Any idea how this was done?

Hi everyone,
Just seen this site http://www.web4half.com/
I really love the way the gray background has moment to it and would love to do something similar.
Does anyone know either; how this is done? or can things like this be bought and used in Flash?
Many thanks, P

Any tutorials on this you could suggest?
Thank you.

As Léonie wrote Aperture can add a watermark file to an image on export but I find its ability to do so limited.
Another option is the free plugin BorderFX . It has a lot of capabilities that are very useful when using Aperture. Even if you decide not to use it for this you should check it out.

Well I don't think it was done with screen capture but you can easily do something like that in After Effects or Flash.
But if you use Photoshop you simple make another layer for each size of the tear drop.
I would make two documents one that is large enough to make the background darker gray color so that when it is move will still over the fram of the background image.
You make that document a transparent background rather than white.
Then fill it with black or a dark gray and give it a transparency then make a selection of the teardrop shape and delete it from the fill color.
Then turn that selection into a path and stroke it.
Then make a document the size of the background image with the background image either opened or placed in it.
Then copy and paste the Gray transparent art from the other document and turn on animation in the PS window menu.
Use the time line method,
In the time line expand the dark gray layer and click the clock icon next to position and you will see a diamond shape appear at the first frame of the time line for that layer.
Now move the tear drop to the starting position then the time line frame indicator to the frame where to you want it to reach another position and then move the tear drop to that position, you will see another diamond appear where the frame indicator is, this is a key frame.
You move the frame indicator again and then move the teardrop again.
The white text is done naturally on a layer with white text and no background color and you move it he same way.
When you resize the tear drop you do it by copying the layer resize that copy you place it in the time line under the first teardrop layer but start it where you want it to first appear in the animation
At the same time you end the first presence of the first layer by resizing its duration in the time line. Now the first one disappears and the second size appears you can fade then as well.
Same with the text.
In photoshop it is more difficult than in after effects but you can get similar results. But it is still not too difficult. Animation requires a bit of patience and logical thinking and a there are mistakes to be made.
Here's a little video.

They are using a dressed up version of this

features thrown in. He used to provide this code for free but
apparently he is charging now… however most of the code was
posted here

If you are planning on making money off the code you should
drop him some money (it’s good karma).

An idea how this was done?

I was looking at a picture and was wondering if anyone might have an idea of a method that could have been used to achieve this effect. It looks like a photo (especially in the shoes area) but then it looks like a filter was applied to make it look more like an illustration. Any sort of an idea - some kind of blending mode or filter, etc - have a look..

Hi Charles and Totyo,
MEI's Nervous Pixel division created the search capabilities that you're referring to. Our team worked to make the experience straightforward, but also easy for the design team to implement on a folio by folio basis. What is nice about this search approach is that it allows you to provide a search that gives greater context than just a word in a paragraph. In Sotheby's case, this allows them to return search results that reference a specific lot within their auction catalog with a preview of the piece and other important details.
While similar, I imagine that you would want to tailor the experience to mesh well with your product.
If you'd like to implement something like this, Please feel free to email me directly at bkizner (at) maned.com and I'd be happy to discuss how we can help.
Best regards,
Brett

Hi, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Which exact iBook model is it?
You can choose from this list:

You could try resetting the PRAM and see if that helps.

Firefox fails to import history, cookies, favourites etc. from opera; cookies etc. are not listed in the space where you can select the items you want to import any idea how this comes? thanks!

In the importing operation Firefox detects Internet Explorer and Opera as installed browsers. When i select Internet Explorer cookies, history, favourites etc. are listed in a box where you can select the items you want to import in Firefox. When i select Opera no items are listed that can be imported. Any idea how this comes?

Hi,
I think that what you are searching be in Tools >> Options >> Privacy >> On Firefox will: change to "Use custom settings for history" then Button Show Cookies will be allowed and you will see the cookies in your browser in the next window
If you uncheck "Accept cookies from sites", probably the sites that need cookies will alert you that you need active the storage cookies

I took a photo class and the tech showed me how to take iPhoto images and export to an external hard drive. However, I do not recall how this was done. Can anyone provide me with step by step instructions? TIA!

iPhoto->:File->Export…. BTW, iPhoto and OS version would help; whereas, iOS version doesn't.

All notes on 4S gone. Any idea how this could happen? Have never synced notes. They are just gone.

All notes on 4S gone. Any idea how this could happen? Have never synced notes. They are just gone.

Well, I know in iOS 5 they can be linked to e-mail accounts, not sure if you had that setup or not.
For future reference, use a program like Evernote, amazing and free, plus dedicated PC apps if you want to view notes on your computer.

I installed Firefox v7.0.1 and I wasn't able to figure out how to pin the bookmarks to the left of the screen as in earlier versions. Any idea how this can be done in v7.o.1? If it's not possible I'll have to stay with an older version or go back to I.E.

no other details.

Does that make sense to you, you're going to back because you can't use a new option so the tabs are the same as before.
Right-click on a tab and choose "Pin as app-tab", and never do anything unless you know how to reverse it -- "Unpin tab" or delete the tab like any other tab.
I would suggest you bookmark the tabs you want as app tabs into a folder, so that you can periodically recreate them. Do not include your home page in your app-tabs or you will have two copies at Firefox startup.
Although I don't have a problem with them disappearing when I start Firefox, they always seemed like a potential problem over time. I use them but I often do start them over from a bookmarked folder so the are "clean" only one page per app-tab. Besides app-tabs can be accidentally closed like any other tab (use "Ctrl+Shift+T" to restore a tab, if you notice the loss immediately).
* https://support.mozilla.com/questions/848046
I would suggest installing "Multiple Tab Handler: it will make working with tabs, and app-tabs easier.
More tips whether you like the new styling of Firefox or not see the first 60 or so items for things you can change.
You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''
* http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface
There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional.
Please mark "Solved" one answer that will best help others with a similar problem -- hope this was it.

Best guess on how this was done

On this video there is a cool animation where a line moves across the screen and then a circle attached to this line pauses on the screen. There is a picture in the circle. The viewer has a chance to see the circle with the picture in it, then the line continues moving to the left until another circle/picture comes into view. Is this done by creating the entire line off stage then motion tweening it onto the stage or is it done by setting up different scenes or some other way? I'm just looking for opinions. The effect that I'm describing begins at about the 8 second mark on this youtube video. Thanks very much !

I agree IF it was done in Flash at all that would be the best way to do it but I wonder if it was done in After Effects. The blurs and the speed up and slow down of the elements seem much slicker than anything I've seen Flahs pull off, and are much easier in AE than Flash.

Does anyone know how this was done?

I was wondering if anyone has any insight on how to create this 360 example that apple posted, i looked through the links on the page but none of them referenced that example

Thanks

HI,
You may be able to do this with Grapher which is in your /Applications/Utilities folder.
Otherwise, web design software such as Adobe's Creative Suite seen here: http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/?promoid=DNOWM
Apple may have used Keynote for this which is part of the iWork suite of software. It's primarily used for creating presentations but can be integrated into a website. http://www.apple.com/iwork/tutorials/#keynote

I lost my files from creative cloud today, any ideas? (this was the first time i was using CC cloud)

is there any ways to recover them? they were three illustrator files.

Hi,
apologies for the delay in responding.
Can you give me some more information that may help us resolve this issue for you?
Can you tell me the exact steps you took (moved files from which location to which new location - was this all within the Creative Cloud Files folder?)
The name of the files?
And can you send me your coresync.log file from the location below?
Coresync.log file location -
Win - C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CoreSync
Mac - /Library/Application Support/Adobe/CoreSync/CoreSync-yyyy-mm-dd.log
(On Mac, you need to use the Go To Folder option from the Go option in Finder (menu at the top). Then in the pop up enter:
/users/username/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CoreSync/
Then select go, this will take you to the folder containing the .log files.)
Please email this to me directly on [email protected]

Any idea how this art style is achieved?

The style in question is this:
Gyazo - d6a7dfe8b1c0e8e90df308f51056a55a.jpg
Gyazo - 4032882c94ab3095a70ce8984cdc144a.png
I was wondering if anyone knew how the effect is achieved and the types of brushes or other effects you need to draw in this style.
The reason I am asking on here is because the artist who made these is very hard to reach.
Many thanks,
Oliver - ccenturionnMC

When I'm in the painterly/sketchy mood, I usually go to a program like Ambient Design's ArtRage or Autodesk's SketchBook Pro.
I know Photoshop is more than capable of doing something like this but I'm far more comfortable in an app designed expressly for painting or drawing.
