Welcome Message

[edit]

Welcome!

Welcome to Wikipedia, Mike1024! My name is Ryan, aka Acetic Acid. I noticed that you were new and haven't received any messages yet. I just wanted to see how you were doing. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it uses different formatting than other sites that use HTML and CSS. In the long run, though, you'll find that the WikiSyntax is a lot easier and faster than those other ways. Here are a few links to get you started:

There are a lot of policies and guides to read, but I highly recommend reading over those first. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Please be sure to sign your name on Talk Pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, along with a link to your user page. This way, others know when you left a message and how to find you. It's easier than having to type out your name, right? :)

I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikipedia. We can use all the help we can get! Have a nice day. Sincerely, Acetic'Acid 14:01, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

Geneva Mechanism

[edit]

That is a FANTASTIC animation for Geneva Mechanism. Thanks! Ppe42 11:38, 29 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Please use Wikimedia Commons to upload you images. Thanks, Saperaud 02:49, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]


The reasons I havn't done this in the past include:

  • Don't like creating new accounts; would like single sign-on.
  • Don't want my edit history, messages, user pages etc split over two servers; would like them unified.
  • Don't like having files split over servers; would like a 'move all images to commons' tool.

When those things are present, I will happily use commons for all my image uploading. Until then, my images are all licensed such that you can use them anywhere without restriction - You can copy them yourself if you want to use them!

Cheers,

I noticed that you have been involved in transformers, I thought that you might be able to help out with the substation design / protection section. If you are an electrical eng. student then you might be able to ask one of your tutors if they have ever heard of an event called the luton flashover. It was a major substation failure in the UK which lead (many years ago) to a national power outage and a profound chnage in substation design. If you can help please contact me on my talk page Cadmium 12:23, 1 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the tip on my talk page, please if possible could you give me more details. The event which you are describing sounds similar to the events during the oct 1987 storm which caused the power to go off in London.

BTW do you get taught much about power systems on your BEng ? Cadmium 21:15, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

GIF animation

[edit]

Hi Mike

I noticed that you were the one who had uploaded Image:Geneva mechanism 6spoke animation.gif to WP. What a great animation! The reason why I'm writing is because I am wondering who you have achieved such a smooth motion. I recently uploaded Image:3-phase flow.gif, and the performance is disappointingly jerky. The frames of this animation were created in Inkscape, converted to PNG, imported into Photoshop, and then built into a 36-frame animation (10° steps) in Adobe ImageReady. If you could give me any pointers as to how the Geneva mechanism GIF was created, I would be grateful. Incidently, I would give some thought to nominating the image as a Featured picture. --BillC 22:50, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your response. My original version was 824x526 pixels. The performance of this in Firefox was so poor that I didn't think of uploading it in that form and shrunk it by 50% before uploading it. Strangely, it runs a lot better in IE. What I surprising is that some animated GIFs that are larger (in terms of file size) that this animation run more smoothly. I've uploaded the full-size version: it's at Image:3-phase flow large.gif. It's running jerkily there, but better when you click on 'Download high-resolution version'. If you could spare the time to see if you can optimise it, I'd appreciate it. Many thanks, --BillC 18:12, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

3D Studio Max

[edit]

Do you still have the files you used in creating the gear animation? I haven't used 3D Studio Max before, but would like to create an animation. The easiest way to learn is probably to see working examples. — 0918BRIAN • 2006-01-27 08:02

  • I've been looking at 3D Studio Max, and I know what I want to animate, I'm just not sure how to do a couple things: animating a string wrapped around a spindle, and animating a flexible diaphragm surface bending. I'm trying to do a 3D animation of this device (the first diagram). — 0918BRIAN • 2006-02-6 04:20

So far, so good. I've tried searching for a tutorial on wire wrapped around a pulley, but couldn't find anything. My situation is a spool with a wire wrapped once completely around it. As the wire is pulled, the spindle turns. — 0918BRIAN • 2006-02-8 02:47

  • I made a line, applied the rope reactor modifier, then added the line to a "rope collection", then i turned the cylinder into a rigid body, and attached the line to the rigid body... but I can't figure out how to get it to wrap around the cylinder. — 0918BRIAN • 2006-02-8 03:21
  • Nevermind, I think I figured out how to do it with a helix spline. I'll bug you if I need help :) — 0918BRIAN • 2006-02-8 15:21

I've put a basic layout up for this image. I havn't come across the column versions etc much before - where are they normally used? Cheers, Mike1024 (t/c) 00:01, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There are four versions, which can all be accessed from the archive pages Archive. POTD row is the version used on the Main Page. POTD column is the version used on most of the Main Page alternatives, including the classic Main Page. Picture of the day is the boxed version with caption, and is used on many user pages. POTD is the boxed picture without the caption, and is also used mostly on user pages. Thanks for the help. --Go for it! 00:52, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

About the WikiBreak enforcer.

[edit]

Its extremely easy to bypass. Anyone with a basic knowledge of Javascript will figure it out. Maybe using an external time server would do the trick? Anyway, even if someone doesnt know anything about javascript, they can easily look in the past versions of the page, where a few users tell how to bypass it. I may be wrong, but I am pretty sure that there is a way for admins to delete or hide previous versions of pages. May want to ask an admin about that or something. Cheers!

Color components (HSV, RGB)

[edit]

Hi Mike. Nice work on the pictures you uploaded to HSV color space and RGB color model. I wanted to let you know that I edited the former as I felt it was a tad large. Feel free to revert the edit. Also, I played around with your concept in Borland Delphi for a few minutes... I came up with the following images after minor adjustments:

Image:Barn grand tetons hsv alternative.jpg Here the hue component is identical to your version, however I used the saturation and value components on a grayscale (black = 0, white = 1, as opposed to the white-red, black-red scales in your version).

Image:Barn_grand_tetons_rgb_alternative.jpg Here I used the color complements to represent 0, while you opted for black representing 0. I was hoping it would add a level of contrast.

Well, I am no artist so I leave it to you to decide if either image is more clear. No hard feelings if you decide yours should stay. (3ucky(3all 05:00, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again Mike. Your points are well taken. I was viewing the page in a measly 1024x768 at the time =D. If you would prefer the components to be visible w/o scrolling, this can be achieved easily enough:
I also understand about keeping the math to the point. So far as showing the generator code is concerned, Delphi code does tend to be a little more long-winded than Mat-Lab code. The code for this program is 183 lines, although only about 10 of those are the program guts. I could probably upload a zipped executable & source code, but I am not entirely certain how to do so without a workaround (I uploaded File:(remove .ogg extension) HSVRGB.rar.ogg if you would like to try out the executable, but it doesn't have much substance beyond entertainment value).
I will certainly have a look at YCbCr - I find color spaces are fascinating.
My version of YCbCr components follows. I used a similar scale as on the RGB components. Your version uses Teal-Rose / Olive-Pale Blue scale while mine uses a Cyan-Red / Yellow-Blue scale. I think it may be a matter of preference, but the murkiness goes away on my scale (which may make it unrealistic). FYI, see the scale comparison.
Image:YCbCrout.jpg
Image:Scale Comparison.PNG
Hi once again. You might be interested in the images I uploaded to CMYK color model and YIQ. I also have one final suggestion to you: for the YCbCr components, you may consider standardizing the Y component to 0 (as opposed to 128) for the Cb and Cr outputs. Doing so would generate an image like the one on the right, which seems to follow more closely with the intention of all of these illustrations (to get rid of the background and focus in on one component at a time). Thanks for collaborating with me; I now have a delphi library with conversion routines for all 7 of the color spaces we have discussed. Regards, (3ucky(3all 05:43, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Webcam Dir

[edit]

Hi Mike. I'm the person who was working on the collaborative webcam directory for WeatherBonk. It's a personal project that allows users to add and modify and geocode webcams and is now well over 8000 cams. I spent sometime looking for a comprehensive cam directory and couldn't find anything nearly as comprehensive or useful. I thought this would be a very useful resource for people and didn't seem to violate wikipedia standards. Thanks david (weathermaps at gmail)

Could you only then tell me how you replaced the microphone that way?

http://videosystems.com/mag/511VS_s.review-Canon.jpg -->>>

I don't have the camera handy right now, but I'd imagine it could be (1) Just replacing the wind muffler on the standard microphone; (2) Replacing the standard microphone with a different one using the same connector (it looks removable); (3) replacing the standard microphone with one connecting to Canon's "Advanced Accessory Shoe"; (4) Connected via XLR; or (5) Connected through XLR to the Canon MA300 Microphone Adapter, which is then connected to the "Advanced Accessory Shoe". I guess (1) or (2) are most likely, looking at the photo; I'd expect to see in the photo if it was (3), (4) or (5). Does this help? Mike1024 (t/c) 07:32, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:MATLAB screenshot showing sobel filtering of bitmap graphics.png)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:MATLAB screenshot showing sobel filtering of bitmap graphics.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 13:55, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:MATLAB screenshot showing sobel filtering of bitmap graphics.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. After Midnight 0001 02:24, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mike1024,
Thank you for uploading Image:Steadicam and operator in front of crowd.jpg!
You didn't write who the uploader is. I expected that it was you who've taken the picture so I added you name to "author=".
Please tell me on my Commons talk page if my presupposition was/is right.
Thank you --D-Kuru (talk) 18:05, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the information about the authorship
Related to your comment & changes:
1) No, I don't use a bot. I made the mistake [[:de:Mike1024|Mike1024]], because I uploaded Image:Steadi.jpg and Image:Steadycam.jpg from the german wikipedia to Commons. I just copied the text for all and I've forgotten to chenge it. On Image:Steadi.jpg I've added the :User but on Image:Steadycam.jpg, I've forgotten to add it. So thanks for remind me.
2) I made a mistake by creating a correct inter wikilink to your userpage, but I used the right template. I shouldn't use {{PD-self}} when I upload a picture, but I haven't shot it. Thats one reason why {{PD-user-en}} exists. That nobody could assume that the uploader is the author.
3) An admin on Commons told me some time before that "|other_versions=" is only if you have another version of that picture (for example a cut one or if you replace the man's face by Bush's face or something like that).
--D-Kuru (talk) 11:42, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
According to your edit

1) read the words I wrote above again 2) Again why {{PD-user-en}} and not {{PD-self}}: PD-self say "I, the copyright holder of this work, hereby release it into the public domain. This applies worldwide." I haven't taken the image. You, Mike1024, have taken the image! "I" means (at least in the majority of cases) that uploader, but not the author. So, because I've uploaded the image, I have to use {{PD-user-en}}. If you would have uploaded the image to commons, you could/should use PD-self instead, because you've also taken it. marry christmas and a happy new year --D-Kuru (talk) 17:34, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:British coins showing milled and engraved edges.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:British coins showing milled and engraved edges.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 18:47, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
