Poster Design Preview

Submitted by caedes 10/07/03 6:59 PM GMT

Here's a link to the preview of the poster: [spider_poster_2.png]. This is just the straight output from the photomosaic program, so I've not tried to get every single image in it. I'm going to try to get at least one image from every member in the final version, but first I'd like to get some feedback on this design (including the title, border, etc). Thanks a lot.

this is pretty quality. if this is just a preview, then the real thing should be awesome. were you going to put the icons on the bottom, or no? just wondering. keep up the good work.

I sorta forgot about the whole icons at the bottom thing, but I think they would look rather tacky in this design. I probably won't add them to this one.

SO. COOL. It looks SO COOL. I wouldn't even change anything about it I don't think, overall design and layout is great. "Slick" is the word I would use... at first I didn't like that I noticed many of the images being repeated (or probably all of them are repeated some) but I think that's fine... I can't wait to get a copy of this.

It's funny how the tables turn, turn, turn, turn.

This is just a preview...how big would the final be? Are we going to be able to identify the individual images? and finally, what progtram did you use to do this?

For the final version I'm going to render it at 4500x3383px. Individual images will be between 0.28" and 0.3" high when the poster is printer at 24"x18". I'm going to try to manually tweak it for the final. I'll remove some of the most obvious repeaters.

I mainly used Photoshop, Gimp, and an open source Photomosaic generator named Metapixel.

Looking good. I'm sure it will be even better with some manual tweaking. I'm really looking forward to it.

That is absolutely amazing. The shadowing behind the spider really helps it stand out, much better than before. I can't wait till they're printed!

very cool, it looks awesome i really like the shadow affect
after u manually fix stuff and get the rid of the doubles it should be even better

this might be a decent fundraiser for the site, im not sure how much u get per poster, but it seems like quite a few people would buy it
