21  Economy / Services / Re: 0.8 + 0.2BTC Bounty: 2 2xB1 size pencil-sketch style vector PDFs from JPGs on: June 20, 2013, 02:23:24 AM
Wow, I like them all so far.  Note that background should be removed; it's people I want Smiley

And each one is 2xB1 (ie. for me to glue one above the other in portrait mode).

Will get my wife to make artistic commentry Smiley

Cheers!
Rusty.
22  Economy / Services / [DONE]0.8 + 0.2BTC Bounty: 2 2xB1 size pencil-sketch style vector PDFs from JPGs on: June 16, 2013, 07:56:32 AM
Want some line-art style (vaguely Aha's Take On Me) oversize pics of my wife and me, for upcoming 80's theme birthday party.  Have photos[1]; hand-drawn or converted to vectors by filter, all OK.  Each one 2xB1 size (ie. 707mm x 2000mm): I plan to use Officeworks[2] to print them, and glue each one together myself to hang on the walls.

Best one: 0.8BTC
Runner up: 0.2BTC
Others: Kudos and thanks.

To be clear: deliverable will be 4 B&W PDFs, each one B1 size w/5mm edge, for 150DPI printing.  See [2].  Enough edging to glue top to bottom.  License will be CC-BY, copyright held by you.  Feel free to add small, tasteful attribution at the bottom if you wish.
No huge hurry, will wrap up in about 2 weeks or when satisfied.  If they all suck, will still award 0.2 for best effort Smiley

Feel free to ask for feedback.

This worked great last time, so thought I'd try it again[3].

Thanks,
Rusty.

23  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Instawallet introduces new approach to instant payment: Green address technique on: August 03, 2011, 01:08:17 AM
OK, I would suggest a comma-separated set of prefixes for green-addresses, and optionally a "gad" URI as well.

I don't think interpreting them as prefixes is such a good idea. Someone can come up with an address that matches the prefix in ways you didn't plan.

Yes, but the buyer has to trust them, so it only makes me vaguely uncomfortable.  Still:

But as jtimon points out, it seems indeed like a good idea to interpret them like Firstbits does.

I'm much happier with this, too.  I hadn't seen firstbits before; neat!

Cheers,
Rusty.

Going further, it might become necessary at some point for a merchant to communicate which green addresses they accept. For this I propose the additional parameter "green_address_details=URI", where URI points to a JSON document describing acceptable green addresses. The format for this document should be extensible, as to allow both static addresses as well as pointing to yet other places (maybe some from of global green address directory?).

OK, I would suggest a comma-separated set of prefixes for green-addresses, and optionally a "gad" URI as well.  This has some nice features:
  • You can specify that you accept any address by simply listing "1".  This might be used to indicate slower service for non-green addresses.
  • You can specify the full hash, if it fits.
  • Since you trust your green providers anyway, you can trust them to sort out distinct address prefixes.  They'll only be annoying their own customers if they choose one which clashes

Cheers,
Rusty.

Done.

Thanks!
Rusty.
Sadly nothing received: http://blockexplorer.com/address/1Awyxgawq52mkYmiAQ9v4sLPXxStVsSGy8
Guess it decided to show up now, 1 day later heh.

Bad connectivity here, I'm travelling, so maybe the transaction didn't go out until the next day?

And there was a typo in the poster, but I fixed it myself.

Thanks again!
Rusty,

RAR archive containing the edited .pdf + and .svg and .png (4000x5000):
http://solidfiles.net/d/5444/
Can make a bigger PNG if you can't figure out how to do it yourself if you wish.

That's awesome, thanks!  Please provide bitcoin address....

Cheers,
Rusty.

It really isn't "possible" to make it an SVG due to complex graphics (van, phone, etc)

Converted the .pdf to a higher dpi png image (text should be much more clear, and perhaps the logos at the bottom, not sure): http://i.solidfiles.net/9127d.png
Tell me if it solved any of your problems.

edit: definitely made the logos at the bottom much more clear

Sure, but I was really after a hi-res of the modified version Smiley  Should work OK as an A4 poster.

Thanks,
Rusty.

My post on a graphic design task (paying BTC) didn't get much attention here.  I'd prefer to post it somewhere more appropriate, and for that I need to get out of Newbie-ville.

Thanks!

Should be easy for someone with graphic design skills.

I want a copy of this mock poster (the one on the right) to print and put on my wall, but it's too
low res:

   https://i.imgur.com/coeUe.jpg

If someone can redo it in a scalable format (SVG as readable by Inkscape ideal) and put it under a CC-BY license, I will pay 1BTC.

Here's the original one: http://cms.met.police.uk/met/content/download/12179/56479/file/Van%20Poster.pdf

Thanks!
Rusty.
