David Porter Posted January 6, 2012 Report Posted January 6, 2012 Very well finished and a good idea using the video, which makes it more realistic. My invoice for Intellectual Property use in in the post - or you owe me more advice as needed. Quote

Lin Evans Posted January 6, 2012 Report Posted January 6, 2012 LOL - good one!! Nice humor also with the "bicycle wreck" Best regards,LinI made a new post on an idea suggested by Mickp and almost finished by Lin Evans.Mediafire linkMorasoft Quote
Ken Cox Posted January 6, 2012 Report Posted January 6, 2012 THE BLINDS would make ideal transitions for the calendar we been workin on -- you could mount a tire on the closed blind c/w the brand ken Quote

A technical point though - Venetian blinds fall down the opposite way in which they go up. The top slat revealing itself first, then the next, then the next. Oh! and another challenge - where's the ladder webbing? - it's what supports the slats. Quote
Ken Cox Posted January 7, 2012 Report Posted January 7, 2012 Lin we will soon be calling you and the others that contributed to this experiment " THE CREATORS"SMOOTH AND TASTEFULLY DONEKEN Quote
davegee Posted January 7, 2012 Report Posted January 7, 2012 Technically, this project is showing some excellent uses of the PTE facilities.However, (and this is REALLY picky), Lin's blinds appear to be inside looking out and therefore the overlap is the wrong (?) way.But when they open the "pelmet" suggests two inside rooms.Small details?DG Quote
Ken Cox Posted January 7, 2012 Report Posted January 7, 2012 likely a work in progress -- as more eyes see it the faults will be revealedif you remember how long it took to get the curtains /spotlights right to simulate a movie theater stageken Quote

When I started this I had an outside scene as the backgound and it has developed from there. Quote
davegee Posted January 7, 2012 Report Posted January 7, 2012 Attention to detail scores points is what I am preachin'.I'm in awe of some of the things being done but where I see room for improvement I see it as my duty to help out wherever I can.DG Quote
Lin Evans Posted January 7, 2012 Report Posted January 7, 2012 LOL - you guys are sure "pickey" ....Actually, let me address all three questions here. First the inside window looking "outside" to another "inside room." That's not uncommon where I live. For example, my previous ranch home had a window in the kitchen which, when the blinds were drawn, revealed a large "spa" room with a hot tub, cedar lined walls, chairs, tables, couches and sliding doors and large windows from that room leading outside to the pasture, barn, out building, lawns, etc. Very much like you see in the room with the fireplace...Often here we use windows between adjacent rooms, especially if the room is "common" to several other rooms. In the SW United States this is not an unusual form of construction probably originating in the old "Spanish Courtyard" concept, but the "courtyard" surrounded by walls and enclosed in modern days to make this an "all season" and warm and cozy place to enjoy seeing the great outdoors without the attendant weather issues.O.K. The blinds look neater doing it the way I did without ugly cords bunching up and a big "wad" of stacked blinds being hoisted into the valance. Just imagine that there were channels, gears, and a hoist chain inside the window frame and each "blind" was connected by a translucent polycarbonate rod to the master track chain hidden inside the window channel which lowers and raises the blinds. Anybody buying this??? LOL. For those who are "purists," I'll do another with the more "conventional" look and post it in a few days....Best regards,Lin Attention to detail scores points is what I am preachin'.I'm in awe of some of the things being done but where I see room for improvement I see it as my duty to help out wherever I can.DG Quote
Ken Cox Posted January 7, 2012 Report Posted January 7, 2012 well Dave you could always got to Colorado and babysit his 2 dogs and give him first hand advice ken Quote
davegee Posted January 7, 2012 Report Posted January 7, 2012 Well Ken, I was in my local PC shop yesterday and they now offer a service where they will take over your PC remotely and fix it for you while you sit and watch.Perhaps Lin might benefit from that kind of service from one of us?Perhaps not.I can only repeat what I said in Post #14.DG Quote
David Porter Posted January 7, 2012 Report Posted January 7, 2012 Well I can provide a Venetian Blind to fit your window and hopefully there is a good view outside (or Lin can provide some nubile females) and we can take a video of it. It would save an awful lot of trouble. Quote
Lin Evans Posted January 7, 2012 Report Posted January 7, 2012 Hey - that would be great except, unfortunately, until Igor gives us video as a mask we can't "see through" a video transparency so we'll have to just keep on doing it the "hard way" until we can have video with chroma key extraction or video as a mask capabilities.I'll furnish the girls, it you will buy the Chardoney and furnish the wine glasses. Here, it's a "brown paper bag" which distinguishes the connoisseur of fine wines from the "wino" LOL...Best regards,LinBy the way, I'll be posting the "fixed" version as far as the "dropping the blinds" correctly in a few moments - it will be about a half hour and on the same link with the same name....
