I got a Question for whoever can answer :)

If you look at Louisville Slugger's picture there is a 1pixel black border around the image. How do you add that easily (ie not manually?). I am not good at programs like Photoshop, etc. I never sat down and learnt them because they do not interest me. Could someone explain, simply, how to do it? I have PSP7 and Photoshop 7. Cheers :)

this has to be one thee coolest threads on neowin ive been making wallpapers out of all these shots thx guys, keldyn thank you bro

[lammmetak]

never thought this thread would get this big

it should called: post ur digital camara pics here ....:)

[BGM]

its easy, in PS7 just zoom into your image, then select the 'Pencil Tool' (right click the 'Brush Tool' to get Pencil) and select black from the colour palet...

next select the smallest Pencil, which is 1px (i think its the default) from the drop down menu at the top...

then click once in the corner of the image, and HOLD now hold down shift also, and draw a perfect line down your image...

do the same starting from the other 4 corners, and you will ahve a 1pixel border going around your image, easy peasy :)

heres an example:

i went to wright-patterson afb area c yesterday to take pix of the planes...planes from the east coast usually come here during hurricanes....my dad was an aircraft mechanic in this area....

turns out the af doesn't like people taking pix of the base anymore....but the mp was really nice about it

[aem4162]

planes are always flying around the area.....this is just at take off

[aem4162]

they take off really low over rt 235 (where these were taken)

Alright, so this thread has caused me to break down and get a new digital camera - my current one (Agfa ePhoto 1680) is around 4+ years old now, and I want something newer. I'll most likely be getting this one - EOS Rebel. I wanted to make the move to a digital SLR - something that I will be able to use and explore and will grow with me for a while - and it has an excellent price for what it can do. I'll be sure to post when I get some good pictures out of it (that might be a while :) )

Props to everyone's pictures here - there are some really awesome ones (no offense to everyone else, but Sjokkel's are amazing...) Oh, and I hate you all for making me do this as well :)

I've also been looking for a digital SLR solution that is affordable. It's a shame that prices are almost half in the US of what they are here in Belgium :(

The rebel is one the first affordable digital SLR's with some really nice specs. It's a great tool to learn photography since you'll have all the functions of a normal SLR but the advantage of instant results. But keep the photo shooting in your mind and only try to use the camera as a tool to capture the things you already created in your head and I think the Rebel would be a great tool to do that. ..... Now can somebody lend me some money :blush: ? Or maybe i need to find myself a bank :ninja: :D

Ok, I saw that camera in a Gateway Ad in PC World for $200!! (Elph version).

Could anyone confirm it? or was it a daydream? :(

[Delsphynx]

I'm thinking that was a different camera...they have some digital elph models that are right around that price...

[Monkeh]

Canon Powershot S400 Elph? It's not the same one?

Or use the built-in "Border" feature :rolleyes: :p.

[Delsphynx]

Are you talking about the camera that I posted above? If so, no, that isn't the same one. The one I posted was a Digital Rebel/EOS300D.

[aem4162]

Canon Powershot S400 Elph? It's not the same one?

i don't think so...the 400s are about $599ish

[mike09]

my digital elph s400 was 480 somethin dollars.

here is a panoramic pic i took while in Las Vegas from the stratosphere(sp?)

It is the same. They just have different branding depending on the region you live in. In australia it is known as the IXUS 400. Exactly the same camera tho. :)

[Guest Ryan]

Cool pix, Anita! :)

Keldyn, are you going to repost any of your older pix? :yes:
