Nice work man! Glad I got to this early, while its going at 200+ KB a sec and not 50 KB a sec..

BillyBuck · 04-05-2003, 10:05 PM

Crap! I was going to download it on my dial up tonight...For some stupid reason I was thinking that the download was only 32 MB. My bad - that would be too small for that many players. Guess I'll have to download it at work on Monday.

Otherwise....well....you've seen the commercial

Hey Dodger - are these photos already in bitmap form? Just wondering.

Thanks for all of your hard work!

Great Work!!!!! With my Cable modem download was a snap. Keep up the great work.

Cheers,

Billy...yeah they are all ready to go in bitmap form.

Dodger. I dloaded the pack and I believe you can shave about 20mb off the file size by deleting the thumbs.db file from it. It is not needed in the zip.

DodgerBaseball · 04-06-2003, 12:00 AM

Okay, will do.

Big props to Ran for hosting this huge file and the roster set.

adventureran · 04-06-2003, 10:13 AM

I have pulled the thumbs.db out of your set and it is uploading now.

I also converted the set to jpg and added it separately for our dial-up friends. That version is only 5.5 MB. BatchThumbs 1.5 is available for fast conversion to bmp format as well.

Your roster set, both versions of the facepack & BatchThumbs are listed in the Directory. Link is in my sig.

Thanks for all your hard work in putting this together and for sharing with all of us.

I wondered why it was in .bmp format to begin with. A huge waste of bandwidth when .jpg can be converted very easily with Irfanview or any number of image programs. Still fine work by all involved.

DodgerBaseball · 04-06-2003, 04:45 PM

Thanks for that, someone did tell me to convert them all to jpegs, but i'm stubborn

adventureran · 04-06-2003, 04:49 PM

No problem. Do you want me to remove the bmp version?

BillyBuck · 04-06-2003, 04:53 PM

Ummm....looks like we have some bandwith limitation problems at the site, adventureran...?? FYI.

adventureran · 04-06-2003, 05:08 PM

Fixed. Thanks.

BillyBuck · 04-06-2003, 07:02 PM

Thank you, adventureran!

Kudos to Dodgerbaseball & all who have been involved with him on this project. It seems to have turned out very cool!

One question I am wondering about - and please don't take this as complaining - some of my photos are looking slightly hazy, quality-wise. I have converted them to .bmp form and they still look this way. Did I do something wrong? It's not a problem, I just wanted a 2nd opinion...kind of like Jeter.

Thanks again for all the hard work!

adventureran · 04-06-2003, 07:31 PM

I noticed this as well. Some also appeared rather dark. I just thought it was my old, failing eyes, though.

BillyBuck · 04-06-2003, 08:01 PM

LOL!! Well, it's nice to know that I'm not seeing things that aren't really there.

...either that or it's nice to know that my eyes are gettin worse, too.

Sir Real · 04-07-2003, 12:51 PM

I downloaded the smaller jpg version and I was very disappointed in the quality of the images. Most were very blurry. I figured that perhaps they did not translate well going from BMP to JPG.

I figured I would download the huge BMP file today, but I noticed it is no longer on Adventurean's page.

For those who downloaded the huge BMP file, did you find the picture quality to be poor?

adventureran · 04-07-2003, 01:05 PM

I compared several after they were converted and they looked nearly identical to their originals. But I will do a side-by-side of a greater number right now post the results here.
