Can I stop iWeb from making png image files for text boxes?

I have a web page that contains one text box - the TextEdit file from which I pasted the text is 4 KB. The html file from iWeb is 12 KB. The shapeimage_2.png file is 132 KB! Is this necessary? How do I stop this. This is just text. Arial font, regular, 15 pt. The formating in the TextEdit version and the iWeb version is identical.

Some tips from this forum for reducing the number of png files in a web site:
1 - do not use and frames or borders, etc. around photos.
2 - don't use any reflections.
3 - create your own navigation bar with linked text* and turn of the iWeb Navigation bar. That's because the nav bar is all png based.
*Put your linked text directly under the Navigation bar. Then turn off the nav bar in the Inspector window. The nav bar will disappear and the linked text will move up to the top of the page as seen in this screenshot.
4 - use only the web safe fonts from the Font pane.
5 - do not use drop shadow on fonts.
6 - turn off smart quotes
7 - if you add a jpg to a page don't resize it in iWeb as that will cause it to be converted to png. Resize it to what you need before adding to the page..
The above will reduce the number and size of files associated with a web page quite a bit. Photos with fancy frames and reflections can generate a thumbnail png of around 110KB whereas the plain version will be a jpg of only 28KB. Although it doesn't sound like a lot, it will speed up loading of the page and be more darkside (i.e. PC) friendly.
Run a test with a test site and publish to a folder. Then follow the hints above and publish to another folder and compare folders.

How can I stop iMovie from making thumbnails of clips from past projects when opening the program to digitize new clips for new project. i have looked in the preferences and couldn't figure out what to disable.

How can I stop iMovie from making thumbnails of clips from past projects when first opening the program to digitize new clips for a new project. It takes forever for it and is very annoying. I have looked in the preferences and couldn't figure out what would disable this problem.

You do not need to move your cursor much when pressing the mouse button to cause the tab to tear-off/tear-away into a new tab. No "sensitivity" setting that I am aware of. The tab in the new window can be dragged back to the original window.
To disable the feature, install this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug489729-disable-detach-and-t/

Actually, I did notice the thread age. However, this phenomenon only appeared with mu phone in the last week.
You and I both would hope that it was corrected long ago, but that is evidently not the case.
I added information that will be useful for anyone else encountering my recent situation, now or perhaps in some distant future.
If you are aggravated by notices re: threads over two years old, perhaps you should disengage from the thread in lieu of making

Can I stop iWeb from putting a page name at the top?

I don't want page names across the top in iWeb. I have a list of hyperlinked icons on the side for that.
Can anyone tell me how to stop iWeb from putting the page name on the page?
Thanks.

The script is for the text in the browser title bar.
The title is taken from the large textbox at the top of each webpage.
If that box is missing or empty, iWeb uses a next textbox for the title.
If that is missing too, the pagename is used for the title.
If you want the title in the titlebar but not the large textbox on your page, select the textbox, do Cm-T and drag the font-size slider to the bottom.
Then click the color next to the T-icon and drag that opacity slider to the left (0).
Then resize the textbox to it minimun size and drag it out of view. And don't forget you did.
But I think the OP means the navigation links at the top.

How can I stop Photoshop from colour correcting images?

I'm trying to put all our art assets into a computer game engine.. but everything is more muted then in the final version. I spent a long time getting the GFX looking good but as soon as I save them they are blow out super saturated and over exposed.
How can I get the saved version to look like the version in photoshop?
Here is an example
This a screenshot of windows. The image on the right is photoshop, and the image on the left is the same image saved as a PNG.... see how they look compleatly diffrent? Why is this and how can I stop it?

I typed that in a hurry last night, so not to give the wrong impression I should add that I know PECourtejoie knows better. He probably read it in a hurry too.
Reading the article again shows that Marc Edwards has some things right, but fundamentally misunderstands the basic concepts behind them. What he seems to not get is that the RGB values on-screen are in the monitor color space, they are not in the original document color space. It has nothing to do with the operating system.
This has a practical implication: Photoshop will not match display in a non-color managed environment. This is because Photoshop has converted from document to monitor profile. The RGB values sent to the display are simply not the same.
There is a very simple solution - suspend the color management chain temporarily by using the same profile for both document and monitor. This can be done permanently, but then of course you're flying blind. Much better to proof to Monitor RGB just for the match. This will show everything as if no color management existed.
People should just use ctrl/cmd+Y more.
And while I'm at it: Discussions regarding color management often tend to spiral downwards - despite the best efforts from the people who know how how it works. Red herrings and confused statements always come in from the flanks, to the point where we all lose track completely. But color management isn't all that difficult, and I don't know why this myth that it's totally impenetrable has become so widespread.
In this case, the key probably lies in the very first reply by c. pfaffenbichler.

How can I stop Firefox from making files read only?

Firefox (and not IE or Google Chrome) makes certain files (Movie Magic Screenwriter files, for example) read only. Is there a way to prevent that?

Let's attempt to fond out what you have installed that added that "noise" to Firefox.
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
:[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

Can one stop Firefox from printing PDF Protected files

Locking as a duplicate. Please continue with [/questions/992183]
Fire Fox prints PDF Protected files. How do I stop this from happening and letting users steal my work?

Basically if an image is published it is likely to be copied one way or another. Maybe consider watermarking and or only providing low resolution copies of images in such pdf s.
I will close this question. Anyone wishing to give detailed advice may do so in your original thread

I could certainly copy an image from a pdf displayed or downloaded by browsers other than Firefox.

How can I stop iWeb from changing the name of my home page?

I don't know if my title really makes sense, but I want to use Google Analytics to measure the traffic on my website. I know that 99% of my visitors enter through the main address (www.ozarkmtnescape.com), but are then immediately re-directed to the home page. iWeb changes the name of the main page from the above address to http://ozarkmtnescape.com/Site%203/Ozark%20Mountain%20Escape.html
The people at Google tell me that if I want to start tracking the traffic on the main page, then I have to figure out how to make iWeb stop changing the address of the main site.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Right click on the date to change its behavior and once you have fixed it resave your template.

Can you stop iphoto from making 'events'

Hi,
I dont really understand why Iphoto places all your photos into different sections depending on the day the photo was taken..
I just imported all my photos from my iphone, and now I have 1000's of different events with 2-3 photos each in them, making the screen look very messy, unorganised and hard to search through.
Is there a way to just simply display all of the photos at once without silly little 'events' for every single day?
Thanks

On Saturday I go to a wedding and take lots of piccies, on Sunday I go for a walk with friends to blow the hang-over away, on Monday I take my camera to work to take some pictures of the presentationsome colleagues give in the afternoon.
That is o.k., as long related pictures have been taken consecutively. If you are working at three projects simultaniously and are shooting the photos in the same place at the same time, you may want another organization, for example, you spend three days in a city to take pictures for a book on fountains, a book on churches, and a book on birds. The photos will be mixed and not separated by time. I dove sitting on a fountain in front of the church would be needed for all three projects. iPhoto's daily events will not reflect the projects you are working on. The name "shoot" for the photos taken on one day would be more meaningful than "event" in this case.

How can I stop Firefox from making itself the default browser every time it upgrades?

Every time there's a new version of firefox, it updates automatically, but it changes the windows file type settings so that firefox is now the default browser.
I have gone to tools > options > advanced and cleared the "Always check to see if firefox is the default browser" checkbox. It's not an issue on startup, only on upgrade.
This happens every time there's a new version of firefox.

Unfortunately the "web browser" I want to use is just a compiled script that examines the URL and then launches the proper browser to open it (because some pages are not standards compliant and work better in a certain browser). It does not appear in the default web browser list, but when I go to Tools > Folder Options > File Types, I can edit the firefox URL, URL http and URL https types and then it will work correctly until the next firefox upgrade.

How can I do to convert a ".PNG" image file to a ".JPG" or ".BMP" one?

My problem is to save an image (after processing and with overlay information!) to a standard file (JPG, BMP, ...); if I do it directly with the related VI's, the overlay information is lost; I can save the image in a ".PNG" file, which contains the complete information with overlay, but is not displayable on a LabView-less PC ! How can I do?
Thank you for your prompt answers.
Francois

Hello Francois,
As you noted, BMP and JPG file formats do not support overlay information. There are two approaches to your problem.
1. Write to PNG file. PNG is not a LabVIEW specific file format. It cannot, however, be read by simple programs such as Windows Paint. Paint Shop Pro, Photoshop, among other more robust image viewing and editing programs can handle PNG files that LabVIEW generates.
2. Flatten the overlay information into the main image before writing to BMP or JPG. I don't believe this functionality is built-in to LabVIEW, so this would require some programming, perhaps quite difficult. That is why LabVIEW supports PNG files.
