She's Talking to Herself Again...

prettywitchstar — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 16:47:19 GMT

I have another journal that I also don't keep active lol. I even paid for a membership. I need to keep social.

I survived my 20's

prettywitchstar — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 17:08:19 GMT

now I have to make it threw my 30's it's a new adventure that I was dreading but not so much right now.

prettywitchstar — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 01:47:35 GMT

I check ohnotheydidnt daily and that is basically the only connection I have to livejournal. ok I did add a few communities that are baby related but thats it.
Max is keeping me busy ~~most~~ ALL of the time now.

baby stuff

prettywitchstar — Wed, 02 Jan 2008 21:48:32 GMT

I had wanted to make use of my journal but alas I haven't really had the time. Max has proven to be more challenging then Alex was in many way. Max was finally diagnosed with Laryngomalacia (has to do with his larynx) which causes him to has suck/swallow/breath issues which in turn causes him to have poor milk transfer. I've spent the last 4 months pumping to keep my supply up (breast milk) since Max has trouble nursing effectively. the whole process has been hard. I am still determined to make a go of nursing I know I can do it

prettywitchstar — Fri, 06 Jan 2006 08:35:10 GMT

I went and made a new banner today. I didn't bother to change the color of the rest of the layout since it took forever to make due to the program crashing offten. I'm just to tired to worry about color. plus I hate hate HATE redoing the layout colors.

Pippi Longstocking - 376 images

prettywitchstar — Thu, 10 Feb 2005 22:41:50 GMT

yes I know these caps are a bit strange but hey I am having a nostalgic moment

crossposted to cap_it

These are from the compressed episodes of the tv series (at least I think) they were made to look like a movie which is how they aired when I watched them. I just did the first dvd and I have no plans on doing more. I no longer have the original video for these so what you see is what you get. but I am keeping the original full size bmp's for these.

600x453 (black borders cropped and resized) 376 images. I goofed when I capped it so the beginning is at the end.

Tutorial - Batch Cropping Images using Irfanview

prettywitchstar — Wed, 02 Feb 2005 02:49:59 GMT

Please bare with me this is the first time I have written a tutorial.

Some of you may already know how to use Irfanview to batch convert images to jpg files and resize images I will cover how to do that along with how to crop out the black borders you get when you do screen captures. Cropping will give your caps a cleaner look and you will get a slightly smaller file by cropping.

I will be including images and will be as detailed as possible. So even if you have never used Irfanview you'll be able to crop :)

Example:

Before After

1. Start by opening Irfanview. you can drag one of the images from the group you plan on working with. it's best to choose one of the lighter images since it will be easier to see exactly where the actual image is so you can cut out the black better.

Image 1

2. With your mouse arrow put it on the top right of the image (minus the black borders). left click and move your mouse until you have outlined the area you want to crop. the first image below if you click on the thumbnail you will see what the image looks like if you cropped out the black borders... the second image is just a close up of the crop outline.

Image2 ...... Image2a

3. once you have your image cropped outlined. we need to open up the batch conversion area. You can use the short cut By hitting 'B' on your keyboard or..
Goto File>>> Batch Conversion/Rename

Input Files:Now that you have it open you need to add the files you wish to crop. If it's the whole folder of images simply click the 'Add all" button or add highlight and add individual files.

Output file area: it's best to have it pointing to a sub folder with in the image directory of the files you are converting.

Work as area: These are the settings if you plan on just converting the images. if you also plan on renaming them simply select the option you want. when renaming the file replace Filename with what ever you want. the ### represents how many numbers you want it to use. so "Priscilla###" would result in "Priscilla001" type of file name.

5. Now to the cropping: in the work as area click the "Select advance options" button.

Crop: Notice the highlighted areas.if you selected the areas you wish to crop you will see the settings you need to enter in the crop area. don't worry about the hight and width being larger if you want the image smaller we will deal with that in the next step.

Resize: if you plan on resizing the images just check the resize box and enter the dimension you would like. It's best to check the "set long side to" or "set short side to" this way you can avoid having to worry about aspect ratios and what not.

6. Now that you have added all of your files to the File Input area and your settings are set simply press the start button and the conversion will start.

7. and you will now have a neatly cropped set of screen caps Like this one!

The images used are screen caps are from the movie "The adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert" that I posted to cap_it Images are posted (Here)

Overall I hope this was helpful. Please let me know if there is anything I can change/improve or explain better. Enjoy!

My movies

prettywitchstar — Tue, 04 Jan 2005 06:51:31 GMT

This list is lacking a lot! and I need to update it. (note added 12-12-05)

I went over to Guzzlefish. I figured it was about time I made a list of the movies I own. This is just a portion of the ones I own. some are on loan or in other formats. but these are the ones that are currently in the dvd rack and in Alex's room.
The main reason I desided to make the list is do to the fact that Fred and Alex desided to watch Resident Evil 2.... oh fun Zombies.......

Anyhoo..
