Half submerged in a block of ice?

Bought a copy from ebay and everytime I got it out the battery had died and I had to go find a replacement. Found a nikon one for a tenner somewhere and never regretted it, still has the original battery in it after a year and never misses a shot.

Are the 2 that can't be seen 16 bit images rather than 8bit? I think it's something like Image>mode in Photoshop.

Do any of you lot know much about printer settings? I want to build a big poster which will be printed on multiple sheets of A4, then hung in clip frames next to each other like a kinda mosaic. My printer prints edge-to-edge so I created my poster in photoshop, then cut lots of pieces out...

that's the one! Cheers Matt, if this place had a reputational scoring system yours would be increasing right now.

I don't think so it had some 'creative' name for it like hive or roll or some crap.

the name of the site I am looking for? I saw it posted on the forum a few months ago and it seemed one that a lot of members were familiar with but for the life of me, I can't find it. As far as I remember it was operated by flickr and was like a collection of the best photos from the last...

I honestly don't think you'd have a problem finding takers, I'd do it and I know a couple of others who would too. As has been said though, unless anyone is trained, you're basically playing a game of risk and hoping for the best. I'm sure there would be plenty of great shots but not the...

Whether you're doing it in work time is irrelevant. What's relevant is how much your skills are worth as a photographer against what they are in the role you're employed to do. If you worked as cleaner but taught yourself webdesign and then got asked to do the company site for minimum wage...

I like 3 the best. His/her butt in the air and the definition in the shoulder muscles just scream power and magnificence. I could imagine one of them poses being used on one of those crappy carpets/rugs that they had in many flea markets in the late 80s along with an eagle and an Amazonian woman...

If I went outside within 1 mile of my house with a camera I'd find myself mugged.

Hah, the liver is the one I'd probably struggle most to get £17 for.

In photoshop you can set the dimensions with the crop tool by typing them into the boxes at the top toolbar once you've selected the crop tool. Example: if you type 6x4 and just drag the crop guide over the Mum's nose it would crop and then enlarge the image to 6x4. Conversely, if you drag the...
