It was instant loading for me, Cal. Nice picture.

1412. JudithAtHome - 5/14/2000 2:05:57 AM

Not long to load for me, either...are those California waves?

1413. CalGal - 5/14/2000 2:11:29 AM

If he were in my part of California, he'd be wearing a lot more.

No, this was taken at Launiupoko State Wayside Park, thankyouverymuch.

1414. arkymalarky - 5/14/2000 2:12:26 AM

That sounds Hawaiian. I didn't realize you were there already. Hope you're enjoying it!

1415. CalGal - 5/14/2000 2:22:56 AM

Yes, I am. Yesterday I drove south from Laina and went all the way down to the 'Ahihi-Kina'u Natural Area Reserve and La Perourse Bay. I'm seeing if I can post the pics.

1416. CalGal - 5/14/2000 2:25:58 AM

That's Lahaina and La Perouse, sorry. And today, I'm going to Hana and spending the night at a little guesthouse out there. I'm not nearly as nervous about the road--the road going down to La Perouse Bay was very narrow, so I'm prepped.

I can't see the photo.;-(

1418. CalGal - 5/14/2000 2:40:20 AM

Jen,

You can't? Try www.the_calgal.tripod.com/surferlc.jpg. Let me know what error message you get.

For those of you that can see, which of these shots looks better?

This



or this:



You can click on the images to see it full size. And "no difference at all" is fine as an answer.

1419. arkymalarky - 5/14/2000 2:52:01 AM

Second one, definitely. That is if more ominous-looking clouds and darker water is a good thing. The first, if not.

1420. CalGal - 5/14/2000 2:58:52 AM

I'm testing the software's "Instant Fix" option. Sometimes it's definitely worse; other times, like this one, it seems to be a minor improvement, but I like to check with others.

Are both pics basically okay?

1421. Absensia - 5/14/2000 3:02:16 AM

Calgal,

They won't load for me, either.

1422. arkymalarky - 5/14/2000 3:04:37 AM

Yeah, they're both good, but the second seems more vivid and defined.

1423. CalGal - 5/14/2000 3:09:27 AM

Arky,

I think the improvement happens when both the software and I agree about what the focus of the picture is supposed to be. When we disagree, it means that I probably didn't frame the picture properly, so the software is trying to focus around a point that makes the real focus look terrible.

Abs,

Could you please try the URL I provide in a different window and see what happens?

1424. DaveM - 5/14/2000 3:18:25 AM

Cal - I sent you an e-mail.

1425. Absensia - 5/14/2000 4:47:01 AM

I tried that too, Calgal and got an error message. May be my freaking computer...It's been strange since the middle of the night.

1426. Absensia - 5/14/2000 4:48:20 AM

This is what I get:While trying to retrieve the URL: http://the_calgal.tripod.com:80/

The following error was encountered:

Invalid URL
Some aspect of the requested URL is incorrect. Possible problems:

Missing or incorrect access protocol (should be `http://'' or similar)
Missing hostname
Illegal double-escape in the URL-Path
Illegal character in hostname; underscores are not allowed




1427. CalGal - 5/14/2000 5:04:44 AM

Abs,

My guess is that it is tripod (the freebie site I chose).

How about this?

1428. Absensia - 5/14/2000 6:22:02 AM

Cal..that came through great!

1429. joezan - 5/14/2000 6:25:27 AM


Beautiful pics, CalGal.

I trust you're leaving your computer alone enough to have some fun?

Re: Message # 1426, Absensia.

while 80 is usually the port number (it is picked by default in most windows apps), try taking it out of the URL string next time.
