You could say that...Say what you will about Southern Belles, but, in not just my opinion, none are as good looking as SoCal cheerleaders.

USC, UCLA, > San Diego State, Cal State LA, the list goes on... Those southern girls look inbred. I think cosmpolitan offspring generally tends to be much prettier and healthier, probably because you have a wider and richer gene pool. >>>>>> "Skip" == Skip M <shadowcatcher@cox.net> writes: > >> So does USC...

SignatureSkip Middleton http://www.shadowcatcherimagery.com > Alabama trailer trash.... > > http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/35381018 What's amusing about this pic is that there's only one of those girls that I would consider pretty. Yup, the one sitting right in the middle holding the child. The rest fully embody the word "homely". Homely and clumsy (I bet) yet cheerful and proud/happy.

The one on the far right in the front (the Fit to be Tide) girl is not bad. A friend said the one beside her looks like one of the Wayans brothers. >> Alabama trailer trash.... >> http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/35381018 > > What's amusing about this pic is that there's only one of those girls > that I would consider pretty.

Remind me never to let you arrange a marriage for me. Bret/Annika, I think a different downsampling algorithm would produce better results (make the girls look prettier). Pre-blur Lanczos with post-sharpening would be my best guess. Which algorithm did you use? >>> Alabama trailer trash.... >>> http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/35381018 >> >> What's amusing about this pic is that there's only one of those girls >> that I would consider pretty.

I'd be interested in hearing about other sharpening methods like the one you describe if you want to e-mail me. >>http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/35381018 > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > I'd be interested in hearing about other sharpening methods like the one you > describe if you want to e-mail me. Hmm, if anything I think this picture has too much sharpening. Look at the legs of the UAM woman on the top row far right, or the cheeks and forehead of the woman top row 4th from the left. Both seem oversharpened. Here's a study of down-sampling methods by Bart van der Wolf. Of course it depends on the pixel dimensions of the original. My e-mail is on the Organization website above. http://www.xs4all.nl/~bvdwolf/main/foto/down_sample/down_sample.htm Did you try Photoshop Bicubic Smoother and Sharper, then decide Photkit Sharpener was better? >> Alabama trailer trash.... >> [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Homely and clumsy (I bet) yet cheerful and proud/happy. Very american! My guess is you wouldn't complain too much if any of them were "bobbing for apples" S. >Alabama trailer trash.... > >http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/35381018 Yuck. The only one of them I'd look twice at is the 3rd from the left in the top row. SignatureW . | ,. w , "Some people are alive only because \|/ \|/ it is illegal to kill them."
