Gay Marriage II: Putting speedbumps on the Slippery Slope The slippery slope fallacy is the biggest argument against gay marriage... when that doesn't work they turn to the writings of "Mr. Tolerance" himself... the Apostle Paul.

Low-tech whining in cyberspace…

It’s Vectors for me…

February 16th, 2003

Interesting Discovery:
I use photoshop for most of my graphics. Then I open up the .PSD files in Fireworks to make .gifs (they just look better to me.)

  • Since fireworks is vector-based (rather than rasterized), I converted the .psd file I rendered in poser into a .png (Portable network graphics).
  • Then I imported the .png file into flash for the front page of EricBrooks.Com
  • Now it expands & contracts with no loss in quality. I couldn’t do that if I had imported a .jpg. Plus the flash file is only 39kb. Using a .jpg that file size (800×600px) would have put it well over 100k.

    It’s vector graphics from now on for me….
    (Just a little something to keep you busy while I delete a bunch of files here…)
