- greves, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Sounds neat but dead link?
- iisbum, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Working fine for me.
- mojaam, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I had an idea about this for a long time but it just seems all wrong and bound to fail. Looks to me that with the standard package, the artist will intentionally dumb down the work and for $35? Are you kidding? The ultimate package is not all that either. They could have used better and BIGGER samples, I mean what can you see from those tiny samples? Not much. The fact they put deviantArt as a place to use this was kinda funny, any avid dA user knows about vector art and knows how better it can be in comparison to this. This also remind me of the http://www.youareart.co.uk service. Maybe I should break out a fancy vector service business. But for now, I'll stick to studying computer science and vectoring as a hobby.
- brownmajik, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You make a good point, but what if they do all this with some one click program they invented? Then $35 / second wouldn't sound so bad! But I do agree, need larger samples!
- The0philus, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0The website claims "...You’ll get your portrait in 72 hours". I ordered a Raster Portrait and it has been over two weeks and still nothing! Quite frankly I feel scammed right now. I sent $55 over paypal and have nothing to show for it.
- The0philus, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0ok I finally received my order and it was pretty good. still not happy about the delay though.
- montyzuma, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0try http://www.popart.me.uk - great art and half the price
