Tips and Tricks / want a gui screenshot program
« on: March 30, 2022, 02:18:03 PM »
With scrot now command line and/or multi key combo to work.. there is a much easier way to work with screen capture now.


It's gnome screenshot and it is a GUI :)


open terminal
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gnome-screenshot

General Discussion / Re: A sampling of my photo art

Many thanks smhardesty :)


That was one of my first ever attempts at high speed shutter photography to freeze the waves and yea.. still need practice but I was pleased with the first batch there lol
Taken on a horrid day with Storm Eunice passing overhead.. As i was taking this photo.. we had sustained ground level wind speeds of 62mph / 100kmh with gusts at 91mph / 146kmh live recorded. I was part sheltered but still getting slammed by the wind and that photo was with a light Sony A6400 mirrorless camera and the Tamron 70-300mm f4.5-6.3 di iii rxd at full 300mm zoom (11.5inch fully extended) and i was handheld.. I didnt have my tripod or anything with me and neither the lens or the camera have stabilisation built in lmao..

profile folder.. that was a tough one to find.. i "think" i may have found it.. home folder, up, up, should be in /  .... then i went to tmp. there was viper stuff there.. but i am not sure if that is all there is... please let me know if you find other places!! I would like to know this one too lmao

so... in linux .. ctrl + alt + del to open task manager..
You will see Viper's app image sat there at 2.6MB


vipers usage should be the QtWebEngineProcess lines...


This was on my pc.. 1 core of a Ryzen 7 3700X 4.2ghz and about 8gb 3200MHZ DDR4 ram, give or take, on a vm box. only viper open.. running speedtest

Stunning... simply put!


That is a beautiful set of photos and post edit work :)  Me, personally... I go a lot more simplistic.. direct from camera.. I will take a 100 shots.. and pick the 1 single one that was right for me.. rather than a couple, touch up in post and then post lol


Like this one.. crop sensor camera.. Sony A6400, which is a 24.2MP mid range mirrorless. Lens on this was the Sigma 56mm F1.4 DC DN (aps-c lens). Shot handheld, no support, no OSS, no IBIS or other steady aids. Photo was shot f/1.4, ISO-100 and a 1/4000s shutter. Sun was at 7 o clock to my standing position and around 30mins before sunset. No post editing, clean up or anything has been done here.

One of the main differences here is that Viper is an executable appimage browser.. it does not install like firefox, chrome, falkon etc.. so outside of a few random folders it keeps your pc clean :)

you're welcome smhardesty :)


I wasnt sure if you had got it or not hence why i did the video installation for you and just went through a few settings to show it.


The other browser i use is Falkon .. its kde so expect it to come in at around 200mb install... falkon itself is only 3mb.


If you are interested..


Code: [Select]
open terminal
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y falkon
Now this one takes a bit of getting used to on the setting up.. but it's a nice quick light browser.


If you want any further help with anything... let us know and i may do a video walkthrough to help, cause i like doing that stuff lmao

Thank-you Leenie :) You already know the spoiler alert relating to that screenshot anyway.. I just wanted to actually show a demo version running.


Many thanks smhardesty :) I am an Amateur photographer so have been working with my images to incorporate when into my Beta to see what a different angle on wallpaper / themes look like.. I am still tweaking things .. but my custom moon-theme is coming along.. as well as some others i am playing with :)


Another spoiler alert there!!!

In terms of browser now on my linux .. i use Viper...


It's an executable browser.. it doesnt actually install to the hard drive lol.. its a really weird one to work with but i love it.


if you want to try it on ubuntu .. let me get the instructions


go to https://g.srev.in/get-appimage/viper_browser/


click on the lightning symbol next to the 134.87MB release..


once downloaded.. open terminal


cd Downloads


chmod +x ./*.AppImage


close out terminal


open downloads .. double click viper and set up and play :)


enjoy
