Visual Arts - December 2007

I have a Sony Ericsson phone with a 3.2 mega pixels cybershot camera. The thing is my pictures come out very randomly and I just cannot get the colour sussed on it. If I am in a darkish room, the pictures either are too dark despite the flash, or they come out very grainy and yellow.

I really don't know how to improve my picture taking as sometimes the pictures are perfect (mostly outside).

Any advice please?

I often see the little pixellated "space invader" character from the old Taito arcade game on all sorts of media, such as in ads, on t-shirts, on posters, etc.

What I want to know - is the character regarded as being in the public domain? I.e. can people use it on t-shirts and the like, or do they need to ask Taito? I need an actual answer, as "better safe than sorry" is obvious.

I have a lot of small family photos in Jpeg formats and I would like to enlarge them into 800x600 wallpaper size. Kindly inform me whether any free software download is there to enable me to do so. The enlarge should have same clarity and sharpness

So I was taking a shower and i started to notice something outside my window moving, and i didnt think anything of it until this morning i went on the internet and i saw my nude pictures posted everywhere on the internet! The worst part is that i didnt shave and every part of my body was hairy! I am mortified! Now all the guys at school will never want to have sex with me! :( What do I do?

I have a quick question.
I was hoping to start a webcomic and I have everything ready except one thing, borders. I'm using a simple ruler for the borders and it isn't cutting it...
I will put it into Photoshop, and I notice the borders are way off, tilted, or uneven.
Is there a tool out there that can help? Or do I just need to try again with a ruler?

My family has an original Norman Rockwell portrait of Colonel Sanders in its possession. I was curious as to a reasonable market value of it.

Anybody have any ideas?

I like using the Pilot G-2 pen. I like this pen, because it has a rubber grib on it. I work with parts that are oily at times.

Hey, I have just bought some flake white oil paint for Winsor Newton, and it says it contains lead, and can cause kidney, or nervous system damage and/or failure. What? All I wanted was some white oil paint. What should I do now? Are there any other brands that do not have lead in them?
