Advice Wanted - Nikkor D Lenses - This or that?

So to complete the setup with my newly acquired F4, I’d like a normal zoom, in the period appropriate D series. I already have a 70-210 f/4 D, and have ordered a 50mm f/1.4D. Which normal zoom should I get to accompany and complete the 3 lens setup? Looking for first hand experience with...

Wondering if anyone can recommend a (free) way to follow Instagram feeds in an RSS reader? I searched online for a way to convert an Instagram user's feed to an RSS feed but it appears it's “complicated”…

I self-host #FreshRSS and would like to be able to follow some music-related Instagram feeds which post about local gigs etc. I ditched my Instagram account a few years ago and won't ever go back, but it would be great to be able to see announcements of gigs and that sort of thing, from people who don't use anything to get the word out apart from the dreaded Instagram…

Thanks in advance!

I'd like to make my pixel art site more mobile-responsive. A lot (if not all) the doll/art pages end up with content off to the right, so the viewer has to scroll side-to-side to see everything.

Right now, my art, blurbs, and base credits are in HTML tables. Is there any way to make it so that if it's being viewed in a narrow browser window, the table cells will stack?

I'm also open to suggestions of other ways to display my art that don't involve tables. I'm just a very old-school coder, so HTML and a bit of CSS is all I know. 😅 I'm just not sure what's possible right now!

Quilters of Mastodon: lets say I have a bunch of equal-size rectangles that I want to piece into strips (actually, I want sashing on both short and long sides so I can make a brickwork-type pattern. Should I:

A) sew sashing on the short side, piece it into a long strip, and then piece a long strip of sashing to the long side of the pieced strip?

B) sew sashing to the short side of a rectangle, then the long side, then piece a bunch together into a strip?

C) sew sashing to the long side of the rectangle, then the short side, then piece together into a strip?

D) a secret fourth thing??

What’s going to be best for seam-allowance management, minimizing distortion, and general ease of use?

@artcollisions any advice?

Some nice shots taken with my #lumix #fz200 in Vietnam 🌴🌊

I need some advice on #cameras : I am after an #mft #microfourthirds camera right now, that I can get on a small budget. So far, I found a Lumix #GF5 , #GX1 and #GX800 second hand. The cheapest is of course the GF5 but I would also enjoy a 16 MP sensor :D Is the GX800 a lot better than GF5?
Does anybody have some advice or tips?

So does anyone here know anything about embroidery machines? As in what to look for, what to avoid, bad brands, etc?

Advice Wanted - Geo-tagging

I'm looking for a solution to batch geo-tag photos that take with my OM5iii. I can time sync the camera to my phone and then run a track while I'm out. I have several different apps to use to track. Ideally the one I use for hiking would work for the geotagging. But how do I go about tagging the...

Hello and welcome, morbid readers.

My family group chat has a yearly celebrity death pool. Who should I pick for 2026?

We score points as 100 minus age at death, and we get bonus points if the chat is actually glad they're gone (everyone always picks elon). I get 20 slots-- who do you think might croak this year?
