*Specialist's* 10 Years of Flying
« on: January 20, 2006, 10:56:28 PM »
The *Specialist's* are celebrating 10 years of online flying in 2006. I would like to invite everyone to view a film clip I put together in wmv format at our squad website:

It has been a pleasure flying with all of you all of these years.
Good Hunting

Yes it is a great idea, and they get it done, simply, with Windows Movie Maker!

May the force be with you Specialists!

You are close Paul. It is made with Photo Story 3. Available as a free download from Microsoft. It is easy to use, edit, and get the timing down. The screenshots were made the hard old fashioned way: Playing an AHF and freezing it at the desired frame. Then switching to full screen and grabbing a 1024 X 768 screenshot.

Resolution isn't too bad when you use that method. It just takes patience waiting trying to line up an ideal shot. Music is an official German ww2 marching song.
