photomorphic 1 iStockphoto Discussion: BM changed ... , right???
Thanks JJRD! I agree with the other posts, I would just like some consistency in the BM. Maybe just a simple blend of downloads and age with very gradual tweaks if necessary.

TheDman 5 Off-Topic: 2008 USA Presidential Campaign Thread

Posted By CarlKeyes:

Wow, just when you think grandpa's hit rock bottom he finds even more amazing depths to his BS.


He's broken his own word again and is now targeting Michelle!

Yesterday I was beginning to feel sorry for him, today I hope he crashes and burns.



I missed the part of the article where McCain said anything about Michelle.

Ryuneo 6 Design: win xp 64 bit software problems
You would have thought that the software companies would have sorted the software out for 64 bit before the operating system was released! They must be losing out on hundreds of thousands of sales. The main software that i need is the dragon dictate sofware, at the moment it is taking me ages to type due to my disability. Can anyone recommend any dictation software that will run on a 64 bit system? I have had a look but can't seem to find any. I don't want to resort to goin back on a 32 bit system but think i will have to if i can't find any software. Thanks.

jsnover 7 Critique Requests: PHOTO: Would this one pass?

I don't have any specific tricks except to be very careful about sharpening halos and remembering that you can be more and less aggressive with noise reduction by painting in shades of gray on the mask. Especially when the area is out of focus you can get very aggresive with noise reduction.


Sometimes, if you have some area of really bad loss of detail, cloning from a different area can be a good solution - one breast feather is pretty much like another if the lighting is similar. Good luck.

What kind of age range were you shooting for? I personally would prefer older models (40-60), not just the standard 20-30 year old females.

gswd 11 The iStock Steel Cage: factoryonfire vs. jkeitch

Yep. They are allowed, but I would definitely recommend contacting via site mail before challenging to make sure that they are up for a vector battle. I myself am no vector person. Barely holding my own with photos.





Anyway, here is one of the recent vector battles that I watched. Aaltazar vs. mstay

chemc 12 Battle Royale: nbodine vs. rosen_dukov (F)

Hey gang... let me clear a few things up...


Firslty I just want to say the guest judges were hand picked before the competition started.
They were intensly trained even though I feel without training they are more then adequate judges and have celebrity status as designers for a reason. They werent announced to the end for a surprise not for any other reason.
And more importantly they done an amazing job and called it exactly how it is.


To answer the question that my comments were biased... Un fortunately there has to be a winner and my comments only backed up my scores and what i seen in the designs.. one of the main reasons guest judges were bought in so no one could say judging was biased. I never ever judge a person I strictly only ever judge the designs so does every judge. So I was a little shocked to here that.


I think theres no doubt that nbodine is the clear winner... I canvas a lot of people for there input and its been pretty unanimous.


Rosen I know your upset.. and you have every right to be... but just be mindful of how & where you direct your anger.
Ive sent RD a few sitemails but I want to say it openly that you are an intregral piece of this community and I only hope that this definately isnt your last battle and it really hurts us all to know your upset.


Please guys though ease up on him... we do respect your comments but please lets try to keep things positive.


once again HUGE CONGRATS NIKKI

rogermexico 13 Articles: Who's Who – The iStock Staff
Meet the iStock staff. Our updated Who's Who is your guide to the people operating iStockphoto.


So, this isn't exactly new - I posted something similar about a year ago. We've had a fair number of things happen in that time though, so I figured it was time for an update. Again, this isn't an exhaustive list, but I think it covers the people who are out in the daily public life of iStock.

Fitzer 15 Deutsche Diskussionen: moin hamburg!
moin, moin arne und alle anderen fischköpfe,

ich bin dabei!!
habe gerade eine hammer location in bahrenfeld am start.
altes fabrikgebäude in l- form mit total leerstehender 1. etage.
unterschiedlich große einzelne räume und der der oberoberhammer... eine riesige, wirklich riesige, grosse, helle, fantastische halle.
also könnte man sicher einen kleineren raum anmieten für hohlkehle etc. und/aber auch eben die nutzung der monsterhalle.
ansprechpartner habe ich. das gebäude soll im jäner versteigert werden aber erst muss das teil mal jemand haben wollen und wenn dann doch dauert es bis zur abrissbirne eh noch jahrzehnte... siehe mojo... sick.
ich fahre diese woche nochmal hin und mache ein paar fotos.
wenn jemand mitgehen möchte, ruft mich an (peitschsound)!!

hummel, hummel
euer fitze

Briss 17 Digital Photography: Can´t understand these lens prices...

With the new Nikon lenses on the market, the 14-24mm and the 24-70mm, wouldn´t it be natural that the older 17-35mm and the 28-70mm drop in price? This isn´t happening, in fact what I have noticed in more than one online store in Europe (eg, Portugal and Germany) is that those older lenses are either practically the same price or, in some cases, more expensive than the new ones!!


I'm guessing this is some sort of mistake or lack of online price updating.


Any thoughts?

Tru is amazing - big big hugs ;-)


As far as birdcage - I would wait to hear back from BriAnna but the Icons and artwork in the *new* Nina ID are the same images that birdcage had. She has a very unique style so that makes it easier!


Thanks soooooo much for the fix ;-)
