Dual Role

Triple A … In a Rare Photo
Eversince my childhood, I loved watching movies. Its like living a dream and it's a wild fantasy.
With the advent of technology, We the humans, were able to achieve a new dimension in Movies and "Dual role" is one common tweak in movies.
Usually , Its One person playing two Characters in a film like twins, Father & Son etc and often (Esp. In Indian Movies), there would be some imperfection in screen when these two characters come together in the screen.

Its really surprising to see two identical characters together. Just imagine how it would be if I was standing in front of you as two Aruns. Happy .. Right...So.. lets go to action.

Lets assume that the twins were discussing about how to play dual role. The following simple bold two points explains how three aruns come to live in the above photo.. Just Visualize it..It is simple...

1) Take two (or more) photos with camera in same position while object(u) in different places

Though there were many ways, This method reduces complexity in image editing and a quick note: To add more life to the image, just stare at other position.

2) Now you have got two photos. Just cut the object half of a photo and paste it over the empty space(non object space) in another photo.

Here, I recommend the usage of good photo editing software. Because the normal cut and paste results in a sharp edges. The good photo editing softwares like GIMP, Photoshop etc, provides option for cutting a picture in Feather mode. There by, sharp edges fades out and so, the image appears to be real. (Really?)

Hope this blogs would be easy to understand... and if you really find this blog useful, don't forget to send me your dual role photo.

So you want some more reference right... just explorehttp://www.gimp.org/

Lost Name

When ever filling an online form or an application, I used to stuck at last/sur name . Is it Pandian(my third name) or Annamalai(My Father's Name)? . After a moment of doubt, I would write one of the two and click submit. After all, its my name. But the question of last name was always a doubt. Finally, today, i searched for last name in wikipedia. Its a very big explanation. I keep on reading and reading, reading for a while. Obviously, Last Name is used as additional identifier for a person. In various part of the world, the last name is used for different purpose. In Tamil Nadu & kerala, Nowadays, Father's Name was used as last name while some hundred years back, caste or clan or place name were served as second name. Credit goes to Periyar. but all in vain. It was happened to me to watch periyar movie, last week. As per school knowledge, I remember Periyar as a freedom fighter. But after watching the movie, I realised that he was more or completely devoted himself to ...

Tray It

Tray it - Its a one of the tool, i was searching for a long time, finally got it over the last week. Its a free windows tool using which we can mimimize any windows application to system tray. Normally when I click the minimize button of an application, say for example Eclipse or Toad, it gets minimized to task bar. As I wont be actively using the application, over the time, my taskbar would be loaded with more than ten application. To overcome this issue, If I close the app, instead of minimizing, the next time when I open the app, It will be waste of time (Java based GUIs). So I want the application minimized to system tray instead of task bar, there by minimizing the clutter in task bar. Exactly this is what is done by this application. So Now on, Just press the Shift key when clicking the minimize button, the app will be minimized to system tray.(you have to download and run it) Note:- Also, using this you can play hide and seek on the app when somebody(boss) around your comput...
