Recent work in The Gimp - Call for blog-contributors

hi everyone,
i went out to take some nature pics and took on of the tree group and one for the reflection in the water.
then i fired up gimp, put everything together and applied some layer-action in combination with the channel-mixer and the curves-tool:

i wrote a new tut just about 20 minutes ago:

some more recent work is to come:
a friend of mine was asking me to to some work on one of her portrait shots. so i fired up gimp and could come up with the following. i am rather satisfied although one could have spent more time on adding structure to her skin after smooting everything out but heck. i think it still rocks xD:

Nice work! Seeing that reminded me how powerful GIMP can be!

  • Is Firefox working on the OS BADA for the Samsung Wave II GT- S8530?

    I posted this 3 months ago in your Mobile forum: Hoping for a feedback from someone at Firefox. So far nothing. Can someone respond? Is Firefox working on the OS BADA for the Samsung Wave II GT- S8530? Any guess if there is something in the works for completion? Thanks
    I recently purchased a Samsung Wave II GT-S8530 mobile phone while I was in Thailand. It is a great phone and I would like to use Firefox on it. I was just asking if there was anybody working on this new OS called BADA? If so, I would really like to find out if it will be available soon? Thanks for your help and you guys have a wonderful product. I put it on everyone of my friends PC as it is soooo much better than explorer.
    I really would appreciate if someone from the Tech/engineering/or anyone in the know, side of Firefox that would respond to me on this issue. BADA OS is a growing platform serving more and more mobile styles. This OS could really use a Firefox browser.
    Thank you for your time!
    Wader

    Sorry, we don't have support for BADA. There are no plans to support it at this time.

  • Microphone not working during the phone calls

    Hi dear colleagues,
    I've been using my STL100-2 for 3 weeks and suddenly my microphone stopped working during the phone calls.
    It is 100% not a hardware problem because voice input works fine.
    The microphone works correctly when I turn the speaker on. And when I use the headset as well.
    What is wrong there? I tried hard reset, flashed my BB to the latest 10.2 and it didn't solve my problem: the other side could not hear me.b
    Please, help me as I cannot do a very simple thing - make calls on my phone without those freaky tricks.
    Thank you!

    I have a similar problem, I found that it worked ok after I made a Skype call to the phone or if I called the phone from my playbook using video chat it would seem to start working, then it got worse and I found if I squeezed near the mick it would work ok. I also saw another thread where they had similar problems and solutions were possibly linked to loose screws on the plastic casing around the area of the mic as the author suggests it could be an assembly issue. I plan to check mine when I get to work tomorrow as I have no screw drivers small enough on my person right now. Anyway try it you never know it may give you a clue to the problem.
    cheers.....

  • It used to be that when I created a pdf from a word or publisher document, hyperlinks worked fine. Now I cannot get them to work unless the text displayed for the link is the complete address and it all appears on one line. Why?

    it used to be that when I created a pdf from a word or publisher document, hyperlinks worked fine. Now I cannot get them to work unless the text displayed for the link is the complete address and it all appears on one line. Why?

    You can print to the Adobe PDF printer, but that only creates links that Acrobat or Reader recognize as such. That is the reason for needing the entire URL on one line. It is not actually an embedded link, but one created by Acrobat on the fly. With OFFICE 2013 you have two choices: 1. create the PDF with the print to Adobe PDF and then add the links in Acrobat so that they are complete or 2. I think the WORD save as PDF or XPS will create the PDF with links, but not sure. If so, that would be the quickest solution for you, but be aware of potential problems with the MS plugin.
    Of course, the third option is to upgrade to XI which can be done with AA 9. You will probably not be eligible for a for an upgrade to whatever the next version will be.

  • Suddenly the apps I downloaded won't work. The screen "blinks" for a second as if the app is loading, and then returns to the home screen. All the apps that came with the iPod seem to be working fine. How to get them all working again?

    Suddenly the apps I downloaded won't work. The screen "blinks" for a second as if the app is loading, and then returns to the home screen. All the apps that came with the iPod seem to be working fine. How to get them all working again?

    First try a hard reset.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If still no luck, try downloading another free app from the App Store.

    Lastly, try to restore the iPod from a previous backup or restoring it to factory settings.

  • I tried every single procedure to get my iPhone 5 turn on but none would work including the hard restart (for over 2 minutes, that's how much I'm desperate), connecting it to itunes, connecting it to a dock, everything! ANYTHING ELSE I CAN DO?

    If nothing else is working you can try to put it into recovery mode and restore it that way. Plug in you cable to your computer and make sure your phone is off...hold the home button while you plug the cable into your phone, continue holding the button until a logo pops up showing itunes and cord going towards it, then you can let go of your home button and itunes will prompt you that it detects a phone in recovery mode and make you restore it

  • Calling spclientcontext.executeQueryAsync works on the first call, but fails on the second call

    I have a webpart that I'm using to display a tree of folders and files from a SharePoint list. When a folder is clicked, some client side code is used to expand the contents of the folder (the code queries the SharePoint list for any child items of the folder).
    The code works the first time the folder is clicked. However, if I then click on a sub folder, the code fails. If I click on the sub folder a second time, the code succeeds. This pattern continues - every second time I call my function, it fails.
    E.g.
    First Click (clicked on Guides), which succeeds, and expands the Guides folder. Second Click (clicked on "In Progress") (fails)
    Third Click (clicked on In Progress) (succeeds)
    Any ideas why this might happen?
    My code looks like this:
    var _dweb;
    var _dlist;
    var _dwebId;
    var _dlistId;
    var _dfolderUrl;
    var _dchildContainerId;

    childElement.css("display", "block");
    } else {
    parentElement.attr("expanded", "0");
    childElement.css("display", "none");
    return;
    if (childElement.attr("dataretrieved") == "0") {
    GetData(webId, listId, folderUrl, childContainerId, actionContainerId);
    function GetData(webId, listId, folderUrl, resultsElementId, actionContainerId) {
    if(_rtdocsJsInQuery==1)
    alert('Please wait for the previous action to finish, before trying again.');
    _rtdocsJsInQuery = 1;

    I fixed this problem by initialising the clientcontext object with a URL (rather than using the get_current property). This suits my needs, as the web that the page the webpart is on, won't always be in the same web as the list.
    I'm still unsure why  "var context = SP.ClientContext.get_current();" fails every second time?!
    Here's the snippet of code I changed, for others reference (namely "var ctx = new SP.ClientContext('/weburl');"):
    function GetData(webId, listId, folderUrl, resultsElementId, actionContainerId) {
    if(_rtdocsJsInQuery==1)
    alert('Please wait for the previous action to finish, before trying again.');
    return;
    _rtdocsJsInQuery = 1;
    _dchildContainerId = resultsElementId;
    _dactionContainerId = actionContainerId;
    _dwebId = webId;
    _dlistId = listId;
    ShowActionContainer(actionContainerId);
    try {
    var ctx = new SP.ClientContext('/eog');
    _dweb = ctx.get_web();
    _dlist = _dweb.get_lists().getById(listId);
    var query = new SP.CamlQuery();
    query.set_viewXml('<View><OrderBy><FieldRef Name="Title"/><FieldRef Name="FileLeafRef"/></OrderBy></View>');
    query.set_folderServerRelativeUrl(folderUrl);
    _dlistItems = _dlist.getItems(query);
    ctx.load(_dweb);
    ctx.load(_dlist);
    ctx.load(_dlistItems, 'Include(ID,Title,DocIcon,_dlc_DocIdUrl,DisplayName,FileSystemObjectType,FileLeafRef,ServerUrl)');
    ctx.executeQueryAsync(QuerySuccessful,QueryFailed);
    return true;
    } catch (e) {
    alert("Failed to execute query... " + e);

  • Does Av digital adapter works with the universal dock for remote control?

    if I only connect the Lightning to 30 pin adapter to the universal dock for remote control it works so good with music, spotify, Netflix, YouTube etc.
    but if I add the av digital lightning adapter to watch on Tv, the dock and remote control don't work anymore    what can I do? I want to watch stuff on tv and use the IR dock for remote control please help me what's going wrong?

    Thanks for your advice.
    I recently purchased a universal dock for my iphone 3g. It works great. I just had one question. When my iphone is sitting on it for lets say 20 - 30 minutes. Then if i press the buttons on the remote. nothing happens! If I then press the home button while it is on the cradle then, the remote, it plays music. There after lets say if I stop stop the music through the remote and again press the remote button after a few minutes it starts playing. So what happens after a long time. Why do i have to press the home button on the iphone for the remote to work. Is that how it is supposed to work???
    Thanks

  • Chdx + ChnNovHandle - only working on the third call?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to reduce the amount of values of a digital channel, recorded with a high sampling rate. Values are either 0 or 20.
    1. I am setting all Values, where nothing happens, chdx(i,4) = NoValue.  (This part is working - at least it looks like so / even though some Members would probably suggest to use "IsNull")
    2. Then delete the rows with ChnNovHandle.
    Problem:
    I have to call "ChnNovHandle" multiple times to make it work ! Why ? (Two times, sometimes three...)
    First time nothing happens? Or can't I see it, do I need another page refresh than "call ChnCharacterAll "
    Sometimes I do have the impression as if I had to wait some longer to make "ChnNovHandle" work.
    When changing to chd(i,4) = NoValue instead of "chdx" calculating takes much longer but  "ChnNovHandle"  works on the first go.
    Can someone show me the point I am missing?

  • How to send other parateters with the ajax call for rich:suggestion ...

    Hi
    For the component <rich:suggestion ...>
    How I can send parameters (besides what user fills in a field ) for the method
    public List fetchAjaxList(Object event) wich is called when the user changes the content of the input field.
    Put it in another way, I need values for two drop down lists that the user selects on the same page, this is because the returned list of the Ajax call DOES NOT depened only on the value of the input text field.
    Thanks

    Sorry, we are not writing AJAX like code. In conjunction with drop downs we are using the command "Autosubmit On Change" in the Design View of a NetBeans Visual JSF project. Than the IDE generates code like
    onChange="common_timeoutSubmitForm(this.form, 'tabSetAngebotsauswahl:tabAngebotsauswahl:layoutPanelAngebotsauswahl:gridPanelAngebotsauswahl:dropDownAuftraggeber');"  in the JSP. The whole page will be refreshed by a normal form submit than.

  • JFileChooser:  setFileName on the UI only works at the first call

    The file name on a JFileChooser extension with two customized file filters is set by the code below when it is called. When the filter is changed by the user, the file name disappears.
    BasicFileChooserUI ui = (BasicFileChooserUI)this.getUI();
    ui.setFileName(NameSuggestion);
    An attempt to restore the name with a listener is not working:
    public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent e) {
    if (e.getPropertyName().equals("fileFilterChanged")) {
    BasicFileChooserUI ui = (BasicFileChooserUI)this.getUI();
    ui.setFileName(NameSuggestion);
    Is it really not working or the name is being erased after the set?
    Thanks.

    Please?

  • Please confirm wether you are working on the SDK's for the new Jot Touch Stylus

    Adonit have released an upgraded Stylus and hence PS touch does not work with the new stylus to it's full extent that is it doesn't even have the pressure registered. It basically renders the stylus as good as a finger. Adonit have new SDK for the software developers and have not had a confirmation at this point from Adobe re PS touch that they are working or aware, I believe.
    I am requesting that the Adobe developers confirm their intentions re the new SDK. Can they confirm they are aware of it and are going to implement it or not. If so do they have a timeframe approximately.
    I would like to register my desire for Adobe to work on this and ask others to do the same. Note there are other discussions on this topic and I would like to add to the desire for this. I also ask that the suite of capabilities for this pen are utilised also. e.g. palm rejection, assign actions to the 2 buttons, 2000 levels of pressure, and more
    Adobe can contact Adonit at [email protected] to also confirm their intent so they can put it on their list of in development.
