Skyline Vector

Postby bigtex2884 » Sat Feb 22, 2014 3:45 am

Im looking to see if anyone has a vector image of the silhouette Austin city skyline so I can finish my project. I see them for sale on the pay sites but all I need is one image. Any help is appreciated

Austin?

Aside from that silly joke, did you try to make one yourself?
A photograph like this can be traced manually in no more than 2 hours.
If the project doesn't need an accurate drawing, it can be done in 10 minutes.
Any problems with using the pen tool?

If the venture does not need perfect drawing, it will be done in 10 or 15 min.

Not sure if ADITYA1243 was for real, resurrecting an old topic for nothing,
suggesting to use a vector drawing program on a forum explicitly about to help out people with inkscape at the first place,
or just a spammer who forgot to add a link to the end of the post to an ukrainian site.
With the profile name ending to 1234, it is likely the latter.

I used to keep a watch list for members posting worthless messages (note the frivilous message reason in the 1 click ban dialog) (assuming it's still there) which don't quite amount to spam. Most of them just want to get enough messages approved to get access to the member list (to harvest any email addresses which might not be hidden). (which I don't know how many that is --- I would guess 5)

Otoh, micro never seemed too concerned about the member list/email addresses.

Idk if you are actually approving new messages, along with banning the spammers? But if so, I would not have approved that message in the first place. And I would've put a snarky comment in the reason for disapproval!

No aproval is set for new members, other than the question if they know the tweak tool's location at the toolbar.

All right, now we have a new member with posts like

I used mostly inkscape.

i like working on inkscape.

ADITYA1243 wrote:Inkscape runs fine here, if you use blur with loads of objects it gets slow, but to say it's bad coding is total nonsense.
Well it's certainly not up to Xara's standards -- you can have tonnes nodes, transparencies, etc. and it remains blazingly fast.

ADITYA1243 wrote:Inkscape is a free and open source software vector graphics editor.
It’s a free and open source.

Some other posts too, resurrecting old topics for nothing.

Except for the new viagra site signiture and promoting.

Ttime to say goodbye to Ad 4-3-2-1.
