I need some words in my posts…. so I’m just going to post free articles below that I’ve not even read through.

************************************

Photo Mosaics are actually a very new invention, believed to be first created in the 1990’s. Photo mosaics have become widely popular around the world, though, for their unique appeal.

A Photo Mosaic is a photo made up of many smaller photos. To say it another way: A photo mosaic is a photo that has been divided up into small squares or rectangles. Each rectangle is the replaced by a separate photo that closely approximates the color the rectangle was.

A picture is worth a thousand words in explaining what a photo mosaic is like, though. Go to Google Image Search or Yahoo Image Search and search for “photomosaics”.

One of the first creators of photo mosaics, Robert Silvers, patented the production of and name photomosaic. However, Mr Silvers patent does not give him the exclusive rights to make photo mosaics. There are many companies around the world using various methods and technologies to legally create photo mosaics.

There are several ways to create or obtain photo mosaics.

The first method is tedious, to say the least. Using photoshop, or any other editor, you can manually cut and paste images together to create the larger image. This technique is very time consuming, though, and there is really no need to employ this method.

The second method is to use photographic mosaic software. There are many versions of free software that can help you much more easily create photo mosaics. Of course, there will be at least a short learning curve, but most are not too difficult to use.

The third and final method to obtain a custom photo mosaic is to pay a professional photo mosaic designer to create on for you. This is obviously the most expensive option, but it will probably also give you the highest quality finished product.

Really, it’s all up to and what you need and want! Happy photo mosaic-ing!

Photography is so much fun!

So easy to do once you learn how to read the guru’s various ways of explaining how to use photoshop.

A break was good!

Gone to Port Dickson with some friends.

Stayed in Glory Beach Resort.

Pardon me, drop the ‘L’ in glory. We didn’t even dip our toes into it.

For the most part, we’re 7 clueless people on the beach.

All our meals and locations to visit are guided by GPS!

KL people huh.

For our last meal, we ate at Dirty Mee.

Sounds interesting?

Like somekind of ham sap mee…..

And after travelling there……

WENSTER!

Hehe, caught ya ‘all attention didn’t I?

Pulau Redang fever isn’t over yet!

You have to give credit to the marvelous amazing art of Wendy.

Taken with the powerful Sony T300, this baby can snap your personality and see who you really are inside!

Woolala is horny.

Dolphin has always wanted to be Mickey Mouse

Tomagogame had always wanted more hair

Elise wishes to be more blonde and outstanding

Hugo the alfro got his earlobes knotted together

Founder of Shoutoutlounge.com…. Well, at least now you know what this guy is capable of.

And saving the best for last….

Lisa has always wanted those sexy pouchy lucious lips! Not to be left out, the mole that brought her all the wind water (feng shui) she needs! At least that got her the ‘best’ title.

Now, if you wanna kill me for putting these pictures up, let’s meet up in BRJ for dinner.

Korea Trip Day 3 | Nami Island Cutie!

authored on Sunday, July 1st 2007

Korean Beauty

Yay, finally something interesting to post! We were taking a group photo and my tour guide was holding my camera. He purposely took this picture upclose cropping the others out. Hehe, isn’t she pretty?

We found out she’s an upcoming newscaster. There was this guy who she’s following around as they find a good background for their shot.

I believe there are a few more shots somewhere in my collection… while I search, just post your thoughts k!

Korea Trip Day 3 | Some Misc Cool Ewww Wooo Things

authored on Thursday, June 21st 2007

 Yummy, Dummy, Lummy, Mummy! Cooked worms! Ewwwww….

Cooked Worms
The monument below is made of stones. No strings attached ;)

Would you believe if I told you that the stones are just piled one atop another without any adhesive help?

Monuments Of Stones

Of course you won’t, because I didn’t. Still, it looks odd though it’s unique. It almost seems that the construction workers there have nothing better to do.

Then again, all over Korea, you will see signs encouraging you to recycle. There’s a park somewhere where everything is made of garbage! Though not very pleasant to look at, but to see what they can come up with from junk, it’s amazing!
Quatz Stones

Stone. Durian stones. Or quatz… if that’s the way you spell it.

Nice to see,
Not nice to hold,
Buy already,
You want to throw!

Korea Trip Day 3 | The Commercialized Caves Trip 3

authored on Sunday, June 17th 2007

On the contrary, there are some nice pictures that the digital camera can take! Below are the rest of them.

Korean Beauty

It looks like some kind of a haven to swim in. Where you can walk in and splash around all you like. But in reality, this is live size. You probably can’t put your head through the biggest hole there. It probably is a nice place to rest in if you are a Korean rat. ;)

Korean Tunnels

Ah, another haven and paradise. Rent a boat and go into the unknown! Yea, right. Once again, though you can put your head through this, your body can’t make it past that stalamite.

Korean Dungeons

This one is similiar to the picture shown a few posts ago. Look at how it had evolved! When I look at this, I feel like stuffing it with golf balls or something. It’s just nature giving me the creeps.

Korean Signs

And so we came to the end of our journey of the commercialized cave. “For a moment, look back, and then good bye” would indicate there’s a beauty to be seen only when you look back because as you look in front, it looks like an ordinary cave, but there’s one big huge giant stalamite dangling down for all it’s worth.

It is said that lime stones are sensitive to the human touch. And I mean it in a bad sense. If you touch a limestone, somehow the alkaline of your skin will react with the lime stone and make it stop ‘growing’. For instance, if you touch a stalamite, you can be sure a few weeks or months down the road, it won’t grow anymore. Yup, the power of the human touch.

Now go touch someone. hehe.

Korea Trip Day 3 | The Commercialized Caves Trip

authored on Friday, June 15th 2007

 Have you been on a Nature Trip and find out that it was already commercialized? No more mud, a constant roof over your head and stalls on your left and right?

Below are a few pictures of the pile of digital photographs I have. These pictures were taken before entering the cave and I simply am glad that I took them before entering for inside, almost nothing very much nice to see besides stainless-steel bars and stainless-steel stairs and stainless-steel fence.

Korea Caves

Ahhhh… Stalagmite. A term unheard of since secondary school. Looks like some mutated beast mouth. Hah, better cut down on those horror shows.

Korea Caves 2

Wow, this is really errie. It looks like a brain of some alien. Clearly gives me the chills and goosebumps when I see this pic.

Korea Trip Visit

This one is nice. Looks endless but it probably ends where the light shines.

There are two more posters coming in the next post!

Korea Trip Day 3 | More And More Flowers (& economics?)!

authored on Friday, June 15th 2007

These two flower pictures are of the best of the four flower pictures IMHO. Still, despite the cold, an attempt has to be made to snap these pictures up.

Korea Flowers

The last blog post was all about economics and ‘no such thing as a free lunch’.

Maybe this is something God is trying to say to us humans!

Salvation is free but Jesus has to die on the cross.

Adam had the whole Garden of Eden to himself yet he has to rule over them, give the animal names and probably communicate to them!

The earth can take care of itself if left alone, but it’s our human responsiblity to not polute it beyond repair, in fact we have to conserve the only earth we have!

Is there something for nothing? Napoleon Hill says no. Marketers say no. Economists say no. But in essence, one can trade something for something and ROI can become the factor. Sell services for money, use money for service. Economical cycle.

Money can always be earned back. Friends & opportunities cannot be earned back. On the dying bed, no one says, ‘let me see my bank account one more time’, but ‘let me see my friends and family just one more time’.

Ah, some revelation is coming out of this lonely blog. Gagaga.

Here’s the second picture. Thank you for ‘tolerating’ me with my rant. I’m just giving you some service ;p

Korea Trip Day 3 | Innovative Jam Despenser

authored on Monday, June 11th 2007

Innovative Jam Despenser

This is jam. Yup, in it’s true form and if you notice carefully in the middle of the jam holder, is a cross like mark. Looking at the pictorial instructions, if you turn the jam upside own, and squeeze both ends together, jam will disperse!

It might not fasinate you but these are the little things that make Korean who they are. Yea yea, Japanese have their technology and Chinese their traditions, and Korean with their innovation. No need knives, or messy tearing, just squeeze and spread.

There is another word for ’spread’, I just learnt it yesterday. Disseminate. So it’s good, disseminate the jam all around the baked flour for optimum taste sensation ;)
