Need a good looking Terminal font for small text (10 pixel)

*Update* look last post...
Hello.. i have a bit of a hard time, getting urxvt use a different color for intense coloring.
See this screenshot to know what i mean:
As you can see, Konsole shows a different color for intensity, where urxvt simply uses the foreground color.
Question: Can urxvt be configured to act the way konsole does? Chatting is not the same without this...

For crisp fonts make sure you don't set the font size in pixels, like so…
URxvt.font: xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:pixelsize=10
Instead do it like this…
URxvt.font: xft:DejaVu Sans Mono-7
It's subtle but I have found it always gives clearer results.
Where did you learn about the -NUM for font size? I just tried it and I like the results, but I didn't see it in the manpage.

Anyone find a good looking Terminal app for retina MBPs?

When I compare the appearance of Terminal fonts on the rMBP to non-retina MBPs or the MBA I actually prefer the look on the latter, because retina scaling means the display is always doing the equivalent of anti-aliasing the fonts. This makes the resulting fonts fatter and bolder on retina displays, actually making the text somewhat fuzzier and more difficult to read than the razor-sharp display of Terminal windows on non-retina displays.
Has anyone found a way around this, or is fat "bold"-looking Terminal window text just a necessary consequence of the retina display drivers not mapping one font pixel to one on-screen dot at anything other than (non-Apple supported) 1:1 resolution?
Here's what I mean by razor sharp non-retina Terminal display, taken from a 13" MBA:
Simulated retina looking Terminal window generated by anti-aliasing:
Is iTerm2 any better at this?

To answer my own question, it appears iTerm2 is capable of producing nice, sharp Terminal window text when antialiasing is shut off where toggling it seems to have no apparent effect in OS X's Terminal.app. :(

Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"? (OSX 10.10)

Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"?
I can change it for one conversation, but then it resets to the default, tiny font.
The preferences menu only lets me change the conversation font.

Hi,
As you may remember there used to be a Messages pane to the Preferences where the Font and colour of the Balloons or background and the Font text colour could be changed.
And there was a Format Menu for character, word and Sentence changes in the current IM or iMessage.
Those have gone in Yosemite's version of Messages (Despite it retaining the designation of Messages 8 the same as Mavericks' version).
All that can be done now is set the size of the font and this has been moved to the General Section of the Preferences.
The Yosemite version has also been fixed to using the Balloons style of send and receiving any type of messages as well.
Changing the Font would involved editing the Balloon.transcript file.

Need help in finding a font for a logo

I was looking for help in finding a font for my logo. I'm not a designer at all, so I'm calling on all the fine designers and folks on the Adobe site to help me out. All replies are, of course, appreciated and any suggestions/comments/ideas will be welcome.
I'm designing a logo for my film company. I wanted to keep it simple but not boring either. I put together the first draft of the logo using Photoshop CS3 and used Trajan Pro for the film company words (Panthera Films) and used Futura for the slogan ("Inspiration through Imagination"). While I don't mind the fonts, it's simple but, alas, too boring. I love the panther image but need a dynamic font for "Panthera Films" and a complimenting font for the slogan.
Can anyone recommend a good combination of fonts to replace the Trajan Pro and Futura? As well, I want to give the logo a nice presence without it being too loud, bold or jumping off the page. As well, should the font for "Films" be the same as "Panthera" or can they be different?
The image I attached is something I was thinking to use as a banner on a website.
Any help would be appreciated too with this
TIA,
Dale

Dale,
As I said, I like it too.
You may consider making it a bit heavier, maybe bold, for readability at small sizes.
It is hard to recommend a specific font because it should represent your company and what it stands for. Have you tried typing the name in a word processing application (Worst or something better) and then running through all the font you have? If not, that might give you a few new thoughts about the overall kind of font you feel is the right one. And then it is much easier to recommend something.

ISO good looking/sounding webcam for my aging 800 MHz G4 Ti Book

Hello,
I'm looking for a good webcam for my aging G4 Ti Book. Currently running 10.4.9.
I googled the web this morning and found that the original iSight camera was thought to be really good looking and sounding when it first came out, but that was a few years ago.
Does anyone have any info on clip on cameras that would work with iSight and iChat that would be as good or better than the original camera?
Thanks,

Need 2x click or confirmation screen for calling / texting

This is a call out to Apple to implement double click for calling / texting - or at least offer a confirmation screen when dialing from screens like 'favorites' or 'recents'
I can not tell you how many times I have initiated calls erroneously when attempting to scroll (or I've called the wrong number because I didn't hit the correct contact on first touch), and how many times I have inadvertently hit send on text messages before I was ready, simply because I was trying to type 'o', 'u' or 'p', or my finger just touched the screen in the wrong place.
The phone is all screen and it's really difficult not to touch it. The issue is that just touching the screen often initiates an unintended call or other action, especially if trying to operate the phone with one hand or while in motion.
Please chime in here to let Apple know that this is an issue that needs to be addressed. I know many of you are having the same usability issues. Let Apple know by responding to this post with your stories of frustration.
Thanks,

If apple would add that feature there would be allot more users requesting it taken off than the users that would actualy want it so I am sure that they would not want to add features just for a select few customers
There are to many taps allready up the point when you place a call, why add more
There is an easy fix for your problem: be carefull when you tap on your screen

I need a good portable battery backup for my iphone5. Needs to be small and able to recharge the phone at least twice before it runs out of juice. Any suggestions?

I need a small portable battery charger for my iphone5. It seems to eat the battery quickly and there are times when I am away from a outlet to plug into. Like I said it needs to be small, and rugged, as it will be out in the boat or out in the woods while hunting

Bought the same SRW2048 thinking it should be a good upgrade for the unmanaged 10/100 switch, but within the first two weeks, I need RMA. Then the new switch is starting to have similar problem. Some are trying to blame some network packets causing the switch to reboot. I have a pretty simple default configuration (plug it in, assign IP and plug in workstations!)
Here's my laundry list:
- Time is off, never come back to the right one and SNTP never really works. When the switch reboots, I get back to the 00/00/00 and it's a pain to the time right.
- I see ports going online and offline and lots of them. I know there are nobody at the office, so it has got to be the switch.
We do not have any complex network set up, just one SRW2048 to a ~30 node s network. One one side is the clients and on the upside is a pix firewall.
It's so hard to setup each time the switch reboots, the whole office scramble and lost work.
If you guys have an answer to why ports go offline/online, etc... or why the switch does a cold start, please share.

I need some good electric guitar sounds for Garageband

Garageband just comes with a few electric sounds. I need some software that includes a lot of guitar sounds, and I'd like to know if there are any of the Jam Packs that have this. I know I can buy software like Realstrat that will do this, but getting them to interface with Garageband can be tough. Anybody know if a Jam Pack has what I'm looking for?

Hi Pete,
Have you tried crafting the guitar sounds Garageband?
I ask because I frequently read posts where people are asking where they can find sounds and yet it has been my experience that finding the right loop is simply a beginning point.
Ultimately if you want to enjoy the full capability of Garageband the sounds will have to be customized and shaped to fit what it is you are trying to communicate in a particular music project.
In other words use Garageband to make the sounds do whatever it is you want them too.
Good luck!

I need a good DVD creator app for Mac

I have been researching DVD creator apps in the App Store and I am really not finding anything good. A large majority (80%+) have poor reviews and the others either have no reviews or the positive reviews are very suspect like the creators friends and family wrote them. I mostly need this as I work on iMovie projects and would like to share them with people who don't do You Tube or prefer to watch movies/video on their DVD player. I guess I missed out when Apple offered iDVD as standard software. If I see a trend of replies mentioning the same app I will check it out. I don't mind paying for it, I just want it to work.

I've requested this post be relocated to an appropriate Mac forum, rather than the iPhone Accessories forum.

Need a good flash video camera for use with my Mac...Suggestions?

I have been looking at these things for weeks, and have heard remarks about different cameras not converting over to a mac very well. There is so much noise out there about different Cameras. At this point, I think I have it narrowed down that I want one with removeable/replaceable memory cards, and an HD Model. Looking to spend not much over a grand for a basic starter kit (bag, filters, lens covers, chargers, etc) and camera with a 2 year over factory warrantee, with ample memory. I am driving Cross-country with my brother who is getting out of the military and want to be able to make use of the footage I get. I want a good camera that I can easily make work with the Mac editing programs without having to purchase a bunch of extraneous programs, etc.
Suggestions?

I have the Panasonic HDC-SD5 and it works well.
Be sure to pick a camera off this list:

HELP!Do I need pay another $400 termination fee for iphone 4 if contract will end at September?

I have a contract of family plan, and my line is the primary line. I am eligible for upgrading at the discounted rates my contract will be ending in September 2011,and I have paid for $400 termination fee without a security number. I am wondering if I am supposed to pay for another $400 termination fee or the Verizon will just extend the return date of my termination fee( only extend mine or all of my family plan members').

Nothing will happen on the day your contract is up. You will continue on as a Verizon customer UNTIL you take action to change that. Your plan will not change, the amount you are billed will not change, nothing will change except that you will no longer be under contract.
If you initiate a port after your contract is up, whether it is 1 day, 2 weeks or 6 months, you will incur no ETF and will only be liable for the monthly billing charge for your current billing cycle AND any overages if there are any. Nothing more.
If you are near your contract end date, there is no benefit from porting out before the actual contract end date, only penalties.
Furthermore, it is unlikely your contract end date coincides with your billing date. For example, my contract end date is 12/4/2014 and my billing cycle ends on the 15th of the month. If I cancel/port my line on 12/5/2014 OR on 12/10/2014 there will be NO difference in the amount I will owe Verizon as long as I cancel/close/port my line BEFORE 12/15/2014. Keep in mind, most carriers will tell you it can take "up to 5 or so days" for a port to complete, so I would suggest accounting for those days when initiating a port. In my case, I would initiate a port by 12/9/2014 IF I were port my line to another carrier.

How can I change the default font for the Text Tool in CS5?

Does anyone know of a SIMPLE way to change the default font in CS 5. I can't believe how difficult Adobe makes this. I have spent numerous time on the internet trying to solve this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Thanks Charles, I'm not sure where preferences are, I wish photoshop would
look at this, there should be a simple way to set font preferences. Perhaps
CS 7 will offer a solution. Thanks for your help
