Nice! This tutorial describes how to convert a “normally shot” photograph into an infra-red photo. It uses Photoshop, but the techniques described can be done in the GIMP too! Here’s a few more bits too.
While we’re on the subject, here are the top 10 signs you spend too much time at STF! hehe.

Via delicious this morning I have two titbits for your consumption!
Movable Type Ported to PHP – Apparently they’ve done what appears to be a nearly complete port of MT from Perl (bless it) to PHP. This port appears to include support for all current MT tags, it relies on Justin Vincent’s ezSQL DB library and Smarty templates, and even supports a plug-in API.
Why PHP still stinks – from a Perl coder’s perspective. 😉

GIMP Intelligent Background Eraser
Here’s a plugin for the GIMP that you can use to erase the background.. a Windows .exe is included, and source but not a Makefile. My interest doesn’t extend to writing one unfortunately!
Gimp plugin for “intelligent Erasor”
replace the selection with an interpollated background. If the border along the selection is relatively continuous, i.e. a pretty boring background, then this tool works as an erasor.

Oh wow! What a great day! The organisers say there was well over 7,000 entrants this year, 1,000 over last year’s race! Bishop Buckley was in attendance, as were lots of charities and societies.
Well done Louise on doing the race too!
A great day was had by all and I’ll be back next year to cover it again!
