How to make your site DIFFERENT...

Some have auto-playing movies, or songs...
Some have "comment" sections...
Some have no menus...
What have you done to make your site different?
What have you done to make your site eyecatching?
How is this accomplished?
Many of us are finding that we have already pushed iWeb to it's apparent limits, and we need more ideas!

Thanks all for the kind words.
Linda, as far as the images go I edited them in Photoshop.
I saved them as jpegs using the quality slider set at 8
(never less for quality reasons).
The actual image "dimensions" in general are 280pixels x 421pixels
depending on orientation and 72 ppi in image "resolution" .
I think if you keep images no larger then 450pixels for general viewing
they should load fine.
The images that are the Page Headers are however W700xH400 which is the size of the default place holders in the templates, or 700x120 for the narrow ones.
I hope this isn't getting too technical, I've even considered doing QuickTime tutorials.
Derekbalsey: I'd say use the shapes and do things like adding strokes to a shape and use white or no fill or a complimenting color to fill it.
I will be updating the site tonight, nothing major, just slight changes to the page headers and adding some photos until I get some more "pro" looking ones I hope.
We'll see ho fast those load as they will be larger.
My goal is to use simple shapes and good colors, as i don't really know how to create animations and the likes.

How to make my site top in the search engines for a high ranking?

I am new at this, and I am planning to build a big site on iweb, but my question is where can I get information on how to make my site with high rankings? Would I have to post my site in lots of search engines, or have the hosting company help out? how do i do this?

As SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is important to you, you may want to consider alternatives to iWeb as "iWeb websites are not made to be search engine friendly" — read more here:
SEO For iWeb: How to get your iWeb Websites into Google & Other Major Search Engines
...iWeb is designed for personal sites and, as such, Apple apparently thinks there's no need for Google — you tell grandma the URL of your personal iWeb site, she painstakingly types it in and then gazes admiringly at the photos of her grandchildren.
Apple hasn't changed this approach in three iterations of iWeb but perhaps, with all the feedback it receives on this issue, there's still hope. Meanwhile, web-design apps for business sites tend to integrate search engine optimization — Sandvox Pro is an example:
http://www.karelia.com/sandvox/getyour_site_noticed_andb.html
Another advantage of Sandvox is that, when viewing your site in Safari, the text increase & decrease commands will work — they don't work for an iWeb-created site. ...For business use, it's important that customers don't turn away from your site because they consider your text too small to read.
However, if you still really want to use iWeb, this article may help:
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/SearchEngines/SEO.html
By the way, for more info about SEO in general, this blog of a web-design app (Yola) recently started a multi-part series on the subject — the first is here:

Make your site scale to the size of the browser

Hi,
I was wondering how you can make your website scale to the size of your browser? An example I found is Kampe.ca
Thanks,
Brandon

Fluid (percentage based), elastic (em based) and fixed (pixel based) sites all have their plusses and minuses. Deciding which one is appropriate for your particular project depends on the amount of content you need to display per page, target audience, devices, and personal preferences.
Liquid layouts can get unwieldy on super wide or super narrow displays. Thus, if I have a lot of content to display, I prefer to use a semi-liquid layout - % based along with min- and max-width restrictions.
Elastic sites resize text and images proportionally which some people really like. Personally I prefer being able to resize text only in my browser without it affecting page and image dimensions. That said, elastic layouts can work well for graphics heavy web sites.
Fixed-width, centered layouts IMO are the most convenient to work with. I think that's why so many web designers use them. The trick is finding the "right width" for your target audience. For most desktop and laptop users, 900 to 1100px is probably a good range. For mobile devices, 480px.

Hello, okamisama

Yeah, you're righ, the workaround is click in the text box but don't select the entire text just click in it so that the cursor is blinking and then type in it.

How to make your movie from a template in AE CS6?

Hello,
Firstly, I'm new to this forum and Adobe After Effects. Hence, please excuse my beginner's language.
I recently modified a slideshow template in AE CS6. After doing all the necessary modifications in the template project, I do not know how to make a movie out of it.
I'll appreciate your help in guiding me by providing the necessary information to create the movie.
Waiting for a reply.
Thanks

Ouch. That's rather like saying your thesis committee needs your paper tomorrow and, say, while we're at it, can we help you with your research?
After Effects is huge, unbelievably deep and stupidly complicated.
It's not that we don't WANT to help you, it's that we cannot execute the rendering commands for you nor can we make all of the rendering and output decisions for you.

How to make your drawings into a movie?

Mostly preferred to use iMovie!:)
Many Thanks,

Simon Tofield draws and animates directly in Adobe Flash. It's frame-by-frame animation aka "cell animation"; that is, Simon creates a new drawing for each frame of the movie (though of course many elements are probably copied from the previous frame. If you don't want to use Flash, there are a number of other animation programs available. See:
http://www.macupdate.com/find/mac/animation
Many animators, those who prefer to work in more traditional physical media, just make their drawings and photograph them to stitch into a movie. Up to you what you feel most comfortable working with.

How to make your i pod stop zooming in

to make your i pod stop zooming in doubble tap the screen when the device is on with three fingers and then pull the fingers down
to zoom out and up to zoom in

A iPod touch only zooms in when you put two fingers on the screen then spread the out and have them in close to zoom out. You can try to avoid putting two fingers on it and nothing really includes two fingers on the iPod touch since it can't handle multi-touch. However, I don't think you can stop that from happening if you keep on doing it by mistake. If there is, them i can imagine that it would be in settings- general then it would be in one of those. I think it would most likely would be in accessibility. Hope this helped!

How to make your Bose QC2's fit your iPhone - or maybe any other headphones

First off, I've read so many threads of people acting really mad that their iphone either doesn't do this or that... People are strange like that. I was even a little upset about the $200 drop, but since it happened I've moved on and I really don't mind.
Anyways, I'm a very proud owner of an iPhone and a pair of Bose QC2's.. I love both of them. I felt bad that the QC2's didn't fit the iPhone, so I purchased the Belkin adapter. Bad choice. Imagine sitting on an airplane with that 3 inch long adapter sticking out of your iphone like an antenna, then your headphones plugged in. The two guys sitting in the row beside me were laughing - I knew they were. So I trashed the belkin adapter. It ***** anyways. Don't buy it.
I got home and took a second look at my QC2's and thought, "what if I cut back the plastic/rubber piece so that it WOULD fit?" So I did, and not only did it look good, but it seated perfectly and it sounded GREAT!
So here's how to do it. All you need is a new strait edge razor... (the kind you would scrape paint off a window)
Begin cutting in very small increments. Cut strait down by pushing down through the plastic/rubber until it hits the metal. it cuts almost like butter. Go all the way around. I cut off the equivalent thickness of a 5 cent nickel. It will take you less than 5 minutes to make this happen.
When you're done, you'll find that it fits perfectly, AND that the structural integrity of the male end is not compromised at all.
I have a photo taken by the iphone. It's a little blurry since I don't know how to get a clear super close up, but the picture shows the results and what it looks like underneath. If anyone can host it for me, that would be great. it that's the case, I'll get out my D100 and get some very good shots of it.
Good Luck!

make sure you have the most current version of Media Explorer. (from the website)vision m is actually listed under mp3 players for future ref. i got all my album art from amazon.com.i just used the overall default of 500x500 pixels as the "standard" size to use in transfer.... mainly b/c thats what most album covers where from the site. pics that were smaller then that, i searched google image for the album cover. i used picture it 7.0 to resize image to 500x500 give or take a few pix off either way, keeping resize in proportion to each other. then save the image. *amazing site as well to get album art. again you will need to pic a size for album cover art.http://www.zero.co.nz/music/[color="#000099">?so with the most updated version of media explorer, just bring up the album view and pull over album art on top of blank album cover. it was very time consuming ( have not found way to cut down on time... the more you ahve the longer it takes to load up, ect.. ), that and i had ALOT of albums on there. but i am very very happy with the end result. like i said 500x500 looks great. just just me.

This is how to make your DVD look better & eliminate aliasing.

After trying several different ways on how to get the best from my AVCHD camera to an SD DVD I discovered the following worked best.
1. Import and edit as per normal
2. Export to HD 720p (DON"T share to idvd)
3. Open iDVD and import the HD 720p file directly from the saved folder (idvd will convert it to mpeg 2)
4. Burn dvd.
This way eliminates nearly all of the aliasing problems and overall quality looks much better than just "Sharing" directly to idvd.
Give it a try and let me know if your dvd quality improves.
Hope this helps.
Cheers
Paul

Thanks Paul. I also archive my AVCHD original footage via the archive function in iMovie '09 (a great new feature, which iMovie '08 lacked).
I just purchased a plug-in for Quick Look which allows you to view the first frame of each AVCHD clip in the Finder - very useful for identifying the clips for importing to iMovie. It's called HD Quick Look and is produced by the same Western Australian company that produces VoltaicHD (Shedworx). The cost is about $8 AUD and the product can be found here:
http://www.shedworx.com/hdquicklook
I'm about to import and edit a wedding video shot in AVCHD format (highest quality setting). I'm still a bit unsure whether to import at the Large or Full setting, given my earlier comments about the "bad" effects. However, as I'll be burning to standard DVDs, it probably won't matter whether I use Large or Full for import - but I'll probably try exporting at 720p, as you've suggested.
I guess my main concern in using your method is that 540 has to be upscaled to 720, hence my reluctance to import at Large. But if I use Full - and any "bad" effects - it will be knocked down to 540 anyway (according to popular wisdom)! Can't win!
It will be interesting to see whether Steve Mullen has any advice on this.
Cheers
John
