What d'you think?

[DS MaNiAc]

I'll be brutally honest: it sucks. It just looks tacky...sorry...

[dukkadukka]

ignore ds_maniac, the big meanie! it's lovely, if you spent a bit more time smoothing over the outline of mario it'd look even better still :)

[rizz]

Yeah, its pretty decent apart from the edges being a little rough. Good job.

[Bluejay]

nice, follow above advice and it'll look even better. My only quirk is the amount of these ipod shadows pictures people are making.

Might want to search Warppipe - there was a whole thread with millions of thse types of things going down about half a year ago.

Its a nice Idea...been alot of iPod ad spoofs recently.
But the black silohoutte (sp?) of Mario looks a bit fuzzy. Was this done in Paint?

If you re-do it and it looks better, post it up. I've put every iPod spoof I like on my Nano...

[Maiky-NiSuTe]

5 min you can tell. next time spent 15 min!

[xanikseo]

I started from scratch. I spent 10 mins making this one though.

I think this looks a little bit less rough on the edges, and the iPod is held loosely in the hand. I'm not sure if this is better.


Anyway this is what I got:

Its nice. But Mario is hard to silhouette because his main features are his face and hat. Unless you were to get a side view, its kind of hard to do.

Nice work guys, I would suggest tracing mario with a pen tool to make a sharp silhouette and some crisp anti-aliasing on the text to make it look a little smoother :)

[xanikseo]

I can't see your images tie.nano. I only get "You can't link big pictures...".

[Raining_again]

tie.nano, they are awesome i love how the ipod is on yoshi's tongue, just plain awesome :D

[demonmike04]

Wow, nice job tie.nano .
Your 2nd attempt is better Xanikseo, and as ramar said, Its hard to silhouette the Mario poses that your doing. So try Ramar's suggestion, it may work.

[xanikseo]

I gave it another shot. This mario is a complete silhouette, there are two different versions:

lol... that looks like it should have an age rating attatched to that one...

I mean... i know you can wear your iPod whilst doing all sorts of physical activity... but crikey!

When Walt Disney died, they held a lottery for who got what. They wanted his head on ice, but I was lucky enough to outbid Jim Davis and get his hands. They have a couple of swastikas tattooed on them, but aside that they're all good.
