Looking for a more realistic ink and/or watercolor effect (plugin)
Is there a plugin out there that does the following effect :
Seems like it would be simple enough to create manually (albeit require some time), but even more simple to automate through a 1-click plugin, if it's out there.
Not a plug-in, but a separate program, Corel Painter has about the best "natural media" painting, that I have ever seen. With Watercolor, one has so much control, that it is astounding.
Though PS and Painter have moved closer and closer together, for many Images, I could just not live without Painter.
Maybe Alien Skin, or others, do have a more natural Watercolor Filter?
Good luck,
Hunt

Looking for sample code using "first_tab" and "next_tab"
Looking for sample code using "first_tab" and "next_tab". How is it used with ItemID within a dialog box? I've read the reference books - don't understand it.
Hi Ray,
There are several ways to do this, and in the example I created, I actually did not end up using shift registers. I've attached some example code that basically multiplies the period by the duty cycle percentage to achieve the number of milliseconds to be high and low.
You would just need to insert your DIO code in each frame of the sequence structure.
Hope that helps. Kind regards,

I was looking for a hotel on mozilla and the first hotel exhibiting in the ad is not aligned with knowledge panel. However it is showing correct result on other browsers.

If you have made changes to Advanced font settings like increasing the minimum/default font size then try the default minimum setting "none" and the default font size 16 in case the current setting is causing problems.

It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but to use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with text not being displayed properly. -

i just bought the revolution after having a blackberry and i'm looking for a notepad type software and a place to store passwords.
I use SafeWallet after trying most of the apps in the market place. It's a bit expensive compared to most and you have to pay for the desktop application which sucks but the other apps were some cumbersome I knew I would never use them after the initial setup.
I'll add the normal caution of storing passwords in a non-protected text file but you probably know that

Looking for a more suitable animation tool
I've been creating animations from sprites in After Effects, with mixed results. The input is a number of pixel art sprites (exported from elsewhere), and the output is a video, characters running around and interacting. I have AFX doing quite a lot, but it's very awkward and I'm pretty sure it's the wrong tool for the job. Can anyone either suggest better approaches, or more suitable software? I'll describe what I'm doing now:
- Many sprites are bodies or heads to combine, eg. a smiling or angry faces and walking or standing bodies. I set the head position for each body sprite, so any head fits in the right place on any body (trivial rigging), then apply it with a script, so I can change the body and the head moves to the right place automatically.
- Some sprites have multiple layers. For example, while heads are normally on top of bodies, a body may have an arm raised, which needs to be above the head instead of below it. I can create the extra layer for the body separately, and it works for any head.
- I can set the draw order per-layer. Usually, one character and all of its parts is drawn on top of another--body1, head1, body2, head2. But, if two characters collide, handshake, or interact in other complex ways, I may want to draw both bodies, and then both heads, even though the heads and bodies are still anchored normally. Some sprites may have multiple layers, eg. body, head, hands, legs. (Z position hack...)
- Individual layers can be adjusted separately, eg. to adjust the default head position downwards to give a nod.
- Some sprites are hue shifted (hair color, clothing color) or have more complex adjustments applied, so I can reuse more sprites.
(I'm only describing what I'm doing and not how. I wrote more detail about what I'm actually doing in AFX and the specific issues I'm having, but it was too long and people can probably already guess the practical issues of using AFX like this. I'll post more info if anybody asks.)
The result is functional, but a real hassle to actually work with. AFX is a compositing and effects tool and it's not really designed for animations, and only its scripting support has let me abuse it this much. I don't know of a better tool, though--searches for animation tools mostly come up with things like Spine (authoring individual models for importing into games), and nothing suitable for creating complex video animations from sprite sets.
There are probably many tools to do small pieces of this (sprite animation sequences, effects, scene animation, camera), but I'd really like to not split into a multi-tool workflow, since I want to experiment freely with a scene, not lay out an entire scene and then create it start to finish. Does anyone have any suggestions (or better places to ask)?There are many other DTP applications:

Good afternoon, my name is mike Perreault , on 9-28-13 I looked for a free music app., I don't know what happen but my credit card was charged $20.20, please tell me why and credit my acc. Because I didn't purchase anything from iTunes .
Sincerely ,
MikePlease be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. Most of the people who will reply to your posts are, like me, your fellow users.
As to your issue, first, make sure that you did not inadvertently make an in-app purchase. Many apps, particularly games, are free for the base game but charge for additional features such as levels, "coins" and other such add-ons. Check your Purchase History to see if that reminds you as to what you might have purchased:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727
If you find that this was an in-app purchase, to prevent this from happening again, turn off "In App purchases" in the Restrictions settings on your device. For more information, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4213
As to a refund, that's not automatic since the terms of sale for the iTunes Store state that all sales are final. You can contact the iTunes Store, explain the reason for your request, and ask, though:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
They're usually pretty lenient in the case of inadvertent purchases, but there are no guarantees.
If the charge was not an in-app purchase that you made and forgot but the charges do appear in your Purchase History, contact the iTunes Store and let them know. You should also immediately change your password for your Apple ID. If the charges don't appear in your Purchase History, they were probably fake charges made directly to your credit card, and your card issuer will need to handle those.

Looking for a more universal scripting language than AppleScript or Automator
I want to learn a cross-platform/web scripting language to automate tasks, write scripts and with the potential to create programs and web apps.
I am looking for something that:
- is not a program with a GUI like Automator, iKey, Quickeys, Maestro...
- is more "universal" than Applescript, cross-platform
- can be used to automate simple tasks in a simple way
- can also be used to create more complex scripts, web apps and maybe, eventually, programs (with GUI)
I've read about Javascript, Python, Ruby, PHP, Perl, C+, C++, Java and others, but I really don't know.
- Java sounds pretty cool, Python too.
- I'm not crazy about PHP or Perl, with Javascript, but some people swear by it
- I don't know anything about C+, C++
Does anyone have any suggestion(s)? Please let me know if you need any more details. Thank you.C, C++, Objective-C are nor scripting languages and will not help you do web pages. (Don;t know what C+ is).
Forget Java it has lots of security problems and more and more users are disabling Java in their web browsers because of this. Developing in Java would be, in my opinion, a mistake.
If you are doing any web works at all you will need to know some Javascript, no way around that. But Javascript is actually not a bad language
Note Java and Javascript are two totally separate languages that have nothing in common but the first 4 letters of their names.
So you are left with PHP, Perl, Python and Ruby.
Dismissing PHP and Perl out of hand is a big mistake, They are both major players and you will run into them just about everywhere. If you are looking to do this for possible employment you will need to be familiar with them at least.
Python and Ruby are both strong languages as well. I don't have a lot of experience with either so I can;t speak to their strengths but learnign either would not be a mistake.
Knowing what your reasons are for asking this, personal use or for employment, might help refine the list some.
regards

Hi,
I've had a interest in video for some time now and am looking for more opportunities to learn the craft than I can get from the various books and tutorial materials. I have shot some local event video but I work full time and going out and getting jobs is difficult. To that end, I'm hoping to locate someone in the Western MA or Northern CT areas who could use an occasional assistant to help out a shoot. I have my own equipment and basic editing facillities.

A Drobo is like a RAID, except the data is redundantly stored using fancy built-in software, so you don't have to back it up to another location or worry about losing data if one drive fails. You can get more details at

Help: looking for Serialization suggestions (on strategies and products)
Hello,
I'm looking for suggestions on how to tackle a Serialization issue. Suggestions on tools to use, and approaches for "do it yourself" coding are both needed.
I need to serialize a large evolving codebase with a minimum of rewriting (overriding readObject... for each class is out of the question, likewise embeding metadata comments for all classes is also out of the question). Currently the codebase is using Java's default Object Serialization (to a binary array). This is completely unacceptable for the long term (object versioning and migrations are a nightmare).
As such I've determined that JSX/JSX2 looks like a feasable solution (the pricing is nice; the mechanism wrappers readObject, writeObject (so a minimum of recoding); they automatically map objects back and forth and don't require Objects to be constrained (with meta data, being a given format (such as beans...))). I was leaning towards Object -> XML because:
1) it is easy to read and therefore parse / upgrade / version
2) it would fit into many different types of databases without need of specalized decompositions (just put the whole object in a data cell)
however, management really wants to go Object -> tables. I am a bit leery about this but I keep hearing "we have no plans to move to any data technology other than RDB". Given those assumptions, it kind of pulls me in another direction. Namely a table serialization would have greatly enhanced performance (one could scan for objects with the highest value of some instance var quite quickly; with the other scheme it would be rather expensive...). So now I'm looking for suggestions on products that serialize Object -> table. The product at www.objectmatter.com looks like it might work well, but the licencing seems expensive. JSX/JSX2 might have Object -> table capability in the future but not now.
Likewise, loathe as I am to reinvent a complex wheel, I am looking for strategies on rolling my own object -> table mapping code.
On the one hand I think I might implement the serialization in a way similar to JSX (wrapper readObject...) as this would seem to give a direct route to the relevant instance variables.... On the other hand this would be even more slow than Java's current serialization, and I think I might go a bit blind parsing the binary stream. I could write some "stand-alone" that scans .java or .class files and auto generates a mapping file, then I could use some tool like Castor (however, given the complexities of some of my classes I think they might break Castor). The big problem is that my classes are complex and ugly (inner classes, anon classes...) so I get the feeling developing an algorithm for serializing them will be difficult and error prone. I was thinking of using Reflection and some guesses on getter/setters but now I'm thinking of using Java's security model (basically to turn all instance variables into "public" ones for my serialization routine).An update:
Actually Castor didn't look as "full featured" as I originally thought...
So for now I'm trying to write my own persistance manager. Its along the same lines as the article "Using Reflection to Automatically Map Objects to a Database" (which can be found at URL http://www.ajug.org/meetings/2001/DBMap.html ).
The cool thing is that I have permission to make my work open source (I think that will help my company and others). My project goals are:
1) create the persistance manager
-the manager can be easily extended for any backing DB (within reason); so not just RDB but LDAP.... This will enable the user to easily "plug & play" DB technologies.
-the manager will have a very simple (and limited) API similar to
serialization. Basically one will be able to save, delete, and
retrieve objects without needing predefined DB-Object mapping
files.
Likewise the user will be insulated from DB specific details.
I am going to add a "context" which is basically a level of
transactionalism (either the backing db supports it or you code it
into your db wrapper layer).
There will NOT be much in the way of query support.
2) hook into existing "bridge" technologies
-when I get done I want to see if I can get my auto-mapping & my
persistence manager... to "cooperate" with stuff like Castor,
Hibernate, OJB, TJDO.... This is a much lower priority but I see
it as strategic for the long term growth of the project (it will
enable users to transition from "dumb" auto-maps to "smart" custom
ones seemlessly
I'm going to open another thread about this on the forum. -
Looking for Adobe Audition 1.5 and 3 for Mac
Hi,
I am looking for Mac versions of Adobe's 1.5 and 3 versions. These softwares are long out of release so I couldn't find them on the Net anywhere. I am curious if anyone of you have any or can redirect me to the source from where I purchase/get Mac versions for these two versions?
Regards,
PawelThere never were any AA 1.5 or 3 versions of Audition for the Mac. Audition was completely rewritten from the ground up to be cross platform from version CS5.5, hence this version was somewhat lacking in features compared to the previous PC only versions. It has only recently become more feature complete with the release of Audition CC, which now also has extra brand new features for both PC and Mac.

Looking for App - Track roster, attendance, and availaility
I am looking for an iOS app that will allow me to put in my Teams Roster, put each players class schedule in, and then have the app automatically track who is available or not depending on practice time. This way when I go to take attendace for practice I will know who won't be coming.
So basically if practice was at 4pm and several players were in class at this time, I would want the app to reflect this when I went to take attedance for the practice.
It would be a plus if I could import contacts already on my phone, as well as use a calendar already synced with my phone.
Has anyone come accross anything like this? I did a prettry extensive google search and couldn't find anything that did all of this together.There is one. It's called iOweYou, it's in the App Store, and it's free.
