Adobe provides Flash converter in HTML5

2011-10-09T00:33:00.001-07:00

As Microsoft Internet Explorer 6, Adobe will he kill his own creation, pampered for years, the Flash format? In any case, suggests that its latest initiative, unveiled yesterday. Appointed WallabyThis utility allows you to convert Flash files (format. FLA) in HTML5. No less.

The announcement, made in a relatively discreet, sounds like some sort of response - albeit a little late - the refusal of Steve Jobs to incorporate Flash technology into theiPhone and theiPadAnd just as an act of allegiance to those who revile Flash and HTML5 is the only viable option. Perhaps the beginning of a historic turning point for the web.

Specifically, for those who have little to do with these considerations and geeks who just want access to an entire web that works on all terminals, recall that the Flash is supported by 98% of computers worldwide, and can play videos, animations, games and other types of sites, as also the rich e-commerce applications. A format called "owner" and "closed" because it belongs to a private company and that the source code of applications developed with is not visible or accessible. It also criticizes Flash to consume much CPU resources, to heat the PC and quickly drain the batteries of phones. This is half true and depends mainly on applications.
A web without Flash multimedia, soon a reality?

In short, when we surf we made the Flash all day without knowing it. The new HTML5 standards being defined should ultimately obviate the need for Flash with all the benefits that entails: need a plugin to run animations, and especially compatibility with all modern web browsers on all terminals, either on PC, mobile or tablet. This is not the case today: a site such as Deezer iPad is inaccessible and does not on other Android smartphones (from version 2.2). Which leads to a paradox a bit absurd: all websites whose operation requires Flash PC are forced to propose a specific application for mobile, which is not really in the sense of a single standard type webapp and interoperability advocated by ... Anti-Flash. The gossips say also that if as many applications on the App Store is largely because, as the iPhone and iPad are not compatible with Flash, which would a way for Steve Jobs to protect its ecosystem. But they are gossips, eh :-)

Adobe has released a first version of Wallaby, currently experimental and intended for developers. Its functionality is currently rather limited, but Adobeva work to improve and complete the program. Wallaby exports for the moment that the elements of a Flash project and uses HTML and CSS and a JavaScript library for rendering. The programming language in Flash, ActionScript, is currently not supported.

Document sharing website Scribd using HTML5

The document sharing services like Scribd and SlideshareWhich can easily publish and share business presentations, white papers and transcripts of conferences suffered from original sin: they used Flash for integration into a web page, a bit like a YouTube.

And Flash is not compatible with mobile or shelves (except Android 2.2 and more, I repeat every time because otherwise it makes me always note), the huge information base provided by these sites n ' was available on a desktop PC. This is a little bundle at the time of the mobile web and theiPad.

Scridb, Which had already started working on the issue in recent months, just update your site Now offering the availability of all presentations hosted in HTML5. A gigantic work of conversion given that Scribd hosts something like twenty million documents.

This change makes at once the full sources available either on smartphone, even if alternative solutions to be sent in different formats compatible were already available.

I a presentation,replacing the code by the Flash code interpreting the HTML5 (via iframe) and if it works fine on PC, it is unfortunately not the case on my iPad: if the presentation is identical and zoom operations, the navigation function in the pages via the up / down does not work, page numbers are displayed but the presentation is stuck on the first page, at least at home.

FREE PDF EDITOR REVIEW
Most Operation System is equipped with Adobe Reader. With adobe reader, you can view and in most cases edit any PDF file. The only limitation is when the file is encrypted, then adobe reader will only be allowed to display the file, but unable to edit the file. But even though you can edit the PDF file, most likely you can only print the form, but won’t be able to save it into your hard disk. To save the changes made in the PDF files, you will need different software. The most common software that enables you to save the edited version of the PDF file would be Adobe acrobat which will probably cost you around $ 500 to purchase. Is there no other way? Yes there is
Basically you have two solutions. The first option would be to use PDF Editor on the internet which usually would be free. PDF escape is one of this PDF editor software available online. The second option would be to download a PDF converter, which allows you to change the format into more acceptable and common form such as MS Office’s Word, Excel, or PowerPoint. We will discuss these options deeper as we continue.
PDF escape is a free of charge web based PDF editor program that works on windows platform. All you need is an active internet browser with Java Script enabled. Any browser would work just fine, whether it’s internet explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Opera, or even the newer Google chrome. It is actually have sophisticated features that allow you to edit, fill form, arrange page, print and save the file. This software provides online storage, but only for a short amount of time.
Because this software is web based, you will need internet connection to run the program. The interface is actually quite similar with adobe acrobat. Editing tools specifically are quite helpful. You can add text and shapes, arrange pages, link another web address into the page, create new forms, and using the whiteout you can edit any existing object on the page. Afterward, you can save the file, print it, or share it to any online account. Since it’s done online, it’s easier to link the file into your email.
The only weakness of PDF escape is when you are connected through a slow internet connection. This will slow your work with the risk of losing your data if the connection is terminated unexpectedly. This is where the second option which is to use PDF converter comes in better.
PDF converter such as AnyBizSoft allows you to convert any PDF files into any form that you are most capable and comfort for editing. Basically this software allows you to convert PDF files in 1.0 – 1.7 format into MS Office Word, Excel or PowerPoint. With no restriction even on encrypted PDF files, you can easily convert a PDF file, and afterward, you can edit these files.

WMV Format

2011-06-29T02:33:00.000-07:00

WMV FORMAT

A WMV file is a video in the Windows Media Video format created by Microsoft. A WMV file format comprises both audio and video data, compressed to be broadcast in streaming, like MPEG-2 or MPEG-4. There are several versions of the WMV format such as WMV HD or VC-1, recognized as a de facto standard for the audiovisual industry. To play a video in WMV format, simply use a media player such as Windows Media Player, or its equivalent free VLC Player. However, for files that are not in WMV format, it will be necessary to convert first before being able to read.

Convert video to WMV format
In fact, there are two solutions:
Solution A: Use Windows MovieMaker to open your video clip and do the necessary installations (where applicable). MovieMaker comes with Windows XP, so no download is required. Once assembling is complete, you will then export the sequence. MovieMaker will not ask you the export format as it can only export WMV.

Solution B: Use Super. This is free software that converts video formats. It is very effective, simple and complete.

Personally, I recommend option 2 since we will be using a Mac to read the newly converted video. Now its time to play that video;

Play WMV files on your Mac

Many people always ask me how to play WMV files, i.e. the video format of Windows on a Mac running Mac OS X. So far, the only possible way was to use Windows Media Player for the Mac version of Microsoft's video player, which is pretty damn bad. Different software from the free software world offer a more efficient alternative. Among them, the Mplayer reader which is quite common under Linux, and available in multiple versions among which there is an excellent version for Mac OS X. This software reads Mpeg, Avi, Quicktime, Real, DivX, 3ivx, Ogg, and of course, WMV.
Lots of people may prefer VLC (VideoLan), it is more ergonomic, and also available for different platforms and compatible with multiple audio and video formats, including WMV. Finally, another program, the fantabulous Flip4Mac, once installed, allows you to play WMV files on Quicktime Player. It is now being distributed by Microsoft.

Only problem is, these programs are unable to read WMV3 encoded files with the latest version of Windows Media. In this case, it is better to try with a Windows Media Player for Mac; or, if you are often confronted with this problem, install a Windows emulator such as VirtualPC for Mac, Wintel, Q (adapted from QEMU) or iEmulator. Then and only then will it be possible for you to use your Mac as a Windows PC.

Finally, do not expect miracles with WMV files that are protected by a certificate: they simply can not be played. It is only possible to read when you use a Windows emulator (or a PC with Windows) and accept the proposed certificate.

To take advantage of other video formats, the solution is to install Perian, which presents itself as the "Swiss knife" of codecs for Quicktime. It is a component that, once installed in the Quicktime, Quicktime Player can read AVI, FLV, 3ivx, DivX, Flash Screen Video, MS-MPEG4, Sorenson H.263, VP6 Truemotion and Xvid files. Combined with Filp4Mac, Perian is expected to support a lot of video formats.

NB: you will need to sort out the old components, as shown on the home page of Perian. Finally, some users report compatibility problems when opening a video in Safari. There are online shops that propose excellent software solutions.

7 SEO Tips Relevant Panda Update

7 SEO Tips That Might Be Relevant After The Google Panda Update
Since the 24th February 2011, Google has rolled out its Panda update and this has had some significant impacts on the way SEO have been carried out. The objective of the Panda update, according to Matt Cutts, is to “reduce rankings for low quality sites—sites which are low-value add for users, copy content from other websites or sites that are just not very useful.”
The problem is that there are some genuine sites that offer some really quality content to the community that have been penalized by the Google update. So how do you deal with this algorithm modification? What changes should you make to your SEO strategies then? This is what we will be looking at in this article.
Ads on your sites
It is important that you pay attention to the amount of ads that your site have. According to some experts, there are some qualitative issues that are encompassed in the update and having too much ads on your sites can only hurt your websites ranking.
This is why it might be important that you limit the amount of ads on your websites to make sure that it does not trigger the Panda slap.
Original Content
This one is a no brainer. Content is king on the internet but with the Panda update this has been taken to a new level. It is important that you do not have duplicate content on your site if you want to rank high in the search engines. Forget about auto blogs and other scraping tactics as this will ultimately bring you down the results page.
It is also important that you pay attention to duplicate pages that are created automatically by your CMS and other e-commerce platforms. If this is the case make sure that you use the rel=canonical element in order to handle duplicate content issues.
Legitimate Scrapers
There are some sites that are “legitimate” content scrapers whereby they rely on other sources in order to publish their information. If you fall in this category then it might be important that you add value to their information. Instead of just rehashing the same content you should make sure that you add your own views to it to prevent Google from penalizing your site.
Authoritative Site
If you have a site that is made up of only 5 pages in order to get a few clicks, then you will have to re-consider your strategy. The Panda update is clearly targeting these sites and it might be important that you consider increasing the quality of your site. Adding some few pages regularly with some in-depth information that are really helpful for people will definitely help you deal with the algorithm changes.
In other words you should strive to become an authority on the subject and not stay a mediocre site.
Design and User-Interface
According to Vanessa Fox and Matthew Brown, you should focus on your website design and also on the user-interface in order to provide a great user experience. Make sure that your navigation is clear and that visitors can easily found what they came to look for. Indeed bounce rate can pay a major part in determining your site ranking on the search engines.
Engagement and Sharing
This has mainly to do with social media and how much engagement you can generate for your content. Make sure that it is easy for people to share your content across the various social media sites. You might also consider the addition of a Facebook like button on your site. This is really a breeze with the amount of plugins that exist nowadays.
Build thy brand
It might be important that you improve your brand signals. This is apparently what kept Ehow still up in the rankings after the Google update. A small site can achieve this by getting mentioned in tweets, Facebook shares and other social media sites. This will help raise awareness for their site and ultimately build their brand.
According to many SEO experts the recent Panda update is one of the most important that has been brought out by Google. Not only because of the changes that it has made in the search engines has ranking page but also by the uproar that been created by webmasters that feel that their site has been unjustly penalized. Hopefully the 7 tips listed above might be useful for you to deal with the recent changes in the Google algorithm and help you recover your previous rankings.

Sync iPad with iTunes

2011-05-31T23:31:00.000-07:00

This article is about The Basics Of Syncing Your iPad with iTunes

When you first connect the device to your computer, Apple guides you through the setup, but at some point you will want to be familiar with the options available to you when syncing iTunes on iPad, which is basically the only way you manage most of your iPad’s contents, including music, contacts, photos, apps, and ebooks, and keeping it updated.

This article will give you an overview for syncing your iPad with iTunes. More detailed information can be found in Apple”˜s own free iPad User Guide and similar books. You might also want to check out my MUO article about the general settings of your iPad.

First off, I assume that you have already synced your iPad with iTunes at least once in order to get signed up. That process is required for you to own and use the iPad.
If you’re like me, you probably won’t be syncing your iTunes on your iPad on a regular basis. It’s much better when you can sync and update content wirelessly than having to plug and connect the USB cord between your iPad and your computer. Syncing your iPad to your iTunes is mainly useful for adding songs, TV shows, podcasts, photos and other related content to your device. Some content like purchased iTunes songs, apps, and ebooks for iBook Reader can easily be downloaded wirelessly, via Wi-Fi and 3G connections from the iTunes App Store.

By connecting your iPad to iTunes you get to see all your media content – apps, music files, movies, TV shows, podcasts, etc. One of the first things you can learn, if you have forgotten, is the memory capacity of your iPad. In other words, how much stuff it can hold. The above screenshot shows that my iPad can hold up to 14 gigabytes of content. 64GB is the largest capacity iPad model you can purchase right now.

At the bottom of the information panel is a bar that illustrates a breakdown of content on your iPad. This is very important to know especially if your iPad is filled to capacity. If you’re new to the iPad, I’ll assume you haven’t added a lot of apps to your device. But basically, you will want to keep in mind that songs and videos will take up most of the space on your iPad. Photos, apps, ebooks, and other documents (e.g. PDFs, iWorks documents, other graphic files) tend to take up less space.

In the left panel of the iTunes interface, when you click on the triangle of the iPad folder under Devices, it will reveal all the media files, except for your apps and photos, currently added to your iPad.

Software Update & Backups

Typically when the operating system (OS) of the iPad needs to be updated, it will be checked and done automatically by iTunes via a Wi-Fi connection. But if you have missed an update or you want to make sure that your device has the most recent update, just click the Check for Update button and you will get a report back. A recently released iOS4 for the iPhone is scheduled for the iPad next Fall. But there may be minor updates for the iPad before then.

Each time you sync your iPad with iTunes, it will back up new content, such as new apps and documents, added to your iPad since the previous backup. It will not back up your songs and videos that already stored in your iTunes library.

Depending on the size of the content, backing up and syncing the content of your iPad can take several minutes. If you need to know the last time your content was backed up, you can click Apple>Preferences>Devices.

If you want to keep iTunes from automatically syncing your content when you connect it to iTunes, you can disable it on the Preference box. When disabled you will need to manually sync it by clicking the Sync on the bottom-right of iTunes.
If you want to sync your device to add or delete content without backing up, you can cancel the process by simply clicking the little x in the progress bar at the top of iTunes.

The same can be done if you want to cancel a sync before it's completed.

Restore

If you ever need to restore your iPad to its original state, you simply click the restore button. Official how-to details about restoring your iPad can be found here on the Apple site. The important thing to remember is to periodically allow iTunes to backup the content of your device just in case something happens.

Embed Video Audio on HTML5 Page

2011-05-26T23:48:00.000-07:00

How to Embed Video/Audio on HTML5 Page

In HTML 4.x, the only way to reliably embed video on a web page so that all users can see it regardless of browser or operating system, is to use Flash. This requires the Adobe Flash plug-in and a combination of the <object>and <embed>tags.

In a long time to come, you may have to provide both HTML5 and Flash to be compatible with all web browsers. But you could learn how to embed video/audio in HTML5 now and when the HTML5 time comes, you can switch to it easily. As the proverb goes: Chance favors only the prepared mind.

This article will take a look at what might be the most-hyped part of the HTML 5 specification - the audio and video tags.

Using HTML5 Video Tag

Famous video sharing sites such as YouTube is chomping at the bit to use the HTML5 video tag. It will greatly seize a chunk of web size. Here's the code to embed a video in HTML 5:

Really simple, right? But you will embed video something like below because not every browser can recognize the <video>tag.

</embed>

</object>

</video>

This method lets the browser choose the video or flash to play, with their default video player. So your video will be played in different style player, maybe the Safari style or Chrome style. Another free option is to use the third-party HTML5 video player like VideoJS, FlareVideo, JW Player, etc. Here VideoJS is recommended for it's free, fullscreen, and consistent style in all HTML5 browsers.

Using HTML5 Audio Tag

The code looks very similar to <video>. However, the Mozilla only supports Ogg Vorbis files, while Safari can handle pretty much anything QuickTime can.

Sorry, your browser does not support the <audio>element.

</audio>

Similar to the <video>tag, the same Flash solutions would give you near universal support for today's crop of browsers.

Take Good Photos for Your Kids

2011-05-26T19:07:00.000-07:00

How to Take Good Photos for Your Kids

Well, you may take lots of photos to memory some special occasions like wedding, family reunion, baby born, school sports meeting or graduating; and everyone want to make it perfect photography, so here are some tips on how to take good photos:

The first thing to remember is to keep clicking! You're more likely to get good photos of them if you're taking more photos, and sometimes the cutest photos of them are when they're not looking straight at the camera with a "cheese" smile.

Get down to their level - photos always look better when you're on the same eye level as your kids. So crouch down and get more detail in your photos rather than lots of the tops of their heads.

Use a fast shutter speed if you're using an SLR camera to keep blur at bay - if you're using a point and shoot camera, sometimes using a flash can help if they're running around like little monkeys or you can set your camera to the picture of the running man (sport) on the menu for a faster shutter speed.

Use natural sunshine as your light as much as possible - brings out better colors in the photo and doesn't create the same "sheen" that a flash can create. The best time of day to do this is in the morning and just before sunset as the light is warm rather than harsh and doesn't create a shadow like it will during the middle of the day. Keep your background in mind - you might get the best photo of your children but the background might let the photo down in the end.

For a photo you can blow up of your kids and frame, make sure you don't have undesirable things in the background. Make sure you get in the photos yourself. If you're always the one taking the photos, ask someone else to take the picture for you - you don't want your kids looking over their photos in years to come and not see you as you once were (young and gorgeous!!). If there is no one else to take it, put it on timer and set the photo up... and if all else fails - book a family photo shoot.

Every family should take the time to have at least one professional photo shoot in their lifetime. It not only gives kids something of a keep-sake of their family from their younger years, but it also is a great way to save that time (or that "phase") in life forever. Just remember, you can't get that time back in their lives and it's hard to remember them so small or so cute or pulling certain faces... so get clicking - I'm sure they'll thank you in the future when you can show them what gorgeous little monkey's they used to be.

HTML5 VS Flash

2011-05-24T23:12:00.000-07:00

HTML5 VS Flash, what is your choice?
HTML5's been pitted against Flash as the savior of web video since the release of the iPad, on which you can't play any Flash contents. There are those that suggest that HTML5 will one day supplant/replace Adobe Flash. On that day, you could finally enjoy web video on your iPad (and more mobile devices). I am only a website owner, rather than a programmer. What can I do in this revolution (is it) ? HTML5 is rapidly growing as a new standard of online video technology, and we need to be prepared in advance to accommodate it. It is still early to say that HTML5 will replace Flash totally,Html5 doesn’t provide all the features and functionality that Flash does today, so we’ll have to consider our choices wisely.

HTML5 VS Flash
Before comparing HTML5 to Flash, we need to know what exactly they are, right?
Flash: It's a multimedia platform used to add animation, video, and interactivity to web pages by Adobe (formerly Macromedia Flash). As far as you know, Flash is frequently used for advertisements and games. More recently, it has been positioned as a tool for "Rich Internet Application (RIA) ". Flash is the most widely used content delivery methodology up to date. By the way, The Microsoft counterpart of Flash is SILVERLIGHT.

HTML5: It's the next awaited version of HyperText Markup Language (HTML) which is expected to bring about a radical change in the client side web coding. However, when people refer to HTML5, they usually mean the combination of HTML as a markup language, CSS which specifies how it is rendered, and the javascript code which manipulates the HTML and CSS dynamically.

HTML5 not only has the standard text elements, but also elements which embeds the video and to element to embed the audio, which was brought to web browser by Canvas - a more relevant method compared to Flash. Below is the general Flash to HTML5 comparison.

Why choose Flash
Good to great web presentation
Excellent Flash player penetration
Browser independent
AS3 is a strong typed language

Why choose HTML5
Doesn't require a plug-in
The best bet for animated content on mobile devices
Fast bitmap rendering
Fast JavaScript render speed
Great open source initiatives trying to push Canvas further

HTML5 Will Beat Flash, But Not Now.
So, there are both advantages and disadvantages of HTML5 and Flash. But in my opinion, HTML5 improves interoperability and reduces development costs by making precise rules on how to handle all HTML elements, and how to recover from errors. It has more opportunities to win the war. HTML5 will replace Flash and Silverlight eventually, maybe 5 years, maybe 10 years. Do note that both Adobe and Microsoft are giants, you don't know what they will do to affect the result. Only one thing is sure: HTML5 and Flash will go together for a long time to come.Flash is offering value to a lot of people and will not disappear overnight.

Now stay far away from the debate of replacement of HTML5 to Flash. You need to move your business on. But the situation is now or will be like this: Many people use the web browsers that don't support HTML5 like Internet Explorer 6,7,8, while others have upgraded their browsers to which well support HTML5. How would you do?

The mix solution like HTML5 video player seems to be unavoidable. And keep your eyes on HTML5 is also necessary.

The whole editing process is visualization By Adobe Reader, for example, you can replace the original contents, crop images and insert links and any other elements necessarily. The bookmarks also could be created by the edited documents.

Type 3: PDF Conversion Software
When talking about editing PDF, we inevitably image that PDF editor would be the best and direct choice. But things not always like that. We need to notice that PDF editor, that we could use, are not the real editing functions. We just cover the contents on the original text or images. The efficiency is low and it is not easy to master it. Besides, they are always very expensive.

The best way, which works perfect for me, is using PDF conversion Software, like AnyBizSoft PDF to Word Converter, by which we can convert PDF to word and editing the contents easily in Word processor with high efficiency. It can preserve all the original text, layouts, hyperlinks and graphics in Word documents.

How to use Zamzar to convert PDF to Word

I have introduced Zamzar.com on one of my previous post named commonly used PDF Converters and Creators. Here I would show the details about the service of Zamzar and, particularity of how to convert documents from PDF format to word format.

When landing on the website Zamzar.com, we would find that it provides four free services for online users. They are “convert files” “download videos” “send files” and “Manage files”. Which are useful if we have simple requirements about document conversion and video downloading? Here I would put the emphasis on the file conversion, saying “how to convert PDF to word”

Firstly, let us have a glance about the operating panel.

We can clearly see that the conversion steps have been divided into four. And here are what you need to do.

Step 1: Select the file you want to convert. There are two ways: you can upload your PDF files from you local files or input a address which locates the PDF file. Once you can only upload one file and the size should be less than 100MB, and as the larger of the size, as the time consuming of loading would be longer.

Step 2: Choose the format. Actually, there are some other formats for us to choose if needed. Here I just take Word doc format for instance.

Step 3: Enter your email address for converted file receiving. When the file is converted, the system would send you a email with attachment which include the converted Word documents.

Step 4: Click “convert” button and then have a cup of coffee and the system would do the rest for you.

The service is useful but it has some disadvantages:
1. It would be not safe to upload secret PDF files to the server.
2. It can only convert one file at a time.
3. It depends on your speed on the Internet.

Easy Tips To Build Websites

2011-04-29T03:33:00.000-07:00

Start to Make Your Own Website
There are billions of websites on the internet, and the one thing they all have in common is to present information. The content of their presentations may include text, images, sounds, flash slideshow and other content.
Web design is not an easy task, before creating and uploading a website, it is important to take the time to consider thoroughly what you need to do for building a website.

What You'll Need to Make a Website

Web hosting:

Hosting is where you put your website and Web pages. Everyone is able to see them online. So the first thing you need to do is to find a Web hosting provider.
There are several types of Web hosting options you can choose from:

Free Web hosts
Standard Web hosting
Dedicated, Virtual, and Shared Hosting
Colocation

Most people gravitate to free Web hosting without too much thought, but there can be drawbacks to free hosting. You don't always get as much space, you might be required to run their ads on your site, or there may be bandwidth limits. Be sure that all those points are nothing to you before putting your website on a free Web host.

Domain Name:

You don't need a domain name to put up a website. You can put up a site on free hosting or even paid hosting plans without a domain name. A domain name provides extra branding for your site and makes it easier for people to remember the URL. But domain names cost money, typically between $8 and $35 a year.

Website Planning:

Once you've gotten a domain and decided on your URL, you can start planning your site. You need to decide:

Types of site - Most websites are either news/information, product, or reference sites. As such they each have a slightly different focus.
Navigation - The navigation affects the information architecture of your site.
Content- Content is the actual pages you'll be building.

If you can recognize page types, you'll be able to recognize what types of pages you need for your site.

Web Pages building:

You need to build a website page by page. Firstly you should be familiar with:

Design Basics - The elements of good design and how to use it on websites.
Learning HTML - HTML is the building block of a Web page. While it's not absolutely required, you'll do better if you learn HTML than if you don't.
Learning CSS - CSS is the building block of how pages look. And learning CSS will make it easier for you to change your site's look when you need to.
Web Page Editors -Finding the perfect editor for your needs will help you learn design, HTML, and CSS.

Website Publishing:

Publishing your website is a matter of getting the pages you created up to the hosting provider. You can do this with either the tools that come with your hosting service or with FTP clients. Knowing which you can use depends upon your hosting provider. Contact them if you are not sure.

Website Promotion:

The easiest way to promote your website is through search engine optimization. You build your Web content so that it ranks well in search engines. This can be very difficult, but it is inexpensive and can result in good results if you work at it. Other ways to promote your site include: word of mouth, email, and advertising. You should include your URL on all professional correspondence and whenever it makes sense in personal messages. I put my URL in my email signature along with my email address.

Website Maintenance:

Maintenance can be the most boring part of website design, but in order to keep your site going well and looking good, you need to do it. Testing your site as you're building it and then after it's been live for a while is important. And you should also work on content development on a regular basis.
And that's it! Hope the steps above can help you a lot to make or design your website.

How to Make a Web Page

2010-09-28T02:16:00.000-07:00

A website consists of several Web pages, which are linked together. Before you build your own website, you need to know how to make a web page at first.
Here we'll introduce three ways to build a web page, no matter whether you have HTML knowledge or not, please read on...

Hand-code HTML Web pages in a text editor like Notepad:

Make a Web page using the language called HTML. HTML is not hard to learn. A HTML Web page consists of the page's text surrounded by various HTML tags for structuring and formatting the page. For example, you surround the text with <p> and </p> tags to create a paragraph of text:

<p> Here is a paragraph of text </p>

You can make your HTML Web pages with a text editor like Notepad, that means you type in the HTML code yourself. It is the best way because you have the most control over what you're doing.
HTML is fairly simple, and it's a good idea to learn at least a few basic tags. However if you don't have a plan to build your Web pages by typing HTML by hand, then there are some good alternatives:

Build Web pages without HTML knowledge

Use a pre-made template: WHAT IS A WEB DESIGN TEMPLATE?

A web site design template is a pre-made website design template which can be customized to reflect your company's branding. Website design templates can be found in various formats like Photoshop and HTML. Many times, these templates are compatible with HTML editors like GoLive, FrontPage, and Dreamweaver.
Web site templates can be very useful, they can be used by experienced web designers to 'jump-start' the creation of a website. They are also a way for people to put out great-looking web sites quickly with little or no knowledge of HTML and web design.

Use an HTML editor like FrontPage or Dreamweaver

HTML editors make building web pages feel like (to a certain extent) creating a document in Microsoft Word ... it's made pretty easy. But the downside is that you lose a certain amount of control of what you're doing and in some cases become dependent on the program.

Birthday Invitation Card Wording Tips

Add unique and memorable invitation wordings to make your birthday card special. It's hard to look for innovative birthday invitation wordings, but following information could be included for the best.

Don't forget the date of the birthday party and the time at which you want your guests to be at the venue.
Don't forget the venue of the birthday party and if necessary provide directions or a small map.
If it is a themed party, mention precisely about the planned dress code and props.

Usually, select the correct orientation and make perfect layout, then you could proceed to printing birthday invitation cards. To print multiple invitation cards on one paper, you could select as many as 9 invitation cards in the layout. In some situations, margins could come out. If so, select the last layout method and change the width and height to 29.7 and 21.0 for Landscape orientation (first one). Your baby's first birthday invitation cards would always be impressive.

Advice on Wedding Invitation Wording

Follow these simple steps for writing your wedding invitations:

Who is Hosting of the Wedding?

The first names your guests will see on your wedding invitation are those of the people who are paying for the event. Traditionally, this has been the bride's parents, and so it reads:

Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Beazley ,

or

Kate and Marvin Beazley

If the bride and groom are hosting, then the line reads:
Ms. Jane Doe and Mr. Sam Smith

Or

Together with their families,

Jane Doe and Sam Smith

The Request to Wedding Ceremony

The next line in a wedding invitation is the one that requests that your guests attend.
If your ceremony is at a place of worship, then the line should read:
Request the honor of your presence
at the marriage of their daughter
Note the formal British spelling of the word "honor." The word daughter is used as an example and should be the gender of the person whose parents are hosting. If, on the other hand your ceremony is at home or other secular location, then the line should read:
Request the pleasure of your company
at the marriage of their daughter
or
would be delighted for you to attend
the marriage of their daughter

If the couple is hosting:
invite you to join us at the celebration of our marriage

The Happy Couple

Etiquette says that the bride should be listed first, using first and middle names only. Then the groom should be listed, using both title and middle name. So for example:
Nora Jane
to
Mr. Scott Andrew Jackson

A more modern alternative is simply,

Nora Beazley
to Scott Jackson
Some couples, especially Jewish couples, may choose to use and instead of to.

Date and Time in Invitation Cards

Traditionally, these are spelled out:
Saturday, the tenth of June
two thousand and six
at four o'clock in the afternoon
note that the month and day are capitalized. If it were a 4:30 ceremony, the time would read at half after four o'clock in the afternoon. But you can also write
Saturday, June 10, 2006
at 4 p.m.

The Location

If the ceremony is at a well known location, you needn't include the address
The Museum of Fine Arts
Houston, Texas
but for smaller locations, or your home, you'd want to write out the address.
The Art Club
49 Marquis Road
Blair, Utah

Time for the Reception

Let your guests know there is going to be a party. This can either be included on the wedding invitation or on a separate reply card. On the wedding invitation, it would read
Reception to follow at the Briar Hills Country Club
If you're not serving a full meal, it is nice to let guests know. You might write:
And afterwards for cocktails and cake in the Rose Room.
Or
Dessert and dancing to follow
A separate reception card is often good to use if the ceremony and reception are in different places, or the reception doesn't immediately follow the ceremony. It might read something like
Reception
8 o'clock
Parker Grand Hotel
342 Allen Road
Pike, Oregon

Get Them to RSVP

Traditionally, R.S.V.P. was written on the invitation, and guests knew to reply on their own stationary. Now, most couples find that they get responses more promptly if they include a separate reply card.
This can be mostly blank, allowing guests to write a note, with a line such as:

The favor of a reply is requested before the first of June

Or it can be more detailed, such as
Please reply before the first of June
M___________________________
_________Will attend
_________Will not attend

You might also write:

Number of people in party_____

Optional details

Optional details include telling your guests what to wear. Strictest etiquette tells you not to include information about attire on your invitation, but I think this is an outdated opinion. Guests appreciate clues about how to dress, and are not as instinctively knowledgeable as they used to be. To avoid someone showing up in blue jeans, include a line such as: Black Tie
Other options: Semi-formal, cocktail attire, festive attire, creative black tie, white tie, black tie optional, dressy casual, informal.

Why Flash Won’t Be Going Anywhere

Flash is also compatible in all browsers—a HUGE advantage over HTML5. Many companies are concerned about reaching their audience, not using the latest web code upgrade.
An advantage CNET points out is that, “Flash video can use a variety of “codecs” for encoding and decoding video as it’s sent from server to viewer. Viewers don’t need to know anything beyond how to click a video’s “play” button, a contrast to Net video’s incompatibility-fraught early days. But with HTML5, though, there are two prevailing codecs right now: H.264, supported by Apple’s Safari and Google’s Chrome, and Ogg Theora, supported by Firefox, Chrome, and, according to plan, Opera. IE, the dominant browser doesn’t support any at HTML5 video at present.”
Companies that rival Apple are also jumping at the bit to make devices to rival the iPad, iPod Touch and iPhone. Motorola for example, is taking a stab into the tablet industry and creating their own tablet device (with the help of Verizon). Motorola has decided it will “be access to Verizon’s FiOS cable service and support Adobe Flash, a platform of choice for more than 90 percent of web videos,” according to the International Business Times.
With more and more companies wanting to rival Apple in these verticals, it will make Flash more appealing for other companies to embrace. That is the great thing about being on the other side of the debate—other companies will embrace the Flash technology to market against Apple’s products.
It isn’t an issue of who is going to move forward in the debate, but what platform works best for your clients. Right now Flash is more compatible with the many different browsers, but HTML5 will catch up eventually. Flash may also deliver better images and quality video, but HTML5 can do a lot, and doesn’t need expensive software to do so. In the end I think a hybrid of the two will be what web designers will be using. Some clients will be Flash crazy, while others will favor HTML5 in the future.
The point is that Flash, which hasn’t had a real competitor, will eventually have one with HTML5. This just means Adobe is going to have to step up their game to deliver better quality results than HTML5 or it is going to lose clients. People can be on team Adobe or team Apple, but it is going to come down to who can render the best results over multiple platforms at a low cost. End of story. The business model isn’t changing, Adobe is just getting a competitor.
It is far too early for HTML5 to be a viable competitor, but in a few years from now we could be seeing it catch fast. You don’t have to take Steve Job’s rigid stance on the subject, but instead have a more open ended approach. Decide what works best on a case by case situation. Does your client need a fast loading time? Are they implementing too many videos onto the site? Do their visitors use a HTML5 compatible browser? All of these are points you need to consider before using HTML5. In the future browser compatibility will be a non-issue and level the playing ground.

Slideshows In Web Design: When To Use Them

2010-06-27T20:21:00.000-07:00

Slideshows or carousels are becoming more and more popular in modern web designs. Carousels are essentially slideshow navigations, in which the content rotates vertically or horizontally (hence the name “carousel”). To rotate the navigation, users need to click on one of two toggle elements (usually a left/right or up/down arrow). Depending on the toggle element selected, the content is rotated in the desired direction.

Instead of clicking through various sections of the website for their favorite stories, users can quickly skim through the available stories without vertical scrolling or unnecessary mouse movements. The result: users save time, and the carousel focuses their attention sharply on the content, instead of on interacting with the browser. Such slideshow navigation is often used on entertainment websites and big blogs, but designers also make use of it in their portfolios to showcase their work in a more interactive way.

Let’s take a look at some common places where the sliders are often used.

1. Portfolios
When designing a portfolio, there are many different ways to organize your projects. One good way is to use a slider. Using a slideshow to showcase different images from a single project is even more common. Some websites will use it to slide through each project, and each slide brings you to a more detailed description of the project.

2. Slider of Information
Sliders are very popular on home pages of corporate websites. They are very useful for showing important information about a company. Generally, corporations will include an explanation of what the company does, a brief preview of the products, an explanation of what sets their products apart, and many further user options.
Take a look below at the excellent use of the slider technique on Mint.com. This home page slider contains information explaining Mint and what you can do with the service. Also included are graphics, which provide a nice visual to back up the information. This is a very good use of the slider and is extremely convenient for new users on Mint looking to learn more quickly.

3. Featured Blog Posts
Many blogs use slider galleries to feature top posts. It is a great way to show many top posts and not take up too much space. By fitting numerous featured posts into a smaller element, you are allowing more space for other content.

Top Five Worst Mother’s Day Gifts

2010-05-04T20:04:00.000-07:00

Mother’s Day is just around the corner so I thought it would helpful to all you people with moms if I gave a quick rundown of what not to get her for that day in honor of her. I’m not talking about macaroni necklaces or hand made cards( Mother's Day Photo Collage Giveaway )
After extensive research (okay, I asked everyone on Facebook and Twitter) I compiled a list of the top five worst ever gifts that women have received for Mother’s Day. If you have already purchased one of these gifts you have time to take it back and get something she might really like. Who am I kidding? I’ve been to Walgreens on Mother’s Day morning. You can’t walk through the card aisle because of all the men searching hopelessly for cards.
The Top Five Mother’s Day Gifts (Don’t get these)
1. The You’re-Not-My-Mom non gift.
Men who make the mistake of giving this gift usually only give it once. They are so scarred from the after effects of giving this gift that it never happens again. If you have managed to receive this gift and remained married, most gifts following this one are pretty good. Guys, you are right, she isn’t your mother. She is just the woman who gave birth to your child. Cut the apron strings and get with the program.
2. Anything Automotive
Women don’t want new wiper blades and they certainly don’t want a pair of fuzzy dice, even if you found them in pink. Same goes for a new set of tires or an oil change. You should be doing these things for her anyway. The only acceptable automotive gift for a woman on Mother’s Day is a Mercedes CL65 AMG. If this is in your price range, by all means, go automotive.
3. Household Appliances
This seems to be the most popular gift and yet it is so wrong. Guys, I know you are trying to help her by getting something, anything, that might lessen her workload. It is a nice gesture but it says to the woman that you think she could do a better job cleaning if she just had the right tools. And maybe she could. If your house is filled with dust bunnies and you can’t find the dog then get her a male servant named Sven. There is one exception, besides Sven, to the no household appliances rule.
4. Cook Books/Diet Books
Because nothing says “I love you” like How to Lose 30 lbs in 30 Days or Go Make Me a Sandwich. Listen, books are great, and if you can give her an hour of peace so she can actually read the book I say go for it. Better yet, get a gift certificate to a local online bookstore so she can order what she wants. In fact get her a Kindle or an iPad so she can easily download the books she wants when she wants them. Just don’t imply that she needs to lose some baby fat or her cooking skills need a little work. You can do that some other day.
5. The Homemade Gift Certificate/Coupon Book
These are very popular gifts for Mother’s Day. However, they scream that you forgot all about Mother’s Day and threw something together at the last minute. The intent is great, you will do the dishes each night for a month, back rubs on demand, taking the kids to the park for an hour each week. We’ve all received these at one time or another. The problem is there is no follow through. There has never been any evidence in recorded history of a woman being able to successfully redeem these coupons. Skip this one unless you can gift wrap Sven.
Guys, you still have time to make this the best Mother’s Day ever. I’ve given you plenty of perfectly acceptable gift ideas that won’t get you time in the doghouse. And remember, Father’s Day follows Mother’s Day for a reason.

change text flash

2010-03-25T02:00:00.000-07:00

How to change text direction in Flash CS
Everyone knows you can type horizontal text in Flash CS4, but did you know you can change the direction of the text to vertical. You can change the direction of the text without using the transform tool, or repeatedly pressing the enter key to form a vertical line.

Firstly, you need to select the Text tool (T) then locate the ‘Paragraph’ section on the properties panel. If you can see the properties panel, select Window > Properties (Ctrl + F3).

Now select the ‘orientation’ button as shown above. You can either select the vertical left to right, or the vertical right to left. Both of these options set the text vertical, but change the reading point of view as shown below. As you can see below the ‘vertical left to right’ expands the text field to the right. While the ‘vertical right to left’ expand the text field to the left. This is a great feature for people using different languages because you can easily change the character flow from left to right.

The orientation button also lets you switch between horizontal and vertical text which avoids you having to manually edit the text. You can change the default text setting to vertical in the Flash preferences by choosing Edit > Preferences > Text then checking the ‘Default text orientation’ box. You also have the option of change the text work flow and disabling the kerning.

General tools to create a web flash presentation:: 1. Adobe Flash; 2. Flash slideshow maker

Making car flash slideshow animation with Adobe Flash:

Adobe Flash seems like a complex program to learn. One reason for this is that you can use it for so many different things, such as cartoon animations, media players, and sophisticated software.
Step 1
First, save the car photo below that we will use for this lesson as background.

Step 2
Create a new flash document. Press Ctrl+J key on the keyboard (Document Properties) and set the width of your document to 440 pixels and the height to 283 pixels. Select any color as background color. Set your Flash movie's frame rate to 33 and click ok.

flash embedded in html

2010-02-26T01:18:00.000-08:00

Flash Embedded in HTML
After creating a Flash Album you need to embed the Flash movie into an HTML page, you should go back to your Flash program and do the following steps:
Open the HTML page where you want to insert your Html Photo Gallery. Insert this code:

Note: This is the minimum code you need to embed a Flash movie in a browser. A broken icon will appear on the Web page if the user does not have the Flash plug-in installed.

Note: In the code above there is both an <embed> tag and an <object> tag. This is because the <object> tag is recognized by Internet Explorer, and Netscape recognizes the <embed> tag and ignores the <object> tag.

Step 5
Type in the address of the HTML file in your browser and look at your first Flash movie.

Let the Flash Slideshow Maker do the Work

The code above is the absolute minimum code to embed Flash movies in HTML pages. It is not recommended to use the minimum code. There should be a few more attributes added:

classid is an attribute to the <object> tag. It tells Internet Explorer to load the ActiveX plug-in if it is not installed
pluginspage is an attribute to the <embed> tag. It displays a link to the Shockwave download page if Netscape does not have it

The Flash program can add these attributes for you:

Step 1
Flash Image Scroller will create the <object>, <param>, and <embed> tags for you. It will also create the classid and pluginspage attributes.

Step 2
Open the HTML document that Flash created, view the HTML source and copy the code into your HTML page where you want your Flash movie.

Step 3
Be sure that you have the "somefilename.swf" in your Web folder.

Step 4
Type in the address of the HTML file in your browser and look at your first Flash movie.

How to create a favicon ico file
Favicon is short for 'Favorite Icon.' A Favicon is a multi-resolution image included on nearly all professional developed sites. In most browsers the Favicon ICO file is displayed on the Address line, in the Favorites menu or next to the page title in a tabbed document browsing. The Favicon allows the webmaster to give a personal touch to their website, and to create a more customized appearance within a visitor's browser. Often, the Favicon reflects the look and feel of the web site or the organization's logo matching its colors and general feel.
Every webmaster should always create favicons for everysite they are building. It is consider an act of professionalism and it also gives a personal touch to one's website.

The favicon file is very small in size (16x16 pixels) and should contain some small text or image. Webmasters usualy use the website's logo or its main name.

To start of I am going to present several ways in witch one can create favicons.

Easy to use on-line favicon generator

In my search for a favicon generator I found several ways/methods of building/creating one. The fastest one is building a text favicon.

This website antifavicon offers a really nice and fast way for creating a really simple favicon. You only need to enter small text, chose your colors and the software creates your favicon on the fly. This is one route you can use and it is very fast and easy to use.

Create a favicon using your favorite graphics software

Lets asume you want to make your favicon special and not use the online generation tool.

All you need to do is fire up your favorite graphics software and start working.

Remember the favicon is really small, only 16x16pixels, and i dont think anyone can decently create something on that size. So to make things a bit easy you should start of by creating a document lets say 64x64pixels. I am using 64 becouse its a multiple of 16. You should work with whatever size your are comfterbul with, but that has to be a multiple of 16. Now that you have created your main image for the favicon you should scale it down to 16x16 px. If that doesnt look good (ie. blurry) you should go back, edit and size down again.

Now you should save your file in a PNG format. Just chose File>Save As and then selected the PNG format from the extensions list.

If you are using Photoshop in creating the favicon you must know that there is a special plugin that allows you to save files in direct ICO format from Photoshop; download the plugin.

Be advised that for this to work you have to load the plugin into Photoshop, restart it and then open the file you just created and save it in the ICO format naming it favicon.ico

Convert image to ICO format online

For all i know you could also be using Paint to create your favicon so lets asume you dont have Photoshop and the special plugin. There are a bunch of online tools that let you upload a PNG file and convert it to a ICO file.

Icon sushi is an online image to icon converter that supports the mask editor and the creation of Windows XP 32bit/Windows Vista format icons. It can also convert icon files to image files if anyone finds that helpfull.

Convert image to ICO format with software

If for exampe you need more control over the way your files are converted you should install proper software that those the converting onsite and you can manage it more accurately.

I have compiled a small list of the most popular and used software applications used for creating a FAVICON.

IrfanView is a very fast, small, compact and innovative FREEWARE (for non-commercial use) graphic viewer for Windows.

MovieGear is also used for creating animated GIF files that can also translate to animated FAVICONs.

How to use a favicon in your site

Now that you have created your final favicon.ico file you should add it to your sites functionality.

The original way of defining a favicon was by placing it in the root directory of your site. Later a more flexible system was created, using HTML, it is now possible to indicate the location of an icon for any given page. This is achieved using the link element in <head> the section of the document.

Convert image to swf flash with flash slideshow maker

In this way, any appropriately sized (16×16 pixels or larger) image can be used, and although many still use the .ico format, other browsers now also support the GIF and PNG image formats.

So now all you have to do is upload the favicon.ico file on your webserver and add the HTML code posted up in the <head> section of your site. Note that you could also use PNG or GIF formats for your favicon but ICO is a standard format accepted by all browsers. Also note that you can also specify the location of the favicon but the standard is keeping it in your website root directory.
By the same time, you could also create flash photo gallery, 3D flash gallery, flash banner, flash album and upload it to MySpace, Blogger, LiveSpace, WorldPress, LiveJournal, and all social websites and blogs with Flash gallery software which support output swf or xml files.
To embed the Flash SWF to your Blogger post,just copy the following code to any of the sections in your blogger post, which you could get from the last step easily.

How to spend a safe Halloween

2009-10-16T00:50:00.000-07:00

It's October! The countdown is on and Halloween will fall on the best of days, Saturday. So this is the year to go all out with your decorating and to host a super Halloween party!

Halloween is one of the most exciting times of the year for children, but sometimes the most hectic for parents. Nearly 94 percent of children between the ages of four and twelve participate in Halloween activities each year. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) reminds parents to take a moment to consider basic safety precautions that will make Halloween a safer night of fun.

1. CHOOSE bright, flame-retardant costumes or add reflective tape to costumes and candy bags so children are easily seen in the dark. In addition, carry a glow stick or flashlight.

2. PLAN a trick-or-treating route in familiar neighborhoods with well-lit streets. Avoid unfamiliar neighborhoods, streets that are isolated, or homes that are poorly lit inside or outside.

3. NEVER send young children out alone. They should always be accompanied by a parent or another trusted adult. Older children should always travel in groups.

4. ALWAYS walk younger children to the door to receive treats and don't let children enter a home unless you are with them.

5. BE SURE children do not approach any vehicle, occupied or not, unless you are with them.

6. DISCUSS basic pedestrian safety rules that children should use when walking to and from houses.

7. CONSIDER organizing a home or community party as an alternative to "trick-or-treating."

8. MAKE sure children know their home phone number and address in case you get separated. Teach children how to call 911 in an emergency.

9. TEACH children to say "NO!" or "this is not my mother/father" in a loud voice if someone tries to get them to go somewhere, accept anything other than a treat, or leave with them. And teach them that they should make every effort to get away by kicking, screaming and resisting.

10. REMIND children to remain alert and report suspicious incidents to parents and/or law enforcement.

"Child safety is important year round, but Halloween is an especially important time for parents and children to pay extra attention to their surroundings and not let their guard down," said Nancy McBride, National Safety Director of NCMEC. "It is important that parents exercise a few basic safety precautions to help ensure that Halloween is both fun and safe."

Take best wedding photography to make wedding slideshow

2009-09-28T19:17:00.000-07:00

Have you ever been asked to take photos for a wedding? For some, wedding photography is a casual affair. Take a point-and-shoot camera, then snap away when the opportunity arises. For others, it’s a serious, full-fledged business.

This article will teach you how to take better wedding photos and then make engaging wedding slideshow with your wedding photographies and upload on website for sharing with more people.

Take a look at the wedding slideshow sample first below and get inspired.

Preparation
One of the most critical elements in being a successful wedding photographer is preparation. You absolutely need to prepare ahead (at least 2 months’ ahead) of time. Get to know the bride and the groom, understand their needs and wants. Some good questions to ask are:

How many photographers will there be?
What type of photos would they like? Mostly formal group portraits? Or mostly candid shots of the couple?
How many guests will there be at the wedding? Are they mostly family members or friends?
Which locations will be used at the wedding? A church? Will there be a reception or a dinner?

Asking pertinent questions like these will help you understand the requirements for the wedding photos and thereby take better shots.

Locations, Events and Times
Once you’ve understood what the wedding locations, events and times are, find some time to go scout around those places.

For a church wedding, I usually like to go inside the church to check out the lighting, décor and environment. I try to find the correct places to position myself so I don’t mess up during the wedding day. Do take note that some churches do not allow flash photography during the wedding ceremony. So you may need to get a fast lens.
It’s also important to check out places like the reception area, or the podium where the speech will be made. If there will be a wedding dance, then check out the dance floor and the seating arrangement if possible.

Organize Your Gear
This is a critical step. I usually prepare 1 month ahead of the wedding date just to be sure I have time to get any equipment I’ve missed out. Here’s a list of critical equipment to bring for the wedding day shoot:

Digital camera: This one is obvious. It’s good to have a backup analog camera as well, just in case.
Camera Lenses and filters: Take along any special lenses or filters you want to use.
Tripod: Another critical piece of equipment, important for indoor shots under low light.
Memory cards: Bring at least two 1 GB cards. I’m not kidding – you won’t believe how many shots you’ll take during a wedding.
Portable drive: This is critical in case you run out of space on those memory cards.
Assistant: Try to bring along an assistant. It could be a friend or a help at the wedding. He or she can help you arrange the group before you take photos, taking a lot of stress off you.

On the Wedding Day
Ok, let’s assume the actual wedding day, has arrived. Here’s a typical sequence of events to help guide you on the wedding photography process.

At the House
If you’re taking shots of the bride getting ready, please be early. In fact, you should be one of the earliest to arrive so that you can set up your positions, tripods or whatever equipment you need to use.

At the Church
Once you’re at the church, find out where the priest will be standing. Position yourself in an appropriate position. Some critical locations where wedding photos must be taken include the entrance to church, the aisle and the place where the couple will stand.
And here’s another tip – it’s important not to get too excited about your shots so early on the wedding day. Remember, you have a long day for taking photos. I once did a wedding where I snapped so many photos at the church entrance, I nearly ran out of memory card space by the time the couple exchanged vows!
If there happens to be a church reception, make sure you’re out to the reception area faster than the rest of the guests, and perch yourself in the correct position. Receptions are a good time to capture candid and fun shots, so knock yourself out.

Formal Group Shots
If there are any formal group shots to be taken, be sure your assistant is there to help you. Try to start with the big groups, then slowly remove family members so that you can get the various combinations of family and friends required.

Cleaning up
What do you do after shooting the wedding photos? Well, plenty! You need to do some basic image editing, like removing red eye, cropping and rotating. You also need to burn the photos into CDs and DVDs, (usually in a slideshow format). If you’re in the wedding photography business, you should know that you cannot delay this step. Try to get the CD or DVD final package out to the happy couple as soon as you can.

Conclusion
Whew! That’s a lot of information about wedding photography. Do remember that while wedding photos are challenging to take, they can be very rewarding. Especially when you see the couple smiling and reminiscing about how wonderful their wedding day was. Try to keep the above tips in mind the next time you’re shooting wedding photos.

Flash Slideshow Software

2009-09-28T18:56:00.000-07:00

Most of my weekend I was spent laboriously cating and consolidating my digital photo collection over the last 8 years. You would think that my nack for organization would have payed off in this area, but you’d be wrong. ;) It took combing through 4 old hard drives, multiple Ghost images, an Iomega Peerless Drive, and a Terapin Mine to consolidate my photos since 2000. I now have close to all of my 3,000 photos and videos accounted for.
I love software like Picasa for managing my photo collections and albums. However, I’m looking for something that can be easily viewed over the web. My thought was to use some simple flash-based photo/slideshow viewer to embed directly into the wiki. I’ve been collecting links for some flash-based slideshow applications and figured I’d give them a whirl. Here are the major ones that I’m aware of:
Flash slideshow maker - A wonderful photo slideshow maker which include 75+ slideshow templates and 220+ transition & Pan/Zoom effects. Enable you to add flash slideshow on website.
SlideShowPro - This application stuck me as quite impressive. The interface is visually appealing, Very nice! I decided to experiment with this one and see if it suits my needs.
WorldMap/TripperMap - This blew me away when I first saw it. Slideshows with Map integration. TripperMap supports FlickR right now, but support for other images sources is being developed.

Amazing India Travel-Slide Show

2009-07-02T02:43:00.001-07:00

Louise and I, Stuart Sims, spend 3 months out of ever year in India.
India is the ultimate travel experience. And once one falls in love with India one does not have the slightest desire to go anywhere else.. Sure I still want to see Egypt and Istanbul, but having traveled to India for 3 months each year for many years now. I always get the itch during the rest of the year when I am not in India.
There is no flora and fauna like India's.
There is no topography like India's (from pristine beaches all the way to, and in between, up to the Himalayas).
There are no cities as wild and exciting as those in India.
There is no diversity of cultures in any country that can match India's.
There is no more spectacular and diverse Architecture than India's.
There is no tolerance like the tolerance of India.
But most importantly there are NO people on the planet that can match the kindness, warmth, genuine concern, interest in foreigners, and "Chanti' of the India people. They are as close to divine as you will find on this miserable globe!
One does not go to India like one goes to the Bahamas, one goes to India to find the inner self and strength, along with everything else.. At times, one wants to pull one's hair out and then Mother India says here, "I have a gift for you". Then one is transported to another realm.

Go to India and never return! (At least a month for your mind to turn away from your Western value system and begin to see the wisdom of India's ethos).
