@seanfreiburg and @haugerbr how did we get those watered out logos?

haugerbr commented 8 years ago

I believe @pzavala was the one that originally did that. I'll ask him or he can comment on this issue.

Found it Steps to accomplishing this task:

Go to Pixlr.com and choose the Editor option Open image that you want to grayscale On toolbar Adjustment > Desaturate Adjustment > Curves ... Set the left point between 50% and 75% depending on how dark the image is Save image and resize if necessary Done!

We were going to write a tool to automatically add sponsors by providing a picture and a link so you could always do that to make this process less manual in the future.

Thanks! If I have time I'll add in an admin/eboard feature to submit pictures and delete pictures. If not I think that's something easy for next semester. (Or more likely I'll just do that during winter break)

For the automated one you can look into using ImageMagick for the greyscale by using the ruby wrapper for it Rmagick.
