I know it has to really be upsetting for the people who had the live feeds and lost them because RealOne has no idea how to run a business, I have heard of alot of people that still aren't up and running, luckily for me I was up within 15 of going down the last time. I would post pictures here but I haven't figured out how to do it on this board, but with all the great live updaters you have here I'm sure someone will post some great pictures for everyone to view. I also will watch, not for the concert, but to see the initial reaction of the hgs when they see what is in store for them for the evening.

Jagger, have you tried Alt Print Scrn? then pasting into whatever graphic program you have? The TRICK is to make the feed you have up less than 100% (I go for 99%). Do that by ever so slightly resizing the window. (Look in the technical topic for more info if this is not enough, since this thread isn't for that) Good Luck.

Hey Ryn or any other Mods. Could you start a discussion for screen caps of the concert? This way we without the live feeds could see them, but they wont be in the LFP's to chew up bandwidth. Just a thought.

Won't they have to have sound checks for the equipment?

Geez, I won't be home until around 9:00 BB time and I'm sure the concert will be over by then. DRAT!

So who here thinks Cheryl will ring the doorbell to get into the house? Or will she just be introduced on stage as the houseguests go out to the backyard.

Lets hope that in the future they will allow these HG's to sing Cheryl's songs and not give us FOTH!!!

Just an FYI for y'all...just talked to Real (about my subscription stuff..and billing), and at the end of the convo asked if they were getting a lot of people signing up to see the concert tonight. He said they were getting TONS. I mentioned that I hoped they were going to be able to handle the volume. The very nice man (and he was very nice) said, well, he's off work in 20 minutes, but he's sure he'll hear about it tomorrow.

Just want to wish everyone luck getting in tonight, and I really hope we can all see it!

I've got one of her songs stuck in my head the last few days. I'm gonna soak up some sun. Gonna tell everyone to lighten up. I've got no to blame, when I feel lame, I'm lookin' up.....

I was not a fan -- but I really, really like this song -- think the house guest will get the message?

does roddy believe enough in his own charm, powers of persuasion and new found celebrity to make a play for cheryl crow?

will amy sing along?

these and many other questions to be answered in just a few hours

Just a tip on screen caps:

If you do the quad cam and get a screen cap then compress it, the image is about 3kb for one square.

This is a friendlier way to post screen caps.
In any case, it's always best to compress or optimize your screen caps down.
Original size is around 20kb, compressed it's about 9kb on the larger pic's.
Always use the JPG format, as it compresses the pic more than a gif file.

You can also email your caps to Ryn and he posts them in the pic section. But he usually does his own captures.

It was great coincidental timing Fly :-)

...the the capture I have on the quad cam (small like yours) is 14 KB and the one I posted was 16. Tho I did edit the smaller one a bit, to take out the fuzzies and such.

I did this one for the detail... but can compress it more in Graphics program (where I can set compression rate, tho I didn't reset it higher for this one. I will and see how much smaller I can get it.) I see there is a sugesstion for a topic for the Concert Caps...might be a good Idea. Mods can take of doubles or too big files, etc.

Krossd, my small files are about 3kb AFTER compression.
My bigger files are around 16kb after compression.
A lot of folks don't know about compressing their files before posting them,(at about 20kb+) just thought I'd mention it here before the concert thing starts.

Also Ryn asks for us to keep it to a minimum posting screen caps in the LFP area due to refreshing of that area so often.

Just some tips for those who don't know!

You get great quality BTW, good pics!

Suggestion: We could post our pic's in the Caption contest area because it's already set up into folders.

We could create a folder there for CONCERT PIC's and everyone could post in the same folder there??

RYN, MOD's? any suggestions?
)I also asked Ryn over on the LFP area for suggestion on where to post, and told him to let us know if he could)

I don't know Webkitty, I'm going to watch and see if the mods have a place for pics, if they don't I'll get some and post them in the Caption contest area.

Dlurk, I also heard that, weird.
Watching the feed and haven't hear them saying anything about knowing about the concert.
They were running thru songs and artist, just working there way down a list of sorts.
I still don't think they know...but I may be wrong.

I thought maybe the DR was giving them subtle hints, with the conversation lately too bad it wasn't Christina!!

I can't find the caption contest area for some reason

I am going to just hang out here. If pics are posted along with the posts of what is going on, than great. Thanks to all who contribute
