Bartering for Web Design Skills

I saw this post on craigslist today, and I was compelled to act. I don’t know why I did this, but I laughed out loud several times when I was writing it. So, I have to think it has some comedic value. I used the occasion to test out Hencode too. I hope someone other than bumper finds this amusing. Read my response here. |
NCSoft Post-It Art
 |
BJ and I figured out how many Post-Its wide the wall was, and we gridded it out using mspaint.exe to fit the logo exactly proportional to that using one pixel per Post-It. Then, we took a screenshot of the paint grid, expanded it using “Stretch/Skew” in Paint to fit onto a sheet of paper. The other problem we had is that the pink and green Post-Its were not 3M, and the glue formula was not as refined. So, all of the non-yellow Post-Its were more likely to fall down and curl. All said and done, 864 Post-Its were used, and it took about two hours to complete. |
