Kinda neat and useless!

...useless!
Hardly! You can make wall-sized posters using this. Quite cool.

Awesome program this. I liked the raster effect but I didnt want to make huge ones so I made a couple using 50mm squares.

It's pretty cool. You could probably achieve the same effect with many drawing programs. However, this program does all the hard work for you.
It occurs to me that this tool could be used to help create stencils for cabinet sideart.

Exactly what I was thinking!

I've used the program to make some wall posters out of video game characters. Here's an example:

That Mario and Luigi in the background I made using this program.

Careful, if you bring that dog to Sharidan's house, it will start knocking kids over and running into walls.

Damn! Please make me a wall poster and send it my way! >:D

Oh.... :'(

What he's not telling us is that his poster is really, really big and flat red... his house just happens to be covered in Nintendo characters.

There was a poster in that picture? :cheers:
:cheers: Haha Jeff, who would have thought your sister would get all the attention eh ?
Kidding! :angel:

Well, I would have left the wifey out if it were possible, but oh well...
We actually don't live there anymore, we just moved. I did bring the Mario and Luigi along though, I couldn't leave 'em behind. I also have made a Sonic, Samus, Homer Simpson, and something else that didn't quite turn out right (don't want to talk about it).

... and something else that didn't quite turn out right (don't want to talk about it).
Nope, you brought it up. Now you gotta tell us about it and show those pics as well. ;)
-
Well, the not quite right part is that she didn't come along with him. ;D

It was a giant pen--never mind...I'm not talking about it.
Actually it was a character compilation that I put together and instead of just printing it out on my inkjet, like I had with everything else, I took the file to Kinkos. Not only did they cost me an arm and a leg, but the print looked like total crap. I spent around $80 for a failed project that would have only cost me around $15 at home and I could have pulled off with a bit more time and patience. It was a kick to the teeth.
Oh, and the wife always follows. The big bummer about the new place, however, is that our TV room isn't as fun as the old one. It looks MUCH nicer, and it's much bigger, but the environment doesn't really suit Mario and pals. I'll probably stick them in the arcade room...
EDIT:
Oh, here's the new room, by the way:

Well that sucks. Print it at work next time?

OH yah.. that's what it's like to not have kids.. I think.. I remember... :dunno

Just downloaded a 30 day trial of photoelf for printing large sized photos. The software was limited in a few areas, but it got the job done.
I needed to print out a sign job at 4' x 3' and it was 25 pages... :o
Looks like a nice new place Jeff! :)
-
What a neat little program! A little FYI for those who want to print out some big stuff with this though... When you print the PDF file (depending on the revision of acrobat reader) you have to make sure to check the "shrink pages to fit" button.
The woman and I just got finished cutting out a 32 page Rasterbation only to find out that adobe cut off something like 3% top and bottom of the image so the rows didn't exactly line up as they should. And as Murphey's Law dictates, now we're 7 sheets of paper short of the New-And-Improved 28 page version that fixes the original problem... :dunno

I agree, that's a good looking room.
