Hello Vincius,

While reading this I came to this thought. How far fetched would it be to instead of square pixels, enable it to turn them into arbitrary shapes? I am thinking of diamonds, stars, circles etc. And when following this line of thought, how feasible would it be to create 4 (or more) layers of color like the old fashioned color separation rasters. No doubt it would be heavy on the machine handling loads of objects, but it would enable us designers to play around with moire and color separation layers.

It would certainly be worth the wait of generating this kind of stuff and bring it to a printer. Weighting the pixels colours and resizing the object to that weight should be fairly straightforward. Set these object as <use> clones with the weight of the colour and drop the result in 4 layers with a slight offset (thinking of CMYK simulation here).

I don't want to keep you from your task with this fantasy, but it would be way cool and something that would make your pixelation scan really useful to me and probably others. So first set yourself to the task at hand, but maybe if you have some time left and are still inspired you could play around with this idea.

In any case thanks for the effort you put into this wonderful application and making it even better. That goes for all people involved in this project b.t.w. I thoroughly enjoy working with Inkscape which can match itself in many respects with commercial applications and in quite a few surpasses them.

Cheers,

Jelle Mulder

Impresionant work, but it make some unhappy. love the pixels circular, rouded, with some margin to make crayzy effect y love... but the work is the work.

Hello ppl, I just finished the task for week 2 from my proposed timeline. This task was related to create a graph from an input image. This graph will be used by later steps in the Kopf/Lischinski algorithm. I'm attaching a zip file containing 4 input images and a set of output images representing the intermediate steps of the graph generation. There is a README.txt file inside this zip with further information. The next step of the algorithm is to improve this graph further more with three heuristics. I'll try to implement this step during the next two weeks. If you have any question, just ask and I'll be happy to answer your question. --Vin?cius dos Santos Oliveira https://about.me/vinipsmaker
