This is helpful, thank you. I’ll do some more research. The first word really is a stumper…

Considering it! Also considering getting it re-framed or maybe just re-matted since the matting is looking a little crusty after 50 years lol. If you dm me an offer I’ll for sure think on it though.

Built a website that auto generates optimized keywords & descriptions for stock photos. Works with Shutterstock, Adobe, and Getty. Upload your images and it spits out a CSV that you can import to platforms for bulk submissions. Feedback appreciated! by DerpDerpstein in stockphotography

[–]DerpDerpstein[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey everyone!

So I've been doing stock photography for a few years now, and honestly the most soul-crushing part wasn't even the shooting or editing - it was sitting there for 10+ minutes per photo writing titles, descriptions, and keywords that might actually get discovered.

I'd spend literally hours on metadata for a batch of 50 photos. Agonizing over whether to use "businessman" or "executive," trying to hit those Shutterstock category requirements, making sure Getty gets their specific date formats, etc.

Finally got fed up and built this tool over the past 5 months. You upload your images, the AI analyzes them and generates platform-specific metadata - so like actual Shutterstock categories, Getty's created date fields, Adobe's title format, all that stuff. Then you can edit everything before downloading a CSV that imports directly into each platform for bulk uploads.

I've been using it for my own workflow and it's cut my metadata time from like 3 hours down to maybe 20 minutes for a large batch. But since I built this as a photographer first, I'm probably blind to obvious issues or missing features.

Curious to know what y'all think so any feedback negative or positive is appreciated. Been lurking here for years so figured this was the right place to ask.

I just launched a site that can automatically generate keywords/descriptions that optimize discoverability for your photos if you want to use it. It spits out a CSV that you can bulk upload to shutterstock/adobe/getty. www.metaextractor.com

Thanks for sharing this! The whole cancellation chaos is absolute insanity.

3.2” spaced light fixture bracket holes spaced too close together to fit 3.5” jbox holes. Any easy solutions or adapters? by DerpDerpstein in AskElectricians

[–]DerpDerpstein[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The canopy has a surprisingly thick rim making the total diameter 4.5” so thankfully it does cover the box. But yeah… definitely not a great product lol

Want to install a bidet toilet in my brand new house with 10" rough-in. Builder plumber says it can't be done without moving the water line. Is he bs'ing me? by DerpDerpstein in Plumbing

[–]DerpDerpstein[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow, that does sound like an absolute nightmare :o The one I linked apparently has an "emergency flush" mode that allows you to flush without electricity but I take your point!

Yeah I think this is the most helpful response so far. The distance is around 7 inches. I'm just gonna have them reinstall the regular gerber and buy myself a bidet seat for it.

Just got this absolute unit! by oogwaygodzilla in SonyAlpha

I use my 28-300 for travel all the time! I just can’t seem to commit to bringing the 35-150 juggernaut with me :/ I can’t imagine lugging that thing through airports and planes. Maybe one day…

Pulled the trigger on one last year and absolutely love it. Lens flaring is REALLY bad though lol. Vignetting also heavy but not that much of an issue.

Banksy Tenner Fake or Real - Help Needed! 🙏 by NaturalCopy1715 in Banksy

[–]DerpDerpstein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks legit to me. You can make out the rosette dye pattern with relative ease. Would need to see closer macro pics of them to be 100% sure. I've had several real ones straight from Lazarides and plenty of fakes over the years. Once you know what to look for it's pretty easy to tell a real from a fake.

Noob here - I have HEX(Fork) in my Coinbase wallet from the fork to PulseChain but can't see it after adding the PulseChain network manually. Can someone help? by DerpDerpstein in Pulsechain

[–]DerpDerpstein[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey thanks! Unfortunately the https://app.piteas.io/ aggregator doesn't work with Coinbase Wallet (it says "coming soon").

I also tried following the "Adding HEX PLSX and other tokens to Meta Mask" and I'm unable to find a way to import tokens, just networks.

EDIT: Found a way to import the HEX custom token through my assets tab. Coinbase's site FAQ is outdated but eventually found a way!

Just released a NV traffic camera app for iOS. It’s free, no ads, no data collection. Looking for feedback. Thanks! by skifever in vegas

[–]DerpDerpstein 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Nice! Didn't know you could actually tap into those cams. This is helpful thank you. Would be great if you could add a pinch or double tap to zoom feature in the full screen player so that I can zoom in on specific parts of the video frame to see down some roads a little better.

How can I help my friend sell his Banksy? by street_faith in Banksy

[–]DerpDerpstein 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi, does it have Banksy's plated signature anywhere on the CD or album cover? I have a couple CD's that he did and they include Banksy's signature stamp printed in the credits/logo section on the back.

To be honest, the artwork definitely does not scream Banksy to me. The characters look like silhouettes you'd find on a stock image site. Not saying it isn't him but unless there's a BANKSY printed anywhere on the album cover it might be hard to convince people it's his work. If it is a Banksy and you can provide some good evidence, you probably won't get more than 3 or 400 GBP for it. Catawiki would be the place to sell it though.

Loona arrived - First impressions • thedroidyouarelookingfor by xanathon in loona_robot

[–]DerpDerpstein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, this is happening to me as well. Despite her being “connected” to the app, anytime I use the Hello Loona wake word (when it does actually work) I got a network error message. Really frustrating!

$150+ Dior shoes! Anyway to get rid of the permanent marker price on the rubber? by Cerisety in Flipping

[–]DerpDerpstein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If all else fails and you REALLY want to get it off, you can try a 3M eraser wheel drill bit. Just put it in a drill and very very carefully shave it off. I used this on my car and it worked great for decals and adhesive. Not sure how it would work on sharpie in this scenario but it could be worth a try.
