Shutterstock.com / panorama merge photos size
« on: October 06, 2013, 23:40 »
hi all,

I did some panorama merged photo which end up as quite big size, more than 10000pixel long size. What size you reduce to meet the minimum shutterstock requirement?

I saw shutterstock offer super size, but everything seems same price so it doesn't really make sense to offer the maximum size.

Cameras / Lenses / clean dust on sensor-pentax
« on: October 05, 2013, 10:42 »
hi all,

I got quite a lot of of dust on sensor, which is obvious when smaller apertures.

I am using pentax k-30 which i can flip up the sensor and facing the camera downward and use a blower to blow the sensor. I tried it before, and i found that sometimes the dust is blow into the viewfinder.

what you guys use to clean the sensor? i wonder any tool that 'suck' the dust out instead of blow it.

« on: September 11, 2013, 12:05 »
hi guys,

I check many company and it seems every hosting company got different plan and different price..

so is godaddy ok to host the symbiostock site?

but actually what is a hosting company? is it like a server space for us to put our images in internet?

General Stock Discussion / wacom drawing tablet
« on: September 07, 2013, 10:25 »
hi guys,

i used to use wacom tablet for some hand drawn sketchings.. now I would like to get another one and it seems the wacom tablet had basically replaced wiht many new model..

what is the entry level model? did wacom rename entry level tablet as 'intuos Pen'? i know the zoom version is you can use fingers to zoom in..

but i notice there is also a lot of 'bamboo' stylus... i remember bamboo was the entry level tablet name before? it is very expensive compare to a general stylus for ipad or android tablet.. are they able to do something special like sensing pressure?

have technology changed that no one is using wacom tablet anymore?

General Stock Discussion / light room move folder
« on: August 18, 2013, 08:13 »
hi guys,

I want to move a folder to external drive A to external drive B.. I tried to drag the fold in lightroom but I wasn't able to move it to another drive. I can drag the folder to hard drive on my laptop though.

It seems lightroom doesn't move files from external drive to another external drive?

so my only option is moving the files through window, and update the folder location in lightroom?

thanks.

GLStock / upload limits
« on: April 07, 2013, 12:00 »
GL upload limits doesnt make sense, all the uploadings after upload limits just become invalid..

possible to make it as 'submission limit'? so at least all uploadings can be finished, instead of need to check what had been uploaded and what had been missing.

Hi guys,

I got this message to my portable harddrive all the time..-Do you want to scan and fix removable disk

it seems if you click yes, it will repair and sometimes some files will be disappear.. as I experienced it before.

if you just close the prompt and it can use as usual.

But what is the right way to deal with it? without the risk of losing any files?

Illustration - General / how to 'frame' eps vector
« on: March 17, 2013, 12:00 »
Hi all,

I usually make a 'box' with no line, and no fills that 'frame' my eps vector..so there are so space around the vector when it is rasterize as jpg in photoshop or other application..

I got some rejections sometimes saying i should remove the 'white shape' in the background as it will cause some problems for some applications.

I convert the shape as 'artboard'..and no more shape.

but if i open in an application, there are no space around the eps vector..and it is like cropping to the maximum.

I don't like how it shows as preview..and a vector that touching border with no space.

If my method is wrong, what is the way to do it?

any adobe illustrators expert can give me a hint? thanks!

Software - General / lightroom import problem
« on: February 13, 2013, 00:29 »
Hi all,

when i try to import folder or sychronise folder of new folders in lightroom, lightroom will behave like checking it forever...I can press the small cross button to stop it.

It seems there are few video files by camera won't be able to recognise by lightroom.

It was okay for video files before, but I don't know why it seems have problem now..the video is playable in quicktime, it is a avi format straight out of camera.

Do you guys have an idea what to do? I would like to know is there a solution?

Software - General / lightroom folder update
« on: January 19, 2013, 08:16 »
Hi all,

I need to transfer the adjustment of images to new folder.

But due to some reasons, i can't update the adjustment to new folder.

the old folder is as APPLE01\101_A

then new folder is APPLE02\101_A

both are been imported to lightroom, so when i browse the old folder in lightroom, the adjustment is there, but a question mark on the folder saying the folder is not found.

I tried to use the 'find missing folder' and look for the new folder with different parent folder..a message is prompt to say to merge, but after merging, the new folder isn't update with the adjustment.

Is it due to the parent folder is not same?

I know I should have moved the folder by using lightroom, instead of changing it outside the lightroom.

But what i can do now to move the folder adjustment?

hi all,

If there is a way to export image in lightroom with desired dimension?

like i got this picture 4000x2000, i want to make it like 3000x2000, and even it will get distorted..lightroom since will remain the proportion.
