Yikes! Glad you and your family are OK. I hope that there are no long term repercussions and that you all really do come out unscathed!

Yikes! Sorry about the damage! Sure glad that it was contained and didn't go further, it could have been bad! Hope for the best on your coral.

Got to love the Actions feature in PS! Aldie, let us know how it goes with the underwater pics. That said, I suspect all will be well.

LOL! That's funny Phong! In all seriousness, it is truly amazing what photoshop can do.

Thanks for the comments guys. Yes, totally worth getting the camera considering that it's under $300. Just make sure to turn the camera on before entering the water. Also, a little knowledge of photoshop helps bring out the colors as well. I ended up creating an Action in PS that I could use to...

Lyn, The guide said that the Needle mouthed fish eat the sea grass. He plucked some of the grass, threw it to the surface, and sure enough they went right for it. Alve, Now that I know what I know, I recommend turning on the camera before entering the water. If the door isn't closed it will...

Belize was great. My girlfriend and I were there for 8 days which really wasn't long enough. I'm completely ready to go back again for a longer stay. I found the people of Belize to be easy going and laid back and helpful when help was needed. The only place that wasn't quite as friendly was...

Hi All, Just returned from a trip to Belize. It was my first time there and had a great time. For the trip I bought an Olympus 1030SW point and shoot camera for about $280 to take underwater pics. It worked great up until it decided that the battery door was open and promptly died. Thing was...

I agree with Eric. The onboard flash simply doesn't have the light output of an external flash. With an external flash you can be further away from a subject and still have some fill flash. You can use an external flash unit to bounce light off of a wall or ceiling instead of having it focused...

Rich, sorry to hear about the loss!

Those are nice features! It's nice to have a greater integration of the CS Suite of products. I primarily use PS but occasionally use AI to trace or do vector images. I'll probably pick up another monitor during the christmas season as like you I can really utilize both (my other hobby is music...

GreshamH, Good to hear about CS4. I've been pondering the upgrade. What features are you liking? Just curious.

Hi Anthony, Other things that can be manipulated as well, this may depend upon the software that you use and what version of that software. As an example, If you have Photoshop CS3 or CS4 you can adjust sharpening, color saturation, and so forth, in addition to what Ian stated. As far as post...

I live near the Richmond Costco, and since I needed a few things I thought I'd go and check it out at a little after 9am this morning. My thinking was that if it was really crazy busy I'd just turn around and go home. Much to my surprise there were fewer people than normal! I went in, got the...

Really, had a good time today, and wish to thank everyone who had a hand in it. I'm the lucky one who walked away with the Vortech today and still can't believe it. I look forward to next year's BAYMAC.

I've been looking forward to this and am happy that the date and time work out for me (I've yet to make a meeting). Sounds like it should be a great event. Is tomorrow here yet? ;D Look forward to seeing you all there!

Very cool Jay! Looks like you have the 28g JBI HQ150, which is what I have. Had mine for about 1.5 years or so now. I too did the actinic mod and really like it. This tank definitely needs the chiller so that was a good move. I like the way you placed the rocks, if I had to do mine over again...

Sounds like fun everyone! Unfortunately I won't be able to make this meeting either! Just bad timing as I've wanted to attend one for some time now...The good news is that the reason I won't be able to make this is that I'll be in Belize!!!

I once made a 10g sump but didn't realize that the silicone that I bought was white and not colorless. I was so eager to put the thing together that I went ahead and used the white silicone. Needless to say, it is without doubt the ugliest and most pathetic looking sump you will ever see! I'm...
