Here’s a larger, different version.

I started out with just a picture of me

I used an effect in Photoshop to make the colors stand out more, and then I basically just traced every color that stood out.
Then pen tool is kind of hard to master and I’m still not the best at using it, but it’s the primary tool I used in making my vector.

I had tons and tons of layers, more than I had ever had in a Photoshop project.
 

It took a few nights, and a lot of hours of work, but I think for my first try it’s pretty good.

If you search for Vectors online, you can find a whole bunch of really professional looking ones, I found all of these on Deviant Art.

So that’s a grand total of 10 times.
What would the world be without Will Smith?
I’ll tell you…us humans would be enslaved by the aliens & robots as well as Dr. Lovelace & his giant spider.
Thank you Will Smith, for all that you do. You are truly…my hero.

Patrick Dempsey = Dr. McDreamy = Sigh

Everyone should watch the show The Office, if they don’t already.
It’s probably the funniest show ever…besides Arrested Development.
It is my favorite show, and I never miss it. I also have been watching the episodes on DVD everynight since Conan O’Brien isn’t new, due to the lame-o writers strike.

I was infact, Dwight K. Schrute for Halloween.
I made a nametag and everything…and it was awesome.
My friend Kory was Kurt Cobain.
And Matthew was…a ghost.

Last, but not least…anyone that is cool, should listen to The Bloodhound Gang.
Rock mixed with rap & hilarious lyrics, they are like no other band.
And that Jimmy Pop is quite the looker.

I got my car back Sunday, and I went to lunch at Dalman’s with my friend Alex.
It was a grand ol time.

In other words, my weekend sucked.

The site I chose for complementary colors is http://www.nbc.com
It uses the colors blue & yellow and I think it looks really good.
Not only does it look good, I can watch my favorite show, The Office on this site whenever I want, so that’s always good.

http://www.ym.com is a site with a triad color scheme.
It mainly only has the colors white, purple, and orange.
It’s pretty basic and simple, but it looks good.

http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorials/Photoshop/1 was the site that I think is closest to being a analgous scheme. It mainly features a few different shades of blue, and grey.

A site who’s font I don’t really like is http://myyearbook.com
Not only is it a cheap rip off of Myspace, it is just really crappy looking. There are a bunch of different types of fonts, and different colors that don’t really look good at all. It’s pretty much nothing but ads and you constantly get these messages from creepy people you’ve never met.

After twelve years, six Pennants, and four World Series wins, beloved manager of the New York Yankees, Joe Torre, has decided to walk away from the franchise.

Owner, George Steinbrenner, gave Joe Torre an ultimatum on the day of Game 4 of the ALDS. He said “If the Yankees don’t make the second round of the playoffs, Joe is gone as manager.”  Some disregarded this, because Steinbrenner has made similar threats before, and when the Yankees lost Game 5 and had to go home for the Winter, some expected Steinbrenner to fire him at that very moment. Instead, they waited 2 weeks later, to have the annual meetings in Tampa to discuss the team.

They offered Joe a one year contract that was worth $5 million, plus bonuses for making the playoffs. Torre declined the offer, ending his historic era as Yankees manager.

As a Yankee fan, I am deeply saddened to see Joe go. He has been a great manager, and it is no way his fault for the recent Yankees postseason woes.
He had every right in the world to turn down that offer. After all he’s done for the franchise, Steinbrenner still treats him like crap. Torre brought respect to a club that was once knows for all fighting, arrogance, and corruption.
Torre is one of the most respected men in baseball, even by Yankee haters.
He does everything with class, and has handled the pressure of New York with ease.

The team will be very different year, with Mariano Rivera and Jorge Posada possibly gone.
Also, Brian Cashman has difinitively stated that if Alex Rodriguez opts out of his contract, there is no way the Yankees will negotiate with him.
And of course they will be looking for a replacement for Torre.
Some of the possible candidates are Don Mattingly, Joe Girardi, and Tony LaRussa.
I really have no idea who will be the next manager, but I have no doubt in my mind that no matter who it is, they will never be as good, or as classy as Joe Torre.

So, today pretty much sucked.

The Yankees lost, and are now out of the Playoffs. No more Yankees till April. This makes me sad.

Joe Torre’s most likely gone as coach, which probably means free agents Jorge Posada, Mariano Rivera, & Andy Pettite might be gone as well. A-Rod will probably try to opt-out of his contract, but honestly who besides the Yankees has the money to pay A-Rods insane contract? ($225,000,000, the highest paid athlete in history)
I didn’t know Clevelands pitching was so dominate, but now I do. The one-two punch of Sabathia & Carmona are a couple pitchers you don’t want to see pitching against your team.
I just hope they can go into the ALCS and beat the crap out of the Red Sox. I don’t think I could deal with them going to another World Series.

 Over in the NL, the NLDS is set with the Rockies playing the Diamondbacks. I don’t think anyone saw that one coming. I was pretty upset that the Cubs didn’t win. Those poor fans havent seen a World Series win from them in 99 years. It’s because they’re cursed…of course.

So, even though the Yankees are out of the Playoffs, I’m still gonna watch. I’m hoping for a Rockies – Indians World Series, and I hope the little known Rockies can pull off a win.

I will soon be going into Baseball Withdrawl, so I’m going to have to find something else to hold me over till Spring Training.
