Library Updates

Post by Merlin66 »

I'm about 50% up to date with the latest additions to the Library.
Should be complete by tomorrow.
If there's something I've missed, let me know......
Any feedback on the content/ layout so far?????

Great Merlin,
Have you got Earl's 3 tutorials on how to put a scale Earth on your picture?

Also Mark Townley's very important video on full disc processing?

If you can't find them I may have to look for them tomorrow as I am a bit busy here at work tonight.

I've nothing to add Ken.

But I learnt more in one day of reading through it all than I did picking up scraps all over the electrical interweb.

So for me, it has been an extremely valuable resource. :)

I guess what I'm trying to say is thank you. For a relative newbie like me it's a big hit.

Cheers

Ian

Merlin,

"Tutorial: Flat fielding with Autostakkert2 (Chris)" link is not working.
It needs to be changed to http://www.schursastrophotography.com/s ... icle5.html

Cheers

Link looks abbreviated, but even with an edit remains the same!
Works OK if you click on it.

Weird.
Is working now, but before when I clicked on it it went to abbreviated address & was getting:

"The page you requested is NOT AVAILABLE
A general error has occurred "

Joe,
There are a couple of pretty big images which may be causing your issues.
Try downloading the .pdf and then opening on your machine.....that seems to work OK.

Hi

I have compiled a list of online TV programs, videos and lectures in chronological order and dating back to 1956 if this is suitable for inclusion there are links to view them all!

Regards

Andy
