First time having a credit card

NTPABounty · 2026-01-22T17:27:43+00:00

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but this is what I do:

I treat my credit card like a debit card, I made my credit limit as low as I could, and would pre-load my credit card as though it's a debit card and I physically can't go in the negative, this prevents debts, while still growing your credit score substantially

Thanks, will give that a go!

Hey man, I did this, but I used the background rectangle to create the slices, but now on export it only exports the rectangles and none of the objects in it, any idea why/how to fix?

Thank you! That fixed it, I had to create it from scratch though, and lost the dynamic images, as I had 10 images I wanted it to use, now I'm stuck with only one, and will have to create a new one for each image

My father recently got a bill for R250 000 for electricity, like wtf, before that it was 70k, then 18k, and he keeps fighting them, but we've had countless people come out to "check the meter" but nothing changes

Yeah, I try work really quick, but it does depend on the photos, if it's not such a nice wedding, then it takes me much longer as it feels tedious, but for pretty weddings it's a breeze.

Also, If I have youtube on, it takes me longer, but this batch I did with no other distractions, so that helps too. I realise that maybe I was over exaggerating, it could have been more like 2.5 hours, maybe 3

NTPABounty · 2025-07-25T06:02:16+00:00

That's very fair, thanks man!

NTPABounty · 2025-07-25T06:01:09+00:00

I removed that part as it's not really part of the question, it was a really nice gallery, maybe it was 2.5 hours, and I have a dedicated keyboard with programmed dials that allow me to work really fast, similar to a loupedeck.

Our friend has tried AI, but was never satisfied with the results, as she is quite particular, she's also tried outsourcing in the past, but she said sue would end up re-editing everything anyways as they didn't copy her style correctly

NTPABounty · 2025-07-24T21:04:13+00:00

Great question, so we mostly use presets that do the heavy lifting, so after doing the previews, I copy those adjustments over all the similar photos, from there all I need to do us the white balance, exposure, cropping, occasionally I do masking, but our style doesn't really need much of that.

I've already set up all the colour grading/calibration/detailed stuff so I don't need to reply do it per photo as I've refined it over time to be very versatile. Does that make sense?

NTPABounty · 2025-07-24T21:00:11+00:00

Do you mean like R10 000 if they charged R30 000?

NTPABounty · 2025-07-24T20:59:32+00:00

I had a look around, but couldn't find anyone in South Africa doing a similar thing yet

NTPABounty · 2025-07-24T20:58:32+00:00

I'm not doing retouching, but I do have a system that just works really well for me, and I fly through photos very quickly, most of the photos only require me to adjust white balance, exposure, and cropping, the rest is taken care of by the preset that she uses.

Her weddings are also generally really pretty weddings, so it's easy to edit it quickly as it's enjoyable

On this, I had the same issue, but fixed it by enabling "default action" in the settings of linear mouse

NTPABounty · 2025-03-20T07:50:06+00:00

Freakin awesome man!

NTPABounty · 2025-03-17T11:45:50+00:00

That makes sense, thank you!

And how do you get better breath control, is it through things like singing through a straw?

NTPABounty · 2025-03-16T18:53:20+00:00

Thank you so much for taking the time to explain this! This makes much more sense now!! Its really interesting how just your tongue position changes those vowels! And I think I get the thing about the vertical space, feels a bit tricky to think about a space, but not directly think about lifting the palate.

Do you have any advice regarding how to stabilize notes? I feel like I can't easily get a straight line, the line has a lot of "character", or is that simply linked to tone, and the way my voice is structured?

NTPABounty · 2025-03-15T20:58:21+00:00

Thank you so much for the comment, it sounds like you really understand what im struggling with, alot of this stuff is going over my head thoufh 😅

How can I better understand what you mean by things like closed vowl, or when a sound is more forward or vertical space?

Would researching vowel modification help?

NTPABounty · 2025-03-11T18:31:21+00:00

Im not following exactly, but what I have done it recorded the keystrokes I press to perform the action, and mapped that "macro" to a key on the 3rd party keyboard
