Taking votes on which pictures you wished were desktops...

Great as always and always appreciated greatly. Thanks! I'm looking forward to the spooky halloween themed pics.

Just for the sake of mentioning, I was gonna photoshop a quick pumpkin pie scattered with sugar cubes with coffee mixed in it with mountain dew frosting and ask if that's how mrs. daddyb makes it, but photoshop crashed

Much appreciated and welcomed, Db! Awesome update...

You really don't know how they achieve the "black hole" effect when you get to the end of Roger Rabbit?
Well, for those of you don't, lemme enlighten you:

Smoke and mirrors.
Ok, maybe not so much smoke as there are mirrors, but when your car gets locked into position (to prevent you from spinning it), you're facing Roger as he yells "I'll save you!", or something or other.

Anyway, as you head towards Roger and the big hole, you look to the left of the hole and see the wall as it continues. Well, it's what you call ye' old mirror trick. All it simply consists of is a reflection of the wall designed to give depth. When Roger "extends" his arm (do I really have to explain that one?), the hole, which is just an extension of the corridor, slides back into the wall, thus hiding the mirror and appearing to make you "escape".

Makes sense? Probably not....

DaddyB · 10-03-2005, 09:25 AM

Yup... it's been explained to me that way before, and I even have a decent picture of it in action... I just can't put it together in my mind. I think it's one of those things that will always stay as some Dark Disney magic.

Loneknight · 10-03-2005, 09:43 AM

Maybe I can Photoshop it and break down the elements for you....unless you want to just let Disney magic remain "Disney Magic"?

/Sorry, itchin' to use Photoshop.... :P

ATSF&DLRR · 10-03-2005, 01:12 PM

DLRgoer · 10-03-2005, 06:27 PM

DaddyB!

I really appreciate you doing these updates! It is something to look forward to and motivate me to finish my hours of homework!

calvin3 · 10-03-2005, 07:25 PM

Thank you very much DaddyB! My wife keeps asking when I am going to stop changing my desktop picture.

Never NEVER NEVER!

Thanks again.

**Disneyland_Wolf** · 10-03-2005, 09:33 PM

Thanks Daddyb! That's funny, today there is less people today in the park. But in weekends usually a bit lot. By the way my B-day is tomorrom!

Legend_S · 10-03-2005, 10:27 PM

Awsome shots, cant wait till your halloween pics. Oh I would wish a Star Tours wally of the StarSpeeder 3000, just wonder how you can catch the magic with that. thanks a bunch.

ryguy222 · 10-03-2005, 10:32 PM

Great pics, always gives me a short break while doing my piles of homework
I think you should get a nice picture of matterhorn or space mountain for a desktop (for next update) just a suggestion
thx

DaddyB · 10-04-2005, 08:02 AM

uh, did you look at this week's update? There already is a picture of the Matterhorn as a desktop. And if you check my past updates, you'll find several desktops of Space Mountain.

I'm not a big Star Tours fan, so I rarely go in there. It'll happen someday, but I doubt very soon.
