The day the world became color!

Steve, I hope you don't mind that I played with one of the pics on your site.....but we came up with something special, that's big enough of a file to do in a poster size if you wanted, to accompany your set

Link to the pic.....it's a big one, so dial up is going to take a bit:

Thanks to my good friend John Bonner who took some time with helping me out with this one!

Looks like a scene out of the movie Pleasantville.

Hey Guys,
Thanks to fellow forum member Steve K. I was able to view the "Pleasentville" CT-100 pix. I think it would make a great poster and perhaps a t-shirt,

At first I was trying to figure out what you had done, then it hit me. "Doh"

Looks great, makes great desktop wallpaper!

Turns out that I have a good friend that works at an ad agency that might be able to do a run of posters, say 24 x 36 or larger. If I were able to pull off such a stunt , how many people would like one?

Kam,
No problem with you grabbing that CT-100 picture from my web page. I downloaded it from a somewhat obscure RCA site that offered the picture for downloading in both hi-res and lo-res formats. I would also like to have a poster and as I said perhaps a t-shirt with that picture.
Thanks,
Steve D.

This email I got from my friend John Bonner:

"I’m shipping two copies of the CD to your home tomorrow. You should have them by Thurs at the latest. There is one CD for your printer and one for you. You’ll see the directories on the CD are pretty self-explanatory. I also resized the photo retouch you liked into an 800x600 and 1024x768 wallpaper in case you wanted it. For your printer, the unflattened Photoshop files (version 7.0) are saved as both RGB and CMYK. I normally work in RGB (web design) but I’m pretty sure printers work in CMYK so I included it."

So we'll be able to do something soon

Well, if you have some time on your hands, help me search out a good place to get these done while we're waiting for the CD. It was shipped UPS and will be here Thursday
