i wonder if there's a way to create a "directory" on the forum where we could get a list of all instagram handles? similar to the memberlist?

if this can't be done in the memberlist or hasn't already been done, i can go ahead and go through the posts and manually create a list for us :)

Mine is @jennyh1981

I've only been doing calligraphy since the end of March by taking Melissa Esplin's "I still love calligraphy" class online, but let me tell you that I have completely fallen in love with this art form! I definitely see myself seriously learning this for the long term. I bought Molly Suber's "Modern Calligraphy" book and my next purchase is "Mastering Copperplate Calligraphy" by Eleanor Winters. "Learn the rules like a pro so you can break them like an artist." :)

Post by: ultraQuiche on May 11, 2014, 07:30:24 PM
Oh. I thought Instagram was just a receptacle for teenagers' selfies.

I'll make one when I can haul all of my tumblr onto there. But my tumblr is ultraQuiche.
Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: Moya on May 11, 2014, 08:19:18 PM
See, now I thought Tumblr was just a receptacle for pictures of shirtless movie stars and thirteen-year-olds shrieking about them ... ;)

(that said, I now feed my instagram through to a tumblr, with the intention of at some point being able to say "Here's a snapshot of my work lately, at this website" - much easier for people who don't have an instagram to find me there.)

Instagram actually has a lively culture of its own, I'm finding - like Twitter for photos, basically.  And there's so much calligraphy there!
Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: ultraQuiche on May 11, 2014, 08:34:41 PM
Is there more activity on your IG than your tumblr?
Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: Moya on May 11, 2014, 08:58:49 PM
Well, my tumblr only has a couple of followers and doesn't follow anyone. I set it up a couple of years ago when I bought a domain name, so that the domain name could point to something (tumblr lets you do this free; wordpress charges for the privilege) and then left it empty for a long time.

Then a few days ago when I realised it would be worth running a calligraphy Instagram, I figured I'd feed it to the tumblr.  That way I can point people at my domain if I just want to show them quickly what my skills are, and they can go on and read my blog if they like, or just look at the pictures if they don't.  Since I'm not a professional calligrapher but would quite like to become one, I don't need a "real" website, just a place to showcase things - and people can email me through that if they like.

I'll do a lot more fiddling with the formatting in the coming weeks.  If the blog gets much readership outside of calligraphers, I may pay wordpress to host it there ... but I'd rather spend that money on ink ;)
Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: Estefa on May 11, 2014, 09:48:08 PM
I've started a tumblr blog some months ago, it's only about my calligraphy practice. While there is a lot of typography and calligraphy there, I feel that IG is much more lively and "responsive"! I've started using IG only some weeks ago (because such a lot of you guys were there!) and a lot more happens there than on my tumblr, could be maybe because I "knew" some of you from the start?! I like that it's quite casual (can be used on the phone). Now I mostly feed most (but not all) of my IG stuff in the tumblr blog ;).

I've just added you on tumblr, ultraQuiche :)!

Hi!  I'm janisalexandercross on Instagram.  I am self-taught & know that I am doing a lot wrong!  (I don't know why I can't maintain the proper angle!!)  I don't post very often on Instagram, but plan to do more in the future!  Janis
Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: Erica McPhee on May 26, 2014, 06:15:57 PM
Hi Janis,
The angle takes a lot of work. If you check out the tutorials in the Pointed Pen Nirvana Board, there are easy guidelines which have the angle guides. I always practice with the angle guides.  :)

But I think your work looks lovely!
Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: JanisTX on May 27, 2014, 07:48:39 AM
I LOVE the tutorials!  I used them all the time when learning Copperplate (along with the videos on IAMPETH and Youtube)!  I learned a form of Spencerian in grade school (Yes, I'm THAT old!) and was taught that the letters had to be at a 90 degree angle to the baseline.  I always won the handwriting award & practiced for years to have very "vertical" letters.   It's been SO hard to unlearn! I'm presently having lots of trouble with a lower case "i", as I love to make it at a 90 degree angle!  I keep working on it, though!  :D

Thank you for your kind words!

I must say, Its quite nice have a separate instagram for calligraphy and following people from this forum. Its SOOOO much better looking through a ton of beautiful artwork and lettering every morning versus a million selfies and duck faces on my private account :P
Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: SueL on July 14, 2014, 07:25:34 PM
Alexiz, lol at duck faces and selfies. :D But I have to agree with, it's much better looking at artwork and inspiring quotes in the morning.

Oh gee, that means a lot  :D Thank you. I always get discouraged when I don't progress as fast as others, but I realized each person learns at a different pace.

I'm not sure which envelopes you're referring to, but if they're colorful or on printed paper, I made them, so thank you!! I either make templates from pre-existing envelope shapes that I like, or I use my "we r memory makers" envelope punch board that I got from Amazon-it makes it a total breeze!!

This is a very interesting thread, even although I don't use Instagram yet.

However, I find one thing puzzling.
 
Instagram accounts seem to be named in different ways.

For example, http://instagram.com/name
or the same, but with an extra oblique at the end i.e. http://instagram.com/name/
Then there's the same but with the inclusion of the www i.e. http://www.instagram.com/name/
Sometimes the http:// is missing and it just becomes www.instagram.com/name
Or even just @name
or @/name

They can't all be right...............can they?  :o

Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: Andrew H on July 02, 2015, 04:26:12 PM
Ken, those are all essentially the same thing. I don't think I'm capable of explaining it all in a simple fashion (perhaps there's someone can do a better job than me?) but essentially, www before a domain is a hangover from the past and the slash afterwards is redundant. This is to do with how the web works fundamentally, not something specific to Instagram.

You can go to:
http://google.com
https://google.com
http://www.google.com
http://google.com/

and multiple combinations of these, and they will all take you to basically the same page. Your first example is the most straighforward, simple version.

If I tell someone my Instagram "handle" is @andrewdh, it's just a simple way of quickly telling them where to find me; since all Instagram account pages begin with "http://instagram.com/[your handle]" it's not necessary to add this part for anyone already familiar with the service :)

Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: prasad on July 11, 2015, 08:34:44 AM
Haven't done this Ken,  but I think what most people use is something like the Gorilla tripod that holds the iPod/iPhone in place when shooting clips.

Don't know if I am allowed to post pictures of it here,  but you can just google "gorilla tripod for iPod"

@ others in the forum.....Please get Ken up and running with video posting :)  Waiting to see his writing in motion.  I have his DVD but want to see words being written by him

Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: Estefa on July 11, 2015, 09:44:55 AM
Yes, I use that gorilla tripod thingy too. It's behind my paper, so the video is uopside down and I turn it later. You'll need an adapter for the IPhone, must be easy to find too on Amazon or whereever :). But you can use any video you have and trim it to the square format, then upload to Instagram. For the trimming (or cutting, how do you call it?) I use an app called 'Squaready for video'. It's very easy and self-explanationary to use. You can also cut a longer video in advance for the 15 second that Instagram allows.

I never use the camera function on Instagram – I always upload pics or videos from my camera roll on the phone!

One big advantage of not using the Instagram camera is that you don't have to hold the button all the time while recording. I hated that too when I made my first videos for Instagram!!

It's nice you're on Instagram now too, Ken :)!

Ken

Ken,

I would recommend recording in another application and then importing the video from your iPod's camera roll. Instagram makes a free app called Hyperlapse that allows you to record without holding down the button and can produce timelapse (sped up) videos to fit the Instagram length requirements. Here's an example taken with the native camera app (https://instagram.com/p/5AfQS9gBYu/?taken-by=iowapharm2014). (Sorry for the poor letterforms and lighting)

I propped my phone on an inverted mixing (American pint) glass. Just make sure that the orientation and focus of the camera is correct before starting to write. This is the low-tech/free solution compared to getting a proper tripod.
Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: Ken Fraser on July 11, 2015, 04:48:00 PM
Thank you all for your advice.

As a complete novice, I don't understand what is meant by "importing the video from your IPod's camera roll"

I do have MP4 video clips on my computer hard drive. Can they be edited to 15sec length, converted with "Squaready for video and somehow uploaded to instagram?

I'm not a fan of speeded-up video and would rather see shorter videos in real time.

Sorry for this rather garbled post!  :-\

Ken
Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: IowaPharm2014 on July 11, 2015, 06:35:48 PM
I'm not familiar with that particular app, but importing from your camera roll is what you do when you add a photo from inside the Instagram app that you'd taken previously (i.e. not taken with the Instagram app itself, but chosen from your existing photos).

I hope that clears up some of the confusion I created.

Ken

Like IowaPharm2014 said – it just means you can use the square button with the circle in it on Instagram not only to open the inbuilt camera / video camera, but also to upload any pictures or videos you have on your iPhone or iPod. That's how your screen should look after you pressed the middle button:

(https://farm1.staticflickr.com/438/19661928721_52e2061b93_z.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/vXswp4)

So yes, you can use the videos you already have on your computer. You don't have to use the 'Squaready' App – it is just convenient (especially for someone like me who is not used to edit videos), because it crops the videos to a square, and is very simple to use overall. But if you're more comfortable with another software you use already on your computer, use that! You also don't need to crop exactly to 15 seconds – you can do that on IG. Although I don't know if it can handle really long videos, I haven't tried that.

The only thing you need to do if you have videos already, is transfer them to your iPod, because Instagram doesn't allow uploading from the computer. As far as I know that has to do with the fact that it is meant to be originally a social app to share spontenous pics of everyday stuff, that you would capture with your mobile, and to prevent people to upload hundreds or thousands of pics at once (which would not only beat the idea of spontaneity, but also clog the feeds of all the followers of such a person).

The other app someone mentioned, 'Hyperlapse', allows you to make speed-up videos very easily. As I am not a big fan of those either (any more, I used it for a while too :) ), I don't use it anymore.

Post by: IowaPharm2014 on July 25, 2015, 03:46:52 PM
I'm glad I could help in some small way. It wasn't immediately obvious how to get videos on to your camera roll from your computer, but I figured it out. These steps are probably similar to what you are already doing to get photos from your computer to your iPod.

Place the video file in a folder on your computer that contains some pictures (it didn't want to work with a folder that only contained videos). Connect your iPod to your computer and open ITunes.

1. Select this icon to view the sync settings for your iPod.

2. Go to the Photos Settings section.

3. Select the folder that contains the video and pictures using this dropdown.

4. Make sure this box is checked.

Sync your iPod. The videos should now be available to use in any app (including Instagram) that can interact with videos from your camera roll. (Technically they aren't in your camera roll, they are in an Album (basically a folder for pictures and videos) that has the same name as the folder you created on your computer, but you just select that Album instead of the Camera Roll Album from within the app.)


Title: Re: Your Instagrams
Post by: Ken Fraser on July 25, 2015, 06:17:30 PM
Thank you Stephanie and Lance for taking the time to educate me.

I think that I'm almost there, but this last stage has me beaten.

Sync your iPod. The videos should now be available to use in any app (including Instagram) that can interact with videos from your camera roll. (Technically they aren't in your camera roll, they are in an Album (basically a folder for pictures and videos) that has the same name as the folder you created on your computer, but you just select that Album instead of the Camera Roll Album from within the app.)


I've found the camera roll, but I don't know how to select the Album containing the file from within the app.

On the iPod, a copy of my video clip is now in 'camera'  'all photos' and I can select it.......but it isn't in 'camera roll'.

I'd be grateful if you can find the time to get me past this last hurdle.

Ken (feeling more than a little, stupid!)  :-[

Post by: IowaPharm2014 on July 25, 2015, 06:54:38 PM
No problem. I'm away from my computer so can't make a nice picture, but I'll try to explain in words.

From within Instagram click on the place that Estefa indicated to add a picture from your camera roll.

Drag the thumbnails of pictures in your camera roll down towards the bottom of the screen.

You should now see a left-pointing arrow and the name of the album you are currently viewing (Camera Roll).

Touch the arrow to view all of your Albums.

Touch the name of the album that contains your video to open it.

Ken, did you take down your instagram account?  :(

Yes, I withdrew from Instagram a couple of weeks ago.

I did enjoy looking at the writing of others, but I found the experience as a whole too mixed. I am only interested in Calligraphy / Lettering / Handwriting and I found the constant interspersing with pictures of groups of people : selfies : pets : children : buildings : scenery, and even plates of food just too much of an irritation.  :-\

I do try to keep an open mind, and I may have another go, sometime.

Have you all gotten the Instagram update that now allows multiple accounts logged on?!
I noticed it just about a day or two ago:

Go to your profile tab and select the menu on the top right (3 dots).
Scroll down to "Add Account" and it will ask for your instagram information for the account you would like to add.
Now the icon on the bottom right will indicate which account you're logged in to, and on the top left of your profile tab, you can select which instagram account to view, go to its feed, like, comment, post, etc. Pretty neat! No more logging in and out or having my personal one on my phone and my calligraphy one on my tablet... lol.

Hello everyone!

I'm Shiela, but you can call me Yang. :)

I've been doing tons of lettering since I was barely 3 years old. My love for everything handlettered is not only love but more of an unwavering passion. It's so nice to be able to join a community such as this where I can learn and at the same time share things I've done recently (well I was in a hiatus for more than a decade after I decided to finally settle down with my childhood love---would you imagine?).

Anyhow, my Instagram account is @misstinydoodler

Hope you can add me and I'll add you as well :)

Thanks a bunch!

Over the past couple of years, I've built up quite a sizeable Instagram collection of my work, but two small issues still bug me.  Perhaps some knowledgeable Instagrammer can help me with a couple of very basic questions.

Where and how can I access the little symbols which are occasionally added to replies - such as the small smiley, yellow faces and the thumbs up.

Also what is the meaning of the narrow, upright rectangle with a cross inside?

Hi Ken,
The smilies, thumbs up, etc. are emojis which are done with a smart phone.

I think you are asking about the square in the center with the + sign in it? That is how you add photos or videos from your gallery.

Where and how can I access the little symbols which are occasionally added to replies - such as the small smiley, yellow faces and the thumbs up.

Also what is the meaning of the narrow, upright rectangle with a cross inside?

Thanks for the info re : emojies (I've learned a new word!)

The symbol I'm describing, appears alongside the smilies etc, as part of a reply. It's a really narrow, tiny rectangular box standing upright on its short end. Internally, two lines join at the corners forming a cross.

Hi Ken,
The smilies, thumbs up, etc. are emojis which are done with a smart phone.

I think the symbol you are talking about is when certain devices don't recognize certain emojis - it's a placeholder. My phone does that once in awhile when someone with an Apple phone comments on a post of mine and it's an emoji that Android devices do not support.

Ah,  that makes sense. I can now stop trying to figure out what it could possibly mean!

Thank you!

Ken is the x box made with very thin lines so that it looks more like a typed character than a picture/emoji?  If so that means the other person used an emoji that you're computer/phone doesn't recognize and doesn't have an image for, so it puts that box there instead.

Hello There

I haven't and Instagram account , Is it important to have an Instagram account , although I have a website  ? I am an Arabic calligrapher .

Hi @Arabic calligraphy – Instagram has the great advantage over a website that you can upload new work easily, that way creating a gallery of work in a context where you can be found by using the right hashtags, and that it lets you connect with likeminded people. I also get business through Instagram – many agencies etc. search in IG for visual content of all sorts. – Of course havinga website also doesn't hurt for more in-depth information etc. ;).
