hey all, i'm a new poster but have been lurking for awhile.

anyways i was wondering if anyone could make a pattern for this picture

http://www.flickr.com/photos/zephos/4277266505/sizes/o/

the preferable format would in a colored .pdf (as the ones i've worked with in the past are probably the easiest for me)
if not, maybe a .pdf and then like a bmp, or something along those lines to check overall.

anyways if anyone has some time that would be awesome! im not too concerned about size or # of colors (nothing too crazy) I was surfing the interwebz the otherday and i just love this picture.

Thanks!

Had a quick try, although with 100 pixels wide there are 336 colours, which are likely to increase with size... And it needs a better size, its WAY too pixely. Included the pic anyways...

that looks great, but i agree size might need to go up.

im not too worried about it being somewhat pixelated just because when you back up.. it will blend together better.

thank you for your time! if you get more, what does a bigger size look like in comparison?

Both are pretty big, but hope this helps anyway! ^^


EDIT: Just noticed in your post that you prefer coloured PDF's and I've done these in B/W - if you still want coloured let me know and I'll redo them for you :D
