Project logs / Re: Dithered images on silk layer
[quote author="matseng"]
Do you think it will turn out as nice as in the screenshot or will it just be a messy blur of f*cked up pixels?
[/quote]

Few months ago, I tried same thing on one of my PCB. I added a bitmap image in the back-silk layer. Below is the result (seeed).

General discussion / Re: How free are Microchips "free" samples?
Microchip charges processing fee of US$8.50 (if I remember correctly) for sample orders. I didn't had any credit card one year ago and was really in need of a 2550, so I wrote to them and they did sent me free samples including shipping. For my country (India) it came by FedEx to local microchip sales office and they couriered it to me by a domestic courier.

Many (probably every) manufacturers have sample option where you have to fillup a form or similar,stating your target use plan etc details. But a student doesn't have business plan most of the times and it will come handy to just write a nice email to them.

I have received Atmel samples too by writing to them that I am a student and don't have any commercial aspect of my undergoing project whose details I gave them, asking for sample Atmegas..

Only one thing is that, don't be greedy. If they approved your samples order, don't try to pick what you like (for future use) and don't need for your next samples order. When you have project plan ready, you should apply for samples.


Cheers

General discussion / Re: Site BUG: DangerousPrototypes logo missng !
I am seeing the same problem everywhere (forum, blog, wiki). The docs looking even worse.
I just browsed all the problematic pages with free proxies (U.S.) and surprisingly everything was normal.
I thought any recent DNS or CDN/Cache changes might have created confusions with my ISP's DNS so the logo file is not found, then I changed my connection's DNS server to OpenDNS but still seeing those horrible pages.

Project logs / Re: Rotating Digital Picture Frame
When I saw the thread title, I thought you were taking about rotating display dimensions to fit picture, which is normally done. But after reading the thread and seeing images, I find that you're actually rotating the frame itself. Nice work. +1

General discussion / Re: 178.63.63.84
Few months ago, there was few days time when my ISP's DNS server stopped working, and I was relying on the cached DNS in my system to open sites via IP addresses, that IP address was stored in my notepad. The problem lasted untill I switched over openDNS.

General discussion / 178.63.63.84
I am just curious why the webaddress http://178.63.63.84/ contains a old cache of DP. I am seeing 23'rd January's post there.
Is this something like mirror backup server for DP,  but not being used in last 6 months?
