Love this but can I do something like this using Fireworks?
Hi all,
Saw this site recently and really liked the background, http://www.rareview.com/ the subtule colours and gradients etc. I do not want to recreate this in Flash I am looking to hopefully do this in Fireworks for my site.
I would love to use the image attached and add very subtle colors and gradients to this. Am I pushing it with Fireworks? I have Photoshop and never really got into it, its just to complicated for its own good ;-)
Any thoughts or advice would be great.
Thanks, P.
Yes I do have Firefox and I see what you mean. Hmmm I guess if you know these things it is very simple, posted this in Flash also and it has been pointed out there also.
I am toying with the idea of either trying this as a static image in Fireworks for my site or even venturing into trying to create a similar effect using Fireworks then Flash.
Attached is the image I love and would like that as the main image with only a third of it being displayed behind a solid header or footer, do you think in Fireworks I could add the type of subtle rainbow and vapor effect with gradients over the image?
My strengths have never been good with gradients and messing with colours in both Fireworks and Photoshop, I tend to make so much work for myself I then end up hating the result ;-)

Can I trust something like this?
Okay, I'm searching eBay for Macbooks, and I find this: click here
How can I trust that? $35? And no reserve? Something makes no sense....
And no, I am not selling this, I'm looking for a good deal.I've been selling on eBay for several years and the saying "If it's too good to be true it probably isn't(true), really applies to anything on eBay. Nobody is going to sell a real Macbook for $35, it was a scam and that's why it has been removed. Many times you'll see a post like that for ipods, mackbooks etc. and if you read close it will say something like "We will tell you how to get a Macbook for $35...." But the auction will have pics and info on the Macbook and make it appear you are getting a ipod or computer. btw Macbooks tend to hold their value quite well I sold a first gen for almost what I paid for it.

I have Windows 7 and for some reason I cannot install Adobe Type Manager onto my Computer. I need ATM to install the DIN font but am having no luck what so ever. I can see the DIN font in my Dropbox but it is showing up like this:- ._DIN-bold, no file file extension. what am I doing wrong? is it Mac?
(1) Adobe Type Manager (ATM) is not compatible with any version of Windows beyond Windows XP (32-bit, only). Attempting to install ATM on any newer version of Windows may actually disable Window's capability of rendering Type 1 and OpenType CFF fonts, requiring a reinstallation of Windows.
(2) There is no need to use ATM to install any fonts under Windows.
(3) The file name ._DIN-bold is indicative of a MacOS font. These fonts cannot be installed on Windows systems.

Both my wife and I have iPhone 5 and we use Siri a lot. Ever since we upgraded to IOS 7 we found that frequently we get a reply from Siri something like "This is embarrassing but I cannot handle a request right now". Prior to IOS 7 this did not happen.
tonefox is probably right. Server overload. I also notice that when siri does respond correctly, it is slower. My wife has a 4s and same story, and she has not upgraded to IOS 7.
So it's not just you (if that makes you feel any better). -

How do I drag an image around in the view, once it's magnified larger than the viewing area? I can imagine a simple "hand" tool like in Adobe PDF Reader doing this, but it's oddly missing in this application, quite a shame.
@Csound1 how is my mac relevant? I'm talking about software not hardware.
@Kurt Lang sorry, I composed the message when looking at "Preview" application help on this site, the fact that it missed the context here, is another issue I have with Apple's "famous" UI/UX design...
So for the record, I'm talking about the "Preview" app that comes bundles with Max OSX. -
How Can I Create Something In This Style?
HI guys, I am currently working on graphics for a mobile game I am making. I have some skill in vector, mostly through Inkscape, but I am trying to use Illustrator more. The thing is despite what program I use I can't figure out how to create something in the style I desire. I would like it to look something like this...
I can create the vector objects, like the saws,door, and chest pretty well, It is just the background and foreground in which I am lost. I notice they have a texture to them, with various colors, and almost a hand drawn look. Can this be accomplished in Illustrator, or will I need to use Photoshop? If so, how can I go about getting something similar to this. Are there any tutorials for work in this style, because I haven't been able to find any? Any information would be great. Even if their are any vector tutorials in this cartoon style, that would be nice too,since I can always improve. Thanks in advance!There are many ways you can achieve this effect you just need to learn.
Here are some useful links for you to teach yourself some trick and effects:
Tutorials - Adobe Illustrator - Digital Arts (lots of useful tutorials for adding textures & effects!)
How to Create a Cartoon House in Illustrator - Illustrator Tutorials - Vectorboom
Hope these help you achieve what you want. -
Does Something Like This Exist Already (for Window Managers)
I know that one can use idesk to produce launchers for desktop programs in window managers like Openbox, but what about an actual small file manager, that always sits on the desktop, confined to its own little space. Kind of like conky, if this makes sense.
I don't have a great deal of programming knowledge, just basics, but I've toyed with the idea of making a script to constantly reedit the idesk config file to do this, and while it could work, it's messy at best, and doesn't provide the same desired effect that a small desktop folder sitting on the WM desktop would.
If this does exist, I give my apologies, but I did try to search Google for it, but got junk results. Also, would something like this be feasible? (I am looking for a way to improve my programming skills over the summer, and was thinking that this could possibly be a way to do it.) Even further, would it be acceptable to use Python for it?whoops wrote:
Hi!
I don't really get what you mean... the Desktop usually is a file manager, isn't it? I'm not sure if Thunar draws the desktop, but Nautilus can even be pretty bitchy if something else (like conky) wants to have a piece. I didn't care enough about rox and its "everything's a folder"-philosophy to take a really close look at it, but there was an option to have it provide a desktop, too, if I remember right. And rox sounded/looks a lot, as it would provide the most "normal filemanager" behaviour when providing the Desktop (didn't try though - maybe I will).
http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/5576/shot0004bvb.jpg
Did my best to try to elaborate by using an example there on a screenshot of my desktop. (A sloppy edit done in the GIMP)
EDIT: What I would be looking for is something contained to that spot, so that way, if I were to right click inside of the rectangle, such as on a file, I would get options with what to open the file, or something else, even copy, cut, paste, or delete. However, if I were to right click outside of the rectangle, I would get my openbox menu. Hope this helps make more sense.

How to make something like this in Edge Animate?
Hi,
I'm hoping to make something like this – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJeDppEHI1g – in Edge Animate but I'm not sure where to start.
I'm new to Edge but am keen to explore.
Anyone have any feedback on whether:
1. It's possible, and
2. What techniques/effects have been used.
Thanks!Hi there and welcome,
Could you be a little more specific on what it is exactly that you would want to create? Most of what I can see from that website is doable in Edge Animate, but if you specify what it is you'd like to accomplish I could walk you through how to do it.
Thanks! -
Anyone know how to create something like this?
I've been asked to make something like
this
except for newsletters instead of business cards. If anyone
has seen any tutorials covering anything like this I would love to
hear about them, or if you have some ideas of how to start.
I tried using image swap for the background and writing over
it using layers but realized I wouldn't know which background they
chose and the text on the layer won't move to accomidate each
template. Is this something that needs to be done in Flash? Any
advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
ChrisThis page appears to be done with javascript and ASP.net. The
