I'm sorry to inform you I had to delete you Watchmen (Comic) page because we do not document comics on this site, period. If you don't want your comic pics wasted, I guess it would be okay to compare to the facts on the MOVIE watchmen page I built. If you don't know how, I'll do it for you, but we don't do comics here, just movies, television, anime, and video games. Again, I'm very sorry. - Gunmaster45
Arggg, did a Frankengun Fix
I spoke to the original gun owner, and suggested a 'frankengun' fix in PS, and surprisingly, he said he 'thought it was cool'. He was intrigued to see what the pistol would look like with the 'correct trigger guard', so I took a photo of a Beretta 92SB and 'merged' the rounded trigger guard onto the Podbyrin. How does this look? I usually try to avoid doing a lot of photoshop on a gun pic, other than lightening shadows or darkening highlights or fixing scratches or (obscuring SNs). It's still not the screen used gun, but now it's closer to the real deal. MoviePropMaster2008 21:09, 4 June 2009 (UTC) Looks really good, man.-protoAuthor
VG
Send your comment to Excalibur1, since he was the one discussing strength ratios. I don't play VGs so I don't know anything about that. My only gripe was that they commonly use weapons that are rare or experimental or 'just released' that no Movie Armorer anywhere in the world has, thus we have to have these stupid gun pages for these weapons which no one physically has.

- Yeah, I probably should do that. On it.-protoAuthor
RE: Commentary
Thanks. Most people avoid commentary on this site because it is more personalized and not very "Wiki-style", but I do my best to make it impersonal so I can include it. I envy Legion's of Fate's site for being able to personalize his comments as he pleases and list all the goofs as the story progresses. Unfortunately that isn't IMFDB format. I bet I'll probably get yelled at for using 17 screencaps for the Model 27 though, even though I think the commentary justifies it. - Gunmaster45
Screencapping system
Congratulations. I brighten and high pass sharpen my screencaps so they look really nice. I don't know what type of editing program you have, so play around with it and see what works. Never brigthen an image 100% though, it will always look like crap. - Gunmaster45
- ...I have MS Paint, that's it.-protoAuthor
- Oh, I have Corel Paint Shop Pro. - Gunmaster45
Leon
I hope you aren't redoing Leon (The Professional), I bought the special DVD just to screencap it. BTW, when you screencap, crop out the widescreen bars. Images with widescreen bars are subject to be replaced. - Gunmaster45
- I don't know how to do that, I think it's the disc. I'll leave it to you, though. I thought you had forgotten about it. -protoAuthor
- Incidentally, to answer this; you have to load the image manually in something like Photoshop or GIMP, drag a selection box to include the middle of the image but not the widescreen bars, and then use the 'crop' option to trim it down to just the selected area. It's rather boring work for a lot of screenshots, but it makes the page look a lot better. Vangelis 05:26, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

Is actually correct, it's what Surefire call the thing. See http://www.surefire.com/weapons_overview Vangelis 05:18, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
