I completely agree, and support Gary's sugestion. Bert

Hi Snapcam, It is nice to see an interesting subject getting the attention you gave it with your images. Lots of interesting angels, shapes, colors and detail made for a beautiful show. The music fitted also perfect. Thanks for showing. Bert

Hi Ken, I was thinking the same when I was making the show, about this being a show that would be perfect for video clips. I just bought a camera that can do video also, so maybe next time. What I understand from this forum, it is another steep learning curve Thanks for watching. Bert

Hi Antony, Thanks for your comments, my intent was to make a fast moving show of a very fast moving event. glad you liked it. Bert

Hi Morturn, Thanks for your comments, I did a lot of the transitions, (fast zoom, a little 3D etc.) because, I thought the images needed to be less static on the screen to get a feel for the action. It's always hard to know what is right and what is too much. Thanks, Bert

Hi Lin, I was hoping a “Real Westerner” would see it an comment. As a transplanted “Dutchman” living in the East, this was the first time I saw an event like this, and it was very entertaining. I think I saw only one older rider out there and can see why you stopped riding yourself. Thanks for your comments. Bert

Last year, I went to a one time a year Rodeo event near us. I have tried to capture the movements and excitement of this spectacle in this show. Camera D300, 80-400mm lens. 1920 X 1200, 54.7mb and length is 3 Min. Comments are always welcome as it helps me to make better shows in the future. http://beechbrook.com/pte/ Bill Hines, thank you for hosting. Bert

Hi Mike, I think you made a beautiful show with the pictures and music enhancing each other. Others have commented already about the use of the cuckoo, I did not mind it the first two appearances. The images you showed remind me a lot of the country side where I live in North West Connecticut. But that is I think why they call this area "New England" Thanks for showing. Bert

Peter, Great show of a fascinating subject, good pictures off what must have been difficult lighting conditions. Thanks, Bert

For me the best show is "Jazz Dumoustier Stompers" by Jean Charles Pizolatto. A superb use of all the possibilities in PTE (specially layers) and some fine music. Bottom of page 9 on Beechbrook. Bert

I read in the rules that it had to be entered before April 8 Bert

This is a great imaginative show. Bert

Hi Jan, This was very funny. For everybody who doesn't know Finnish and saw your original one, take another look at this show now with the translation. Thanks for showing, Bert

That did the trick Lin, thanks for your help. Regards, Bert

Hi Dave and Lin, I like to remove them because when I have a lot of images in the slide list, the thumbnails are very small and the AB and time display takes up 1/3 of the image. I could not find a way to enlarge the thumbnails in the slide list. Maybe if you can point me to that, the time display will not take up so much of the image. Thanks to you and Lin for the quick answers. regards, Bert

Hi, I just migrated from EXE 6.5 to 7.0. In the slide list and the lightbox, I see now al these AB times and also the duration times in the thumbnails of the slides. I looked al over EXE, to get those time indicators removed, but could not find it. Please tell me how to do that. Thanks, Bert

Hi Judy, A very nice show and I like the subject. I have some critical comments if I may. I think the show is too long and the pictures are uneven in quality and interest. I think you can make the show shorter and more interesting, by taking out duplicates and the lesser interesting images. I wish I had known what they were singing about, maybe than I could appreciate the music more. I think you have a great show when you tighten it up more. Thanks for posting it. Bert

Gérard, I went thru the 6 images a couple of times and on my 24 inch computer screen I could not see a difference. If I had to pick the one that was not reduced I would say number 3. Maybe if I saw them on my 42 Inch LCD TV, it would be different. I make my jpeg's for PTE from my Tiff images with "FastStone Photo Resizer" on setting 80. Bert

David, One very nice show I saw some time ago was made using DigiDaub, it is called "Symmetry" and might still be on Beechbrook. Bert

Yachtsman1, Thanks for your PDF. Even as I have PTE for years already, I don't use it enough, so every time I use it I feel as a beginner. Bert

What and where is the "cover command line parameter", I have asked a few months ago if there was a batch method to fill in all the left and right edges of any aspect ratio image, since the default is that the top and bottom are filled in. Bert

Stu, That Worked Thanks, Bert

Hi Yachtsman, I did not down load your "Project reporter" in the past, because it said it was compatible thru v5.6. I am using v6.5 for my projects. I have downloaded it today, but when I click on the "help" tab, a screen comes up with the notice "Navigation to webpage canceled" therefore I never can get to the help screen of your Project Reporter 2" program. Any idea what I can do to get the help screen of "Project Reporter 2" Thanks, Bert

Mike, Nice show, and best wishes for you and Linda also. Bert

Hi Hubert, I was 4 weeks in Turkey and Cappadocia in May of this year. Your show has a set of great images of this amazing landscape. Your moving balloons where very well done and to have the shadows following on the ground was fantastic to see in this show. Thanks for showing, Bert
