| Quote (Cubist @ Dec. 29 2011,15:10) | Richardthughes, I am dismayed at the cynicism you display with your question, which carries the implicit presumption that I might actually have fabricated the entire graph, including the data-points on which it is based. However, I must admit that in these days of Photoshop and Faux News, such cynicism is at least partially justified. Indeed, it would have been relatively simple for me to have faked the graph, had I so chosen, by means of ruthless exploitation of the Pen tool in Photoshop. The basic idea would be, start with a straight line; add a whole lot of corner-points; and shuffle said corner-points up and down, as needed, until the final faked graph takes shape.
Of course, if I had actually done that, it would have been a Faux-worthy lapse of intellectual dishonesty and a vindication of the standards we at AtBC have come to hold dear. TARD. |
I love your graph - and thanks for explaining how to do it!
