Henry, trust me when I say: keep shooting in RAW. Delete old pictures that you don't like if you have to, or go buy some more memory (pretty cheap these days). RAW allows you to have much more control over the pictures than JPEG.

What are you using to re-size the pictures, or just edit them in general?

Also, one of the reasons [I think] your pictures come out grainy is because you're having to bump up the ISO since you don't have a tripod [yet, right? ].

True, but for meets, I don't plan on doing any editing unless someone requests some higher quality pics

My ISO was 800 for most of the shots. They don't look grainy on the originals. Im sure its because of the resize/compression I did.

^Yea compress will make differences too. If you upload images to host at places like imageshack or photobucket, their server automatically compress them again.

Andrei, the G's looking good. Drop + OEM 19s + spacers ftw.

Is that Hector? Did he change his license plate?

Props to the man who is rocking Sin3's old rims.




I AM. Will you be there, John?
Who else will be there besides Shane?
Thanks!

there gonna meet up at hyperlite's house at around 2:30-3PM then caravan to HIN. Try to get in contact with BIG Vin. He's going so you have someone to go with to the meeting place

We'll be at HIN at around 1pm to help clean up and finish w/ the sponsor stickers

You'd have to be doing about 90 mph on the freeway to get from La Canada to Arcadia, maybe a little more. Doing 80 mph I get to Glendale in 20 minutes from Arcadia.

I work in Glendale so the meet works fine for me, just the driving home part sucks.
