Were the old fags just memes?
Alex Burke has mostly mediocre compositions, isi is goddess of snapshit and clown of photography, junk had two good photos, d's travel photos looked like dog shit, I won't include poopco, ayya is ded, Charlie is a better isi, lain did nothing but fap to hentai and swat porkchops, Iggy..well he's Iggy, kmcdon is probably ded, bass was a living meme, nice guy though, panda is probably ded, 5x4 was alright, probably ded now, sugar is still a waste of everybody's time.

I've been on and off on this board since I think the start, at most two years after... and I don't remember anyone who's excellent.
It's usually that someone sometimes finds a style they can easily capture, and reproduce it many times, one or two pictures make a good impression on the board and the rest is whatever.
I don't have super old files (dead hdd) but I do have some from 6 or so years ago.
I remember this dude being alright, I'm posting him and not one of his better ones because 1. I don't have them, 2. I don't remember his name.
This picture is back from when we had that postcard fun, the guy who sent them was alright too, and some of the people who took part I would say the same.
We also had that guy who gave photoshop lessons and I think his site is still up.
I have some pictures from some other guys back from the "self portrait" threads, and some pictures from others but I don't remember who is who.
Anyway, if I posted some you'd see it's basically the same shit, although we posted way too many memes and info charts in classic 4chan style (think pedobear and shit).

i miss junk
But mostly I miss this board not being a flaming shit pile.
Terrible shit from 5 years back commonly found in critique threads which were filled with red lines lel.
I guess the culture was more laid back though. Dunno what happened, instagram? even rebbit which had a sub with higher quality posts (back when /r/pictures was more than just the shit is now) turned into absolute shit and I unsubbed after a while, all the other mediocre subs also turned shit.
THAT SAID, this is amateur photography, it has always been like this, no matter when or where. If you expect more quality you have to engage directly, or irl, with a good circle of photographers... and even then you need to be very careful, tons of shit out there in contemporary galleries, exhibitions and so on.

Literally learned from this post that DR goes higher than 100% in my X70.
It was set to 100% already and since I had no reason to set it lower I never opened it in the menu. It goes all the way to 400!
Thanks for making the thread that taught me something new about my camera, OP. Of all the retarded namedropping trolls here lately you're the least worst.
Lain wasn't a swatter, by the way. He was an asshole but he was an honest one at least. If he didn't like someone he told them instead of going behind their back. I can respect that.
>>2979854

>>2979858
"things I don't know anything about -the post"
>>2979856
I don't care about terms at all. I just hadn't realised until now that it went over 100%
I'm looking forward to playing around with it at 400% tomorrow.
I've been shooting at ISO 3200 a lot recently because the weather's so awful, so being able to turn up the DR a bit more sounds great.
>>2979858
Well, he never swatted me anyway. Maybe he hurt your feefees and I never heard about it.
Like I said, though; Lain at least had the balls to say it to your face when he didn't like you.
Is 4x5 NZ guy still here?
>>2979856
>DR800 is insta HDR.
no its not you fucking retard
and its DR400, not DR800
DR400, iso 800 means an iso 200 raw file is taken by the camera (this is to preserve highlights) and then the shadows are pushed up two stops selectively to maximize dynamic range.
This is HDR insofar as its a higher level of dynamic range than an iso 200 jpeg, but its not HDR in terms of internet autists and tonemapping.
It's literally just an automated, jpeg version of "expose for the highlights and lift your shadows to taste"
>>2979886
I don't think you know what tonemapping is.
>>2979891
I don't think you have a response to my explanation of what DR400 actually does so you're latching onto a buzzword that you saw in my post but failed to understand the lack of importance of.

>>2979900
Your explanation is literally "tone mapping".

is full of that stuff. and the OP said it was all product of an afternoon walk. you are praising a meme. oldfags were mediocre and ok at best, board vibe was more friendly, but no way those guys were great as you all want to believe (except alphon). current /p/ photos and narrative awareness are way superior.
old /p/ was full of faggots wanting to be wedding photogs and model photogs and they lived waiting for the latest pp tip by 5hoe or new Photoshopr sharpening tutorial. it was a board of plebs, and you know its true.

You're talking out of your ass buddy, there may be more shitposting on current /p/ but there's no real animosity anymore. If there's one major difference its that back then there were enough outspoken posters with their own recognizable work/identity so that feuds could develop and people could actually hate each other or think that other people were idiots. Now it's just effortless anonymous shi-ttalking that doesn't stick or mean anything.

I'd wager most of the board has made money off of a photo at least once. Especially in their teens and early 20s. It's because people think you're a kid and like engaging your roleplay. Tea time from empty tea cups.

I actually do say that. I'm not homophobic. I'm also not islamaphobic, no one ever says you are jewphoibic. It's Antisemitism. Just like anti theists are not theismphobic.

>>2985094
>Words have meanings
Yes, they do, and word meanings are not the same as etymological word history.
Etymologically, homophobic doesn't even refer specifically to sexuality, homo just means a repulsion to the "same", which means that all straight people are etymologically homophobic, per your own focus on etymology over accepted meaning.
Of course you're probably too stupid to realize how badly I just fucked your world up, etymologically.

I can still respect alex purely due to his lack of tripfagging. tripfags in general (with very minimal exception) are cancerous to the entire site and generally should just off themselves as it implies they're attention whores irl and on the web.
