  1. If there was an App on the relevant stores then it would, I don't bother with the official AVFC app. But every now and then I browse to see what's on there for villa fans. I'm interested in the data allowance thing, didn't reallly consider that. So on that note I'd be interested but the app would have to sell at the lower price for it to receive wider appeal and pay for itself, if that's possible. To be fair I already access it via a bookmark saved to my home screen, well.. in a folder on my home screen. That works pretty good for me, though I need to set it to save my password... apparently I haven't managed that yet... somehow
  2. Musician Friends that bang on about supporting independent artists and how only the talentless media freaks ever get a chance... and then don't bother spending a measly £4 to buy my album.
  3. Avoid at all costs, he's shit Thanks Rob. Good job I don't expect you to buy it.
  4. Do you might prefer this type of music then ? Actually a hip hop producer but this whole album is made in a more different style than your usual hip hop producer:p http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAxJZTTk0_w My music is not that style but the comment could fit me too This is a cool track too though! Relaxing
  5. Why, what is it? Can't check as unable to access at work ;___; Just deepish alternative hip hop, nothing too weird, just nothing mainstream
  6. I think her last tweet was to an article saying it wasn't. Basically I think she's tweeting any information she sees as opposed to claiming it as her own information. Which is fine
  7. Shamless plug but I'm listening to my own album that I released today.. not for the faint hearted or the traditional listeners My Limited Edition 7 track album is out now, for the humble asking of £4. http://dlo247.bandcamp.com/album/genetics
  8. My Limited Edition 7 track album is out now, for the humble asking of £4. Go, get it before it's gone. Even if it's not your bag http://dlo247.bandcamp.com/album/genetics
  9. Anybody that thinks Brum, in general, is a hole either hasn't travelled or has no concept of reality. Everywhere has bad parts. Manchester, Liverpool and Nottingham for example have three notoriously bad parts that could possibly rival the rough areas here. Except birmingham is larger and so understandably the rough areas are larger or more pronounced
  10. So I know a bunch of you are into photography, and there's a lot of quality on the VT board! Also some amazing graphic designers. But are there any video experts? I'm pretty sure there are. I have a youtube channel that is just my testing ground really. I use my iPhone and my gopro and I'm hoping to test out my nikon's soon. I want to see what you guys have uploaded to youtube, fun/geeky/howto/travel/'boring' whatever... I'm sure it can't be more random than mine. Mine is at http://youtube.com/dlo247 The last video I made was yesterday, actually I did two but one was just a test screen record. I'd appreciate new subscribes and I'll return the favour. If there are enough of us I'll probably put y'all into a playlist or however that works. Also if you have any ideas that are feasible then fire them on here. Vimeo users too! Vimeo seems classier but I find youtube is better for the general public searcher
  11. You paid way over the going rate man. Good news is the darn thing is gonna save your life. I had one a while back and it was the best £1 I spent I know I went for the pricey end, but after reading all the reviews the Philips one seemed the best and most long lasting. To be fair, it'll serve you well so the price will be irrelevant. I'd have paid a tenner and still been happy. great invention
  12. Grr. Just when I was thinking it might be cool, it's just a cool gimmick to grab their attention and direct them to the track online via an app and then other stuff on the app. Cool idea though

  14. Finally got 4 inhalers on one prescription again. So that's the last thing I bought. The tight doctor (who happens to run the midlands medical practice) stopped giving me multiples on one prescription a year ago.. just to get more money going into somebody's pockets.
  15. There's always a trade off. It lets in more light allowing a faster shutter and it gives a small depth of field which I think looks much better most of the time, but if your focus is off it will not look good.. that just means you are doing it wrong in my opinion. It shouldn't be a problem if you know how to focus properly. I always select focus points manually and that works well for me. Here's some shots I did at a rugby game. I had a 300mm f2.8 on a D7000, and pretty much every shot is between f2.8-3.2. You have to select the focus though. Like decide who to focus on or whether to focus on a face, the ball or something else. I.e. if you look at pic 8, the center players are in focus, but the ball and the guy coming in from the side are a bit blurry. In that case it would have been better to have them all sharp, but that might have resulted in camera shake. Cool images. I've never done sports on that scale, that looks pretty good. The D7000 is a sweet little camera too!!
  16. I just did that, and was delighted that he boosted my post-purchase rationalisation... The Best Camera for Everything The Nikon D3100 and included 18-55mm VR. What camera do I suggest for my friends and family when they ask? What's the best camera that can handle every kind of photo situation, but still at a reasonable price? The Nikon D3100. The Nikon D3100 is essentially the same as the newer Nikon D3200, and sells for only $477 with lens as shown, or refurbished for only $349 with lens as shown, or $497 brand-new with 18-55mm and 55-200mm (non-VR) lenses. (VR, Vibration Reduction, helps replace a tripod in low light.) You can pay more for fancier cameras, but no camera takes better pictures than a D3100. It sold for $700 when first announced. The reason guys like me pay more for fancier cameras isn't for better pictures; it's for more controls and options that let those few people who actually know how to use all the controls to get to them faster. The D3100 has all the same adjustments, just that you'll more often have to use a menu instead of a knob in the D3100 if you use them. If you shoot all day every day as I do, it's worth it, otherwise, there's no reason to pay more. The D3100 is far superior to any mirrorless, superzoom or compact camera because it's a real DSLR, meaning you view and the camera focuses live directly through the lens optically, not via an electronic screen. The D3100 focuses fast enough to catch people and kids doing anything in any light, while other kinds of cameras get lost hunting. Sure, you can buy fancier DSLRs, but you don't need to unless you want to. The D3100 is the most basic DSLR sold today, and is all I'd ever need. The extra pixels of the newer D3200 or other cameras are meaningless. Sure, feel free to pay more as I'll expand below, but you're only buying more durability or convenience, not better pictures. Better pictures come from knowing how to take better pictures, not from a better camera. Forget Rockwell. I say get this camera. I have one
  17. Ye it's a fun little camera. I had to delete that image as I noticed it wasn't quite ready.
  18. I see no signing today. Lerner out.
  19. For anybody interested in putting a watermark on their images using photoshop, it's pretty simple but you can create a brush from any image file. So you can make your logo, or hire a professional graphic designer if you have the budget/business that merits it, and then: Open image file in photoshop Select all or the part you want to use Go to Edit, Define Brush Preset And there it is. You can adjust the size and what not. I made a video about it, there are loads on youtube though and probably better but hey:
  20. I've had a few lenses over the years that I've sworn i'd never let go.. the 70-200 VR blew me away but eventually proved too big for my tastes. The 24 1.4 is still bigger than i'd like but that comes with the territory. I'm glad you noticed the look!! That's really cool! I haven't updated with new posts in a long while, mainly because most of my jobs have been private, for companies and people that annoying don't want to be blogged. Grr. But hey.. The price of the gopro's has come down a bit, at least in the mint second hand market. And if you go to the states... Mine just get's used on random stuff like this, not as epic as most gopro users but I'm getting there!
