Small problem and a question
Jan. 16th, 2011 08:10 pmI have a small stye or zit or something at the corner of my eye that's causing some irritation, so I'm giving it the warm washcloth treatment - though not right at the moment, because this keyboard requires two hands - and since it's my left eye, this really limits what I can do. No reading, or anything else that requires me to see details. I suppose I could watch something, if I didn't care too much about tracking the screen. I might have to stick to podcasts.
Which brings me to my question, for those who wear glasses or other corrective lenses.
TV usually depicts poor sight by unfocusing the camera, but I've never thought that looked right. For me, it's more like ... closest analogy I can come up with is trying to look through static. The details are there, I can tell they're there, but unless I stare right at them they tend to be intermittently obscured. And small things like letters don't stay put. So my question is: how is uncorrected vision for anyone else? Is the "blurry camera" depiction accurate, close, way off? Are my eyes (eye) just weird?
Sub-question: do your glasses actually give you clear vision? (Mine never have.)

Dec. 18th, 2010 09:35 amAaaaarrgh people! No matter what size your image is while you're working on it, on the Web it will display at 72 dpi! This means that the nice 8"x11" scan you have? If you keep it at 300 dpi, it will display at over 2000 pixels. And just so you know, that's a wee bit big for most monitors.
Why is this such a hard concept for some people?

Summary: "Look. Al doesn't lose his temper over just anything. You've probably realized that. But when he does get mad, it's a good idea for the rest of us to take notice, because it usually means there's something big going on. You get me?"
( Blowing up at people for no reason is supposed to be my thing, Al. )

Dec. 10th, 2010 05:57 pmMom's going to a coworker's wedding this evening, and she had to borrow clothes from me because all of hers are too big XD. It was still a bit of a challenge to find some that a)were nice enough, b)went together, and c)looked all right given the differences in our figures and ages.
She still can't quite get over the fact that she fits into my clothes now.
