Post your deskthority header images here

[scottc]

Agh! So close but not what I want. Thanks anyway!

That keyboard looks like it was assimilated by the Borg.

very good scott.

The corrugated sheet metal area on the top right corner is interesting!

It's plastic though

hello, saw this archaic desk-keyboard/cpu (Honeywell 316)
and I wish to see how this thing works and if there's interest,
image editing is minimal for testing.

... ok I see, I don't like, but I understood how it works...

Awesome. It would nicely complement the blue Sanders header. It needs a better crop though. His head is too cut off.

Size should be 980x190. Edit: Ah, I see you fixed it.

[facetsesame]

Honeywell 316... isn't that desk version the notorious Kitchen Computer?

[Anticube]

His head is too cut off.

found another source without the cutted head

What a coincidence... just as I was looking over an old post where I said I liked seebart's "naked cage" header:



... the current Deskthority header just happened to change to the other (inferior) version that was chosen:



I want the other one!

I think slightly larger (cutting off some of the teletype) or shifted left a bit and fix the red cloned bits and it should work nicely.

[Anticube]

So that was a serious palm rest!
Bloody red do not follow DT style anyway that's how the original was.
I can make bit clones smoother if it works.

I love it! Now we just need to wait for our Scotsman's approval.

[Muirium]

Aye. It is done. A bit blurry for my taste, but a fine colour and fantastic computer.

The alternate naked cage you like is a bit busy for my eye. I prefer the symmetry and pattern of the version I chose. To quote the venerable Dr. Katz: it's not so much that I'm arguing with you, but just agreeing with what I said.

[idollar]

It is difficult to crop ...

[Muirium]

I like the colours and the patterns. But I can't handle the focus. Ah well.

[chzel]

Just a couple of tests,
I finally finished the Nerd60 and these are some crops to see how the work, more photos in a couple of days!

I like the first one best. But no decisions are final on iPhone! The composition's nice. The others are a bit mega bokeh macro to me.

[chzel]

Yeah, the second and third are indeed mega bokeh! The second's bokeh is too busy and ring-like, but the third's is rather smooth!
I seebarted them a couple of times

[webwit]

You should put your favourite on top.

I like the angles of the middle two, but it might be nice if the focal plane were at the second or third switch away instead of the first. Then it would have more visible detail and not be quite so mega-bokeh. Stopping down one from F/1.4 or whatever you shot at might help too.

[idollar]

I like the second. The angle in the switch ....

[seebart]

I like the second. The angle in the switch ....

Yes the second one is my pick too.

well like I said before as far as I`m concerned you can have any of my headers or the original files...but as you know I don`t pick the headers!

[Muirium]

@Chzel: The second one's growing on me, but the bokeh is no okay. So, um, if you care to shoot it again but at like f/5.6 or something, do update! It's a pretty board.

[Khers]

I kind of like the fourth one, but would it be possible to make a slightly tilted crop of it so that the area behind the logo is a bit blurrier? As it is now, I think it's a tad too sharp in that area to really work.

[chzel]

So, um, if you care to shoot it again but at like f/5.6 or something, do update! It's a pretty board.

As a matter of fact, the second and third both are shot at 55mm f/5.6...On a crop sensor no less...
Maybe I'll try another session later, f/22, all the way into diffraction!

@Khers Is this what you mean?

[Khers]

Second one is exactly what I was looking for, I think it works really well!

[Muirium]

Yeah. Looks nice. I just might let it in.

So. What's with the red dots on the stabs?

[chzel]

I clipped the damping "legs" from some stabs and marked them for easy identification!
