how to print gradient picture on t-shirt

A halftone screen is a conversion of a regular cartoon (or any image) into tiny solid dots. Each dot is only one of four colors (cyan, magenta, yellow or black), yet when you look at the cartoon from a distance, it seems as if there are all sorts of colors and shades present. Why? Because, for example, if a yellow and blue dot are printed very close together, they look like a single green dot when looked at from a distance. Similarly, black dots packed closer together look like dark gray from a distance, whereas black dots packed far apart look like light gray.

So what’s the point of the halftone screen? Well, since all colors and shades can be emulated using only the four aforementioned colors, it is very practical for printing (since most printers have only those four inks).

In this cartoon tutorial, I’m going to focus on the halftone screen gradient, rather than the entire aspect of halftone. When the halftone screen is applied to a gradient, it produces a pretty nice result, which can be used in cartoons (as backgrounds) or as patterns on just about anything. However, you can apply this halftone screen tutorial to just about any graphic or cartoon, so you’re not limited to just gradients.

Enough rambling, let’s roll:

1. Press D to set black as the foreground color and white as the background color. Press G to select the Gradient Tool.

2. Click the bottom of the image and drag towards the top to make a gradient (black to white).

3. Convert the image into Grayscale through Image > Mode > Grayscale. If prompted whether to discard color information, click “Yes.”

4. Convert the image into Bitmap through Image > Mode > Bitmap. A window will pop up; select “Halftone Screen” as the effect and click OK.

5. Another window will pop up, allowing you to choose the size of the halftone “dots,” their direction, and their shape. Select the options as pictured below:

6. “Frequency” is the amount of rows of dots per inch. The lower this number, the larger the dots will be. The “Angle” is the angle of the rows. The “Shape” is… well, you probably already guessed. Click OK.

So we got the halftone screen pattern we wanted, but we still have to apply it to our cartoon or image.

7. Press Ctrl+A to select the entire pattern.

8. Go to Edit > Define Pattern… to save the selection as a pattern. Name it “Halftone screen,” or anything you wish.

9. Open your cartoon or, in this case, a flat color to add the effect to.

10. I have a dark color on the bottom layer and a lighter color on the top layer. The top layer is what will be on the top half of the gradient. In the Layers window, click the small “Add Layer Mask” icon (3rd from left).

11. Click on the layer mask to select it, and press Shift+Backspace to open the Fill window.

12. Select “Pattern,” and then choose the halftone screen pattern that we saved a couple of steps ago. Keep “Normal” for Mode and “100%” for Opacity. Press OK.

And there’s your nice halftone screen gradient. I like to use it as a background pattern, since it’s a nice alternative to boring solid-colored backgrounds that are often found in cartoons. Experiment with this effect and see where you can use it. It’s a nice way to add a little something to a dull solid area.

eating earth for medicine | only in indonesia

In Tuban, a village in the East Java province of Indonesia, earth is used to make “ampo” a creamy snack believed to have medicinal properties.

According to Rasima, the ampo cook of Tuban, there is no real recipe to making this bizarre snack. All she does is look for clean, gravel-free soil, in the village’s rice paddies, pound it into a solid block, using a stick, and scrape rolls out of it,with a bamboo dagger. The rolls of soils are then baked and smoked for an hour. Rasima then takes the earthy snacks to the village market, where she earns about $2, to supplement her family’s income.

Tuban is the only earth-eating village on the planet. There are people, around the world, who enjoy eating sand, or kaolin, but not baked soil. Villagers believe ampo is a natural pain-killer, and that it makes babies’ skin softer, if eaten by their pregnant mothers.

As for the taste of ampo, “it’s nothing special, it feels cold in my stomach” says one of the Tuban locals, who has been eating ampo, ever since she was a child.

how to buy a new car | how to choose the right car

Buying a car is a big purchase, and Carsguide wants to help you have the best possible result. We also want to make sure you have all the information to arm you against a possible scam or fraud.

Scams and fraud

The biggest risks are from fraudulent ads or vehicles that are stolen or encumbered. To protect yourself:

• Don’t rush into your purchase. Remember : if it looks too good to be true it probably is.
• If you are suspicious the ad may be a scam, go to our information page for more help and tips.
• Never transfer money via your bank or any other company to a seller without viewing the car in person. If you are asked to transfer money ie via Western Union or MoneyGram DO NOT transfer this money and immediately call our customer service representatives on 1800 026 705 (Monday – Friday: 8.30am – 5.30pm).
• Carsguide.com.au will never ask you to transfer funds. If you are asked this please call our customer service on the number above.
• Approach very low priced vehicles with suspicion.
• Ensure you get the seller’s contact details including name, contact phone number and if possible adress or drivers licence number.
• Ring the seller and ask them questions about the vehicle.
• Always physically view the vehicle, preferably in daylight hours as it’s easier to see any damage.
• Before purchasing, check the vehicle is still listed on www.carsguide.com.au as we will remove fraudulent ads as soon as we find them.
• Where possible obtain a third party inspection of the vehicle.
• Always seek independent advice before purchase.
• Research the vehicle’s registration status, financial records and whether the vehicle is stolen. This can be done with your state/territory road traffic authority, see links below. Note: fees may apply
• Consider purchasing a REVS certificate from your state/territory road traffic authority that will give you the history of the vehicle, select from the state/territory below note: fees may apply

There are a few simple things to remember and steps to take, that will make the experience easier, and assist you in avoiding being ripped-off.

Set your budget

Work out how much you can afford to spend, and don’t forget to include registration, insurance and regular maintenance and running costs. Both for insurance, and if you’re going to get a loan, shop around to get the best rate.

Do your research

It’s important to have a thorough look at what’s out there before buying a used car. To get an idea of a model’s current market price, spend some time searching our used car ads online or in your local newspaper. Also check out our price guide to help you avoid paying too much.

Be wary if you find a used car where the price is much lower than the market suggests it should be. If you’re determined to take it further, have the car checked thoroughly. If something seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Find the right car

Browse cars by body type, make or price to find out which make and model might suit you
Go window shopping by make and model, age, location… and all kinds of other helpful details
Read our expert reviews of the car you’re looking for
Check the latest car news to see if a new model is coming — which can reduce the price of previous models when it arrives.

Contact the seller

And when you do, don’t be afraid to ask lots of questions…

- how long have they had the car
- why are they selling it
- has it ever been damaged
- what condition is it in
- will it meet a RWC
- does it have any `bad habits’

Looking at the car

If the seller is a private party rather than a dealer, always go to their home address. Don’t arrange to meet them somewhere. Check that the home address is the same as the one on the registration certificate. Take a printout or copy of the seller’s advertisement with you to check that details like the odometer numbers are accurate.

Checking the car

Make sure you have a thorough look over the car yourself, and best of all, have an independent mechanic or automotive centre check it out properly on a hoist. It could save you thousands by revealing mechanical problems and previous damage.

- always look at the car in full daylight, never in the dark or in rain that could conceal body marks, dents, rust and other defects
- check under the car, the bonnet and the interior carpet for rust and signs – such as welding marks — which may show the car has been in a crash
- under the bonnet, look for signs of oil leaks on top of the engine, and underneath. Use the dipstick to check the amount of oil. If the level is low, the owner hasn’t been looking after the car properly
- look around the oil filler cap for a white mayonnaise-like substance – this is an indication of a damaged head gasket which can be very expensive to put right
- take a look at the tyres to make sure they’re in good condition with plenty of tread
- get down in front of each front wheel and look along the length of the car. Both front wheels should be directly in front of the rear ones – if they’re not, it could mean the car has been in a crash and ended up with a slightly twisted or `crabbed’ chassis
- check the gaps between the body panels are equal – if they’re not, the car could have been refitted badly, or may have been in a crash
- inside the car, make sure the seatbelts work correctly, the steering wheel and dashboard are bolted on correctly, the front seats move properly and all switches work
- start the car with a cold engine, which will make is easier to reveal problems like poor starting or too much smoke

Test drive the car

- before you set off, turn the steering wheel from one lock to the other to make sure there is no screeching, banging, or knocking
- to test the handbrake, pull it on and then try to drive off very gently. It should hold the car back
- listen for strange noises from the engine, and don’t let the seller distract you by talking or turning up the radio
- drive on as many different roads surfaces as possible
- use all the gears, and check the gear change is slick and smooth
- make sure the clutch pedal ‘bites’ between the top and middle of the pedal’s travel

Negotiating the price

The price is the price, but there’s often leeway for bargaining.

- Make a list of any faults you found with the car, or any work that might need doing, and calculate how much this could add to the price.
- From this position, negotiate the price with the seller.
- Ask the seller what their best price is, make a lower offer and then say nothing. They can only either turn you down, accept your offer or name another price closer to yours.

Paperwork and payment

- Make sure all the paperwork is in order, and that you have original versions (never photocopies) everything … registration papers, service history and logbook
- If you’re making a payment or even just a deposit, get a receipt and make sure the seller’s full details are on it

Never give or send a seller money without seeing the car, or without getting a receipt with all the details.

Scammers may ask you to send money by Western Union or other moneygrams, or even through an address pretending to be Carsguide. Do not send them the money, and contact Carsguide immediately to report any seller you feel is a fraud. Carsguide does not act as an agent in handling buyer and sellers money, so any request to do this should be treated suspiciously.

Call our Customer Service 1800 026 705 (Mon-Fri 8.30am-5.30pm) if you have doubts or are suspicious about any communication from a seller or another buyer.

properties of nigella sativa | global healer

do you ever hear a medicine and suplement tha could heal any type of desease but death? nigella sativa is the answer, this medicine arrecommended by moslem prophet Muhammad SAW 1500 years ago and trugh modern medical test it has many benefit that could improve our body. you should consume it 1-2 capsules per day with very very low cost and you will soon got healthy.

The seeds of Nigella sativa Linn. (Ranunculaceae), commonly known as black seed or black cumin, are used in folk (herbal) medicine all over the world for the treatment and prevention of a number of diseases and conditions that include asthma, diarrhoea and dyslipidaemia. This article reviews the main reports of the pharmacological and toxicological properties of N. sativa and its constituents. The seeds contain both fixed and essential oils, proteins, alkaloids and saponin. Much of the biological activity of the seeds has been shown to be due to thymoquinone, the major component of the essential oil, but which is also present in the fi ed oil. The pharmacological actions of the crude extracts of the seeds (and some of its active constituents, e.g. volatile oil and thymoquinone) that have been reported include protection against nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity induced by either disease or chemicals. The seeds/oil have antiinflammatory, analgesic, antipyretic, antimicrobial and antineoplastic activity. The oil decreases blood pressure and increases respiration. Treatment of rats with the seed extract for up to 12 weeks has been reported to induce changes in the haemogram that include an increase in both the packed cell volume (PCV) and haemoglobin (Hb), and a decrease in plasma concentrations of cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose. The seeds are characterized by a very low degree of toxicity. Two cases of contact dermatitis in two individuals have been reported following topical use. Administration of either the seed extract or its oil has been shown not to induce significant adverse effects on liver or kidney functions. It would appear that the beneficial effects of the use of the seeds and thymoquinone might be related to their cytoprotective and antioxidant actions, and to their effect on some mediators of inflammation.

how to make a deal | improve your negosiation skill

Deal making is a skill that some people seem to have and some people clearly don’t. Whether you are trying to buy a new car or simply haggling over the price at a neighborhood garage sale, there are times when you might just find yourself wishing you felt a bit more confident in your approach. If you think your skills could use some tweaking, consider these tips so you can learn how to make a deal with confidence.

1. Step 1

   Go into the exchange with a clear goal in mind. To make a good deal, you need to have clear expectations for the outcome. Are you determined to get you boss to agree to a flex time schedule? Do you want a used car salesperson to throw in an extended warranty for free? Be absolutely certain of the outcome you want to get from the deal you intend to make. Know what you want, what you don’t want and what you are willing to bend on.

2. Step 2

   Know your defense. You’ll need to have a well defined argument to plead your case to the party with whom you intend to make a deal. You can’t convince someone that something is in their best interest as well as your own if you can’t clearly communicate the benefits to them. Know your reasoning and make sure you are able to express it to the other party as clearly as possible.

3. Step 3

   Anticipate the other party’s counterarguments and reasoning. Have a response prepared for every counterargument you anticipate. A great way to prepare for this is to ask a friend or family member to play devil’s advocate as you rehearse your own talking points. This will alert you of anything you might be overlooking and allow you to enter the deal making process well prepared.

4. Step 4

   Focus on the deal and not the person if things get heated. In other words, don’t take it personally. Whatever gets said as you strive to make a deal, keep in mind that the other person wants to emerge triumphantly from the whole process just as much as you do. It is bound to get heated, but the frustrations you both have are a result of the struggle for each of your to get your respective ways. Keep your cool so you are better able to negotiate.

5. Step 5

   Remember the old adage, “You attract more bees with honey!” This rings true, especially when you hope to make a deal with someone. When you are cordial and friendly in your dealings, you are much more likely to convince someone to bend in your favor. When you approach the deal with aggression, you will have a much harder time getting your way.

When it seems inevitable that your efforts to make a deal will not be successful, don’t be afraid to come to a compromise. It isn’t the same as making a successful deal, but at least you won’t go home empty handed.

how to make your own archer bow weapon

Making an archer’s bow is a project that is not hard to do and is inexpensive. People have been making and using bows for as long as man can remember. There are several types of wood that can be used for bow making and most of them can be easily found. Making a bow with your own hands can be a rewarding and learning experience. You will be proud of your creation and can use it whenever you are hunting or competing.

1. Step 1

   Go to your local Home Depot, Lowes or lumber place and find a board of 1 by 2 by 6 of red oak.

2. Step 2

   Examine the red oak and make sure that it has more thick late growth rings than thin early growth rings. Your bow will break more easily if the wood has too much thin early growth. Your piece of wood also needs to be as straight as possible with no knots and isn’t warped on either side.

3. Step 3

   Find the center of your piece of red oak by measuring the entire length and then divide by two. Mark a line straight down the center, longwise, from one end to the other. Try to be as accurate as possible.

4. Step 4

   Use your rasp to shave the ends off of the long piece of red oak. You take the rasp and start cutting about 1-inch from the center, shaving from the inside and working towards the ends. This is roughing the belly. The ends need to be rounded to about 1-inch.

5. Step 5

   Glue the 10-inch piece of wood to the center of your long wood. This is called the riser. Use the clamps to keep the riser on the center of your long piece of wood. Glue will come out from the edges. Just wipe the extra glue off.

6. Step 6

   Mark the corners so that you can round and blend them with the belly of the bow. Use the rasp for the rounding of riser. Now, you have the handle for the bow. Finish by smoothing from one end to the other with sandpaper.

7. Step 7

   Notch both sides of each end of your bow at a 45 degree angle and string your bow.
