I found my camera and was playing with all the shots till I got it just right. Turned out pretty good I think.

Nice, but lose the flash or direct light that's on there. Good indirect lighting will instantly improve your photo quality by a mile

I'll play with it some more. Any tips how I can do the indirect lighting?

Daylight > *

But if you don't have any, there are plenty of options. As long as your direct flash is off, you lose the hard drop shadows and the blingy stuff.
If possible, you could direct your flash away from the object (upwards or something), or suppress your flash and use different light sources.

Make a small ghetto "studio" frame from old white bedsheets or pillow covers if you really want to go all out

I believe I've posted a couple how-to's in this thread. IIRC, one was mine from reviewing here at TPU and the second was another guide I found online. Search my posts for them...

Or if you have a cupboard/wardrobe/etc. that is white, you could use that too (temporarily making it empty) combining it with a desk light. If that white is not white enough as it seems in the yellowish halogen lighting, you could lay some sheets of paper in it (making a fold in those that need to form a background).
Examples (cell phone, so the colors and sharpness could not be much better than this):

I was hoping for mod parts to be available, but they went the route of reinventing the TJ07.

Is that the nickel/acetal or copper/acetal? Please let me know how that block does, as I'm looking at upgrading my block if something better comes again.

Finally foudn a use for it. It's been collecting dust for a long time, but cleaned up pretty good, methinks! :roll:

I actually thought about getting another for X79. SUPER BLING!!!!

I'd have to get differnt VGAs though...ones that have lights on the VRMs.... :pimp:

Get a couple of lightning 680s, that will look great.

Are you offering me yours? I'll trade you...a cookie?

Yeha, I was thinking that the MSI Z77 MPower board and those cards plus the AIrflow pro might be a nice build. I don't have those cards though, dammit.

GLS came with this package about 20mins ago, while i was watching Hyouka.

If anyone wanna see more open the spoiler :toast:

Can u guess what this is? ^^;

It's replacing my old Cougar CM700 80Plus Bronze ^^

It really looks good matching my black CM690II Advanced, and yes ino some cables ain't sleeved in there but i will still survive :pimp:

dj-electric · Sep 10, 2012

Athlonite · Sep 10, 2012

i hope so, bcs i always got told SeaSonic is the best to make a psu, but i feel like hot air comming out of the back, but the fan only turns on when it needs to so, i guess SeaSonic knowns what they r doing ^^

Athlonite said:

it's from someone on tweak.dk's forum bought it second handed but looks really good only had some screw marks on the back and this CPU 8-pin looks like someone has been hungry but luckly there is two of them ^^

Look in the spoiler to see what i mean.

Picture is taking with my LG Optimus 2X P990 i guess it had a hard time focusing ^^;

Athlonite · Sep 10, 2012

yoinks I hope it wasn't chewed while it was in use

actually after looking at it again I'd hazard a guess that the previous owner used pliers to pull it out and broke it as it looks to clean a damage for being chewed
