my new floating bridge oud

SamirCanada - 11-18-2009 at 01:34 PM

Hello all,
I have been rather busy these days with new house and a new wife to take care of ;)

anyways I still managed to squeeze a new refurbishing project in there. I had this walnut bowl so I put a neck, pegbox and a new Canadian cedar top on it.
I think this may be my best sounding top so far. I will be trying to get a sound sample sometime soon.

thanks,

Samir

some body help me...

Hi Samir

Careful, these forums have withstood middle east politics, but importing the mac debate might just tip us into open warfare!

In iphoto, click share, export. It will give you a save as dialogue box with an option for the size of the photo in pixels. Alternatively, in preview, if you click save as it will give you a slider to adjust the quality.

I know, not so obvious, but once you're used to it...

Hi Philip,

Hi Samir :wavey:

Compress by u means?
Changing it to flash format .flv?

So you can post in Youtube? I'm I correct? u need a Video converter sofware to allow this. Download free from the net!
