[fnftwo] Important Notice

I just saw my FNF mail and saw a message from "amazingnepalxgmaildotcom".....It had to do with Microsoft....I remember reading something about a virus in messages sent concerning Microsoft.
 
I did NOT open any of the links, and I unsubscribed the member.....it sure doesn't sound like this is a "creative PSP member".....so please take caution.
 
I may be mistaken about this, and I'll be the first to apologize, but until then.....

Today is Tuesday, and you all know what that is!  Scrap Day!!  Even though we'll be on hiatus for two months, we can still send through scraps, though it doesn't have to be on a Tuesday to share an element.  We all love making them, so  let's see if we can find more tutorial links during the next two months.
 
Have a great Tuesday everyone!

Disegni di piante? Non so se li preferisci a colori o in bianco e nero,
vettoriali o raster, stile realistico o fumetto. Se ti servono giusto
per fare delle prove tue personali, o se ne vuoi fare anche uso pubblico
(o anche commerciale).

Comunque puoi dare un occhio qui, dove ci sono delle immagini di
pubblico dominio:

Vai nella sezione 'Plants'.

Un'altra fonte potrebbe essere Google Libri: non mancherà sicuramente
qualche libro di botanica con belle stampe.

That was 'true' eons ago when monitor technology was in its infancy.

Current monitors can easily go to 1600 x 1200, that being [on a 19" -
displayable at 18"] some 110 dpi.

As far as bothering to change the dpi setting, why?

Monitors read PIXELS not dpi !!!

I can set an image to 1 dpi and to 10,000 dpi image, put them up side by
side on the web and they will be exactly the same - unless I've resampled!

I bought one of these, with the bulk feeder, to scan in a few thousand
slides.

It paid for itself on that one job but I now want to sell it.

Obviously there is Ebay but this is a fairly pricey and specialised
item. I think the lot cost about £1500.

Does anybody have any better ideas?

Hi Peter

I am afraid i can't help you much with a value on your
scanner...................

but I was rather hoping that as you have actually used this unit
extensively you might be able to pass on some information about it! -
Rather than the twaddle that some spotty faced oik who has never seen
one outside of its box let alone actually used one would spout when asked!

I have a big digitisation project coming up at work and am trying to
persuade the bean counters that we should invest in a decent slide
scanner and bulk feed unit.

How did you get on with it? I assume that you ran it with the software
supplied (I assume that Nikon actually supply scanning software!)rather
than via Photoshop. I take it that the Nikon app scans and then saves
files as it goes rather than trying to leave them all open within
Photoshop or CS. Is the scanning ap any good?

Any problems with the bulk feed mechanism. I guess that any slightly dog
eared kodachromes will have to be remounted into plastic, but how does
it cope with ultra thin Leitz mounts and old GAF mounts that are as
thick as paving slabs? Did you run any glass mounted slides through it?
Or slides with sticky labels that are lifting at the corners etc?

Did you find any 'gotchas' - those less than endearing short comings in
the software, scanner design or functionality that you only find out
once you start using it in anger?

Any pointers would be much appreciated - and good luck with findig a
buyer. :o)

regards

What do you have to digitise are they only 35mm slides and what do your
require as the end result?


As a slide scanner may not be the answer.

I take it you mean digitising the slides by shooting them with a camera?

I have a Bowens Illumitran which I have used in the past to digitize
slides very successfully with a Nikon D2X.

Thats what I use, results are satisfactory, quick to use, small file
size etc.

Slides or tranny stuff that's for critical use are scanned.

But for most yes just copy them with the Bowens with the bulbs.

Very rarely does the scanner get used.

The software is Nikon's own and can save to BMP, TIFF, Jpeg etc. It is
clunky but works. Loads of options for things like dust removal (does
a double scan) and enhancement which I never used.

I scanned the lot into uncompressed TIFFs, about 80MB each, and then
batch-reduced them in Photoshop into ~ 7MB Jpegs - simply because I
*hope* that PS does a better job of it than any other software out
there. It is certainly practically impossible to see a difference with
the naked eye, at 100% zoom.

I didn't have problems with any slides, 1970s onwards. Damaged ones
won't work, sure, but I didn't have any of those. I did scan glass
mounted ones too. The feeder takes about 50 at a time.

I think if you will have problems then it might be with the very thin
paper ones. But for me everything worked.

The software is a bit odd in the way it works but once you suss it, it
just runs and runs.

The quality is stunning - as good as the film itself ever managed.

I am uploading some images here

http://www.zen74158.zen.co.uk/ed5000/

One of these, file3012.jpg, was used to compare the ED5000 against
another Nikon scanner costing about £5000 and neither myself nor the
shop could see any difference.

>Any pointers would be much appreciated - and good luck with findig a
>buyer. :o)

Well, mine will be for sale; looking for about £500 :) In original
packaging, with cables, software, etc.

I was quoted a min of 50p each for commercial scanning, and one firm
wanted £10 each!

My email is above but replace o with 0 and 0 with o.

during various procedures in photoshop, like converting a bunch of
large raw files to jpg's, or using the magic wand on a large image, i
get a message "out of scratch memory" or a more generic "this
procedure cannot be done" (or something like this)

i have a separate hard drive being used just for photoshop's scratch
memory and have devoted 70% of free memory to photoshop (i'm running 4
gigs in windows xp pro) ....

i have turned off almost all ongoing programs (anti-virus etc) which
indeed does help ....

any suggestions to provide more scratch memory?

Have uploaded a shot 'THE NON-CONFORMIST' (http://www.oz-
greetings.com.au/photo). It shows many matchsticks in Australia's
outback. Each stick ought to have a shadow . I tried to paint it in by
hand - impossible. Does anyone know of a way to do it?
Thanks for help - Klaus and Rusty

Well....

Duplicate the matches onto a new layer.

Use levels /selection etc. to make matches black on a transparent
background.

Use free transform to align black matches to original image, scale and
give direction of shadow.

Use opacity etc. to blend shadows into image.


There are other ways too...

I just created a website for structural and graphic designers called
www.dyeline.com

The primary objective of the site is to allow people to download free
folding carton dieline templates in Adobe illustrator CS3 PDF format,
as well as DXF and DFT formats. Users of the site do not have to
register to download available files, but they have to register to
become a member of the forum. If you are looking for a specific
dieline template, email me at:

ralph@dyeline.com

Thanks,

Ralph

during various procedures in photoshop, like converting a bunch of
large raw files to jpg's, or using the magic wand on a large image, i
get a message "out of scratch memory" or a more generic "this
procedure cannot be done" (or something like this)

i have a separate hard drive being used just for photoshop's scratch
memory and have devoted 70% of free memory to photoshop (i'm running 4
gigs in windows xp pro) ....

i have turned off almost all ongoing programs (anti-virus etc) which
indeed does help ....

any suggestions to provide more scratch memory?

I understand pressing the F1 key in PSE7 is supposed to get me online help
from the Adobe website. However, when I press F1 the URL that appears in my
browser's address window (Firefox) is the following:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PhotoshopElements/7.0_Win/search.html?AH_ION=true


All that gets me is a browser window which displays this link:
http://community.adobe.com/help

This is a generic link to ALL Adobe products help. I believe F1 should
instead be taking me to this URL:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PhotoshopElements/7.0_Win

Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

Greg

Complain to Adobe?

The Adobe web site is redirecting the URL. The problem is on their
end, there is nothing you can do about it from your end.

Why do you question my seriousness? Was my initial question really
so .... simplistic? If so, it shows how little I know :)
The camera was taken from the very warm indoors to the cold outdoors
and condensation formed on the optics. This cleared over the course
of 15 or 20 minutes so that later images from the same session were
fine but a few of the earlier ones were messed up. It is one of those
earlier ones that I am working on. Thanks for your suggestion.

I have been using APE 2 and am thinking about moving up to 5, 6 or 7 (used).
I have heard that Adobe has gone the authentication route that makes the
newer versions harder to install as used programs. Versions 2 and 3 required
no such authentication. Which versions do, which don't, and if they do, what
must one do to get them authenticated.

Thanks!! Lar
