I have a number of suggestions to play around with and interestingly resizing seems to be a common theme.<br /><br />I will make the rules available once I have ironed out a few wrinkles but thus far they seem to hit the spot.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-23007321594480409662013-03-17T00:02:25.664+00:002013-03-17T00:02:25.664+00:00I don't use flash for any of my photos.

I rarely provide any other adjustments to them. Sometimes, for arty shots, I use my real camera, but not often; the phone is a much more convenient tool to have on the game table.<br /><br />I shall have to look up your naval rule variants, though - they sound interestingKaptain Koboldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17082772546044655044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-26005876471817484182013-03-16T21:19:08.035+00:002013-03-16T21:19:08.035+00:00Hi Phil,

I am well satisfied with my decision to go down the 1:2400 model route and am looking forward to getting the battleships on the table.<br /><br />I will experiment with the ideas you have suggested for my photos as I have a funny feeling that the continuing struggles between Fezia and Rusland will need to be recorded for posterity!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DC David Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-65467116521099173922013-03-16T20:03:39.797+00:002013-03-16T20:03:39.797+00:00David,

The models are stunning, the scenario makes sense in terms of the existing backstory, and the rules work very well indeed. It reads as if you enjoyed this battle no end.<br /><br />Interestingly I never use flash when taking photos for my blog. I switch it off to avoid glare from the flash. I also switch on the anti-shake option (it helps with close shots and low-light shots). I also tend to take photos from four to five feet away and then crop them using Windows Picture Manager. (I also use the latter to resize photos down to 1000 to 1500 pixels wide; these are large enough to be used on my blog and can be stored on Picasa ... and they are smaller than the limit set by Picasa to count towards your storage limit.)<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.com
