I quite enjoyed doing this, actually. Might have another go at it some time.

>change the extension of the image to .bmp
Changing the extension by renaming the file is absolutely pointless; it doesn't change the data within and Notepad/Wordpad will open anything. I can however see the value in converting the file to bitmap format.

>>2550

I've heard .jpg is more volatile and likely to become completely corrupted, but whatever works I guess.

>>2551
Yes, that does make sense. You've missed the point however that simply renaming a file (changing its extension) does not convert the file itself. For that you have to use a program that offers such functionality; Windows Explorer does not.

Yeah polarisers are probably the only useful filter.

Neutral density and graduated have come in handy for me before.

It's not, it's one of Anton Corbijn's photos from the Control biopic.

All "YBA"s are talentless, pretentious, pricks and are best ignored. Dimbleby makes it all better though.

The YBAs certainly captured the spirit of the age though. Everything was shit.

>>2498
Well they captured the spirit of that age, whereby you can go a long way on marketing, PR and spin. The YBAs (and their dealers) were skillful spin-doctors.

Shame on /art/ for philistinism.

Emin's work has been at least consistently competent and attractive (unlike Damien Hirst's wildly uneven oeuvre) and I'll take the shortcomings of the YBAs over the dumbed-down fakery and intellectual void of Banksy anyday.

My problem with her work is that she seeks to set art back over 100 years to the era of bohemian/romantic 'self-expression' - I'm sure she's not exactly unaware of the history of modernism and conceptual art's inextricable links to poilitical/social movements (think Dada, Fluxus, Viennese Actionists) but she chooses to ignore this completely in favour of a victim-centric viewpoint interchangeable with the 'my painful childhood' memoirs flogged at every supermarket. It's possible that she's entirely sincere in wanting to reach the average person and make art accessible to the untrained by doing this, I know she bangs on about compassion and wanting to help people a lot.

I don't have a problem with the fact that her only subject matter is herself - she's certainly not entirely solipsistic.

I prefer the more rigidly conceptual and arch work of the Chapman Brothers - maybe cos I am male.

Sage because there is much more to art than defending/slagging celebrities. As a celeb she is painfully annoying. So was Dali.

>>2513
I find the work of the Chapman brothers far more accessible than Emin. Disregarding the actual reasoning behind the work, it's something I'll happily spend time looking at thanks to its oddness than a messy bed.

Obvo.

Palatino.

Times done right can look awesome. It's all in the kerning I think.

That's nice.

Its the illustrations, the fonts, the colours, the fucking crazy ideas and stupid titles, everything about them i think is amazing amazing.

Found a small folder of old movie posters. I'll post the more worthy offerings.

>>2414
Then how!?

>>2415 I did it using ways you couldn't possibly comprehend.

hahahahahaahah

>>2445 Pardon?

>>2438

Way of the world, recycling, regenerating and all that. I cant afford it at all, I own some, like I was the one to post about him suing that lad and all that all the way up there ^^, I don't agree with that but I don't think what he is doing is too bad.

>>2439

By own some I mean I knicked a large bit when pissed, but like yeah it happens. Salvor Dali used the Mona Lisa in his own way and such, people done hate on Dali really

>>2436
Tell that to a critic.

>>2441

We're all critics here ladmate. Mark Kermode posts in /v/

>>2442

In fact, Mark Kermode is the only person in /v/ who likes Mark Kermode.

I'm now leaning more towards http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_157441_langId_-1_categoryId_165492#dtab
because of:
>Adjustable spray pattern from 1.6 to 51mm for detailed work as well as for larger surfaces
>New drop-in tip design for easy cleaning
>Propellant regulator valve

Thats £50 tho, so yunno.

You'll want a double-action airbrush if you want to make anything decent. I picked up two airbrushes and a compresser for about £65 on ebay. Tbh I don't see anything wrong with any of these cheap Chinese airbrushes, they're not exactly Iwata airbrushes, but they've worked perfectly fine for me, and they're much better than my expensive, cheaply made Badger airbrush.

You can buy the ones I got from here for fairly cheap. Ebay is always good too. http://www.airbrush-pro.co.uk/

You'd also have a much better response on an Airbrush forum, I used to go to a few, they're very helpful.

Any you care to suggest? I expect this is going to be the first of many questions, and it will be nice to have somewhere to go that might answer them for me.

tbh I just googled 'airbrush forum' and joined the first two I found. This one's pretty good, I've always had a fast response to questions: http://www.theairbrushforum.com/

>>Where abouts are you trying this?

My idea is basically to try to 'interact' in a way that is sort of a homage. I have a few of his locations in mind, in London and abroad.

I would of course post pics if I did it right.

There was a guy about ten years ago who went around putting up little earth ships shooting at the invaders.

Oh, there's one of these on my front door!
I never realised that there were more of these

Newcastle have alot from the 2007 (I guess) spank the monkey exhibition in the Baltic. Manchester has a few, but the council have started taking them down. So there are a few loose tiles on the floor where they were.

I remember reading about how to do this in some wannabe anarchist 'cookbook', notably one less dangerous and misleading than the original 60s one made by the CIA.

Here it is, cba to try and find it for free, it'll be out there somewhere.
