I agree Doug,

My goodness! With all the rare prints I have, I would love to have a proper screening room AND the digital camera to take the screenshots I'd love to.

But in the meantime, great to see all of yours!

If there's wrong in my doing, I will of course stop. The pictures I put up, Laksmi, is three pictures all under 200kb and less than 550 pixels, so I am actually using less space this way than posting 8 "normal" pictures.

Just let me know, I'll follow rules, but was under the impression it was number of pictures (ie in this case 3) was supposed to be under 8.

Two more pictures from todays feature film, Beverly Hillbillies

Laksmi, this is a total space use of under 400kb, if I did 8 pictures, they would be about 1,5Mb. Really sorry if this annoys you or anyone, I'd stick to a couple of pictures in singles if that's what's needed

For what it is worth, I love Vidar's posts and pictures.

Vidar, you watch films every night? All your prints have superb color even. Lucky you. Some day I will visit you in Norway, I am not joking here. I will visit you. And, I will definitely steal 20-30 prints, but you will not realize because your collection is so huge!! [Big Grin] [Big Grin]

LOL, thank you. You are welcome for a visit, but I am hesitant to let you steal any of my loved movies ;-) And the collection ain't that huge, a little over 500 titles, ranging from 50' to full features.

I've been lucky with quite a few prints, but The Birds, that's one that seems red, no matter what

I don't want anyone to get annoyed, so do state your opinion, if everyone is okay with the posts, that's nice, if not, I'll change to smaller posts

Vidar, just a heads-up here: I only steal full-features. [Big Grin]

Ha, ha ... Good thing I don't have that many :-) Depends on if you call The Three Stooges for example as features? They are the full film of 17-19 minutes, but it's not a feature unless it's at least 60 (or is it more?) minutes

Shortest film I'd steal is the 45-minutes 'Sherlock Jr.', but it must have soundtrack. Anyway, let us get back to the topic. Anybody seen anything worth sharing last night?

Yeah Doug ,Hugh, Akshay, and every one why don't you all put up pictures everyday like Vidar ? I don't have a proper screening room but I have a computer and Photo Shop . I guess I don't know about computers or cameras I will let an expert like Vidar put up all the pictures from now on and just look on like Osi.

Laksmi, your pictures are also brilliant, I LOOK FORWARD to seeing
your screensnaps, seeing as we both love "Uncle Rays" films.As
Doug says,there's no hard rule on snaps, get them up there, we
all enjoy them.I WISH I was as computer savvy as yourself, but
alas I am thick as a brick,when it comes to electronics, but it is
nice to see all members screenshots. I would like to see your
Harryhausen trailer reels in a screenshot special.
I'm still looking for Hercules by the way.

Lakshmi, on Vidar's three stooges serial posts, he actually only posted 3 pictures. He was smartly putting many pictures into one frame and resize into the max that this forum can accept (i.e 550 pixels).

It does not break any rules.

Today's software can compress big files into small size without sacrificing the resolutions, hence the picture is still big and clear.

I did not post my screen shot so often because I always forgot to take camera while screening due to the fact so many thing needs to be prepared before projecting films... [Big Grin]

Winbert, I WISH i was as "on the ball" as yourself and Laksmi where screenshots are concerned, you guys just leave me with my
mouth open with the stuff you put up there.Nice to know you're
safe, keep well away from Singapore for a bit.

Hi Laksmi

Please keep posting your photos, it is appreciated [Smile]

Graham.

PS I use my wife digital camera for screen shots, but it does not like to much movement "gets a bit blurry" and has now packed up altogether [Frown] ..still got to get the hang of the new one [Smile]

I second that, Laksmi, keep 'em coming. Love to see the pictures

It's because of some of your pictures I've bought some films and look for certain films too, so they are very nice and helpful for me at least.

Got two new ones today too and watched through them ... Pleasingly surprised of the colors

Once Upon a Time in the West, 400'

When Worlds Collide, 400' (well on a 400' reel, but it was 10-12 minutes I think)

There is a free software in german (verkleinerer17b.exe)
You choose the file on your computer and you write the size you need, in our case 550pix and push the butten. The programm copy all pictures in the correct size in a new folder.

It is very easy.
You can download the programm here: http://www.softonic.de/s/verkleinerer-17-exe

But I am sure, they exist same programms in english too.

Akshay, I have 3 children (13 year old daughter, 8 years old son and a 4 years old little daughter).
The little daughter is the only person in my family who watch with me together Film. All other prefer TV.
But my Son is a big Star Wars fan, so I watched it with him together yesterday. My little daughter is to young for Episode 2, so she came and go during the screening.

Oemer, your children preferring TV over film may be to stay up-to-date on today's programming. This way they can talk to friends. In a few years they are going to realise that the film set-up in your house is "cool". This is my feeling.

I know, I just had not watched it for a while and was glad to see it was better than I thought.

Thank you, now I am feel envy ;-)

Want to sell it?

Looking really nice, then there's hope for another one turning up sometime.

Today I have a screening with some friends, so pictures later

Death Wish and some shorts are on the menu, maybe a trailer show on 35mm
