Hoisting a flag - librelab

Graffiti

By default Gimp uses 72ppi to generate the image, it is not suitable to create a 6x2 feet banner. Was told to generate an image with atleast 300ppi for better results or else the banner will be pixelated/jagged. An inexplicable affinity towards being either too fuzzy (or) too simple was involved in generating a greater than 300dpi image (DYI freak). Read a bit about, what its all about and generated 1200dpi image
Simple rule
72'' X 24''    => 300ppi
36'' x 12''    => 600ppi
18'' x 6''    => 1200ppi
be sure to have a machine with loads of memory, had 8GB mach, even that was not enough.. really

NB:- Pixel counts can be expressed as a single number eg: 2M pixel or as a pair of numbers eg 1600 × 1200 pixels = 1920000 = Number of pixels.

Print size to pixel calculator

To print a banner of size of say 6' X 2' with a 300ppi, how many pixels are needed?

Pixel to print size calculator

Have an image with pixel dimensions 1600 × 1200 pixels with resolution 72 x 72 dpi what would be the print size in inch/mm 
PPI calculator
divide the width of an image( in pixel) with the width of an image(in inches) eg: 1600 (pixel) / 72 (inches) = 22.22 ppi - an extremely pixelated image

Creating an impression is not a priority here (as is seen)

The UI has been changed from a single and simple GTA02 device to a more muddled/messier front page which is a sketch form of devices (and its byproduct) lying around the desktop(if it falls in that group). The mere intention of such an approach is not to entice others with a color display rather giving a black and white impression of what its all about and what it gets involved with. Though lot of work is yet to be done hopefully will implement what is needed. Felt better to display the whole scenario which makes the mobile device(gta02) important. Its not a standalone rather most work involves the IA32 machine which deserves mentioning and this is how I felt is/was right. The Idea is to change the image of respective device on mouse hover as well as display the config of device in a tooltip. This is mostly done for and on firefox. Don't have time to do the adaptation work for other browsers.

I made use of PS for slicing and saved it in html format. Vala!!! I don't have to create a table it does for you.
The overlapped text in the tooltip was rectified by specifying the line height , setting it equal to the font size for #tooltip

adding
background: white none repeat scroll 0% 0%; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;
for table td messes up with the default drupal settings so add it to table#Table_01 td

Tested on firefox: 3.0.11 and everything is working as expected.
