Brisbane POTN: General Ramblings Thread

seqacc salon this w/e, so i will be there all weekend. It's a photographic comp between seq clubs. i have 23 entries, but the competition is very tough. I just hope some of my piccies are up there in points.

@Rob - I've shot both of those in the past. I'm looking at going to the Medieval fair for sure - just not sure what day though. I did the train show two years ago, and the year before that also.

I can't work out if this is the same Medieval fair that was at Musgrave park and has moved to Nudgee College or what?

al, you have to resize you photos down to about 800x600 pixels max.

and on top of the 800px width/height restriction, when uploading attachments, there's also a size limit (100kb for images and different for other things I think?).

Ok thanks for all the info, I might need to get a website with all the strict requirements.
Stay tuned

Peace to all

AL

i havn't resized my size limit, only the pizels. I just go into image size, change the pixels to somewhere between 600 and 800 (make sure constrain proportions is ticked), depending on my croping, and then use save as tool, to save into a folder that i then upload from to photobucket. I don't take any notice of the actual file size. Lately i have made them a touch smaller.

Oh... when you're hot linking (to an external site) you only need size proportions... rest is net-ettiquite (sp.) as far as I'm aware... like nothing ridiculous. The 100KB limit is for attachments (which uploads to the site).

Hey guys, I got a equal second in one of PetKal's contests - The Old Ways of Doing Things.

On the topic of image sizes I have set my IMatch script to resize the longest edge to 800 pixels. I have two different version of this script, one produces images 90-150K and the other produces 150-320k, they just have different compression settings coded into the scripts. Can show you how this works in June. I'm moving more towards the smaller version as disk space on my server is limited.

well done greg

Thanks Tina.
What'd I say, what'd I say? If you mean he script stuff you need IMatch Image Management Database for that. I honestly think everybody should use some form of DB.

Here's a duck from our trip into the Roma St parklands.

I think Tina means the linking over text thing? not sure.

Great stuff with the shot in Petkal's contest

Hi guys and gals. Long time no post. Been absolutely flat out the last couple of months with uni and havnt evne been able to touch the camera until this weekend when i went to a hill climb event at Mt Cotton. You can see the photos from it here: https://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthre​ad.php?t=311815 (better ones down the bottom).

hey Ospi, next time you going to an event like that give us a yell.

will do, i was at the event with the motorsport team though so it kinda didnt cross my mind. the next event is on the 8th or july for a quick heads up though.
