The MGC Chatbox Evo is really easy to use

You can :
  1. Send chats : you just have to enter the text in the dedicated input field and then to validate it by pushing the return key ou by clicking on the OK button.
  2. Format the chats :
  3. once you un-collapse the chatbox formatting toolbar by clicking on the BBCode button, you have access to different formatting options for your chats. You can format a chat by selecting a part (or the totality) of it and then select one of the buttons/list. You can also add empty formatting tags by selecting nothing and clicking one of the buttons/menu thus allowing you to add the chat text afterwards between these tags.*
  4. Access to the different channels : you can have access to different channels restricted to only some usergroupds or for specifics use of the chatbox. The different channels are accessible from the buttons on the left of the chatbox.*
  5. Edit your chats (or others chats) : the edition of a chat can be done by a simple double-click on it.*
  6. Use specific commands : some commands can be accessible in the chatbox depending on the will of the administrator(s) of your forum. These commands let you execute specific actions of formatting, management, etc... You will herebelow the information on the command which are accessible to you. You must notice that you are not forced to use the command prefixes (/command_name) when you use them in the channel they are attached to (except in the general channel).*
* : Depending on the settings chosen by the administrator(s) of the forum, you might not have access to all these features.

    lmao....

    In English:

    My telescope is made by Celestron and is an 11" aperture on a high end tracking mount (its huuuge)
    Took it with my Canon attached to the telescope where the lens would normally go
    The exposure was 1/125th of a second and the ISO 100 means the light gathering setting was low (your point and shoot is normally 400-800)
    I took 5 seperate partial images and stitched them togetherl ike a panorama picture in Photoshop.

    I dunno how long it takes you to do your stitching, but you might wanna take a look at The Panorama Factory. It's pretty amazing.

    Dude...PS CS does it in like 5-7 seconds. It's pretty much cheating. I was expecting to to do it manually.

    Yeah, Panorama Factory will do that as well with default settings. It'll also create Quicktime VRs and two dimensional stitching. So you could shoot 16 pics of the moon (4x4) and stitch that if you wanna go really big...

    Nice pic either way.

    Here's one I shot out of my hotel window on a trip to Singapore a couple years back - 4 shots across, default settings. Had to compress the crap out of it to make it fit the upload spec, tho'...

    I've never been able to use Photoshop while driving...


    Like the 2nd one. I might have cropped it differently, though, but that's part of the fun and interest pf photography.

    All right smart Arse, I cropped them after I got home, at my desk while drinking a cold beverage.

    While driving threw Vermont and New Hampshire I stopped along side the road when I saw a great photo opportunity to take some panoramic photos.

    Are we clear now
