Talk:Posterization

Cleanup
Someone more familiar with this topic should edit the article: currently, there are two "definitions", some kind of intelligent merge is in order. Also, perhaps some more information would be desirable. 131.111.8.97 14:52, 11 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I agree. While the first paragraph starts with "posterization occurs", the second line goes back to "can be achieved", and the third back to "sampling range not good enough".  While some people undoubtedly will try to achieve this posterization effect, the much more common case of this term is going to be a negative connotation.  So, posterization is something that HAPPENS TO YOUR DIGITAL PICTURES, instead of a goal you are trying to achieve.  The emphasis should be placed accordingly, imho.

 * There's really nothing major wrong with this article, although "pheonmenon" or "effect" en lieu of "process" might be more accurate. --Belg4mit 04:34, 19 June 2007 (UTC)


 * No, there is something major wrong with this article. It's a jumble of different uses of the term.
 * A photographic process used in making posters.
 * Use of the photographics process for artistic effect.
 * A type of artifact in digital images.
 * Deliberate creation of the same type of effect in digital imaging.
 * I'll take a shot at a rough patch.

Color quantization
Color quantization also describes how the color space of an image is reduced, typically to a reduced palette. — Nahum Reduta [ talk | contribs ] 14:23, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

History of Posterization
This article makes no reference to the history of the technique and the early methods used. The Kodalith/Color-Key (3M) technique used on a considerable number of rock posters and record sleeves is ignored. It's early use is film production is also omitted.
