If you’re serious about exposure & colour balance in your photographs, you must use an ?18% Grey Card?.

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is one of the most popular image format used over the web - most of the graphics designers uses png format for designing logo of a website or in computer artwork (because PNG is more suitable for computer generated images). Optimizing image is a good practice in modern web development/work because it will allow the pages to load much faster due to reduced image size. Google also recommends all web masters to use optimized images for faster loading of pages and you may already know that SPEED is one of the most important thing to consider while designing a website or a web application. Save for Web allows to find compromises between minimal file size and acceptable quality of images quickly. While adjusting various settings, you may explore how image quality and file size change. Options to reduce file size of an image include setting compression quality, number or colors, resizing, cropping, Exif information removal, etc. You can find the plugin i ...

Becoming a 'proper' fisherman?

I spent the summer of 1983 trying to learn to fish…properly, mainly on my own and mainly for chub, my apprenticeship for gudgeon had passed. There was a favourite deep run on the Sussex Ouse just a few hundred yards from the Ardingly road which I named chub corner and this was where most of my success came from. I spent a lot of time there with my Walkman listening to one song in particular on a loop just like teenagers do! Afterwards I would lie on the river bank and take in the summer sun, even then I knew these were cherished times. On my return to school that september one of my science classes was shared with a guy called Mark who always brought a copy of Anglers Mail in on a Wednesday and due to the old style science lab benches (the ones with the gas taps that you could simply switch on at anytime and gas out the whole class) we could secretly read each copy on our laps, undetected by our teacher. At that time Anglers Mail were running a series of extracts from Pe ...

Batch Resizing With GIMP

Batch resizing of images is probably something I haven’t needed to do in about 10 years. Since my copy of Photoshop 5.5 is unresponsive, I checked out GIMP and David’s Batch Processor plugin (DBP). It’s so good is’t self-explanatory — I was underway. But I created this stub in case I wanted to expand ( — really no need to…)

Choices, Choices

Well, it is that time again: time to narrow down the choices for this semester’s FOSS project. Last semester, in CSCI362 (Software Engineering) we did this same activity, but then I was young and foolish, and did not fully understand the implications of narrowing down and ranking projects. Now, I know better. I know that whatever project we ultimately pick will play a major part in the next three months of my life. I will see its source code in my sleep; its E/R and UML diagrams will haunt me. I will find myself questioning the direction of our society at 3 am, wondering how it could possibly be that an internet search of “Kim Kardashian” could return 142,000,00 results in .17 seconds, when an error message from my FOSS project could return nothing. Nothing! Now I am wiser. I have learned from my mistakes and now fully realize the importance of things like documentation, a widely-used form of communication between developers, and well-written code. Armed wi ...

Free Programs That Can Make Your Life Easier

Everyday I come across tons of free programs that can definitely make your life easier if you have the patience to learn how to use them. Having a computer background I often wonder how easy these programs would actually be for someone who might not have the time to learn an extensive program with a lot of bells and whistles. I came across 2 that are very easy to use right away but offer tons of great features that you can discover at your own pace. Open Office This program is like a free version of Microsoft Office with all the same features that you would pay hundreds of dollars for. You can create documents, spreadsheets and presentations very quickly. I tried this one out a couple of months ago because I wanted a doc editing program for my laptop that I could use on the go. Without reading any of the tutorials I was able to create a document in about 5 minutes and save it into my docs folder. I don’t use spreadsheets very often but I was able to create a simple tabl ...
