benny 0 #9 March 5, 2004 I wonder how much the pilot charged her to add the bad grammar... Never go to a DZ strip show. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndyMan 7 #12 March 5, 2004 Look carefully at the grey sky around the letters of the banner. The clouds are a different color than the grey surrounding them, and on my monitor it's "dithered". "Dithering" is a technical term that describes odities in color approximation, usually taking the form of small dots of different colors, sort of like the impresionist era technique of "pointilism", or a granular newspaper photo. Edited to add: The effect of dithering is common when text is added in photoshop, then saved as a JPG. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead.

Or do you have some sort of high-res original we don't? Edited to add: edge artifacts are a common result of using JPEG, and the lower the JPEG "quality" rating when the file is written, the worse the effect. This happens even in photographs when there is a hard edge in the scene. -=-=-=-=- Pull. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMan 7 #14 March 5, 2004 No, I'm talking about the artifacting on the image as posted. That said, a quick google search does show up references to the event, so it's possible that its real. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chaoskitty 0 #18 March 5, 2004 Hahaa!! Still..the concept is funny! Most funny pics online are photoshopped. In fact, none of us are real! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
craichead 0 #19 March 5, 2004 Yah, I think it's real. http://www.scoop.co.nz/mason/stories/CU0401/S00037.htm Although, the dithering effect AndyMan describes is pretty real, too. _Pm__ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

airgord 1 #23 March 5, 2004 Bye bye Seminole. Seen this photo several times, a pilot hand propped his dead batteried Saratoga and he left it in a medium power condition and it jumped the tiny chocks and killed the Seminole. I thought it was in OZ or NZ. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tink1717 2 #24 March 6, 2004 The story I got was that it was a jealous wife with a chainsaw and the whole thing took less than ten mins. Scary.Skydivers don't knock on Death's door.
