I was honored by Nikon the borrowing of 2 Nikon D2x for the trip to New Orleans.
What I have found is that you can connect "2" cameras to the computer but firing them in Sync... you can not. Unless you manually set the to fire using a timelapse mode in the camera.
I am not the expert here... but you would think you could hack this to make it work.
Now I am choosing to use only one camera for the trip.
It will be mounted in the Roof top carrier that I will cool through a connection between the "moon roof" and a whole in the bottom of the carrier. The connection between the space will be insulation foam (1.5 inchest thick x 2) with a hole cut into it that matches the one in the carrier. I'll send pics when done.
This whole will be used to run extension cords and a USB cable to the camera.
At night I can disconnect the cords and close the moon roof.
This is tonights project.

This is a question that I figured out how to ask today. Regarding a Detect for Flash Player Plug-in. The best answer I could find in searching is a Detection Kit that you can download from Adobe. There are a few options, but the best one i found was a client-side detect that calls a .js document. It is an "IF/ELSE" statement that you can swap out the values for file, size, color... and then edit the "ELSE" message.
Thank you Adobe for being so kind.
Since moving up to Flash 8, there are still a tremendous amount of people who have not installed the new player. Have you? If not... go do it!

Everyone asks what I am up to with the Drive Project...
I have decided to track my activity with MovableType.
In the past 4 weeks I have been extremely busy working on DP STL 06. It is posted but not launched.
If you poke through you may find some bugs... I have... Getting them pressed out.
Updated my (mt) account to hold more images. The new project for St. Louis is 750ish megs. Looking foward to seeing what I come up with for New Orleans trip.
