Episode 126: Quick Karmic Frames

A short one this time ? I upgraded to Karmic Koala and did a clean install with new partitions and EXT4 filesystem. And now I am getting the important stuff back on the disk and leave the cruft out. This meant that a lot of the files needed for a proper podcast are still on the external disks.

I take a look a the new Folio by Jeff Curto at Lenswork ? because it?s an example of printing an image on paper with a different aspect ratio, the images are really good and Jeff is a friend and I hope he sells a lot of them. Jeff does two podcasts in the Photocas Network, Camera Position and The History of Photography. The last is the only podcast where I have experienced a coffee break.

I use an image from ?wbool63? from the forum to make some nice frames with G?MIC, the Swiss Knife plugin from France.

And I have done?.

No blackboard this time ? and no mobile version yet. The upgrade broke the toolchain, I have to compile ffmpeg to get it running again. Software patents are really ??.
