Virginity. Four Shots Story. Watermarks — 17/18/19th August

an article.

Hello,

We have three themes coming up: Virginity, Four Shots Story and Watermarks.  All of these are going down next week: 17—23rd August. Sharpen your focus, clean your sensors, charge your batteries … it's on, yé!

Just to explain what each theme involves:

  1. Virginity: 17th August the first photograph you took that made you realise you love this art form.
  2. Four Shots Story: 18th August, best explained by this Molobedu's photograph:
    Molobedu — not for vegitarians/badimo
  3. Watermarks: 19th — 23rd August well, watermarks on a photograph, as Buchu elaborated. I however will be responding to this as a "metaphor".

So we in it? We doing it yé?

1ove, collaborates.

    I was just waitin' for the "chief's" whistle... : )
    (gotta look like mad for that "first one" though)

    Eish. Virginity. You're forcing a brother to dig into the crates!

  5. lebogang nkoane

    Yep — I am starring at that crate (alas, in my case it's a box) right now. A lot o' digging will have to happen.

    Eish, I might need a scanner.

  6. Mpumelelo

    Oh yeah, lets do this...

    I am thinking maybe I should dress up 75 like how it used to look like the first time it dropped, for the Virginity Theme. It would be 'kewt and ugly'.

    Yo! At time it was Vanguard!

    Actually, that design didn't last long — I think 2-3 months at best.

    Im late. Again. Man, i miss the internets. Anyway so um, this is kinda embarrassing but how does one do that thing in photoshop where you cut and paste for pictures together? Anybody willing to teach a brother?

  13. lebogang nkoane

    Eish, only saw this now — Suavé, there is no thing, you'd have to tinker around with Photoshop to get it to work, unless, I am less informed.

    Hey Suave!
    There are some cameras (like the one I use, the Ricoh GX100) that can be set up to make a photo on a certain interval and if you do 4, it automatically saves it on this layout. Otherwise what you do in Photoshop is open a new file with the same resolution as your 4 photos but give it a size to fit them, depending on how you position your photos and if you use a frame will affect the proportions, for example if you make each of your 4 photos @ 12 x 8 inch with 300 px/inch resolution, landscape you need to open a new file that is about 24 x 16 inch with 300 px/inch, whatever spaces between photos or frames also need to be added to the overall size, if you know this beforehand you can give the size you need, if you want to play around then I advise you to make a generous size like 30 x 20 inch, then when you have your layout in place use the "canvas size" tool with the background color if you want to either crop it or extend it. When positioning your photos it helps if you set up guidelines so that the photos snap to the right position. Hope this helps.
