Wai,
we had a problem with the printing last weekend. I suspect it is the printer software ( colours came out too light by about 65% ). Hope you'll be able to help us with that.
Anything else anyone want to add?

I can settle item 2 , 4. Item 7 already settled . Manpower wise , already confirm the photographer , so the rest should not be a problem . Our Chief promoter will be avaliable from 1pm onwards for both days .

[Splutter]

Got something on sat leh, maybe can only drop by in the morning. I try to make up on sunday though

 

[knoxknocks]

a bit boh liao this morning. Was thinking of a way to automate the copying of files, renaming etc at the shooting station. How about this?

#1 Program is always running

#2 When photo come through DPP, and is ok, drag and drop onto window

#3 The file gets automatically renamed, copied to the print folder and also moved to the sent folder

#4 All the directories etc can be configured

#5 Want to see one more time the pix after all this still can by double-clicking on the little thumbnail in #3

Actually can also print receipt, but I can't find any small printers. The 2 thermal prts I had for a project koyak already...

sometimes the photo need to crop manually before print and also need to resize and paste on a template contain sponsor logo, the latter part is handled by PS action, can the software do that too?

hehe . I thought of automating the shooting station only leh. After that, the cropping and PP in PS still needs to happen manually at the printing station?

 

[ortega]

looks good, I suppose that it can be customized to do it as well, but sadly we are on the last stretch. I'll leave these things to the technical gurus

Ok this is the last stretch, our final weekend.

For the benifit of those new to this charity event.

We are still on for this weekend (Sat and Sun)
Official operating hours are from 9am to 9pm

Of course we have to setup before 9am on Sat
and after 9pm on Sun we will have to take it all down
and store.

It is hot work, if you look at the pictures posted
you will notice that we are all toasted.

We need all the help we can get, if you wish to volunteer
please send a message to poohbear

Thanks

T-minus 23hrs and counting.

OK Roger that, anyone want to help? it must be done exactly at 12 midnight.

Here is how it goes:
1. Fully extend your tripod
2. At midnight go 3 round clockwise and 3 rounds anti-clockwise around your tripod.
3. You are done.

Don't believe? It worked last weekend.
