8/15/02---It was recently brought to my attention that the arc coordinates used in some of the drawings no longer produce the desired result. Apparently, these parameters were based on a broken arc algorithm, and it has since been `fixed' at ImageMagick. Ah, me.
On 8/7, I did place a `warning' on the affected pages with drawings using arc.
Because I currently have limited access to the internet, much less ImageMagick, I have been unable to further investigate the discrepancies and update and/or change the coordinates. Believe me, I do regret this inconvenience. As soon as possible, I will amend this. As I complete the corrections, I will remove the `warning' from the page and post updates here.
8/25/02---I replaced the arc coordinates with bezier curve coordinates for the butterfly, shamrock, and long-necked vase drawings.
8/30/02---All arc coordinates used in any of the drawings will now produce the desired result.
9/1/02---I have added the parameters for drawing a book.
9/13/02---According to a notice I received from Magick-announce dated 9/12...+Arcs are now rendered according to the SVG standard.
So, the previous information I had been cited and relayed in the update of 8/15/02 was erroneous. The parameters were not based on a `broken arc algorithm'. It was a `bug' in the ImageMagick programming. (Which I had originally surmised, and therefore, I rest my case.)
10/16/02---The URL to ImageMagick Studio was changed. All broken links were amended to reflect this change.
2/1/03---The URL to ImageMagick Studio has changed again! This is the new link
. I will try to fix all dead links in a timely manner.
2/14/03---All links to ImageMagick Studio on the individual `drawing' pages have been changed to provide current egress. ImageMagick Studio was offline due to server problems for over a week. That, or any like circumstance in the future, I have no control over.
1/10/06---Some of the images may not appear in Internet Explorer browsers. Until this issue is resolved, I advise you use the Foxfire or Opera browsers.
5/4/06---The problem with viewing certain images in Microsoft's Internet Explorer 6.0 persist. Again, I strongly recommend using the Foxfire or Opera browsers. (If the problem persists with IE 7.0 has not been tested.)
12/29/07---All images should now be viewable in the IE browser. If you still see a dreaded red X, drop me a line
.
Back to the studio.
