Anybody who wants to can get a user account here, subject to approval. With that comes a 'blog and the ability to comment, but no guarantee.
That last bit about guarantees comes from the fact that I'm not sure what's in store for this little web site.
Don't let sean be the only one. :-)
I modified the image module to spit out a ColorInfo tag for IE.
I want to host some image gallery type stuff here, so eventually there'll be a mod to image.module to determine an image's ICC profile and send it out properly, but for now, it's all sRGB, bay-bee.
Some web sites dealing with Pentax equipment.
Bojidar Dimitrov's Pentax K-Mount Page is a very thorough and detailed source of information about every piece of Pentax K-mount hardware imaginable. The problem is that the information stops at the *ist film camera. Apparently, this site was in jepaordy of being shut down by Mr. Dimitrov, but the hue and cry of his fans has purchased a reprieve. He says he's going to start updating the information and adding new entries, but it'll likely be slow going.
Note: I wrote this a while back, when the *ist DS wasn't three product cycles ago... However, the advice should still apply, even to the K100D, the K110D, the K10D, and the Samsung GX-10. In the case of the K10D and the GX-10, stop-down metering is accomplished with the green button, rather than AE-lock.
The *ist DS is a nifty neeto digital SLR camera made by Pentax.
This is an online book about photography. It appears here as I write it.
What will happen is that as I learn things, or as I explain them to others, that information will end up here. It will get re-sorted and re-organized as I go along.
Comments will be evaluated and added into the material, and thus it will be a collaborative effort. I'm just the instigator and editor, so please comment!
I'm getting a lot of referrers from Google, looking for the Fremont Solstice Parade 2005.
I was looking at the referrer logs, and discovered that some people are searching for 'mile 23' on Google, and ending up at your humble 'blogger's web site. Which is fine with me, except that I'm not getting a nickel per visit... :-)
But the point is that I've discovered that there's a mile23.net, which is a promo site for a band called... Mile 23. They have streaming audio on their site, and they're not bad. Not my cuppa, but at least they're competent, ya know?
Well dang... I was going to crow about porting Kubrick (the template that used to be here at Mile 23) over to Plone, but it that seems Paul has shed his skin for something new, so the relevance just isn't there now.
Welcome to Mile23.com!
Mile23.com is a blatant piece of self-promotion by a guy called Paul Mitchum.
Beyond that, it's a platform for ephemera, bits of tid, and the kind of information that fills nooks and crannies.
I'm sean, née seanmeister, from xanga days past, long before it became the worthless dumpster of incoherent teen angst that it is today.
