Hmm... How many of you have a digitized image of yourself? I have one of myself from when I took ``Computer Imaging'' here at ODU (doesn't your local University use Amiga in their Art Studio department?) I would like to collect some images of other Amiga users (preferribly those that post to the net). I'll be willing to put my image up for ftp if I get some other people's images to put up with it. (You show me yours, etc.) So, if you have a digitized image of yourself and don't mind letting others look at it, let me know and we'll figure out a way to get it to me. Send some biographical information as well. This could be interesting... ...tad PS: If you don't have an image of yourself, and are willing to drive to the Tidewater Virginia area, get in touch and I'll try to arrange a digitizing session in the Computer Imaging studio. -- Tad Guy Comp Sci, Old Dominion University, Norfolk, VA 23529-0162 tadguy@cs.odu.edu tadguy@xanth.cs.odu.edu [128.82.8.1] tadguy@xanth.uucp "Think twice before speaking, but don't say `think think click click'." -- John Owens

Well I don't have access to any Amiga digitizing equipment, but there
is a lab in my school that has a Mac "imaging machine" (I forget what
the real name was.) I don't know how the Macs store their graphic
files- is there some kind of program that converts Mac images to Amiga
and vice versa? I'd be happy to send in lots of stuff if this would
work. (And I could somehow get access to the machine! :-)

At the Hackers' Conference last year, all the attendees that could be collared were placed in front of a video camera and digitized. A list of attendees, complete with digitized photo, was laser-printed up and distributed to all. The list was printed on a LaserWronger, driven by a Mac. How to get the images into the Mac? Well, they had a Mac digitizer, but it was deathly slow, and the subject had to sit still for several seconds while it scanned the image in. Clearly unacceptable. So what did they do? Yeah. They stuck them in front of a camera plugged into LIVE!, stored the images on disk, then aimed the Mac's camera at the Amiga screen (which obligingly held still) to get the images into the Mac for printing.

Better yet - she should get an Amiga and quit playing with dragons and knights.
