Illustrator </strong></p>
<p>If you're using  <strong>Windows</strong>, the Preferences files hide in:<br />
<strong><em>Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings folder</em></strong><br />
and<br />
<strong><em>Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings\Workspaces folder</em><br />
</strong><br />
They go by the names <strong>AIPrefs</strong> and <strong>AIWSPrefs</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://sonambule.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/aiprefs.png"><img src="http://sonambule.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/aiprefs.png?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="236" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-18" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://sonambule.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/aiwsprefs.png"><img src="http://sonambule.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/aiwsprefs.png?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="123" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-15" /></a></p>
<p>For MacOS they are nestled sweetly in:<br />
<strong><em>Users/username/Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings folder</em></strong><br />
and<br />
<strong><em>Users/username/Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings/Workspaces folder</em></strong></p>
<p>In order to reset the Preferences simply delete the above mentioned files and Illustrator will rebuild them to their default state upon restarting </p>
<p>This also works when Illustrator is behaving strangely, give it a try! </font></p>

I consider myself to be proficient in Photoshop and pathetic with Illustrator.  How can this be you ask? it's simple really.....Illustrator workflow directly impedes my attempts at instant graphic gratification.</p>
<p>In Photoshop I can directly edit elements in an intuitive way, Illustrator not so much, that's the bottom line.  </p>
<p>So I will begin documenting what I learn, in order to better remember and to allow you to laugh at my novicenessessssesss which is a real word believe it or not, look it up for yourself <a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=gullible&#38;x=0&#38;y=0">novicenessessssesss</a></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>salah satu hal yang tidak dimiliki oleh programmer adalah <em><u>DESIGN</u></em>, yup kebanyakan programmer hanya mahir di otak kiri, tanpa mahir diotak kanan. padahal saat ini kesuksesan tak dijamin lagi dari otak kiri, tapi lebih dari otak kanan.</p>
<p>apa anda pernah membaca buku <em>13 Wasiat Terlarang, Dasyat Dengan Otak Kanan</em> karya Ippo S. kalo blum wah berarti anda emang kurang gaul.</p>
<p><!--more-->
<p>makanya saat ini selain seorang programmer java, saya juga mulai masuk ke design, terutama vector. why vector, not bitmap? alesannya simple, saya gak punya camera digital, hahahaahhaaaa</p>
<p>so, mulai saat ini saya akan mulai berbagi gambar2 vector yang saya buat, tapi gak usah protes yach kalo gambarnya masih cemen. maklum kan saya bukan anak design, tapi anak teknik informatika.</p>
<p>hmmm, nih gambar dibawah saya kasih judul <em>MOLEKUL...</em></p>

<p><em>Photography by </em><a title="Kent Arild Haga Website" href="http://foto.no/cgi-bin/bruker/dittnavn/index.cgi?brukernavn=kenthaga" target="_blank"><em>Kent Arild Haga</em></a></p>
<p><em>Editing &#38; Painting by me, </em><a title="Nina Arctander Website" href="http://ninaarctander.com" target="_blank"><em>Nina Arctander</em></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>I often find myself in the situation of defending my chosen way of working. Why?</p>
<p>Well, it is a common misunderstanding that digital painting is exactly like traditional painting, only in a virtual space. The canvas is virtual, the brush is virtual and the paint is virtual, yes, that is true, but many digital painters work with more than just virtual paint. There are those who prefer to only use their own custom brush sets and mix their colours from scratch in a virtual palette, because if you don´t you are "cheating"... That is bullshit! Why?</p>
<p>Well, I honestly believe that in the world of art making, as long as you don´t steal another mans work, there is nothing that is called cheating! As an artist and illustrator my goal is to produce artwork for my clients with the best quality possible within the amount of time given, and that means that I have to use every trick in the book to make that happen. Most digital painters work with photography in some way or the other. Some use it as resource material, some use texture stock to make custom brushes, some use it as a base and paint on top of it and some uses bits and pieces of many pictures to create an entire new world!  We cut and mix and blend and paint, and we may even extract colours from a photography with a special atmosphere in it and create a colour theme and palette from that. We adjust contrasts and lighting by pressing the right button on our computers, and we work in layers because it makes editing (and regretting things:P) easier. IT IS NOT CHEATING, IT IS A TECHNIQUE!</p>
<p>I think people get confused by the term "Digital Painting" because it suggests that it is all in fact "painted", but it really is a mix of painting, drawing, editing and photo manipulation. And it should not be compared so harshly to traditional painting because it is two very very very VERY very (very) different things!</p>
<p>Remember, this is my point of views, you may not agree and that is totally up to you. Feel free to let me know what you think about this subject;)</p>
<p> </p>
<p><em>The image on top is my latest commission and is a good example of what a digital painting can be like. The photographer hired me to give his photography some ooomph and I went a little crazy because I enjoyed it so much^^</em></p>

<p>Sirva esta tira para hacer boca acerca del nuevo blog que he creado con tiras cómicas donde los protagonistas son los números y letras que nos han acompañado toda la vida.</p>
<p>De momento hay 15 tiras, pero espero ir añadiendo más poquito a poco (mi gestión del tiempo está llegando a sus límites). Si os gusta la muestra podéis echar un vistazo al resto en:</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><a href="http://numerosyletras.wordpress.com/">http://numerosyletras.wordpress.com/</a></span></span><a href="numerosyletras.wordpress.com" target="_blank"></a></p>
<p>Os aconsejo que leais la página "Acerca de..." para comprender el comportamiento de los personajes y de esta manera poder disdrutar más de las historietas.</p>
<p>En cuanto a los detalles técnicos, comentaros que las tiras están realizadas integramente en <strong>Illustrator</strong> y dibujadas con una tableta <strong>Wacom Cintiq 12 WX</strong>.</p>
<p>Si o gustan me encantaría que me lo hicierais saber, ya que, como os podéis imaginar, saber que hay alguien a quien le interesa lo que haces es el mejor acicate para continuar perseverando y no dejar el proyecto abandonado en el ólvido.</p>

<description><![CDATA[One of the most essential resources for web developers and artists alike are color pickers, swatches]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the most essential resources for web developers and artists alike are color pickers, swatches, color wheels, color scheme generators, whatever you want to call them. Many programs, like Photoshop, have them built right in, but sometimes you need a bit more than what they can offer. This is a short list of web resources for color. It's true that they can all come in handy from time to time (or at least once a day if you're like me).</p>
<p>Let's start with some basic color pickers.</p>
<hr>
<strong><a href="http://www.iosart.com/firefox/colorzilla/">ColorZilla</a></strong><br />
This is a nifty little add-on for Firefox which allows you to view or pickup the color from anywhere in the browser.</p>
<p><strong>(+)</strong> It's always at your fingertips; no external program to open up or extra steps to go through. [It sure beats having to take a screencap, then open a program like Photoshop and THEN get the color using the eyedrop tool so that you can finally use it.] Another plus: it's free to download and use, like any Firefox add-on.</p>
<p><strong>(-)</strong> The only drawback is that it only works within Firefox (well duh!) and doesn't cross over to anything outside of the browser window.</p>
<hr>
<strong><a href="http://colorcop.net/">ColorCop</a></strong><br />
ColorCop is a free colorpicker available for download which surpasses the limitations of the ColorZilla add-on. In fact, it works with anything that is visible on your monitor. The program even includes a closeup view of the area you are selecting from which allows you to choose colors pixel-by-pixel. It's a dream come true if you ask me!</p>
<p><strong>(+)</strong> The most versatile color picker out there. You can get <em>exactly</em> the color you want from anywhere on the screen.</p>
<p><strong>(-)</strong> Sometimes it's just as much work to utilize with other programs.</p>
<hr>
<strong><a href="http://kuler.adobe.com/">kuler</a></strong><br />
Kuler is Adobe's new (experimental?) web-based color engine. Pre-programmed algorithms allow you to choose colors based on "moods" (from pictures), and color theory rules (starting from a base color). Or you can create custom color swatches. You can create a "theme" of five color swatches, browse the themes submitted by the kuler community, and save your own themes as private or public.</p>
<p><strong>(+)</strong> This is a great tool for choosing harmonious colors. It's especially useful for people who have a hard time choosing colors on their own. You can also access the kuler community database in Adobe Illustrator and export your themes for use in Illustrator (login required to save and export).</p>
<p><strong>(-)</strong> The biggest drawback to kuler is the default black/gray background with (currently) no option for white or another color. The fact is that colors appear different when shown with other colors. This is known as the Bezold Effect. (Wikipedia actually has a pretty good example using black and white: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bezold_Effect">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bezold_Effect</a>). It is surprising that a community built on/for Color Theory would make such an erroneous decision at its very core. I'm left with the impression that they care more about making kuler look cool for the community than making it fully functional for designers.</p>
<hr>
<strong>Adobe Illustrator's Color Guide Panel</strong><br />
While on the topic of Adobe I'd like to mention a new feature in Illustrator CS3: the Color Guide Panel. Okay, okay, it's not a web resource, but it's just as useful (if you use Illustrator). This feature is similar to kuler but it has a different user interface. It is a quick way to select and apply colors to you document. </p>
<p><a href="http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/video_workshop/">Adobe's Video Workshop</a> explains everything better than I could right here. Just select "Color" from the list of topics on the right and it should be one of the first videos results. Unfortunately I can't link directly to the video for you because the Video Workshop page is Flash-based.</p>
<hr>
<strong><a href="http://www.colorjack.com/">ColorJack</a></strong><br />
ColorJack has so many features it blows every other web-based application out of the water. I'm not even sure where to begin.</p>
<p><strong>(+)</strong> You can export your color swatches for use in Photoshop and Illustrator (no signup needed). Create as many color swatches as you need. One of the preview modes allows you to view each color next to all the others (so you can see just how the color all the way on the left looks with the color all the way on the right). Nifty! </p>
<p>In the Color Sphere: Color Theory Visualizer you can switch between black and white backgrounds as well as select from a wide variety of color rules. Exactly what Adobe's kuler was lacking.</p>
<p><strong>(-)</strong> There are so many other features, software and links that I can't begin to tell you about them here. You'll have to check out for yourself.</p>

<p>I recenlty created a page called EXPOSURE for links to all the places i've been featured at/in.  It's right there at the tippy top.  Hopefully I'll be able to add more links!  Looking at my gmail night and day for my "you've been selected to join MTV's engineroom" email!  HA!  I'm submitting to about 4 zines, real hard copy zines, and about 2-3 electronic ones.  Here's to hoping.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Salve a tutti,questo è un piccolo tutorial diviso in parti che spiega come preparare i files per la stampa commerciale. Faremo ciò creando un semplice biglietto da visita. Apriamo Illustrator e andiamo avanti. Illustrator CS3 facilita le cose con una nuova schermata d'avvio che ci consente già di scegliere il tipo tipo di file che vogliamo creare.</p>
<div><img src="http://deviazionivisive.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/schermata-avvio.jpg" alt="" width="385" height="292" /></p>
<div>Selezionando dalla schermata <strong>print document</strong>, Illustrator creerà automaticamente un nuovo file col colore in quadricromia (CMYK) e la risoluzione a 300dpi, requisiti primari per la stampa. Nella seconda finestra che si apre possiamo settare le dimensioni del documento ed il nome del nostro file. Noi come misure scriveremo 9X5 cm, una misura standard per i biglietti da visita.</p>
<div><img src="http://deviazionivisive.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/moz-screenshot.jpg" alt="" width="385" height="209" /></p>
<div>Bene,vediamo ora l'area di lavoro</p>
<div><img src="http://deviazionivisive.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/moz-screenshot-1.jpg" alt="" width="385" height="227" /></p>
<div>Il rettangolo nero rappresenta la nostra area di lavoro, cioè il nostro biglietto da visita. Supponiamo che il nostro biglietto da visita abbia uno sfondo giallo. Con lo strumento rettangolo ed un colore giallo tracciamo quindi un rettangolo <strong>che esca dai bordi della pagina</strong>.</p>
<div><img src="http://deviazionivisive.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/moz-screenshot-2.jpg" alt="" width="394" height="229" /></div>
<div>Perchè? Abbiamo appena creato quella che alcuni stampatori chiamano <strong>abbondanza.</strong> Siamo andati oltre l'area di taglio, in modo da assicurarci che il colore venga stampanto sino all'estremità della pagina in caso di disallineamento della macchina da taglio delle tipografie, che non sempre è precisissima. Passiamo ora al testo. Prima di mettere il testo dobbiamo preoccuparci di inserire dei margini di 5mm (va bene anche 3mm, ma è consigliabile 5mm) dai bordi della pagina entro cui deve andare il nostro testo. Il motivo è lo stesso di sopra: serve ad impedire che un rifilo(taglio) non corretto tagli anche il nostro testo o altro. Per fare ciò usiamo i righelli e le guide di illustrator:</p>
<div><img src="http://deviazionivisive.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/moz-screenshot-3.jpg" alt="" width="407" height="229" /></p>
<div>Fatto ciò inseriamo tutto ciò che ci serve, immagini, loghi testo e quant'altro dentro le guide create.</p>
<div><img src="http://deviazionivisive.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/moz-screenshot-4.jpg" alt="" width="390" height="233" /></p>
<div>Bene, il prossimo passo è convertire tutto il testo in tracciati. Ciò serve ad evitare che la tipografia, in caso non abbia i font da noi usati per il lavoro, debba fermare il lavoro per chiedervi i font. E' vero che potremmo anche saltare questo passaggio, in quanto quando salveremo in pdf sceglieremo un'opzione che incorpora tutti i font. E' comunque necessario convertire il testo in tracciati se dovrete esportare in <strong>eps</strong> o atri formati richiesti da alcune tipografiche che (ahimè) non usano il pdf. Selezionate dunque tutto il testo e dal menu testo scegliete converti in tracciati(curve).<br />
Bene siamo quasi alla fine. Abbiamo impostato la pagina, la risoluzione, il metodo colore cmyk, l'abbondanza e i margini. non ci resta che esportare il file. Esporteremo in pdf.<br />
salvate prima il vostro sorgente, scegliete quindi dal menu file il comando <strong>salva con nome</strong> e scegliete come formato pdf. Si apre la finestra di esportazione pdf da cui scegliere le opzioni di esportazione. Noi sceglieremo un pdf generico per la stampa, che va bene per la maggior parte dei casi.</p>
<p>Dalla finestra di salvataggio del pdf, nel menu Adobe PDF Preset scegliamo Press quality.</p>
<div><img src="http://deviazionivisive.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/moz-screenshot-5.jpg" alt="" width="370" height="307" /></p>
<div>Prossimo passo: scegliamo il tab <strong>Marks and bleeds</strong> e spuntiamo la casella <strong>All Printer's Marks: </strong>ciò aggiungerà i segni di cui ha bisogno lo stampatore. Aggiungerà dei segni che indicheranno dove il foglio deve essere tagliato, informazioni sulla pagina e sul file, i segni per allineare le lastre di stampa e le barre colore. Nel riquadro <strong>Bleeds</strong> (evidenziato in verde), invece, imposteremo i margini oltre il taglio che si vedranno nel pdf, la cosidetta "pagina al vivo". Mettiamoli pure al massimo (2,54mm) e andiamo avanti. Così facendo si vedrà anche l'abbondanza che abbiamo impostato.</div>
<p><strong><br />
</strong><img src="http://deviazionivisive.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/moz-screenshot-6.jpg" alt="" width="362" height="285" /></p>
<div>Possiamo ora salvare e vedere il nostro pdf.</p>
<div><img src="http://deviazionivisive.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/moz-screenshot-7.jpg" alt="" width="377" height="268" /></p>
<div>Ecco fatto: abbiamo preparato il nostro biglietto da visita, ora no resta che inviarlo.</div>
