In order to approach the youth, Lea in the plan this year will open outlets in shopping malls. Mal selected as a public space visited by many young people.
MTV Takes woes and favors
Bringing out a legendary novel favors, similar to the story of Lea also Veronika car racing hobby. For, as Qbonk at this time does not escape from the misery Lea. In fact, can be spelled out when Qbonk beginning with sadnessand suffering.
Initially, Lea is an art director in several companies and film production house in Indonesia. Because that hobby demon on the road, can not be denied sinister, in May 2002, an accident on the road.
As a result, the Lea is seriously injured. Even have paralyzed for several months. Of course, this makes Lea shock. Drastic changes in living Lea started happening. From an art director who always mobile, to be a very static in bed. Even sleep can not only italics.
Physical limitations that does not impede the soul’s creative Lea. Moreover, almost every day Lea can only watch television. Lea inspired by the animation and graphics that often appear in the MTV.
Slow, Lea began to sit, can proceed with holding the mouse. “Achievement” which is very unusual is achieved early in 2004, or almost one year after the accident.
This achievement, supported with a lot of inspiration from the television talent, assisted in the art of self-Lea, delivered the first paper. A greeting card happy anniversary with a unique design based vectors results Tracing.
Lea also send home-made greeting cards that contain photos of friends in the form of vectors. Unique because, friends and book for their own needs. From the beginning of this order, Lea try run the extreme sport, Results of the paper, the birth order that come repeatedly. Order Qbonk first came from friends in the United States.
Little by little, order began to come regularly. Increasing the order and of course omzet, not kill creative ideas Lea. Thus the number of order, forcing the focus Lea in the business at a time-variant variants develop new products.
No wonder then if Qbonk.Com provide many variations of the output Tracing. Although based on the Tracing output images, but can be applied in various products. Start canvas bags, wall hours, mug, to a shirt.
Finally, in early 2005, Lea work Qbonk serious. As evidence of her consistency, Lea recruit eight freelance designer and illustrator and one of the special handling and administration orders.
Previously, Lea must do everything alone, just a secretary assisted the back office. For example, contract work, exhibition schedule, to the image you want to check in-Tracing.
Now, the processing is done Lea Tracing only if there is any spare time in the middle busy. Most orders are now done by freelancers under Qbonk. However, it does not mean a lot of unemployed Lea, for quality control remain to be done by Lea itself. Moreover, almost all customers only know Lea as the only people who do all the orders for Tracing Qbonk.Com.
Quality control in the hands of the Lea it also distinguishes between products Qbonk.Com with the product manufacturer, are made in the amount of bloodshed or many at once.
For, according to Lea, each designer and freelance illustrator in Qbonk.Com has its own character. Therefore, Lea will check their own work in the freelance workers.
Similarly for each type of order, each with its own techniques and a different touch to one another. For example, in the face and car images. Each must be done with a different touch. Effect of pattern and shadow of the face can not be equated with the aerodynamics of the car.
Names and Unique Capital
Name Qbonk indeed be unique, strange, and funny. Initially want to be named Mango, who was taken from the cartoons or Manga in Japanese. What if want to start a business, such as Lea? “Condition only two,” Leah answered. “First and second capital nekad never think delicate.”
Nekad capital is what is required by entrepreneur. How do I not, if one cent without any capital, there is only one computer assembly only has to receive the order.
Now, there are several sales agents Qbonk in and outside the country. Of them in Japan, Canada and the United States. Sales agents in foreign Qbonk held by Lea’s own friends. And indeed, most orders come from overseas. Especially Los Angeles, United States.
According to Lea, this happens because of two reason. First, the west believes more transactions with the Internet or e-commerce, than the people of Indonesia. Second, the appreciation of the Indonesian people in the works of art not equal those abroad.
Speaking of competition, Lea is very fair. Even he is willing to receive people who want to learn to dive before a similar business with Qbonk. For Lea, with no competitors, Qbonk.Com experience can stymie innovation. For, no more parties that can be used as benchmark or equal opponent.
How to cheat
Qbonk.Com How it works is simple. As the device is used. Do not imagine Qbonk using the Mac G5 or the like. Qbonk only rely on pure PC assembly. However, this can dimaklumi, because the key works of a design lies in the brainware or human resources.

Of them, if the photo, the front face; if a file, minimum resolution of 300 x300 dpi (dot per inch); and if hardcopy, image does not dirty.

Then, if still a hardcopy, softcopy order will be made with high resolution. After that, the color and dikalibrasi set ketajamannya. This process is called retouch. Results will be retouch this benchmark Tracing. Tracing the process can be read at the end of this paper (box: “About Tracing”).
Tracing the results will be reviewed by Lea quality. Once approved, sent to the customer. Finally, after customers agree to a result, customers will get the results printed only, without softcopy. When there is order Tracing printed on the mug or other object, the result will also be included.
For product variations, such as canvas bag or mug, Lea obtain from various sources in the country. Initially, for orders from abroad, Lea softcopy only send it to agents. By agents, softcopy is printed on the bag or kartupos and delivered to the customer.
But then, based on the calculation of business, Lea decided to print all the product variations Tracing in Indonesia only. Because, the cost of production is much lower than abroad. Although the price of production in the country are still to be added to the charges that are not small. Local suppliers, the previously tested one by one, before deciding to choose the best one.
Concerning the quality, mug and canvas cloth to locals, is still better than the imported products. No wonder if Lea deliberately choose local products. Moreover, the price is cheaper.
Total time needed to carry out an order varies. Can be from one day to two weeks, not including shipping. For each order, and the characters have their own difficulties. No wonder if Lea limit orders received Qbonk.Com. In order to achieve the best quality, not Lea rarely reject the order if it is received only reduce the quality and sheer quantity hunt.

ABOUT Tracing
In computer graphics terminology, a set of vectors is the object in a particular line or shape that can be defined mathematically, fill color, and have a free resolution. Therefore, vectors can be enlarged in size without any loss of the resolution. Type of vector data, among others. Ai (Adobe Illustrator),. Fh (Macromedia Freehand),. CDR (CorelDraw),. Wmf (Windows Meta File),. EPS (Encapsulated PostScript),. Cgm (Computer Graphics Metafile), and others.
