Re: Dgrin is sick
I spoke too soon. It's intermittent now. Here's a recent trace that shows one hop in the chain as clearly having problems. I can't tell if this in Smugmug's network or in their ISP's network: C:\Users\John>tracert www.dgrin.com Tracing route to pluto.smugmug.com [63.81.134.25] over a maximum of 30 hops: 1 1 ms 1 ms 1 ms… -

Re: First Time Senior Shoot
Hmm... I think the contrast in the first is better, this one feels more flat/grey. I wish I had the insight to be more specific on what needs to happen. Sorry. I think if you just bump your grey point a bit it will lighten things up, and if you can bring down the white point a bit as well. Regarding the lack of fill. Yeah… -

Re: Butt-ugly yellow - what gels to use?

I am researching the WP stuff and it appears i may have found a piece of code that emulates a server on my mac for WP offline development. I am… -
Re: Eliminating 4x6" prints
Pre-pay is the only way to fly. A lot of people simply view the pictures online, email the link around to friends and family, put a link or a screenshot on facebook, and then they're done with them, they don't need to buy.
