edvas69 Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 If you add a Color Cosmic Ribbon to your display do you say that you now have 150 extra channels in your display or do you say its 50 pixels/channels or what ever else that you may think it would be. Or should it be kept seperate from your channel count and instead listed as a CCR.So a person with 10 CCRs can effectively say that they have 1500 channels (because they are individual channels) or would this be wrong to claim this as such?A lot of people have channel & light count signitures in the forums and should the CCR be counted as channels or have its own name in the signiture GIF.So throwing out there to guage peoples opinions
friskybri Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 I would use the same amount that LOR counts the CCR as. This is from the contest rules.Entries with Cosmic Color Ribbons will count each ribbon as 32 channels.http://www.lightorama.com/w_contest2009.htm
George Simmons Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 I think that anyone claiming either 32, 50 or 150 channels has a good argument they can make to support their math. With all due deference to LOR, I personally view a CCR as being a 50 channel device.

Seen many signatures with some ridiculous numbers and get a laugh from them.

Those 50 pixels then need to have 3 channels each for RGB so it brings it back up to a 150 channel count in the sequence editor (thats if your not using macros)

More than likely I'll have around 700.
