Interesting study. Visual cues are needed to align the drawn elements of the characters.

Some of those comic strip characters I have not seen in over 55 years. Thanks for the link and the look into the past.

Similar, though less offensive results to much of the music I hear on the radio being made by what I assume are deaf people.

I moved this thread to the Off Topic forum as it does not apply directly to Xara Xtreme or Pro.

And Bill I moved it on to the Graphics Chat forum where it is perhaps more on-topic.

I remember once having an art instructor getting all us students to close our eyes and while he told us a story we were to draw with a continuous line using movements derived from how the story made us feel. I thought it was fun at the time. My fun was then shattered when he proceeded to mark the results. The people who drew the most recognizable literal drawing of the story were given high marks. ie the people who peeked and had no imagination were marked highest.

Seeing those cartoon faces is interesting but I wouldn't say any of them are 'better' than any others. Some are more 'acurate' -- but not better.

I remember in art class we did a similar exercise , we were not blindfolded. Only we were not allowed to look at the paper.
