I\’m not really a talented sketch artist(
I don\’t know how to do it) but I always enjoyed watching professionals make sketches during tennis and football matches they showed on TV. Hey! I can still make nice sketches though; Not with pencils, but with one or two mouse clicks! And they look as good as professional sketches.
Here\’s a nice little site that has really interested me. Dumpr.net provides several features to tweak pictures; one of them was Instant Sketch, which can be used to create sketches from pictures.
All one has to do is upload a picture. Once uploaded, Instant Sketch will generate a sketched image of the original picture which you can download or mail it to friends.
You can either upload images from your computer or provide the links of images on the web.
One good use is for people who wish to remain anonymous on the Internet. Pictures can be and are easily misused on the Web. So if you are uncomfortable with sharing your pictures in forums and other social networking sites, just get a sketched image of your photos and show them off.

Light travels faster then sound……we all have learnt it in school. But I feel money travels faster then the two. How else can you accept as true that a high-end system at at Bill Parish\’s GTT Audio & Video shop costs a staggering $350,000! As the V.Y.G.E.R. Indian Signature turntable churn out the best tunes, the MBL 101E Radialstrahler Reference speakers ($49,900 per pair) with distinctive woofer, midrange, and tweeter technology radiate sound with 360 degree dispersion. The only thing missing here is the amplifier. So complete this family with a 5,000 watt 9011 MBL amplifiers ($75,000 per pair). Bill caters to all music lovers as well high-end home theater installations.
Operating only by appointment only; prices start at $10,000 for individual components and $50,000 for complete systems. You can also opt for a number of more affordably priced trade-ins. So gear up for a hard rock!
