(yes, that is adobe pdf!)
I got two things recently: my manuel for PhotoShop, and a slew of
really cool FX. I noticed in the manuel that I could save images as
PDF's, so now everybody can zoom in and out to their hearts content,
though due to webspace / bandwidth requirements I reduced the resolution
from 300dpi to 75dpi. 300dpi is what FASA uses in their artroom for all
their pictures, so it should do for our t-shirts...
Anyhow, I went a little nuts with the filters, since I was looking for
an alternative to the traditional halftone pattern that makes stuff look
like a crappy newspaper clipping. The distortion does not have to be so
obvious, but I kinda like it. I also posterized the image down to 8
colors (3 bits), which simulates what a t-shirt would look like.
I may also have better control of text form and layout, since I found
out I have PageMaker on my laptop. So laying out text in certain shapes
may be possible- I'm thinking a hexagon, with the list information in rows
underneath- the whole shape would vaguely suggest a big virus.
