Make photo more realistic

I was just wondering if anyone might have some suggestions for how to make the hand and cards look more realistic. It's a layered document, with the picture of the croupier, the cards, and the hand all on separate layers. I want it to look a bit more like the hand with the cards is part of the main photo, not just stuck on top. Any ideas?

Yeah, adding light interplay will be critical, but even then, the thing is going to look somewhat contrived because of the hand and card positioning. I assume the blurred out stuff is some clever marketing koolaid that has to show, and so you couldn't rearrange the cards more realistically...(?) No one holds them that way, even when the objective is to show them. Even if you could splay them that widely and evenly in your hand, there would be some curvature. I also think it would be okay to get the hand/cards a bit lower in the composition. The unnatural angle and height are contributing to my disbelief.
If it was my project, I'd consider taking a picture of a hand, (perhaps even my own), holding the 4 aces.

    This sounds more like a Windows question, than a Firefox question. When you say that an image shows up every time you open your computer, do you mean every time you turn on your computer, or every time you start Firefox?

  • How do you make photos handicap accessible?

    How do you make photos handicap accessible?

    What you are describing is Tooltips. If you search this forum you'll find some info but I think all of them require editing of the files post publishing - adding code with an app like MassReplaceIt.
    Tooltips will show in some browsers if you insert the image tag into an iWeb snippet and add your text to the title like so....
    <img src="http://www.domain-name.com/imagefile.jpg" title="Tooltip Text Goes Here" />
    The problem is that the text is small and it wouldn't be much use to partially sighted people.
    With the thought anything may be possible, I did a rough test to see if something could be done in an HTML Snippet. This is very rough and needs some more work to tidy it up....

  • Make pacman more verbose?

    Is there a way to make pacman more verbose in showing what packages are being installed or updated?
    For example, when doing a system update, you get a long list of packages that will be downloaded and installed. Most of them are packages you already have, but some may be new packages, pulled in as a new dependency of something else. I would like to more easily see if a package is a new install or an update, and what is causing the new packages to be installed.
    I used to use FreeBSD, and it's ports system did this. You do a system update, and it would list all of the packages to be installed, one per line. Each line indicated whether it was an update or a new install, if it was an update it showed the old -> new version numbers, and if it was a new install it showed what package depended on it.
    I haven't been able to find a way to make pacman do this, though I would be happy to be proven wrong. I've toyed with the idea of getting my hands dirty and writing some pacman patches to add this as an option, but I'd like to see if there are other solutions other people know about.

  • What iPhoto version is compatible with Lion OSX 10.7.5 and will it let me make photo calendars?

    What iPhoto version is compatible with Lion OSX 10.7.5 and will it let me make photo calendars?
    I have just upgraded from Leopard to Lion (via Snow Leopard) because I could no longer order photo calendars with iphoto 7.1.5.  However, I still have iphoto 7.1.5 and need to upgrade this.  From the App store it looks as though I cannot get iphoto 9.5.1 due to the incompatibility with Lion.  I was recemmended not to upgrade beyond Lion due to the age of my iMac computer (2008 version) by Stormfront staff.
    What is the best iphoto to upgrade to and how do I do this e.g. iLife '09 or '11, or are there any other 'stand-alone' versions of iphoto that would be compatible?  How do I know whether my computer is capable of upgrading to Mountain Lion?  I definitely want to be able to make photo calendars, books and cards.
    Thanks

    iPhoto '09 or '11 - purchase an iLife '09 or '11 DVD (amazon or eBay are potential sources) and install iPhoto and update to the latest version for your OS

    Books are no longer supported with iPhoto '08 (a roughly six yeal old product) - you can purchase an iLife '09 DVD from someplace like Amazon or eBay and install it - iPhoto '09 is still supported this year

  • Is it possible to make photos with the Ipod nano 5G?

    Is it possible to make photos with the Ipod Nano 5G?

    No. But you can take a photo of the video with your Mac.
    With the iPod connected to your computer, click on the iPod, open the DCIM folder & move the video file onto your desktop. Play the video & when you get to the part you want to take a picture of, put Quicktime on pause. Take a screen shot (appleshift3) or (appleshift4 for cross hair cropping) of the paused video.

  • I downloaded a handwritten doc that is illegible, can I make it more clear to read?

    The document is an old birth certificate. I can't read the names of the mother and father. I wonder if thebirth certificate department will help me?
    In the meantime, does any one know of a tool that makes writing more legible? (I've seen such a thing on television crime movies.

    What kind of document is that and how bad does it look?
    Is it a PDF file or an image file (JPG, PNG, TIFF) or something else?
    If you can extract it as an image then you can try to improve the contrast or gamma with an image editor or use other filters in such a program. It may not be possible to do much about this if the quality is really bad.

  • Make Code More Efficient

    I got this code to play some audio clips and it works alright. The only issue is that when I call the play method it lags the rest of my game pretty badly. Is there anything in the play method you guys think could be moved to the constructor to make it more efficient?
    package main;
    import java.io.*;
    import javax.sound.sampled.*;
    public class Sound
         private AudioFormat format;
        private byte[] samples;
        private String name;
         public Sound(String filename)
              name=filename;
              try
                AudioInputStream stream =AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(new File("sounds/"+filename));
                format = stream.getFormat();
                samples = getSamples(stream);
            }catch (Exception e){System.out.println(e);}
         public byte[] getSamples()
            return samples;
        private byte[] getSamples(AudioInputStream audioStream)
            int length=(int)(audioStream.getFrameLength()*format.getFrameSize());
            byte[] samples = new byte[length];
            DataInputStream is = new DataInputStream(audioStream);
            try
                is.readFully(samples);
            }catch (Exception e){System.out.println(e);}
            return samples;
        public void play()
             InputStream stream =new ByteArrayInputStream(getSamples());
            int bufferSize = format.getFrameSize()*Math.round(format.getSampleRate() / 10);
            byte[] buffer = new byte[bufferSize];
            SourceDataLine line;
            try
                DataLine.Info info=new DataLine.Info(SourceDataLine.class, format);
                line=(SourceDataLine)AudioSystem.getLine(info);
                line.open(format, bufferSize);
            }catch (Exception e){System.out.println(e);return;}
            line.start();
            try

                    if (numBytesRead != -1)

    I don't know much about the guts of flex, but I assume it's
    based on Java's design etc.
    Storing event.target.selectedItem in an objet should not be
    anymore efficient than calling event.target.selectedItem. The objet
    will simply be a pointer of sorts to event.target.selectedItem. At
    no point in the event.target.selectedItem call are you doing a
    search or something, so storing the result will not result in any
    big savings.
    Now, if you were doing something like
    array.findItem(something) 4 times, then yes, it would be to your
    advantage to store the data.
    Keep in mind that storing event.target.selectedItem in an
    object will probably break bindings....that may or may not be a
    problem. Objet doesn't support binding. There is a subclass of
    Object that does, but I forget which.
    Just a suggestion based on my knowledge of how data is stored
    in an object oriented language...this may not be the case in
    flex.

  • Make sizes more accurate?

    This script should make a rectangle the same size as the artboard.
    However if the artboard is 210mm wide the rectangle ends up being 210.002mm, is there any way to make this more precise?
    #target illustrator
    var docRef = app.activeDocument;
    var artboardRef = docRef.artboards;
    var activeAB = docRef.artboards[docRef.artboards.getActiveArtboardIndex()]; // get active AB
    //get artboard size
    var left = activeAB.artboardRect[0];
    var top = activeAB.artboardRect[1] ;
    var width = activeAB.artboardRect[2]-activeAB.artboardRect[0];
    var height = activeAB.artboardRect[1]-activeAB.artboardRect[3];
    //create box
    var box = docRef.pathItems.rectangle (top, left, width, height);
    box.fillColor = box.strokeColor = new NoColor();

    In regards to the artboard size, if I create a new docment with with the width of 595.276pt (displays as 595.28pt) the artboardRect gives: 595.2802734375
    If I then go to the artboard options and re-enter the 595.276pt the artboardRect gives the same as above.
    But then...
    If I use the artboard options to make the width 100pt  (The artboardRect gives 100.00048828125) and then go back again to 595.276pt the artboardRect gives the almost accurate result 595.27587890625
    Theres something weird going on there
    1) Why is the artboardRect not accurate to the Art Board size?
    2) Why does going to 100pt then 595.276pt give a more accurate rect than entering 595.276 on its own?
