For panoramas, you're going to stitch together multiple shots. A wide angle lens is good, but fisheye lenses are sort of overated. You would be better off getting a very wide lens that has little distortion, instead of a fisheye with massive distortion. You get a large view with the fisheye, but the corners are very warped…
Generally you'd want to make it useable on 1024x768. It's a good idea to aim for about 800 pixels wide or make a site that can fluidly stretch to fit any resolution. But you also want to remember that that's the full resolution of the monitor, not the amount of screen-space that a maximised browser window can display a…
Thanks :) and yea I'd say that the completion of the level is at 30% at the moment. The amount of work needed to be done is huge, its pretty much just landscape work at the moment but there will be a few focus areas that should make things more interesting. In the end the scale of the level turns this project into a…
I'm going to add to this by linking a few portfolios. They're all varied up in presentation style; however, they all get to the point super quickly. In addition, when uploading images to your site, do a Save-As for Web in photoshop to really get the file size down. I don't have any statistics for this, but the faster you…
Thanks for all the replies! Kwramm: yeah from US. My main reason for doing it is monetary, Japan and Korea had the best pay. But for some reason Korea had a ridiculous overflow of people so I was shooting for Japan.I talked to quite a few people doing it and it was such a mixed bag of reviews... I found a place in Tianjin…
You can try these variants of the flatten brush, they're supposed to perform more like the ZB 3.1 type. Download link is at the bottom of the first post. http://www.zbrushcentral.com/zbc/showthread.php?p=609040#post609040 and there's this advice for an original flatten approximation from a guy on CGTalk (here's a link a…
In my experience, you get what you pay for. I've been burned too often by AMD and ATI to really give them much consideration, now that they've teamed up I hear its gotten a little better but you should stay in "their family" and not mix and match Nvidia with AMD. I hear ATI driver support hasn't gotten much better since…
Yeah I've probably messed it up back when I had 801, I wish settings up configs and customizing UI was easier.. I'm not going to mess with it again, it was a nightmare! I'll just access it via the Edit menu I guess. Thanks!
