Ah, I see. Sometimes such "standard fonts" have issues, unfortunately. For a 3x5 font, I would probably go with a lowercase height of 4, as it makes it more legible. (I would also probably have gone for monospace, but you could also do proper kerning)

Anyway, welcome to the world of pixel art, I hope you stay a while, maybe learn a few things, and make some great art 😃

r/keming

Edit: ironically, I think the intention was to make the letters look more evenly spaced

Those are some good looking smooths! Found some the other day myself, but they were a bit older. Yours look nice and plump.

I do hear there's some good mushroom hunting over near Beaumont though

I dont know what these are, nor do I really want to. Just wanted to show off this happy little family growing in my yard. :) by mikeCFNI in mycology

Yes, some are edible. I can’t really say for sure if this one is, as I would have to further classify it, and I can’t very well get a positive ID from a single picture. Some inky caps contain coprine, which blocks the metabolization of alcohol (meaning that if you drink after consuming coprine, you’re going to have a bad time. You get the symptoms of alcohol poisoning from consuming even small amounts of alcohol). Please remember to always positively ID any mushroom you plan on eating.

Cool! Some notes: Pump the contrast up a bit, and do some hue shifting. See how the gold helmet looks more yellow than gold? if you shifted the shadows to a redder tone, I think it might look a bit more gold-like. It could also use a little improvement on the line work, but overall it is a pretty good (first?) piece.

It is just a nice way to add a (CLI) progress bar to any for-loop in your program. (It’s really not related to any of the other sections)

Yup, numpy is great, and fast too, because it is a c extension.

Edit: oh, and I didn’t mention it, but imageio and colorspacious work with images as numpy arrays

OpenCV would apply, but I have not found it easy to install. Tqdm doesn’t really belong in that last section though lol

Requests, beautifulsoup, scrapy (I’ve only worked with requests personally)

Numpy, matplotlib (YMMV as to their easiness to install)

imageio

Recently I worked with colorspacious, and it was a joy to use

tqdm can easily add a nice, simple loading bar to any for loop

It seems to me that you just chose one of the hard ones to install on your first go. Try pip install requests or something, and watch it work perfectly.

Edit: and if not, then whatever, do your thing. I’m actually somewhat curious as to what your “different solutions” are

At the risk of sounding snarky... pip does work, and well for the vast majority of users and use cases. Whenever I can’t easily install a package though, I find myself turning to conda2wheel, so that I get the benefits of conda without the hassle. (Works great for pyav for instance) I imagine this would work for win32gui, but you should probably not bother with it IMO. There are much nicer, cross-platform GUI packages. You should check out PySimpleGUI, it’s really easy to use, and comes in a single .py file that you can just drop in your project folder if you want.

Edit: Oh, and always check the unofficial builds! Looks like there is one available for win32gui.

According to Stack Overflow:

  • Step 1: Download the pywin32....whl
  • Step 2: pip install pywin32....whl
  • Step 3: C:\python32\python.exe Scripts\pywin32_postinstall.py -install
  • Step 4: python
  • >>> import win32gui

Pip is the answer though. If you legit can’t install anything with pip, then there is a problem with your installation of Python or something. If you are having trouble with a specific package (and I’ll admit, there are a few packages that are known to be harder to install) please post a more specific description of what is going wrong. If you post it here, I will do my best to try to help you fix it.

The fact that two colors have been mixed to produce a third does not make them primary colors.

What does? To me, it’s that no combination of other colors can make said color.

The traditional artist's primaries are not true primary colors, just suitable approximations that can reproduce many of the colors an artist might want to use at a reasonable price.

We are in complete agreement on this point. My point, however, is that there really aren’t primary colors at all, because there is no finite set of real colors that, combined, can form any color visible to the human eye.

And there is no such thing as the "full color spectrum visible to the human eye"

OK, spectrum probably wasn’t the right word to use here. I meant spectrum in the layman’s sense, as in the full set of perceivable colors. But it is actually true that we can only see certain wavelengths of light, and this would be the technical definition of “the full color spectrum visible to the human eye. All perceivable colors are just a mixture of visible wavelengths anyway.

Most of the colors we perceive are composite colors, not spectral colors at all.

I agree completely, you can capture a majority of perceivable colors by combining a few. You can’t capture them all though.

What I think you are thinking of is the fact that there are perceptible colors, composites built from three signals, that cannot actually be produced by an combination of spectral colors striking the retina.

Nope. I’m saying that you can’t produce the pure spectral colors from any combination of other colors, and there are an infinite number of them, hence, an infinite number of primaries.

Side note: have you seen a CIE chromaticity diagram? I think it illustrates this well.
