Spotlight on Dub 3

This is Winnie (or Double-Huh). Also known as Nascar Winnie because she runs around the house in a circle. We think she runs around in circles because she thinks she is so fat. "Oh my gosh, I'm so fat," she routinely yells at us as she screams past us for another lap around the house. She says it really fast though, so it sounds like "ohmygoshimsofat," and you have to include the doppler effect in that as well. I guess it would be "o h m y GOSHIM s o f a t". These are some new pictures we took while playing around with our new point and shoot (G9).

Big Bro (ICC Profiles)

Don't you even think about messin with my little sis...

Standard Adobe color profile... The one that most web browsers pretend doesn't exist.


Standard RGB color profile... Web browsers also won't see this ICC profile, but it doesn't matter because it mimics the color rendered by the monitor (so to speak)

So, apparently (after a little reading) IE and some other browsers like to discard or ignore the ICC (International Color Consortium) profile embeded in the jpeg you post online. You have to convert to the profile used by web browsers to get pseudo accurate color reproduction between the picture you are editing and the picture that you see on the web browser (when doing a side-by-side comparison on the same monitor). This is done in PS by selecting Edit->Convert to Profile...->Working RGB

I tried to make the differences obvious in the above images (glance at the green in the background). Hope this helps someone...

Double Dub


Another game we all play is "Where is Hayne?"
Walker and Winnie are looking. They just need to look down.

Spotlight on Dub 2

Waylon is the big dog in our house, tipping the scales at 93 lbs.

That is a mighty handsome waddle you got there buddy.


Story time: Sarah wanted a chocolate lab without droopy eyes.
We got a yellow lab with droopy eyes. Ask her if she would want
it any other way now.


He doesn't know how to lay down gracefully. All 93 lbs impact the floor at
exactly the same time. It is a good alarm clock at 3 AM when he re-situates
himself.

Ain't he purtee?
