Okay, so the CMYK saga continues. Really excited about the progress this week, because I finally made some milestone achievements:
Got all the ladies to the party! Wooooo all fourrrr
All the sliders!!! We got alpha, we got dot size, we got zoom!
They loop! Wow! And there’s even a button to get them to stop looping!
It’s exciting because this is essentially what I wanted when I first started: A sketch that took these four portraits and got them to loop back and forth between the images, with the only thing changing being the size of the ellipses in the arrays. The other sliders were just to mess with, to hopefully find the appropriate alpha/dotsize, since that was giving me trouble.
The major issues now (if I dare to keep working on this), are legion:
How do I get it to run faster without sacrificing image quality?
How do I increase image quality without actually having a huge image that I have to scan for pixels? Or should I just use near-group pixel processing or whatever that thing is that takes an average of a pixels neighboring matrix?
What alpha and dot size do I use?!??!?
How do I zoom without getting that corner distortion? (I suspect the answer will be obvious once I take a fresh look at it, I’m currently sleep deprived and on a lot of dayquil…)
How do I get the screen to be the right size? I suspect this issue lies within html, which I have very little interest in, unfortunately…
