[Done] Xia ri fu xing (1985)

This is the last of the 'My Lucky Stars' films. I think this one is the best because here they mainly focused on the fight scenes rather than the dry but enjoyable humour.

Number one in the series: http://imcdb.org/movie.php?id=86605

The correct aspect ratio is 1.85:1, according to the IMDB:

Is because I cut the black borders. Also notice I own the Digital Remastered version :wink:

That does not explain why the pictures are too flat :grin:

That's the problem? What shall I do about it then?

I'm sorry I give you all these sorts of troubles, but I'm new to this and therefore I'm unsure what to do if the images are to fat/flat/long/short/big/small/unreliable/copyrighted and so forth.

They will have be resized to be added to the site anyway (since >720 pixels wide) so not a big problem for this time, but how can I give hint except that proportions of cars should look good? :grin:
When you remove borders, you should also resize it to 720 pixels wide if it is bigger than that. And for the height, it depends on what ratio the movie should have. It can either be taken from IMDB (not always reliable) or guessed, to find what gives the best proportions. There are few details on http://forum.imcdb.org/forum_topic-1201-How_you_can_submit_pictures.html

Antoine, did you notice that the first two captures (the bus and the Hiace) differ from the others? That's because I took a screenshot rather than taking a snapshot from the VLC media player (as I did to the others). They look pretty 'normal' to me, what do you think?

Indeed.
By doing a screenshot you are sure that the image is the same as the one shown on your screen, as long as the ratio was good there :grin: But it is probably easier for you to use the capture function of the program, and then resize all pictures later with XnView or other similar program.
Are the picture from a DVD or is it a video file (divx or so)?

Right. The images are taken from a DVD.

Anyway, I will not upload any films until my other pictures are posted on the page.

Hiace far and obstructed; cars seen in pictures (as your 'Meyers Manx?, one star') only can be added in comments of the movie. Cannot get its own page. The pic after the bus too dark to be added. The Jaguars too far and littles.
I have not found any australian NYK brand for the ground conveyor so, initially, is 'unknown'.

The pics are with DVD quality (not HD), so must be reduced to 720.

And using geting.se (i use it, but only for thumbnails in comments) the system doesn't recognize the link to the image and i must save before the image in my PC. So, as you are doing lately, please use imageshack.
Thanks

PS as usual you can add extra pics in comments
