    My new scanner...and some free software

    I just purchased a new scanner, an Epson 4490. It is able to scan photos, slides, color negatives (35mm & 2 1/4) as well as standard documents. I am very impressed with it so far. I've scanned in some negatives I've had around for a long time of a girl friend of mine from days gone by. She was...

    The Ken Burns Effect...in 3D

    I don't know if Ken Burns was the first to use these Effects (pan and zoom) but he certainly popularized them in his documentary, "The Civil War". Lately, I've been seeing what I would call 'perspective' pan and zoom (hey, I watch The History Channel a lot). These effects might pan but with the...

    Another selection question

    I've had an image of the shoulder patch for the ship I was stationed on, the USS Oriskany, for some time. I'd like to use it for one of my web pages but the border of the patch is too jagged for my likes. I had hoped to either create a slightly smaller selection then do a cut to smooth out the...

    Old fashioned Matinee' with Image Ready

    I couldn't get the curtain to 'operate' over the movie screen but... When I was young, many, many years ago...tv was in it's infancy. We got our news, a cartoon and a double feature at the Sunday Matinee'. I thought I'd try to duplicate that feeling for you. If you go to this PAGE, I have...

    To fully enjoy Pipe Dreams, you should have high speed access and a good speaker setup. Originally from a dvd, I've down converted as much as possible while still keeping the video and audio at a high quality. Hope you like it. I don't know what 3D app was used to create the graphics but...
