photoriot

The image editor approach seems a bit harder than Open 1, Open 2, done. I.e. having them auto-scaled to fit the screen, without cropping or looking at dimensions. Also, you can click next to a pic to toggle it with the previous pic and the pics rescale.

So far I haven't heard of an easy way to scale photos to form lined-up diptychs, and seeing an effort where one photo was distorted, I made a free version of my diptych web page that lets you load your own pics into the browser. Once you have gone past the initial files, you can also toggle each photo with the previous one by clicking next to it. Once the page is loaded, it works standalone, tho Home and About link back to my site. The boxy icons change between side-by-side and stacked tilings. http://phobrain.com/pr/home/mypairs.html Before I wrote the diptych formatter, I was pasting pics side-by-side in email and screenshotting the part that lined up. It might be useful if people add other methods that work here, using different programs.

sans mots, toujours! maintenant!

valid message?

Trying full-size (thought I'd asked for it). (Confirmed that the deleted photos came back - I found the portfolio page as it was with only 3 pics as I had left it after I was through deleting, in another tab.) Being able to type inline with the pic is nice.

Andy Goldsworthy sculpture. (I tried deleting all but a few of my photos, but either I missed a bunch due to the interface, or a bunch came back.)

Testing..

<p>I and an associate have put embarrassing amounts of time into refining the keyword scheme, and it is interesting to step back and see where that fits in:</p> <p>--------------- Total pairs: 73235253<br> Keyword-matching pairs: 4342608</p> <p>While there is value in the keyword matches (if only the puzzle of guessing the keywords and learning the 'language'), 69 million pairs remain to be explored by whatever means available, color-matching being my preference, color-opposite good for a change, and Google-based AI matching a gleam in my eye for now. After the usual synchronistic burst of good matches after implementing something new, there is now enough wading through less-stellar matches on my 4th pass that I have decided to add an overt way to flag favorites, also since screen shotting is getting old. Then a simpler page might display just the favorites.</p><div></div>

<p>Here's a thought for the new year, which unlike Godot has actually arrived, though it looks like it leapfrogged from pre-WW2 days.</p><div></div>

<blockquote> <p>Bill, I have the impression that there is a "craze" going on with these Hexastix sculptures with many joining in.</p> </blockquote> Anders, there is surely a craze about Hexastix. I was joking that with only me posting photos without much response, it's more like one crazy person than a bunch of crazed normal folk, since I'm the only one who has 'the bug'. <blockquote> <p>If Godot actually shows up, it will pretty much kill your little drama. </p> </blockquote> Care to prove your point by showing up? When people started finally using the internet and email years after I started talking about them, which is what this reminds me of, that killed some drama, but it is nicer to use those things to communicate with them, and I still get a little drama from telling the story at least. Post a diptych of your own to ruin my day :-)

<p>Corner shadows raise budget questions, put whole political system under scrutiny, Hexastix sculptures now also implicated, roots may go even deeper. Another decades-spanning diptych throws light on all of reality: children only, please. </p> <blockquote> <p>reminding me of the craze</p> </blockquote> <p>If there's only one person, some might think more a 'crazy' than a craze. :-) Still looking for someone else to get on board.</p><div></div>
