How to make a better trace
Using CS5.
I'm trying to take our old (probably) hand-drawn logo and turn it into a smooth vector image. I've removed most of the color in Photoshop, blurred it a little, and then opened it in Illustrator. I then did a LiveTrace. I end up with lettering that is kindof funky looking. I messed around with the different trace options, but noe of them seem to do the trick. Thetraced sample below is "detailed illustration". Is there a way to retain the look of the original logo without having to sacrifice a bunch? I'm VERY new at this, so I may be describing this all wrong. I've included the photoshop image and the post-live-trace image.
After Trace:
As you can see, there's some weirdness going on in the lettering, for example:the shape of the "S". How can I make this lettering look "normal"?
Thanks.

The answer is what you're probably dreading, if you're new to all this - you must do it yourself. It's pen tool time!
This is a case where filters/effects/automation is only going to hurt your end-result.
Get your best cleaned version on the logo. Put it on a new layer and lock it. You might want to make it partially transparent - I don't like drawing on top of high-contrast images when doing a manual re-draw. All you need to see are the edges/outlines, afterall.
Lock your reference layer.
Draw on a new layer, on top of your logo reference. Take your time. Make it look good. Carefully craft each path, paying attention to each bezier curve.
If you know the font originally used, you might try and use that as a base. Manually warp each letterform correctly to match the logo. Might try a Warp or Mesh Envelope Distort.

How to make sound better quality?
So I exported a preview of my animation but the sound isn't high quality. How can I make it better quality? It doesn't sound like when I press Enter in Flash CS5.
Go to the publish preferences and see what bit rate is set for the compression of the audio. Be sure to check both stream and event.

Look this image, how to make it better
Can anyone help me to have a look at this picture? It was captured by the camera, and the camera is connected with NI 1427. The middle of the image is so bright. The gap in the middle can not be recognized. Please give some advices on how to make the image better. There must be something with the hardware setting. What should I need to do with that? Thanks for any help.

NIR1129000019.zip 428 KBI assume you need to have the overhead lamp on for testing the solar cell? If you could turn it off during photos, that would improve your images. Right now I am guessing you are getting a good reflection of the overhead lamp in the center of your image. Having diffuse lights (like long flourescent bulbs) in multiple places would greatly improve your image quality. A general rule in lighting for shiny surfaces is to avoid placing a light where you can see its reflection in the image. This way you won't get any bright spots in the image.
If you could even tip the solar cell or camera a little bit so the overhead light is not reflected directly into the camera, that would help.
It is hard to make recommendations without knowing the limitations.

Found Out Why Reception is Bad and How to Make it Better (BT Required)
When you hold the Iphone in your hand like the Commercial it actually looses reception because the Antena is on the bottom part of the iPhone, and you hand is blocking the anttena, so if u hold the top portion with two fingers careful not to drop it, it actually keeps better signal and less dropped calls, or when u leave it sitting in you lap or on a couter while on your bluetooth it keeps awsome reception, hope this works for all of you.
Interesting. I've not found that to be entirely the case.
I've used a BT handsfree kit in my car for a while and call quality and signal have always been stable, and remain so even if I have the iPhone in my pocket, lap or am holding it.
I also don't find much difference between holding it as per the ad, or setting it down on my desk. Signal remains at the same level - AND subject to the same fluctuations. Those fluctuations seem rather less pronounced since the 1.0.2 update, but are consistent regardless of how the iPhone is held or positioned. Just to be sure, I placed my iPhone face down on a glass table top, and witnessed the same signal as before when it was in my hand.
I think this device suffers two directly related issues: that it is less sensitive to signal than many other cellphones operating in the same bands, and that as a result it is more sensitive to even slight variations in those signals. Thus for some, in a strong signal area and with little or nothing to negatively impact signal, holding it almost any way won't change the signal. Others, in less strong signal areas or who suffer potentially interfering issues, will see significant variations in signal or call quality dependent on handling of the device or where it is located. -
How to make a better Page Up/Page Down keyboard shortcut
I don't like the standard Fn + Up/Down Arrow shortcut because it requires two hands. How can I make a new one that can be done with just the right hand (like maybe Alt + Arrow or something)?
@gooballala - the fn + up / down is the only way I can currently do a page up / page down - that's my issue. For some reason it actually isn't listed anywhere in the keyboard shortcut settings...
@SwankPeRFection - is there some setting I need to change to make this work? As of now, Option + Up/Down does the same thing as Up/Down without Option - a very small scroll. -
How to make Purging better in terms of performance
Hi
I am trying to purge(delete) data from 4 tables on the basis of a flag in the lookup table.
Now, there are 3 million records to be deleted from each of the 4 tables .
My piece of code is like this
for i in(select ids from lookup_table where flag_val='N')
loop
delete from table_a where id=i.ids;
delete from table_b where id=i.ids;
delete from table_c where id=i.ids;
delete from table_d where id=i.ids;
if commit_interval=5000 then
commit;
commit_interval:=0;
end if;
commit_interval:=commit_interval +1;
end;
I am trying to commit for 5000 records.
its taking a lot of time
like 10-12 hrs .
Can anyone solve this issue its urgent .
regards
shubhNow in your code you have written delete statements for all the four tables. Now convert it to four different procedures each handling only a single table.
something like this.........
for i in(select ids from lookup_table where flag_val='N')
loop
delete from table_a where id=i.ids;
if commit_interval=5000 then
commit;
commit_interval:=0;
end if;
commit_interval:=commit_interval +1;
end;
for i in(select ids from lookup_table where flag_val='N')
loop
delete from table_b where id=i.ids;
if commit_interval=5000 then
commit;
commit_interval:=0;
end if;
commit_interval:=commit_interval +1;
end;
Run these procedures simultaneously.... say thru different windows/terminals.
Since these procedures are running simultaneously, the server efficiency will improve. Also make sure that the server is not used by other users/ less number of users so that max. resources are available for your code. -

Flickr uploading is a horrible experience. Does anyone have any ideas on how to make it better?
I am using iPhoto and I amd trying to upload several undred pictures to Flickr at a time.
The native iPhoto exporter hangs and crashes.
The Flickr Exporter plugin by ConnectiveFlow does the same.
The web based importer will also do the same and it can only do 200 pictures at a time.
I am considering Apeture, but does anyone have better experience with Apeture's native uploader?
ThanksI don't believe there's a solution to that. I don't believe there's a way to upload hundreds at one go. But you could contact Flickr support and see what they suggest.

On the Siri official page, Apple states that Siri gets better by learning owners' accent.
Here comes the question: how does Siri get better?
I mean, once you used Siri and found the words are slighty off from what you actually said.
Most people might just launch Siri again and re-spoke the sentence again until Siri finally got what they wanted.
Is Siri able to learn the accent from this action?
Siri sometimes got wrong on certain names especially they're ones Nickname and probably not even a complete word.
Then Siri tried to make the whole senetence logical by changing the entire sentence which will result something completely off the original given command.
Anyone knows how to make Siri better and more personalized?I'd suggest:
1) don't have setNumeratorr and setDenominator methods. Make the numerator and denominator final fields in Rational. That is, make each Rational instance immutable.
2) Give Rational a constructor that takes two longs. One is the numerator and the other is the denominator. The constructor removes common factors between the two and stores the values in their most reduced form.
3) The add method can probably be cleaned up give (2).
4) Don't name the argument to add "object". Of course it's an object. Call it "operand" or even just "other". -
How can I change the insert SWF File, I need to add a few things and make it better?
How can I change the insert SWF File, I need to add a few things and make it better? Is there an option inside of the dreamweaver menu that I am not looking at. It would make it easier on me if I changed some things around and didn't have to do it all myself each time I used it. Just incase you was needing to remember what swf flash was, It is not a swf video either.

Need advice on how to make my website look better!
ive made a website for a security company but im just not 100% happy with it, i dont know if it doesnt look professional enough or things need changing design wise. i am open to any ideas on how to make my website look better, i also dont mind if anyone wants to dramtically change it if their idea is better. I would just very much appreciate a review and constructive critisism and ideas for a newly designed version of the site please!
[advertising slogan removed by host]
Thanks!As a novice, some things I see: The footer has redundant, unecessary images (4 large images-for your services--REDUNDANT) odd? The text part of footer: text seems close, scrunched, have some space between heading and items, DO NOT CENTER TEXT!,
One of the service links bought to page with SAME LARGE image on homepage-change picture, don't use same large image for 2 different pages.
DO NOT use CONTACT US as 1 of 5 links on menubar. Do in another creative way, and/or use footer for contact. I think this looks amateurish (my opinion of course).
If I remember, the homepage and the rest of site, have exact same page structure.--See if you can atleast change the structure of inner pages versus the homepage.
Didn't look at enough, but..maybe...
each of your services should be a main menu link on your menubar. I would not put contact us on menubar, and you also had another menubar link with no dropdown( of course ok, but maybe could restructure)--Also your last service (on right of menubar)---why is that one different, and not included with the other services??
Seems like your menubar (items) structure could be reworked.--I would suggest, briefly looking at, to maybe have each service as a primary menu heading/title..YOU MAY NOT NEED A DROPDOWN MENU? Make sure if dropdown it is necessary.
Local security should be one of your services.
Have your footer logo, as is to left, but maybe put your footer links more to the right;;It will 'balance' the footer section
Your top logo seems too close to your main LARGE image (Which btw, seems oddly large compared to the rest of your site?)--That LARGE top image(the same palce on every same looking page), seems too big for your page--Why doen't it line up with the rest off your page content? -

}Well working is good...
The code itself is less than spectacular I'm afraid. There is very little
OOness to this. For your future reference when you complete a program
and it consists of nothing but static methods you have done something
incorrectly.
As far as the code you do have goes some refactoring would be nice.
The two main methods you have (proj1 but especially processData) are
too long and unwieldy. processData seems to be a program in an of
itself. It's complicated and hard to follow.
My recommendation to you would be to read this http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/index.html
Especially focus on the sections dealing with explanation of Object
programming. These terms and concepts can certainly be confusing to
new programmers so you may also want to consider finding yourself a
tutor to help you get a better grasp of these concepts.
In short if it works that's good. And it's also good to see that you put the
effort and time in that you have. However if I was grading your project
I'd give it a C- at best because this is a Java program in syntax only. -

Hi my name is vishal
For past 10 days i have been breaking my head on how to make column headers in table appear bold while datas in table appear regular from c# windows forms with sql server2008 using iTextSharp.
Given below is my code in c# on how i export datas from different tables in sql server to PDF report using iTextSharp:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;

using iTextSharp.text;
using iTextSharp.text.pdf;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.IO;
namespace DRRS_CSharp
public partial class frmPDF : Form
public frmPDF()
InitializeComponent();
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
Document doc = new Document(PageSize.A4.Rotate());
var writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, new FileStream("AssignedDialyzer.pdf", FileMode.Create));
doc.SetMargins(50, 50, 50, 50);
doc.SetPageSize(new iTextSharp.text.Rectangle(iTextSharp.text.PageSize.LETTER.Width, iTextSharp.text.PageSize.LETTER.Height));
doc.Open();
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(6);
table.TotalWidth =530f;
table.LockedWidth = true;
PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase("Institute/Hospital:AIIMS,NEW DELHI", FontFactory.GetFont("Arial", 14, iTextSharp.text.Font.BOLD, BaseColor.BLACK)));
cell.Colspan = 6;
cell.HorizontalAlignment = 0;
table.AddCell(cell);
Paragraph para=new Paragraph("DCS Clinical Record-Assigned Dialyzer",FontFactory.GetFont("Arial",16,iTextSharp.text.Font.BOLD,BaseColor.BLACK));
para.Alignment = Element.ALIGN_CENTER;
iTextSharp.text.Image png = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance("logo5.png");
png.ScaleToFit(105f, 105f);
png.Alignment = Element.ALIGN_RIGHT;
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection("Data Source=NPD-4\\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=DRRS;Integrated Security=true");
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Select d.dialyserID,r.errorCode,r.dialysis_date,pn.patient_first_name,pn.patient_last_name,d.manufacturer,d.dialyzer_size,r.start_date,r.end_date,d.packed_volume,r.bundle_vol,r.disinfectant,t.Technician_first_name,t.Technician_last_name from dialyser d,patient_name pn,reprocessor r,Techniciandetail t where pn.patient_id=d.patient_id and r.dialyzer_id=d.dialyserID and t.technician_id=r.technician_id and d.deleted_status=0 and d.closed_status=0 and pn.status=1 and r.errorCode<106 and r.reprocessor_id in (Select max(reprocessor_id) from reprocessor where dialyzer_id=d.dialyserID) order by pn.patient_first_name,pn.patient_last_name", conn);
conn.Open();
SqlDataReader dr;
dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
table.AddCell("Reprocessing Date");
table.AddCell("Patient Name");
table.AddCell("Dialyzer(Manufacturer,Size)");
table.AddCell("No.of Reuse");
table.AddCell("Verification");
table.AddCell("DialyzerID");
while (dr.Read())
table.AddCell(dr[2].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[3].ToString() +"_"+ dr[4].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[5].ToString() + "-" + dr[6].ToString());
table.AddCell("@count".ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[12].ToString() + "-" + dr[13].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[0].ToString());
dr.Close();
table.SpacingBefore = 15f;
doc.Add(para);
doc.Add(png);
doc.Add(table);
doc.Close();
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("AssignedDialyzer.pdf");
if (MessageBox.Show("Do you want to save changes to AssignedDialyzer.pdf before closing?", "DRRS", MessageBoxButtons.YesNoCancel, MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation) == DialogResult.Yes)
var writer2 = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, new FileStream("AssignedDialyzer.pdf", FileMode.Create));
else if (MessageBox.Show("Do you want to save changes to AssignedDialyzer.pdf before closing?", "DRRS", MessageBoxButtons.YesNoCancel, MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation) == DialogResult.No)
this.Close();
The above code executes well with no problem at all!
As you can see the file to which i create and save and open my pdf report is
AssignedDialyzer.pdf.
The column headers of table in pdf report from c# windows forms using iTextSharp are
"Reprocessing Date","Patient Name","Dialyzer(Manufacturer,Size)","No.of Reuse","Verification" and
"DialyzerID".
However the problem i am facing is after execution and opening of document is my
column headers in table in pdf report from
c# and datas in it all appear in bold.
I have browsed through net regarding to solve this problem but with no success.
What i want is my pdf report from c# should be similar to following format which i was able to accomplish in vb6,adodb with MS access using iTextSharp.:
Given below is report which i have achieved from vb6,adodb with MS access using iTextSharp
I know that there has to be another way to solve my problem.I have browsed many articles in net regarding exporting sql datas to above format but with no success!
Is there is any another way to solve to my problem on exporting sql datas from c# windows forms using iTextSharp to above format given in the picture/image above?!
If so Then Can anyone tell me what modifications must i do in my c# code given above so that my pdf report from c# windows forms using iTextSharp will look similar to image/picture(pdf report) which i was able to accomplish from
vb6,adodb with ms access using iTextSharp?
I have approached Sound Forge.Net for help but with no success.
I hope anyone/someone truly understands what i am trying to ask!
I know i have to do lot of modifications in my c# code to achieve this level of perfection but i dont know how to do it.
Can anyone help me please! Any help/guidance in solving this problem would be greatly appreciated.
I hope i get a reply in terms of solving this problem.
vishalHi,
About iTextSharp component issue , I think this case is off-topic in here.
I suggest you consulting to compenent provider.
