I can't print an animated gif -- this is going to be blown up large and printed and framed!

Living Room / Any photoshoppers feel like trying to hauntify a house photo
« Last post by mouser on September 29, 2015, 08:40 PM »
This is a long shot, but here goes..

I live in a 1929 five-story brick condominium.  Each halloween i get the idea to turn one of the photos i've taken of the building into a haunted house image and frame it and sneak it up in the lobby for fun -- but I just don't have the skills for it.

I found a couple of nice photoshop tutorials (the latter of which has a great download zip with helper resources).


What they do:

Screenshot - 9_29_2015 , 8_41_46 PM.png


Here's a thumbnail of the original image I have (its aprox. 4200x2750 RAW; it looks very dark here but the RAW format has full detail to make it bright):
Screenshot - 9_29_2015 , 8_28_45 PM.png

And for fun here's a nice HDR image I made from the raw image to celebrate winter:
Screenshot - 9_29_2015 , 8_28_57 PM.png

The full RAW image (16mb) can be downloaded: here.

I can't offer much by way of compensation but I could certainly offer *one* person $50 if the result was good enough that i used it -- i know it's not much.. but if you are interested in making a serious attempt, maybe contact me first or post here so that we don't have multiple folks expecting to be compensated.

DC Gamer Club / Re: Sniper Elite 3 is 70% off on steam this weekend
« Last post by mouser on September 29, 2015, 01:56 PM »
All 3 were fantastic games.  Sniper Elite 1 may be too old to hold up well against modern games, but SE2 and SE3 are very playable -- and were never about cutting edge graphics.

For those with friends, SEv3 is a fantastic 2 player cooperative experience (two players on 2 dif computers).

I'm getting the same error, must be an issue with Imageshack as of today.. I'll look into it.

EDIT: Looks like the ImageShack website is currently down. Should be back up soon.

Living Room / How to make a sandwich from scratch
« Last post by mouser on September 26, 2015, 04:21 PM »
This is from a youtube series called "How to Make Everything", it shows a guy spending 6 months and $1500 to make a sandwich from scratch (growing and harvesting vegetables and grains, making cheese, pickling cucumbers, butchering a chicken, etc.):


As someone who has done a fair amount of wood work, this hits home for me -- it's hard to justify making most things yourself -- the time and money dwarf what it would take to buy something new or used.  There is a lot to be said for learning the skill to make things yourself, but be prepared for a lot of inefficient work.

Considering all of the good ideas here, i think the consensus wisdom is not to try changing the name, except perhaps to focus on the acronym CHS rather than the longer name.

Living Room / The business of web ads - fraudulent at its core
« Last post by mouser on September 24, 2015, 02:44 PM »
Long article about the business of web ads, the fraud involved, and the consequences:

“I can think of nothing that has done more harm to the Internet than ad tech,” says Bob Hoffman, a veteran ad executive, industry critic, and author of the blog the Ad Contrarian. “It interferes with everything we try to do on the Web. It has cheapened and debased advertising and spawned criminal empires... About 18 months ago, he set to figuring out how much of his inventory—ad spaces for sale—was fake. The answer mortified him: “Two-thirds was either fraud or suspicious,” he says.

DC members ewemoa found a bug in search, where if there were more than 1000 results, the topmost relevant ones were not always being shown.
I have attempted to remedy that problem.

Let me know if you find any other oddities in search -- I will attempt to improve it as we go forward.
