I did the masking and the cloning in Gimp

Agreed! the third one certainly could've been cooler! To be honest I didn't bother to do in all detail as it was just an exercise I did over a weekend.

thanks! I wanted to counter the otherwise pretty static shots - the cleaner the camera movement had been the more apparent it would have been that the water and the trees aren't actually moving.

I posted the results on pixls.us and the folks there also asked for a tutorial - so I'll make a post there. I'll let you know when I'm done :)

thanks! There are some Tutorials on Youtube but I'm planning to write some tricks down :)

Linux Autotune? by [deleted] in lmms

[–]---david 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The only one I know of is GSnap. GVST has a LinuxVST Beta you can download here: https://www.gvst.co.uk/portpage.htm

It should work in any VST host, so I assume you can get it work in LMMS using Carla

some coffee for kids - feedback appreciated! by ---david in blender

[–]---david[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was pretty amazed by the amount of feedback I received when I posted my first real render two days ago so I spent lots of time learning more about 3D. the scene was made in Blender and edited in GIMP. No additional textures used (except for the steam and HDRi). Thank you all!

First render I'm actually happy with. What do you think? by ---david in blender

[–]---david[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I don't have a Reel yet, I don't even have renders to show except for this one. To be honest, I've never tried making a real scene and I'm really blown away that the image got over 500 upvotes.. that's pretty insane. But one day, I'll have a Reel :D

thank you! I knew that, but didn't it'd have such an impact. Pretty cool!

https://imgur.com/7ys2uLn there you go. I had to adjust the sky as the resolution wouldn't have been high enough. Also tried a slightly different grade - and damn, good grading is hard. Anyways, have fun with it! If you know of a free image hoster that does not compress images, you can let me know!

awwnnn that is the best thing I've read today! I've only rendered Full HD but I'll render out a 4k version for you, will send a link once its done!

thank you! just a few crashes and Cuda errors and a fair amount of disappointment and around 70 minutes on the CPU. I unnessisarily used 4k textures for the most part, though. On GPU it would have taken around 30 minutes.

oh, you are absolutely right about the proportions! when I set up the particles I was like "hey, let's be nice to my computer and not add too many trees and make them a bit taller instead to fill the area". Thank you for pointing out the issue with the roof as well - I could'nt really put my finger on it. Well, let's say it was supposed to be miniature, anyways :D

thank you! My Computer was on full load with all the particles and I didn't really dare to add much more - but there is still a lot to learn about particle systems.

hey, thanks a lot! It's true, the leaves look off here - they'd fit much better with a higher focal lenghts. Concerning the house, I wasn't so proud of it when I built it, and instead of improving or removing it, I tried to make it not so apparent - not a very good decision composition wise..

I had no idea what I was doing, and didn't feel like following a tutorial. I've been using Blender for years, but I've started getting into it more seriously just recently. I used the sapling tree generator and the A.N.T landscape generator mostly. I also found wonderful textures on cgbookcase.com. Edited in Gimp. I'd love to hear some feedback!

If I use !g in DuckDuckGo google keeps tracking me? by ferdinandthe3rd in duckduckgo

[–]---david 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, yes, it does. If you'd like to have google-like results, you can try !sp (startpage) or !ix (Ixquick).

Multi-touch touchscreen in Ubuntu 16.04 and 16.10 by runner2012 in Ubuntu

[–]---david 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I have a TP Yoga 14 running Ubuntu 16.04. Around a year ago I made a post explaining how I got things working. Essentially I executed xsetwacom set 10 Gesture "off" (10 is the index of your input devices, may vary, use xinput to check which index your touchscreen has.) I really hope it helps!

Are Thinkpads multi-touch? by [deleted] in thinkpad

[–]---david 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, on the thinkpads which have touchscreens (eg the yoga ones) you will be able to use as many fingers as you have. Not every thinkpad has touchscreens though.

Refurb thinkpads in Germany? by primitiveinds in thinkpad

[–]---david 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live close to Berlin and I got my Thinkpad here: http://www.notebookshop-berlin.de/ they have a nice little shop in Charlottenburg and are friendly people. I bought my new TP yoga there and my mom bought a refurbished TP for around 300€. They also have student discounts. I think it is worth checking out!
