When i tried to recreate Wallace's triangle pattern i was struggling with finding the correct values for the shapes.
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=17328

Here is an interesting lesson for painters by Mike Rooney, which uses a trick to create everything with just five values.

www.youtube.com Video from : www.youtube.com


I made a little chart as a memory aid.

@Wallace: could you please edit my first post and embed the video for me ?
I tried with the toolbar and also tags but both methods didnt work.

Sure thing. :bigthup
The trick is.
Once you have copied and pasted the video's URL into the provided space,
remove the "S" from https.

As can be seen in the example,
when Insert Web Video icon/link Image is used.
