    Images not showing up in the forums for me

    mozilla won't help. the browser is fine. its DPR's programming (likely javascript; the most evil of all web protocols). when I also go and disable NS and AB, the image links are still pure text, ending in .jpg or .gif or whatever. its not even a matter of trying to whitelist things; when I...

    Images not showing up in the forums for me

    many of us have this 'non displaying inline' behavior. things used to work for me with firefox, adblock and noscript. dpr worked fine. then, THEY changed stuff ;( I know I didn't do anything and likely the rest of you didn't either. their programming triggered bug behavior. they are trying...

    shooting a clear acrylic case (e3, pic)

    no lights at all, actually ;) borrowed some sunshine that came thru an upper window in a top floor bedroom. no 2nd light (that might have been better, actually). just one beam from a nearby window, going thru the slotted window shade (horizontal blinds). cheers -- Bryan (pic stream...

    shooting a clear acrylic case (e3, pic)

    my latest project is that raspberry pi linux board ($40ish). its very 'hot' right now (although the software has a bit more to go before its stable enough to actually use). shot the unit inside its new clear plastic case. for a whim, took a nearby book and used it for a base. it has a bit of...

    Can we write an offcial letter to Olympus with an obvious question?

    in almost all cases, corporate and customer interaction is not a democracy. now, if something annoys you a lot and you get tons of friends to write in, you could accomplish a 'banning', perhaps. but I've never, in my life, seen a company say 'oh, the customers want such and such? hey, lets...

    s95 shoots rasperry pi and pibow case (jpg)

    I guess strong color gets people to click ;) the photo was on flickr's 'explore' page yesterday, it seems: http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/2012/09/24/page42/ never underestimate the power of strong, saturated color, lol. -- Bryan (pic stream...

    s95 shoots rasperry pi and pibow case (jpg)

    thanks guys. quite a bit is in the processing. but I can get acceptable 'tech photos' with a small grab camera and don't need to setup my slr for all things. reds are always too strong on canon; but its an easy fix. reds are also a bit strong on my oly slrs and so every cam needs -something-...

    S100 after 2nd repair

    any special electrical cleaner, something like wd40 etc will do. sorry, you don't want to use wd40 near any camera! if you need to clean oxide from electrical contacts, there's only 1 thing I recommend: deoxit d5 (spray can). spray some onto a cotton tip and apply that tiny bit to the battery...

    s95 shoots rasperry pi and pibow case (jpg)

    still using my s95 for quick grab-shots. today, the sun was very bright thru my upper window and by setting EV pretty low, I was able to get this black background shot almost by accident. not using raw, just capture with jpg and PP with good old cs2 ;) subject is a 'rasperry pi' linux computer...

    are inline images not allowed anymore?

    btw, on some forums, there's a nice little work-around to getting an image to show up when the url does not end in '.jpg'. you can sometimes add a dummy param like '&moose_and_squirrel=1.jpg' and that will get the forum software to inline the image and it will still run the cgi job and the dummy...

    are inline images not allowed anymore?

    yes, it did. that used to be enough. I think .gif also worked, but I would not post .gifs here ;) -- Bryan (pic stream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/linux-works )

    are inline images not allowed anymore?

    I used to pay (real money) to dpr via donations since I felt it was content worth paying for. and if there is ever a move to add micropayments to disable ads, I'd be all over it. until then, ads are obnoxious and I don't believe its my duty to endure them. blinking or static, I simply disable...

    are inline images not allowed anymore?

    I still can't get it to work. I tried another browser (firefox latest version) with no filters installed or enabled. it still shows only the text url! are any other firefox users having this trouble? -- Bryan (pic stream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/linux-works )

    are inline images not allowed anymore?

    how strange! yes, I did mean that post. and I can't even see my own photos on that post. the urls are just like text. maybe, when dpr 'changed things' a few months ago and I had to adjust my adblock settings, they did something that broke MY settings. I really hate the arms race of: websites...

    are inline images not allowed anymore?

    I used to simply list the url of the jpg file (on flickr, for example, but any hoster would work for this) and as long as I didn't include a trailing semicolon, the image would be expanded and shown inline. has this been changed? my last post tried to include some photos using the url method...
