Triptych
Triptych II
10/14/2009 02:04:00 AM · #2
Why. why, why couldn't L. have increased the allowable dimensions to at the very least 720 pixels for this one? Was really looking forward to another triptych challenge.

Been asking that same question about challenges in general for years now. No one cares.

I agree.... the three photos will be very squishy when fitting into 640.

Basic Editing and 640 pixels wide

That was exactly my first thought when I saw the challenge, what are the dimensions.

He added the 720px special rule after the challenge was announced last time, if I remember coreectly.

Maybe he'll do the same this time??? Please??

Damn! I wanted this challenge as I just worked on an idea last week which is out of the date range. To duplicate it I need to do some outdoor shooting and it is suposed to be raining and windy here all week! We'll see.

Must have been because I said, "Please"

Politeness still matters ;-)

I was wrong. They care!!!

Not sure how we can get 3 panels under the basic editing rules. According to the rules, we are allowed "add a border to the outside edge of your entry". But for the Triptych I would have thought most of us would want a border between individual panels. How can this be achieved within the rules?
10/14/2009 04:30:53 PM · #16
You are allowed to use three pics so I wsould assume that you were allowed to have a border in between

I'll go with that assumption, although it does not comply with the wording of the rule "outside edge of your entry"

does anyone know if we are allowed to use Fotofusion to create the triptych?
10/14/2009 05:25:08 PM · #19
in Basic editing layers containing pixels are not allowed. So I'm not sure how to do this. I can't layer 3 images, under Basic editing. I guess I have to figure out how to past each image in without creating a new layer, which I know I can do in MSPaint. Anyone know of other apps I can use? I would be grateful. It might be fun to try something new.

It's being discussed in the "rules changed for this challenge" green thread; I sent a ticket to Langdon about this.

I used Picasa to create my triptych. I think its easy and legal under Basic.

Preachin' to the choir, sistah!!!I'm not going to go off on a tangent, but I think basic is dumb.

I like Basic because it forces people to learn how to use the camera and that's really what it's all about but this time around I think something more advanced would have worked better.
