A better picture of the screen print I did for the Look Around You show at LittleBird gallery in LA. I think I named it The Ultimate Collector. Now available $30 in my new store.
Argh last night my old heavy tv fell of it's stand on my laptop screen...the screen showed a freaking rainbow of stripes and when you touch the screen the colours change slightly. A website concerning screen defects gave a very sad diagnosis...total replacement of lcd screen. At first I was superduper upset. So I searched online for a solution that´s when I found a company online that could fix it for...265 euro 0_O I thought my gosh there has to be a cheaper way. So today I looked on ebay and found the identical screen :P for just 114 euro. So I ordered it. Then I went on Youtube and found a howtovideo for replacing lcd screens ;P Woot woot!
My message to everybody just use ebay and youtube and you´re on your way of becoming a technician!
I´ll update this story

American actor Johnny Depp is one of the most versatile actors in today's Hollywood. He made his film debut as one of Freddy Krueger's victims in A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984). With his dark, intense eyes and highly defined cheekbones, he shot to fame as a teen idol in the TV series 21 Jump Street (1987). He is now best known for his many wonderful collaborations with director Tim Burton, and for his flamboyant pirate Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of Carribean franchise. He likes to play freakishly eccentric outcasts whose oddities are misunderstood by society. Depp has been nominated for three Oscars and has won the Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Awards for Best Actor.
John Christopher Depp II was born in Owensboro, Kentucky, in 1963, to Betty Sue (Wells), who worked as a waitress, and John Christopher Depp, a civil engineer. Depp was raised in Florida. He dropped out of school when he was 16 (or 15 - the sources differ), after his parents divorced. The brooding teenager fronted a series of music-garage bands, including the punk rock/New Wave band The Kids, which opened for Iggy Pop, Duran Duran, and The B-52's. When he married Lori Anne Allison (Lori A. Depp), he took up the job of being a ballpoint-pen salesman to support himself and his wife during slack times in the music business. When he visited Los Angeles with his wife, he met actor Nicolas Cage, who advised him to turn to acting. This culminated in Depp's film debut in the low-budget horror film, A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), where he played a teenager who falls prey to dream-stalking demon Freddy Krueger. He played a supporting role as a Vietnamese-speaking private in Oliver Stone's Vietnam War film Platoon (1986), starring Charlie Sheen. In 1987 he shot to stardom when he replaced Jeff Yagher as Officer Tom Hanson, who goes on an undercover operation by posing as a student in crime-ridden Los Angeles-area high schools in the TV series 21 Jump Street (1987). After numerous roles in teen-oriented films, Depp spoofed the genre as 1950s teen rebel 'Cry-Baby' Wade Walker in John Waters' tongue-in-cheek Cry-Baby (John Waters, 1990). The film received positive reviews from critics, but did not achieve high audience numbers in its initial release. It has subsequently become a cult classic and spawned a Broadway musical of the same name which was nominated for four Tony Awards. That year, Depp also started his great collaborations with director Tim Burton, playing the title role in the romantic dark fantasy Edward Scissorhands (1990) with Winona Ryder and Christopher Lee.
Following the film's success, Johnny Depp carved a niche for himself as a serious, somewhat dark, idiosyncratic performer, consistently selecting roles that surprised critics and audiences alike. He continued to gain critical acclaim and increasing popularity by appearing in such features as Lasse Hallström's What's Eating Gilbert Grape (1993). He starred alongside Leonardo DiCaprio and Juliette Lewis in this drama about a dysfunctional family. He rejoined with Burton in the lead role of Ed Wood (Tim Burton, 1994), a biographical film about one of history's most inept film directors. Then he played a newly-orphaned accountant in the surrealist Western Dead Man (Jim Jarmusch, 1995), and an undercover FBI agent in the fact-based crime drama Donnie Brasco (Mike Newell, 1997), opposite Al Pacino. Depp appeared as Hunter S. Thompson's alter ego in Terry Gilliam's trippy adaptation of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998). The same year he teamed up again with Burton in Sleepy Hollow (Tim Burton, 1999), brilliantly portraying Ichabod Crane. With Chuck E. Weiss, Depp turned the Central Nightclub in Los Angeles, into the famous Viper Room at 8852 Sunset Blvd. The building was once owned by infamous gangster Bugsy Siegel. It's also the place where River Phoenix passed away on 31 October 1993. Depp closed down the Viper Room for two weeks after Phoenix's death and he also closed it on every 31 October until 2004. That year, he ended his ownership of the Viper room when he signed it over to Amanda Fox, the daughter of his missing partner in the club, Anthony Fox. Depp also once co-owned a restaurant/club in a former cinema in Paris called Man Ray (named after the avant-garde artist), with Sean Penn, John Malkovich and British musician Mick Hucknall.
Johnny Depp has played many different and often bigger-than-life characters in his career. He played a fact-based one, Insp. Fred Abberline in From Hell (Albert Hughes, Allen Hughes, 2001). He stole the show in the finale to Robert Rodriguez's Mariachi trilogy, Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003), opposite Antonio Banderas. In that same year he starred in the marvelous family blockbuster Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (Gore Verbinski, 2003), playing a character that only the likes of Depp could pull off: the charming, conniving and roguish Capt. Jack Sparrow. He based Sparrow on rock legend Keith Richards and the Looney Tunes character, Pepe Le Pew. The film's enormous success included an Oscar nomination for Depp. Depp was again nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for his performance as kind-hearted Scottish novelist James Matthew Barrie, who penned the children's classic Peter Pan, in Finding Neverland (Marc Forster, 2004), with Kate Winslet. He appeared as the notorious second Earl of Rochester in the British film, The Libertine (Lawrence Dunmore, 2004) opposite John Malkovich. Depp collaborated again with Burton in a screen adaptation of Roald Dahl's novel, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Tim Burton, 2005), and the stop-motion animation Corpse Bride (Tim Burton, 2005), in which Depp voiced the character Victor Van Dort. Later followed Sweeney Todd (Tim Burton, 2007), Alice in Wonderland (Tim Burton, 2010) and Dark Shadows (Tim Burton, 2012). Depp reprised the role of Jack Sparrow in the Pirates sequels Dead Man's Chest (Gore Verbinski, 2006), At World's End (Gore Verbinski, 2007) and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (Rob Marshall, 2011), which were again major box office successes.
Off-screen, Johnny Depp has dated several female celebrities, and has been engaged to Sherilyn Fenn, Jennifer Grey, Winona Ryder and Kate Moss. He was married to Lori Anne Allison in 1983, but divorced her in 1985. Depp has two children with French singer/actress Vanessa Paradis: Lily-Rose Melody (1999) and Jack (2002). He married actress/producer Amber Heard in 2015. Heard filed for divorce from Johnny Depp in May, 2016. She was granted a temporary domestic violence restraining order against Depp in relation to a physical altercation between the couple, which resulted in Heard filing for divorce in the first place. Heard was granted $7 million as part of the former couple's divorce, which was finalised in 2017. Depp has struggled with alcoholism and addiction for much of his life. Depp has stated that he began smoking at age 12 and began using alcohol and drugs shortly thereafter. In July 2018, Depp was sued for allegedly punching a crew member twice in the ribs during a foul-mouthed tirade. Court documents stated that the actor "reeked of alcohol" and took drugs on set. According to IMDb, Johnny Depp resides in France, Los Angeles, and an island he owns in the Bahamas. He divides his time in France between Meudon, a suburb of Paris and a villa in Plan-de-la-Tour, an hour outside of St Tropez in Southern France. He also purchased Bela Lugosi's Los Angeles home. Depp is intensely protective of his private life. Inside the Actors Studio (1994) is one of the few televised interviews he's granted. Hal Erickson at AllMovie: "Despite this massive success (or maybe as a result), Depp's career suffered a downswing after a string of critical and commercial flops. Films like The Tourist (opposite Angelina Jolie), Dark Shadows (a rare misstep with Tim Burton) and The Lone Ranger failed to connect with audiences and critics alike and left many to wonder when Depp's career would recover." It did. In recent years, Depp reprised the role of the Mad Hatter in Alice Through the Looking Glass (James Bobin, 2016), reprised his role as Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (Joachim Rønning, Espen Sandberg, 2017), and he was seen in the blockbuster Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (David Yates, 2018), written by J. K. Rowling and starring Eddie Redmayne. Depp is set to return as Gellert Grindelwald in the third Fantastic Beasts film, which is scheduled for release in November 2020.

A screen either side of each other. Could do with a screen at opposite corners of the coach as well so all passengers can see. As it is, only half the passengers can see without the need to turn around.
At least more information is now at hand.
Little house geckos hanging around the screened in porch, waiting for the bugs that try to get through.
Trying out a mirrorless camera, Samsung NX2000, in my attempt to downsize while traveling. But found it hard to handle all the controls through the touch screen, lack of a viewfinder, shorter battery life, lack of advanced features that I have on my old DSLR and other adjustments - so I concluded that I need to keep looking for a different model.
The 2014 NFL season kicks off early in Richmond when the Washington Redskins return to the Bon Secours Washington Redskins Training Center from July 24 to Aug. 11, leaving town four days earlier than last year, but adding two Sunday practices. There's not a better opportunity for you to watch the team practice from the sidelines and maybe even score an autograph or photo with your favorite players. Last year more than 150,000 fans came to Richmond to watch, meet and get autographs from their favorite players. Red Weasel Media RWM was right in the middle of the action.
Quite regularly when I got hold of a nice bellows camera, the ground glass screen was missing or was severely damaged. Since it is hard to get hold of original screens in the dimensions needed, I found my self a way in making these screens. Since it is quite easy (just by finding some available sources on the internet), I thought I might share this with you - since you might want to do it yourself when restoring a camera.
What you need for a start is a piece of glass cut to fit the ground glass holder of your camera. The original old glass was only 1mm thick, but you won't find this anymore as new glass. Today glass is made more thick and you may find 2mm and 1,4mm glass. I have the pieces always cut by my glass supplier since I have to buy new glass anyway. However if you already have a piece of glass you could buy a glass cutter and cut the glass to your needs. My glass supplier uses a cutter with oil which makes cutting easier. Please note that because of the position of the cutting wheel, you may have to reduce the measured seizes with about 2mm in order to cut the right dimensions.
Further you'll have to find or buy a thick piece of glass - lets say about 6mm - which has to fit nicely into the palm of your hands - and will be your grinding tool. The glass must have nice flat sides.
Next you'll need grinding powder. I'll use silicon carbide in two grades: F400 and F600. The powder in combination with water will ground the glass to a ground glass screen. The grinding is done by making round strokes with your glass grinding tool.
In this first pictures you'll see a piece of 1,4mm glass of 9 x 12 cm. I first took off the sharp edges with a sandpaper - no need to say that its so much easier handling a piece of glass with 'soft' edges.
Maybe that after you got your glass cut by your glass supplier, it won't fit directly e.g., like in this case, the wooden ground glass holder of my camera had rounded corners. So I had to shape these corners myself by using sandpaper.
This is my somewhat poor attempt at a transparent screen, but then I haven't done any touching up of it. Here's how I did it.
My girlfriend as she appears on the focusing screen of a Nikon F4 camera. I have used an sb700 as commander for an sb700 and a YN568EX. Both strobes were shot through white umbrellas from left and righ up high to lighten up the camera a little bit. I have used an 50mm f1,8 AF lens with a PK-12 extension tube on my d600 body.
Experimenting with multiple exposures but all in all, having the picture taken in RAW proved to be far better to manipulate in Photoshop.
