Thanks, simply fantastic links. Probably the one I have enjoyed most is Frederic Pascual's. For Bangladesh, I will be in Dhaka and then Chittagong, Ship breakers and Hill Tracts. For next options I am open. Any contact in the country is welcome. rincon@photo.net

I am organizing a trip to Bangladesh and would like to share interests and

experiences in the country. The trip will start in Old Dhaka, very photogenic

environment, and probably go south to the port Chittagong, then west.. Looking

forward to your views and experiences. Thanks, Manuel.

I didnt realise Photoshop is doing that. What did you notice? MR.

Sorry,

 

how do you low level format your CompactFlash card?

 

I have been having problems with my 80x 4 Gb card.

 

Thanks,

Manuel.

My experience is that a decent slideshow is 15 minutes long, 30 minutes if you are really talented and more than one hour only if your name is Francis Ford Coppola. That means a maximum of 200 pictures, 400 or 800. More than that creates enemies for a lifetime. Manuel.

Regarding quality,

 

quality is not an issue if you are going to play it in a DVD and TV, but it IS an issue if you want to play it in a computer screen.

 

Have you found a solution for slideshows on a computer screen with a decent quality. Probably premiere will have to be the answer.

For a long time I have being using Powerpoint, very powerful but tedious in importing pictures.

Some weeks ago I moved to Picasa, but it has IMHO a serious problem in saving the show. Several times I lost everything and needed to start from scratch.

 

Last week I tried Proshow Gold. It is powerful in reorganizing slides and fast to create good DVDs and VCDs. But it has a main drawback: the quality of the pictures is extremely bad to show in a computer screen.

 

Let me share with you my workflow, since I may have been doing something very wrong. I changed the size of the original pictures to 1572 x 1024, a bit more than the screen to allow movement of some of them with picture quality and detail. I started the show (Show Options) as 1572 x 1024. Finally I created an executable of 1280 x 768, which is the actual pixel size of my monitor.

 

Horrible blurred images is the result. I am desperately seeking for any mistake I might have done.

 

If I do not find an answer, I will have to move to Adobe Photoshop Elements 3 or to Adobe Premiere. And of course will make as bad publicity as I can about this so popular slideshow software. I cannot believe that this software is only designed for slideshows in TVS (low resolution) but offers no solution for slideshow in computer monitor and proyector.

 

Thank you very much, Manuel.

lisa, let us not be involved in words and definitions. let us avoid words that have connotations. let us try to make a sentence without the words voyeurism and curiosity. people like to take pictures to show emotions in others' actions. most of the people get a sense of challenge and achievement. they also enjoy a sense of beauty and proportions out of a good picture. they also enjoy stealing a moment to others without them knowing. possibly, some also get sexual excitement, but this is difficult to say, since sex is such an flexible term and has such undefinable boundaries. last, pros take pictures for money while they make fine arts in the free time. manuel

Any advise on how to soften in PS?

Manuel.
