Discussing My tutorial on making Planets! in Create Your Own Planets roborovski hamsters says: A 'Wee Planet' is a stereographical projection made out of a 360 X 180 panoramic photo. Basically, just take a load of photos, stitch them together and turn it into a circle. This is how my first one turned out, of my street - And here's a later one of the De La Warr Pavilion, south east England whilst I was on holiday: Planets were started by a French photographer, take a look at his photostream here. 1) Go outside, onto a street and take photos of all around you, remember, 360 degrees around you and 180 degrees above and below you (a low megapixel count is fine and probably better as it will reduce the final image size and reduce the amount of time it takes to stitch). 2) Now, upload the photos to your computer. 3) Creating the panorama. Then, select the photos -img189.imageshack.us/img189/8669/select.png Then click 'Make' and 'Create panoramic photo'.img195.imageshack.us/img195/3558/panorama.png img199.imageshack.us/img199/5639/stitch.png Hopefully it worked ok!

Philosophy Bro Windows Vista User Guide: Sticky Notes, Screenshots, Preview, Help, Aero, Sidebar, Microsoft, XP, Server, Linux, Mac Sticky Notes You can use the sticky notes program to quickly write a note or save a voice memo. You do not have to manually save each item as it will be saved automatically. Therefore if you want to get rid off a note that you have made, you need to delete it. Sticky notes is very useful for tablet pc users or users with a touchscreen pc. This is what the sticky notes program looks like when you first run it. Once you have written a note or a diagram such as in the screenshot above, the New Note button will be active, click that and you will see the number at the top of the screen increase by 1, so 1/1 will become 2/2 and so on. You can drag and drop a note onto another application or the desktop by clicking the button next to 1/1 and whilst the button is clicked, dragging the mouse over to the application or the desktop, then letting go of the mouse. As can be seen above, you can record the voice note by going through the menu system or even by pressing the hotkey (Ctrl+R).

In fact you may be thoroughly sceptical and dismiss the whole thing as silly nonsense. But I can tell you from personal experience that lucid dreams are very real and something that many millions of people regularly enjoy. Note: Due to the huge amount of interest that this post has generated I am now seriously considering writing a book on the subject, and I would welcome input from anyone with an interest. If you have any anecdotes, suggestions, dreams or anything else you’d like to share with me for possible inclusion in the book, please email me. These types of dreams are hyper-real in that when you experience one it is bursting with vibrant colour, there’s often marvellous music playing in the background (if you listen for it), the air is the freshest and sweetest you’ve ever smelled, and you are the healthiest you have ever been (or could ever be).
