Donna asks…
Seriously, how did I possibly violate community guidlines this time?
I asked “Where can I watch (not download) free movies online?”
It got reported. Never once did I say “Yeah, I want to pirate stuff,” or even mention copyrighted movies.
I didn’t break the law, I wasn’t rude, I just asked a simple question. I swear someone is out to get me, but my q&a is private. I won’t even bother appealing. It NEVER works.
Please. I’m dumbfounded. What did I do this time?
Nagesh answers:
Whether you mention it explicitly or not, the interpretation is that you want to watch current movies for free, which means breaking copyright laws. Because we aren’t mind readers. If you don’t want to run that risk, clarify your question properly. State that you want sites that show older movies no longer under copyright or sites that own the rights and allow people to watch for free anyway.

Which Nintendo DS game system should i buy? DSi or wait for the 3DS?
I want to buy a new DS system but im having trouble choosing which one. Im thinking about getting the DSi only because it will be less expensive. Any opinions? and what color should i buy?
Nagesh answers:
Either one is good, but I would suggest you wait for 3DS because it will also be compatible with DS and DSi ware games. It also supports multimedia, motion control, touch-screen, 3 cameras, and Wi-Fi. But it’s your choice, so get whichever you like most.
Some of the features of 3DS you may not know about:
The 3DS graphics is the closest handheld gaming device that comes close to 360/PS3 graphical wise(you gotta see it to believe it; specs don’t count), it supports 2 screens, 1st screen as a 3D screen without glasses(it’s real and it works, you can also turn off the 3D if you want 2D), 2nd screen as a touch-screen, compatible with the old generations of DS softwares, gyroscope, accelerometer, audio player, 3 cameras(one inside, and two outside), capable of taking 2D/3D photos and capturing 2D/3D videos, 2D/3D movie playback, multitasking(i.e. You can access web browser while playing a game), Virtual Console Service(which was not available with the DSi/DSi XL) and some 3D remakes of classic retro games(GB, GBC, GBA, NES, SNES, and more), also compatible with DSi Wares, 3DS Mii Plaza (Mii creation), augmented reality games, CrossPass” (which can automatically seek and connect to wireless network nodes such as Wi-Fi hotspots, sending and downloading information in the background while in sleep mode or while playing a game), 3D TV streaming, e-book reader,better online capabilities, apps , video chat, shop channel, web browser (and anything you do on the web like mail, facebook, etc.), and more which weren’t fully announced by Nintendo. Plus the games are longer and are quality games.
Some games that will be coming out for it:
Metal Gear Solid 3, Super Street Fighter IV, Resident Evil: Revelation, Resident Evil: Mercenaries, Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Times, Kid Icarus, Paper Mario, Star Fox 64, Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright, Mario Kart, Kingdom Hearts series, Final Fantasy series, Dead or Alive 3D, Ninja Gaiden, Samurai Warriors 3D, Assassin’s Creed: Lost Legacy, Ghost Recon, Splinter Cell, Call of Duty, Megaman Legends 3, and more. There will also be 3DS ware games, like Cave Story.
Some features:
Just in case you go “where’s the 3D!?” it won’t work on your computer screen, you gotta see it in person to see the 3D.
Few of the games that will be coming out for it:
Port of Super Street Fighter IV:
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater:
Professor Layton VS Phoenix Wright

You should know that glasses-free 3D cameras and videos don’t come cheap and you’re looking at about $500+, but 3DS packs more features, yet it’s only less than $300. If you think about it, the iPod Touch cost more than the 3DS when it comes to features and games.
In conclusion, get the one you like best and that fits your money.
Nancy asks…
Should I get a play station 3 or a play station 2?
my ps2 broke after 5 years of having it and I haven’t rly cared, but I don’t know if I should get another for 40 dollars or a ps3 for 200 or more dollars. I’d like a ps3 but most of my fave ps2 games might not work on it. I have 30 ps2 games.
Nagesh answers:
The new ps3 does not play ps2 discs , no ps3 made since early 2008 does .
They onkly made ps2 compatible ps3 consoles for one year and removed the option to play ps2 discs to make the ps3 cheaper ( it was over $500 before and now is $249 )
if you want to play ps2 games buy a ps2 , if you want to play the newer games and play online buy a ps3 , ps2 games are available to download for $10 each ( not many yet but more are coming all the time ) and most of the big name ps2 games such as sly copper , metal gear solid , ico , god of war and others are also available for the ps3 with HD graphics
decide what you want more , to play older games and own a console that will not have any new games released anymore and does not have online support anymore – or to play all the latest games such as uncharted , skyrim , call of duty , Flower , and heavy rain and play online ( plus have a blu-ray player , playstation home , rent movies directly from the ps3 , netflix etc. )
you can probably trade in the ps2 games you have and get some money off a ps3 too .
Lisa asks…
Can you change video size with decline in quality?
I have a video that I am using in JASC Animation Shop so I can save each frame, clean it up in Paint Shop Pro, and then put the new frames into an animated gif before bringing it over to Movie Maker. However, you can only export a certain size gif from Animation Shop. Would I be able to resize it Movie Maker without loss or do I need another tool?
*with decline should be WITHOUT decline in the subject header
Nagesh answers:
The ideal gif for including in videos is the same size as the frame size (height and width) of the video. This means that there is going to a limit on the number of layers you can have in your gif (because the more layers you have, the smaller the layers have to be). The resolution of the gif should also be higher (up to print quality, 300 dpi) than the usual resolution (72 dpi) for gif animations.
Resizing a gif in any video editor is going to give it the “blurries”. Only very short video clips should be turned into animated gifs. If you have a 5 minute video clip, try turning it into a faux time lapse or use one of the video to gif tools that can be found online.
I use Evan’s little Movie To GIF Animation program. There are two versions – XP/Vista and Windows 7. This little program always worked fine on my Vista computer but I had problems with the Windows 7 version on my Windows 7 computer so I downloaded the older version and it works fine.

There are other programs that can also turn a video into a gif animation.
