The first photographer my fiencee and I talked to told us that he didn't do prints and that we would have to take the negatives and get the prints done ourselves.
Did you catch that? He never even considered keeping the negatives, in fact he considered it more profitable for him to let us worry about prints and such after he provided the service of taking our pictures. And he is right. Now, every time I hear a photographer tell someone they will keep the negatives and charge per print, I referr them to the photographer who won't screw them.
I consider photographers keeping the negatives about the same as me keeping the source code to a website I developed for someone else.
Does anyone have a link to an RFC detailing the IPv9 standard? Or did China just decide that they needed that much more addressing space and create thatir own standard?
Note: If you plan to use these certificates with Internet Explorer, Outlook, or Outlook Express then generate the certificate from within Internet Explorer. They can't be sucessfully imported into Internet Explorer. Believe us, we've tried...
If what you say is true, then places like dotPhoto are robbing photographers blind.
Get real, most photographers I do websites for dont want to deal with the printing costs and happily let you keep the negatives of you pay them decently for their work TAKING the picture.
Put it this way, is photography more about the style and art of capturing the moment or is it about the moment that is captured?
I love photographers who are so bent on the copyright of the image that they never stop to grasp what the image actually represents.
My fiencee's close uncle recently died and I was asked to create a video memorial (basically a video slideshow), most of the pictures I scanned and put on the DVD were professionally taken and supposedly copyrighted.
When a copyright restricts my right to do what I will with my (or my relative's, friend's, anyone else's) memories, that copyright is no longer valid.
If my name were "Lumpy" I'd probabally have to be dragged to family gatherings as well. I pity you; But hey! At least now I know my fiencee's family isnt the worst in the world (you aren't related to her are you...? ).
What? How can you be so blind to the mobile gaming arena? In which case the GBA is king (hey, even nokia tried to upset them with their bastard phone flop last year).
For those of us who don't tend to stay in one place for very long, mobile gaming is the only thing we've got.
With the evidence that this guy was going 98mph and hit the guy without breaking, is 18months really that harsh of a penalty?
Also, I wonder if insurance agencies will factor this into their agreements; something like: "thou shalt not disconnect this blackbox and if we see that you were breaking local laws we won't pay anything (or as much)".
The fact that I can run Linux on my toaster isn't going to help me make bagels in the morning.
Yes, but if your bagles were $.99 a piece and you could enjoy independantly made bagles for much less, wouldn't you be glad to know you had the choice?
The sooner iPods can play higher quality ogg streams without the digital restrictions management is a "good thing". And the sooner the conversion process is streamlined for the average user to be able to de-DRM-ify their iPod, the better.
Perhaps the reason linux is ported to every hardware architechure is our undying desire to actually be able to do anything we like with the hardware we buy.
Did anyone else notice the hidden linux humor in the referenced Google page from the artical?
From the paragraph How was PigeonRank developed?:
Page and Brin experimented with numerous avian motivators before settling on a combination of linseed and flax (lin/ax) that not only offered superior performance, but could be gathered at no cost from nearby open space preserves. This open space lin/ax powers Google's operations to this day, and a visit to the data coop reveals pigeons happily pecking away at lin/ax kernels and seeds.
I just hope that SCO doesn't try to charge Google with foul play...
... so I'm a little biased as I have to listen to it AT LEAST 9 hours a day (and yes, it loops several times during that timeframe).
Honestly, you'd think that they would have more than 2 hours of origional programming to show a week...
Thanks all for the heads-up for the reruns tomorrow, I'll be sure to charge my headphones.
I just opened up the stop test (see other poster for link) and slowed down the whole movie to check frame consistancy. It's very subtle but the biggest give-away I saw (other than the car's shadow being opposite of the robot's) was that the tire on the robot's right-shoulder "floats" along with the robot (between the 2 and 3 second mark).

The mythical "web of trust" we were supposed to have in Verisign/Thawte/etc... is finally comming true in a NON-PROFIT entity.
Too bad this cert isn't defaultly trusted by IE/FireFox.
Interesting side note: when I recieved the registration email from them, Outlook 2003 (yeah, I know...) marked it as "junk mail".

on how much we get to see Yoda, and how little we see Jar Jar (no Jar Jar would be VERY good).
between Verisign redirecting people at the DNS level and Microsfot redirecting people at the Browser level with MSIE?
Either way you are getting advertizements or tainted search results, and it's annoying either way.
I guess since it's DNS level, no one can "opt out" by choosing another browser, but the average user dosen't know how to do that either...
Actually it came from the militray.com newsletter. (Today's edition).

"nothing to do with any kind of gaming."

I imagine having a bull in my car would more of a detremint to my driving than an asset...

Yes, but can it serve up monochrome pictures of itself with it's fresh port of apache?

Just another reason this is a fake.
