Found this on digg:

Recolored is a software application that helps you with the otherwise difficult and time consuming task of colorizing black and white photos.

Here’s my attempt:

Original Original

MarksGreyscaled + Markings

RecolouredResult

The result would have been more accurate, if I spend more time on marking or choosing a photo with higher contrast. Give it a try! The beta is free for non-commercial use. Windows only but works under wine.

I received my first and second mail from the Apple Student Developer Program yesterday. Here’s what I get monthly for the $99 USD membership (on top of the hardware discount I used to buy my iMac).

Received on the same day was the stuff for December. The latest beta of OS X 10.4.3 (the first revision with Intel traces, as they call it) and the DVD for December.

Today is my last day of school, officially. :tongue_kao: Finals are coming in two weeks, but I am only worried about JLPT (this Sunday) for now.
