Faking High Dynamic Range (HDR) Images – Video

Interesting video by, Adobe’s Russel Brown, on faking HDR imaging when you only have a single RAW pic to work from http://av.adobe.com/russellbrown/FauxHDR_SM.mov

The photo itself is a bit over-tweaked for my taste, but the concept is great.

page not loading waiting for gg.google.com

(skip to THE ANSWER if you don’t want to read the back story)

Um, so, a short post here. I kept running into this problem where a site of mine was stuck on a white page whith the little “page loading” spinner going for minutes on end and nothing happening.

That’s easy, “it’s PHP loop” you might say, but no. I talked to my web host, did a tracert request, and they said it was something to do with xo’s servers dropping pakets, but they were working to fix the problem. I smiled an nodded, and left for lunch. Came back, and things were still a no go.

Then I noticed the key to the problem. bottom of the browser was stuck “waiting for gg.google.com” after a few web searches I found my answer.

THE ANSWER

The freeze is a conflict with the web developer FireFox plugin called “Fire Bug”.  Disable the “Scripting” panel, and things should work fine.

Thanks to Brian Pedersen and his site where I found the answer: http://briancaos.wordpress.com/2009/07/01/waiting-for-gg-google-com/
