11 Feb 2011 Photo Fantasies

Today’s composition uses a photo taken of a Kansas State  hot air balloon taking off, and mixes the image with a golden sky to complete the fantasy flight image.  Adding a double matted and complimentary color combination in the outer photo mattes, this picture becomes a nice whimsical addition to a digital picture frame display sequence.  Once I got started working with digital matting designs, my pictures seem naked without them.  What can we do for you today?

06 Jan 2011 Calendar Designs – “The Works”

 

In this post, I am showing a calendar creation which includes “the works” of what we can do with your matted photo images.  This calendar set would provide 12 months worth of calendar images which combine in a playback sequence like the one shown below.  Each month would have its own uniquely matted photo, calendar images that let you mark the passing of days in the month through a cursor highlight and playback selection, a listing of monthly events, and even a quote for the month if you desire.  I am offering this design for $51.00 to receive the full set of over 365 images.  A perpetual calendar for this particular design is not available due to the number of images that would need to be created.  Nobody else offers this kind of value, so hurry and get yours now!

29 Sep 2010 Invitation To Photo Frame Manufacturers

Over the course of our posting digital photo frame content, we have received a number of communications from photo frame manufacturers asking us to offer digital photo frame hardware on our site.  Presumably, this interest has come as a result of these companies recognizing the value of our products in increasing their sales of hardware. 

Since our focus continues to be in offering excellent content to owners and customers of digital picture frames, we are taking this opportunity to invite manufacturing representatives to connect with us in working to offer preloaded content from Matte Watch to help promote the sale of new photo frame units in stores.  By offering Matte Watch products to promote sales of frame hardware in a highly competitive market, manufacturers can use our content to gain an edge over competition and increase awareness of the exciting potential this unique media represents.  If you are a representative of a photo frame manufacturer who would like to open a dialog with us on the potential for factory preloading some of our unique content offerings, please send an email to olanb@bhotechnologists.com or jdir@bhotechnologists.com to discuss how we can create offerings that will set your products apart from the competition.  Thanks for visiting Matte Watch, and your interest in our product offerings.

31 Aug 2010 August 2010 – Springfield Travels

While planning an economy trip to somewhere, my wife and I struggled to decide where to go.  After looking at the nearby sights, maps, and options within our meager budget, we decided to base ourselves in Springfield, Missouri, and travel around the Springfield, Branson, and Eureka Springs areas.  Since Springfield was always a place we drove through to get to Branson, we decided to see if there was anything in Springfield worth seeing.  This series of beautiful matted photo treatments comes from that effort.  Some might conclude we are just easy to please, but I like what we brought back with us to use on this site.  The first picture is a foot bridge across the tracks in old downtown Springfield, which was going through some face lifting while we were there.

The last post in this series was contributed by a proud winner of the first bizarro ugly block award.  I am sure there are some contenders for the title on this planet, but there were none who cared to compete for the title.  If you have something ridiculous in mind, I can help.  For a worse look at this picture, click on the image.

This post explains what happens to lost articles when we forget to take good care of our things.  One man’s loss is another man’s artifact?  Many such journeys of the imagination are possible.  Since other sites do not offer to turn your photos into comedic twists, I hope to get you to part with some cash for the sake of your own sense of humor, even if you do not particularly appreciate mine.  If you think you can do better, get busy tapping out an email to me, and see where it leads.

My next post in the series demonstrates how I can take an image and create a theme around the baseline photograph, using some unexpected twists to achieve a different humorous perspective.  The whole idea is to use the combination of photo matting techniques combined with actual photos to result in something fun and new.  Since everyone likes humor, even though all humor is not a sure fired hit, having humorous material for your digital picture frame will at least be a good conversation starter for your guests.  If you need help, you can send me your photo, and I will try to work out a way to get some laughs from it.   Click on the image to see a higher resolution version of it.

Sometimes, the quest for artistic expression takes an unexpected turn, as represented by my next offering.  A person should always be willing to express themselves, even if nobody else gets it.  A good idea can come from the question, “What is that?”  To see a higher resolution version of the image, click on the picture.

05 Jul 2010 July 2010 – Multi Purpose Templates
My final posting in this series suggests a form of commemorative photo treatment, showing how a single multi purpose template can be used to create a variety of useful variations on the theme.  The flexibility of digital photo matting allows you to take the single matted photo for $3 and turn out at least $21 worth of images from that foundation.  Other such forms can also be created using the conventional matting style, compositions, or virtual plaque styling to achieve the effect and end results you desire.  Write to me with your thoughts of other designs you would like to see, and let me know how we can best serve your needs.

02 Jul 2010 July 2010 – Multi Purpose Templates

This posting illustrates how you might use a basic image template, as a foundation for adding your own thoughts to create an inspirational message plaque for your digital picture frame, computer wallpaper, or print.  Of course this approach requires beginning with an image that provides you with a canvas for having something inspirational to say.  If you have a profound thought you want to share with someone, the inspiration might occur before you have an image to help you illustrate it.  Ideas come from all sorts of directions.  Are you ready to share your own inspirations?

Images can be the source for many inspired thoughts.
