[REL] Captain's Desk Photos Mods
« on: September 03, 2009, 06:26:19 PM »
These are sets of images to replace the sailor photo on the desk in the office. Images have been resized, then either cropped, or had padding added top and bottom or on the sides to meet the SH4 size requirement, then converted to the required TGA format. These files ONLY work with the American Career when using the U-boat Add-on. The German office uses a different directory and image size.

These files are set up to be used with my SH4 Randomizer, or Digital Trucker's A Girl In Every Port program, which is also available for download below.

Files which say "some slight nudity" means either naked backsides, or nudity with the "naughty bits" not visible. Usually both types are in a given set.

Except for the modern era girls, images are from WWII era actresses or artists. I've tried to not include images that are blatantly so, however some images are post-war.

All files include a readme.txt, which includes more information and instructions on using the images without AGIEP. They also include a thumbnail image file which you can also view by clicking the following link:

NOTE: The thumbnails are on my MediaFire account. For the larger images, you will have to download them to see them properly.

Files marked with a * are not available here due to space limitations. They can be downloaded here:

A Girl In Every Port




Captain's Desk Photos 1

32 black & white pictures (no nudes) of modern day model and self-proclaimed "Most downloaded woman on the Internet," Danni Ashe. Images were originally in color, but for a bit of "realism" I dropped them down to grayscale.


Captain's Desk Photos 2

32 black & white pictures (no nudes) of modern day model & late night premium cable actress Shannan Leigh. Images were originally in color, but for a bit of "realism" I dropped them down to grayscale.


Captain's Desk Photos 3

50 black & white pictures (no nudes) of modern day burlesque star and model Dita Von Teese. Her look is based on 1940s style, so she's a natural for this. Images were originally in color, but for a bit of "realism" I dropped them down to grayscale.


Captain's Desk Photos 4

The thumbnails are now available for viewing before you download the file. My ISP gives me 100MB of space for my personal web site, and since I haven't even used a tenth of it I decided to put the thumbnails there instead of using one of those image hosting sites. So now you can see what you'll be getting without having to download the file first.

you could also create a subfolder in your ftp folder named images and put them there.
but now you use your ISP and it works, then no need to change it...

I'll keep that in mind if for some reason I have to move them from my ISP.

Captain's Desk Photos 39 - View CDP39 Thumbnails

29 color art pictures (some slight nudity) by artist Merlin Enabnit. Though born and working in the U.S.A., his work was most popular with British soldiers.


I'm looking at some of these images and wondering, if anyone knowing Photoshop well enough to have an idea how to edit real photos to look like these drawn images?
I have spoken with a model to shoot some photos of her one day, and try to convert the photos so that the photos appear as if they were drawn.
Anyone having experience with the tools in Photoshop to do something like that?

I don't have Photoshop, but I have played around with something like that in Paint Sho Pro. It has effect filters to make images look like several different types of artwork.

Which version of PSP do you have? I have an older version 7.04, from when Jasc was the developper and publisher. Now it's Corel IIRC. Maybe my version does have the some of the same filters...
