JoelRHale Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Part of the downfall of America right there. I'd like to see Chris Hansen setup shop at those events. It started when every kid got a trophy for showing up IMO. And they would need the entire town's police force parked in the back to arrest them all. Cool cinemewhatchamcallit Is that a nass snail on top of the surface skimmer? That poor little girl! She'll probably grow up being desperate for attention and using sex to get it Thank you. it is actually the screw that sets the skimmer level. I do have a hitch hiking stomatella that lives in the skimmer and keeps it clean. If she ends up looking like her mom she won't have to worry Link to comment

JoelRHale Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 So cool! I have no idea how you captured the water moving while the rest is a still. Impressive! I totally didn't see this due to the page change, sorry dear! It's the same thing as a .gif but just a little razzle dazzle. The way you do it is called vector masking. The basic explanation is you choose a layer to be the top layer, the one that will never change. Then you paint over the portions you want to have move, in this case I painted over the water's surface. So now when you play the .gif the top picture stays the same and the mask acts as a window to the layers below, capturing the movement you want. I definitely plan on doing more. Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Now I have to do one......lol...hmmm I wonder what I should do it of...if my clam makes it I'm do one of it extending and contracting its mantle Link to comment

twan Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Nice .gif Talk to me a little more about the mangroves. When were they added? How have they grown? What care have you administered? Link to comment
ScubaEthan Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 That poor little girl! She'll probably grow up being desperate for attention and using sex to get it hahahaha yes I hate that show... all those shows. Poor kids. Nice new sig!

JoelRHale Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Now I have to do one......lol...hmmm I wonder what I should do it of...if my clam makes it I'm do one of it extending and contracting its mantle That would be cool, and easily staged. Just get your camera where you want it and then do something to piss it off. IME just waving your hand quickly in front of the tank can do it. I'm late to the party. What did I miss? Not a whole lot, just that there's some ancient mayan god in my tank that's been claiming sacrifices. I think it's satisfied for now, and the chosen fish are doing great. Also, scoping out picking up the following (all montipora): JF grinch, Rainbow, Tyree Sunset, Pokerstar, and Superman. My only concern is frag size. They are .5-1" What do you think? Are these hardy enough to make the overnight trip and do well? I ask because some of my Mr. Coral acro has not done well and it's not because he has bad stuff, I just think they were too small and didn't do well with shipping. Nice .gif Talk to me a little more about the mangroves. When were they added? How have they grown? What care have you administered? Thanks! They were added the first week of November of last year. I damaged one plant's roots and its growth is considerably slower, it has only grown about an inch and lost a leaf where the other one has probably grown three inches. They both produced a new set of leaves at about the two month mark. They are pretty easy to care for, I just spray them with some RO after I feed my fish every day. I usually do about 6 squirts each to dissolve the salt build up on the leaves. hahahaha yes I hate that show... all those shows. Poor kids. Nice new sig! Next time you do it, you should make it straight. I had some personal stuff yesterday that I was escaping. Hence doing mark's sig and mine. I noticed the tilt and just said "good enough." It was more of an experiment to see how easy it was and then when my friend from college who was also in my GD classes comes home I'm going to borrow her Sony DSLR and do it right. Link to comment
