Ideal for the QL too. The image format is JPEG.

Urs does indeed have a Mavica.

Have you got one of Steve Reyal? I have one at the Manchester show,
but he's on the edge of a picture of someone else and it's too dark
really. Could do with a "this is the guy who did the QL DVD" one.

My pigging scanner's been playing up. It was making a horrendous noize
and seizing up. Eventually opened up the case (boy that was fun!!!
talk about kiddie proof, scanner cases are nuclear bomb proof!) and
found that the runners were so dry it couldn't run and had broken a
tooth on a plastic cog. So I smeared the runners with vaseline, forced
it up and down the tracks by hand a few times to lubricate and it
seems to work now for about 3/4 of a page until it gets to the broken
tooth, OK for photos and part page scans. Save my Launchpad pennies
for a new scanner, or wait until Tarquin gets his running and buy one
of those.

Hi Dilwyn,

Love the Rogues Gallery!!

That picture you got of Urs Konig was taken by me - its outside the White
House in Washington DC,  during the QL show visit last year. Steve Reyal
myself and Urs spent the day sightseeing together after the show. Steve and
I went on to New York, and Urs went up to Niagra Falls I think I recall
taking the picture as is was taken using Urs Digital camera, which was
quite unique in that it took 3.5" floppies - yes, floppies in the camera
not Sd or compact flash cards, The camera had a floppy drive inside it.
Great idea as you could view the JPG's on the QL using photon from the
floppy, but a pain in that Urs had to haul about a box of floppies as the
camera kept running out of storage space!!

BTW, I dare you to put up the one of me with the sheep on my
shoulder.   :-)))

Oh yes, I forgot about PNGs, yes I could use them too.

As for scanning Freddy's picture...he probably did as much damage to
my scanner
as to my phone bill when we talked years ago in DP/DJC days ;-)) (Only
joking of course)

The real reason for the failure of my scanner (you can tell I was up
half the night with this, about the only time round here when my
nuisance DIY neighbour isn't banging hammering and drilling something
and I can actually *CONCENTRATE*) was the fact that the arms on which
the scanner head moves had gone dry and dirty, so the gear mechanism
(little plastic cogs and a belt like a caterpiller track) were
slipping. Stole some of my wife's Vaseline (she uses it for dry lips
in case anyone asks) and gently cleaned and lubricated the tracks and
it's now able to scan about 2/3 of an A4 page until it gets to the
part of one cog where a tooth has broken off then the scan head stops
or slips out of sync.

Look out guys...found some more pics. And after judicious application
of Tony Tebby's chemistry set, came up with an alternative picture of
him...patience!

Err, I think I'll remove the picture before Tony starts sending me
some of his "chemistry lessons."

Alternatively, he could email me a *decent* photo which would also
have the effect of making me remove the "boy scout" picture as one

I have to stand up for my mis-spent schooldays.

How about banger contents in a sparklets bulbs (the large commercial
size bulb), two wires with wire wool between sealed on with araldite.  I
put this behind a wall and moved the other side to set it off with a
battery.  The wall fell down!

I have not been active in terrorist circles since then (8-)#

The pictures I thought would create some replies were:

Al Boehm: Errr, wrong type of keyboard for SuperHermes, Al!

Enrico: Well done Roy, exactly what I thought (not sure, I think that
picture came either from his website or was taken originally when he
attended one of Roy's workshops at the Excelsior hotel in Brighton.

Bill Newell: not sure if he was awake when picture was taken.

Joachim: probably the worst picture of the lot (well, it was the only
one I could find)

Roy Wood: that shirt!

Tony Tebby: Was sure I'd get sued for that one!

Marcel: wonder how old that picture is!

Ron Dunnett: Or was that a picture of an east-end gangster?

Who's missing that I wanted to include? Thierry, Wolfgang, Freddy
Vachha (was sure surprised I couldn't find a picture of him...there's
been one or two in QL World but I couldn't find 'em), Davide of Ergon,
Richard Zidlicky, Daniele Terdina...I'm sure you could name many
more!!!

At least I had fun preparing the page and I'm sure you had fun reading
it too. Before anyone thinks of revenge, it's my revenge for the
Embarrass The Editor page in QL Toady a few years ago.

Re: [ql-users] Rogue page

The honest answer is that some of them are clipped from larger
pictures and I don't have the originals in many cases, so they
probably don't exist, or are in the hands of publishers when I used to
send the photos in to editors before I got a scanner.

Anyway, I think this is enough damage in one go!

Since it sneaked through, he was talking about:

Several questions spring to mind about this.

Why has Dave Walker got two white beams coming out of his nose ?

When did Damian Hirst pickle Enrico Tedeschi's head ?

Why is Lau Reeves lying in bed ? and is he being interrogated by Tony 
Firshman ?

When did  Tony Tebby become a boy scout ?

and finally when did Marcel ever look so clean cut ?

Answers on a postcard please.

I have a couple of answers for you Roy ;-) (And a Question)

There's no two white beams coming out of Dave Walker's nose. You are 
apparently referring to his aura emanating from his third eye. It is 
apparent that all decent luminaries have ESP abilities ;-). AFAIK Dilwyn's 
ECTOQLCAMERA (Short for Ectoplasm Quantum image manipuLator Camera) is not 
that advanced (it still runs on DOS that's why :-D ).

Lau Reeves is not in bed. I have it on good authority (from the grapevine 
of course) that this was from a clip of the (unreleased as of yet) 
masterpiece of Franco Jeffireli's "The Saint of Minerva: His Life and 
Times".

What I really would like to know is:

a. What the heck am I doing in there? (Especially without my transparency 
set ;-) hehe and ...
b. Why are you wearing a Ziggy Stardust outfit? :-D

(There said it ;-)

Phoebus (all in good fun of course)

How about links on the photo to a hi-res image?
