What did you do with your Z today

kenchan · 07-16-2011, 02:14 PM

hummm... the picts look pretty good on my droidx's screen but when i look at them on my pc (including the larger TN display) it looks over exposed. it was pretty cloudy so only used my UV lens.

also saving the pict here on this site compresses it significantly more.... where should i host my picts?

HP 2711x LED 27" Monitor is the one I use at home.

Ok cool! Thanks. I think I'm going to get one to use just for my camera purposes. Does my pictures appear over exposes on your screen?

Lol.

did you give them a wink? That's wat I'd do in that situation.

Yah, I think I'm going to need to but let me play with the settings some more before.

Today, I got rebuilt SU's and manifold ready for install into the 240. Those shiny things with domed tops are called "carburators" and it how us old folks used to mix gas and air.

Thanks -- your Z looks mighty sharp as well. I like the splitter quite a bit.

Saahweeet!
I remember those days. Had a BMW 3.0s with twin Webbers that I could never get synched.

Now that I'm considering my Z "done (for now)", I can get back to tinkering on my Miata. This is what's next:

No, but they don't appear very crisp..which is what G2Z and Alchemy are able to produce with editing software.

I must say though....

YOUR RIDE IS LOOKING TRES HAWT!!

Unless you are going for that type of look, you shouldn't need to rely on editing software to produce quality images. It can enhance, yes but it doesn't make the photo 99% of the time.
