You're not talking about the Christopher Priest novel, are you?  (Being very poor with mathematics I never quite understood what the circle distortion looked like)

Who??? I don't know any Chris person. I was talking about inverted colors and personalities of the Cast.

That makes more sense, I'll admit.

(I might add that the novel is the #2 entry in Google, after some song)

It's actually magenta, since that's what you get when you take the cyan plate out and rotate it 180 degrees.  Surprising.  I thought that someone here would get the Inverted Jenny reference (http://www.postalmuseum.si.edu/exhibits/2f1a_inverts.html), especially with that counterfeit showing up on an absentee ballot last November...

All you do is take a pic of a cast member of DMFA then go to paint and invert the color.

So Bizarro Amber is a giant Pretzel, roaming the dessert planet of Arruckus assisting the freedmenmen in their quest to control the most valuable commodity in the universe, the beer?

Quote from: modelincard on January 19, 2007, 10:41:22 PMMainly the eyes...and ink blot (?)

The ink blot is actually her eyes--specifically the cyan in her eyes.  Take the cast page image and rotate it 180 degrees.  Alexsi's eyes should be where the ink blots are.

(those of you with art degrees may omit the following paragraph; you already know this stuff)

In older days, making full color prints involved putting a sheet of paper into multiple printing presses, one for each color.  For images with many colors, the image is broken up into the three primary colors Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and a blacK layer (hence CMYK).  The image is built up by running the paper through the four presses.

The effect suggested is that some careless printer has taken the image off of the cyan press and turned it upside down before taking it to the other three presses.  It's a fairly common error, often difficult to detect, as in the Inverted Jenny (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_Jenny), previously mentioned.

P.S. Gives new meaning to ``eyes up here.''
P.P.S. Need help quenching autofluorescence in nudibranch brain

Edit: A more obvious invert of the cyan plate which would certainly not make it past the printer would be this:

Well, that's what I've been doing, but that was mainly intended to be a joke.  What he's gothtk14 probably meant was to invert the colors (like in a photographic negative).

Confusing things even more is that if you rotate the gamut by 180°, you do indeed get something like a photographic negative (ideally).  Unless you know what I'm talking about (and probably why I'm wrong), forget this paragraph.

I think I'll just write up a synopsis of what I did, why it's funny (or at least interesting), and step-by-step instructions for doing the same (http://www.needsfoodbadly.com/invertstuff/).

(I say in there that if I've forgotten to address something, please let me know.  That means in the PM function or via the e-mail address right under my avatar, not in this thread.)
