Title: Interesting Images...
Post by: Hornet on August 12, 2006, 01:58:09 AM

A topic for images of interest, which aren't humourous or of a furry nature.

I've administrated Invision before; it's something to do with images being able to be run as scripts...  Not sure if that's an Invision flaw, or it's referring to the jpeg buffer exploit.

Soooo, what type of file can I upload?  :miffed:  


Title: Interesting Images...
Post by: mole on August 18, 2006, 11:30:51 AM
dont think you can, most files around here are hosted else where

EDIT

just looked in the dodgy art and ns has uploaded some jpg files *shrugs*


Title: Interesting Images...
Post by: SS on August 18, 2006, 01:47:30 PM
You should be able to upload "gif,jpeg,jpg,png,xls"

But I think it needs to be a valid JPG - if you rename a PNG to a JPG then it won't work.

Posts have a max filesize of one thousand kilobytes - but I'm not sure if images are included with that.

ok here's a couple pics of mine, crap quality, but good pics still (I think so at least) :unsure:

wait a minute, completely forgot to actually put the pics in before posting, bah! :(

If these were decent quality (and if I could get the bits of plane out of them):/, they'd be awesome :(

BM stands for bowel movement.

I love the different hues/shades of red in the first one, it looks as if the sky is bleeding.

I like the simplicity of the first one.

Pity it's a bit wonky though. :(

My connection is buggering these images about, so I can't tell if they're good enough quality or not. But anyway... Dungeness nuclear power station, and a wooden post near it, then a Grebe from the side of a canal in Bath, and a big balloon flying over the city.

It means "not straight or level"  (cambridge (http://dictionary.cambridge.org/define.asp?key=91127&dict=CALD))

ie: The horizon is sloping down to the right.

Have a look at the attached for the same image but straightened...

Went on a walk with a friend to test the camera, he's the one in a few of the photos.
Camera seems to take relativly nice pictures, but when fully zoomed it goes a bit dire, as on the 2nd image.
Watcha think?


Title: Interesting Images...
Post by: Rug on September 10, 2006, 02:14:33 PM
2nd one is due to digital zoom being shit.

LOL, thats cool dude

you know whats trippy actually? you wouldn't expect it, but going dualies with pens. the thing is they've got to be side by side, not vertical in your hand, and you have to pick them up after each letter, no cursive.

but who writes cursive anymore anyways?


Title: Interesting Images...
Post by: Hornet on November 07, 2006, 11:42:55 AM

Myself for one, on the very rare occasions I actually write anything.  I thought it was quite common.

It could be interesting to have a thread in which people posted photos of their handwriting, actually.  Although it'd be hypocritical of me to start said thread (no pun intended) without posting a sample of my own first.


Title: Interesting Images...
Post by: Louise on November 08, 2006, 03:06:18 AM
I also write cursive. It's comparatively quicker.


Title: Interesting Images...
Post by: Galmort on November 08, 2006, 04:01:07 AM
i've forgotten a lot of it :miffed:

so i've learned to write quicker without it

i used to correspond with  a great aunt of mine(and would still if i'd get off my ass and write :/ [i feel so bad :(]) and her handwriting was flawless, the best i've ever seen, it was crazy. Good handwriting looks real cool
