Suggestions for best way to fade in image in DW CS4

I know there are several ways to do a simple fade in image effect on a web page in DW CS4. I've always used Flash and still love it but with the on going issue with iPhones and now iPads I'm looking for alternate ways to fade in photos. DW has the fade in effect in the behaviors panel but it acts a little strange where the photo loads and then does the fade in. Is there a simple java script that anyone can provide? Or does anyone know a way to may the DW behavior effect work better?
Any help would be so appreciated!

The best way to enlarge an image for print?

Hello
I've been designing for print for several years. Occasionally I design large display posters/banners (A0, 6-sheet, billboard etc) which use a photographic image. Assuming that the image I have is smaller at 300ppi than the final print, what is the best way to enlarge the image? Based on my experience, it seems that there are three options (to make it simple, the example here assumes that my image is exactly half the size it needs to be printed at. I'm also assuming that the file I will supply to the printer will be a high res pdf exported from Indesign):
1. Set up the Indesign file at 100% size, place the photo and have Indesign upscale the image to 200%. Export a high res pdf for print.
2. Set up the indesign file at 50% size, place the photo with no upscaling by Indesign. Export a high res pdf and have the printer blow it up to 200%.
3. Set up the Indesign file at 100% size, enlarge the photo in Photoshop to 200%, and place the photo with no upscaling in Indesign. Export a high res pdf for print.
I have been advised that having Indesign upscale the image is not a good idea, and I never do this. I guess that option 3 is probably best, with Photoshop doing the work and the resulting pdf being the correct size. However, it's not always possible to do this – some posters are huge which means that the enlarged photo and the high res pdf will both be huge files, and I think also Indesign has a maximum document set up size anyway. So sometimes I use option 2.
So firstly, why is it a bad idea for Indesign to upscale the image (as I say, I never do this, but I would like to know the technical reason)? Secondly, if the choice is between re-sizing myself in Photoshop prior to exporting the pdf, or having the printer enlarge a high res pdf, which is better? When I say 'better' I mean in terms of the quality/sharpness of the end result. Also, I assume that vector elements in my design will not be adversely affected in either scenario, is that assumption correct?
Thanks

Sorry for the added confusion. It appears, after doing some checking in my CS2 apps ( InDesign), there is no setting for DPI / Output Resolution. Only Transparency Flattener Setting. See screen shot below...
If you select Postscript File in the Print Presets, you can access resolution settings for transparency flattening there, too...
in the "Advanced" tab dialog...
But, I like having the option in Illustrator 10 File > Document Setup where I can set the output resolution to whatever is appropriate. In this case ( below ) I've got it set for 5080dpi / 300ppi. You also have Effect > Document Raster Effect Setting where you can select 300ppi ( see screen shot below )...
...and Raster Effects Resolution setting...
I may have misled you because the apps I have are not CS6; but you should be able to follow along in your CS6 apps in various settings dialogs. Mainly, resolution settings can be set in the Print dialog boxes.
The main thing to keep in mind is, because you are enlarging upon output, the base scaled down file must have enough resolution to maintain its appearance at the final size. In the case of 50% or 25% file resolution should be maximum ( for current apps it appears 300ppi is considered high resolution. Most apps now leave output resolution setting adjusted in the RIP / Print driver.
I still use Distiller because it allows me to setup custom PDF settings and save them for future use. You very well may be able to do that in CS6 apps; but I have a tried-and-true workflow that utilizes Distiller as a personal preference.

Can you suggest a best way to store and read arabic from oracle database?

Hi ,
can you suggest a best way to store and read arabic from oracle database?
My oracle database is Oracle Database 10g Release 10.1.0.5.0 - 64bit Production on unix HP-UX ia64.

I have presently stored the data in nvarchar2 field. But i am not able to display it correctly.

Using the national characterset should work but there are other factors that you have to consider when working with NCHAR/NVARCHAR2/NCLOB.
If possible, changing the characterset is usually the best solution if it's a possiblity for you.
For more info:
Dear Gurus: Can u pls explain the difference between VARCHAR2 & NVARCHAR2??

Best way to extract all images from Messages?

My iPad freaked out earlier today and unfortunately I had to do a recovery and restore (from iCloud backup). I say unfortunately because I was 90% certain I was not backing up photos/video (and there was no way to check before doing the restore). And indeed I had photo/video backup turned off.
I'm mostly back to normal now, except for all the lost photos/videos. I've gone through some of Messages to Save ones I sent there.
What is the best way to extract all images from past Messages so I don't have to tediously load earlier messages? I understand there are some programs that allow one to go through a local backup and go through messages. But for this I suppose I'd first need to make a local backup of everything, no? Are those programs able to extract just images I've sent or do they grab everything (i.e. images others have sent me?)
Related, before I did the initial restore could I have easily retrieved the photos/images on the device through some third-party solution?
Lastly, and semi-off topic.. What determines the image name for an image in Messages? For example, I Copied a photo someone sent me via Messages and Pasted it three times back to her (all at the same time). The image filenames are IMG_6447.jpg, IMG_4820.jpg, IMG_0291.jpg.

Thanks Kirby. I utilize Aperture 3 by reference instead of a compiled library. So I have individual folder/projects stored on my laptop. By exporting as a library, does Aperture bring these folders and related images "with it"?
What I don't want to lose is any post processing I do in the field which creates separate versions and/or .PSD files.
Thanks for your continued assistance.

Best way to "transfer" Aperture images from MacBook Pro to iMac?

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro 15" to import and edit images (within Aperture and CS6 as an external editor) when I'm out in the field shooting.
I prefer to have all my images in one location and thus desire to copy eveything to my home base iMac when I return home.
What is the best way to "transfer" those images so that my homebase iMac Aperture Library can recognize the new masters and edited versions? Complicating this is the desire to "stamp" each image with a metadata preset upon import that I can do either at the laptop import or upon transfer to the iMac.
I know just enough to be dangerous but clearly there is an optimal way to consolidate and manage images when using two computers.
Welcome any thoughts from fellow photographers!

Best way to store digital images?

I have all of my digital images for personal and business loaded in my home pc (Windows XP, sorted in a Kodak Easyshare program). Recently purchased a laptop. All of my information from the PC was transferred/copied onto the laptop. However, I want to store the images on something separate from the laptop. Approximately 10GB worth of images.
What is the best way to store them for easy access to view and copy/print or for uploading to a site to print out pix for photo albums, etc.
Thanks!

The best way to store your images is to get a high-capacity flash memory device, preferably an SDHC card because they have a lock switch that prevents writing when the card doesn't need to be written to, and use that to archive your files. Simply keep it inside a memory card case in a safe place, such as a personal lock-box, and you're good to go. You can take that card to any photo kiosk or someone's home to do whatever you want to with the files.
Good point, I'm so ingrained against that particular solution due to the sheer amount of images I have (I can easily fill up an 8GB SDHC in 1-2 days when airshow season rolls around, plus I have an HD camcorder that takes about 8GB/hour), but since the OP only has 10GB total, making copies to 2-3 16GB SDHC cards and storing them in safe places would be an excellent approach. Choose one location (maybe the desktop or the laptop's hard drive) as a "master" and periodically back up to all the SDHCs.
Just make sure to choose a "master" storage location or you'll go insane trying to keep things synchronized.
Online storage solutions such as Dropbox and similar services might also be an option for only 10GB of data.

Best way to fade out multiple tracks at the same level

Is there a best way to fade out multiple tracks at the end of a song? I have read the manual and understand fading "A" track, but not if my song is ending and I want to fade out all tracks equally.
I thought I could export the file as a wav or MP3 (like I would do if I was fading out an Apple loop), then bring it back in and fade the track I import it to, but wanted to know if anyone else had any tips or tricks they use.
Thanks

Looking for best way to convert 35 mm slides to digital images

Hello Apple Community,
Am researching best ways to convert several hundred 35 mm slides into digital images. There are numerous scanners/converters out there but want to ensure I get the best unit compatable with my iMac (27 inch, Late 2009). Any suggestions welcome.

For scanning 35mm slides you need a scanner with a good photometric resolution and geometric resolution.
For the photometric resolution: Get a scanner with a high density range (D-max) value, to get a good resolution of highlights and shadows.
For the geometric resolution - sharpness and detail - try to get at least 3200 dp,i to be able to get good 8"x10" prints from your scanned slides, a higher dpi value, if you want to be able to print larger images.

Urgent Suggestions needed for best way to solve the problm

Hi Everybody,
I am working on an application which has to graphically show the data in the database. We are using JSP for the front end (the view for the time being will be simple, with text boxes and frames and DHTML) and tomcat as the Server. The data is huge and there ain't much business logic involvd (the user when he clicks on a URL I get the data pertaining to that particular table or column). Now my question is can Tomcat handle such huge data. What do u guys suggest, should I cache data at my server and server to the clients (instead of connecting to the DB for each and every request) If yes, can you guys please suggest a good way to cache data, I mean hat TableModel or HashMap will store data from different tables. Also the DB isn't updated for a while everyday. Also let me know if any of u guys still think a 3 -tier approach is advisable instead of the 2-tir approach
Thanks guys who made it this far

Well, of course a 3-tier approach is advisable. Also, yes, Tomcat can handle what you are doing. As far as caching data on the server, that is going to depend on your database and other requirements. Now about the graphical nature, you aren't going to be able to use JSP to draw graphics. The only way you can do it is to draw the graphics on the server-side, write out JPG files, but then the JSP won't know anything about where the image is, unless you always write the same number of images, in the same place, every time. Otherwise, you need an Applet. Hope that helps.

Best way to print an image multiple times on same sheet and not lose quality when doing so

Hello,
I have the full subscription to Adobe Creative Suite, but am unfamiliar with almost all of the programs. I have used Photoshop a bit, but not too much.
I have this project I do several times a year, and am sure there is a better way to do it.
I am sent a colourful excel spreadsheet - a schedule. I print a bunch of copies full size, then need to print 8 copies on a single 8.5x11 piece of paper.
I've tried several methods - but want to know what the best way to retain the best quality would be.
The best I've done (and I'm not totally happy with) is to copy the image into Photoshop, save as a PDF, create 7 more copies then merge as a single PDF and print.
I do find that the quality does suffer a bit.
Can anyone suggest a better way?
Thanks in advance.
Amber

With all the apps at your disposal, that is a long way around. Granted it is hard to not loose quality/data when scaling. But it makes sense to create the document to your liking, then create a new document that is 8.5" x 11" and place the original into it. Then using guides or alignment tools, duplicate that image.
This allows you to have full control over the location of each image, and extra data needed like captions, names, etc. and how that data is formated.
Luckily you have multiple programs that can accomplish this. Some are easier than others, some are more robust than others, etc. In the end it is what you are familar with and how much time you can spend on learning while getting the job done.
Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign are all your go to programs from creating anything for print and they can be used for other media as well. But that is their strong suite, print.
All three apps have their own dedicated forum on this site, so go ahead and mark them as your favorites as your questions for each need to be in their respective place.

Best way to layout multiple images on a page

Hi , I am a complete newbie to Dreamweaver and CSS, but am getting there :)
I have a page with a <div> #container that is 400 px wide, and is wish to install 4 images as a 2 x 2 matrix in this container. What is the best way to do this with CS4? There are other times when I will want to do a 2.x 3 image matrix.
I would appreciate all help and suggestions
regards,
Jill

My method of choice to do what you want to do:
Assuming that you want 2 side-by-side images (400 / 2 = 200), make the width 200px;
Assuming that the 2 x 2 refers to square-format, height will also be 200px;
Therefore, on the 2 x 3, width will remain 200px; height will be 300px;
Create a div format "box" that is styled like:
.twobytwo, .twobythree {
     width: 200px;
     height: 200px;
     float: left;
.twobythree {
     height: 300px;
<div id="container">
     <div class="twobytwo"><img [image code here]></img></div>
     <div class="twobytwo"><img...etc....
</div>
Because most of the properties are the same, I used a group selector for most of the property/values and added a single selector (.twobythree) for the one property that changed for the .twobythree.

Whats the best way to manage/display images ?

I'm building a yet another photo management application that is designed to be a Picasa2 "lite". I've got a lot of JPGs I need to manage, all of which are loaded asynchronously and cached over the web.
The same image may appear in multiple places, (i.e. thumbnail, fullsize, original with a zoom box, etc.) I'm having problems keeping all these images in synch when I change the underlying image -- right now I have to create all new JLabels for everything and add them to their respective Panels again. But that doesn't seem like its the best way.
Here's my JLabel sub-class:
public class ImageLocatorSubscriber extends JLabel {
     public final ImageDimEnum maxDimEnum;
     final ImageIcon imgIcon = new ImageIcon();
     BufferedImage bi;
     ImageLocator il;
     public ImageLocatorSubscriber(ImageLocator il, ImageDimEnum d) {
          super();
          this.maxDimEnum = d;
          this.imgIcon = new ImageIcon();
          if (il != null) {
               this.il = il;
                        this.bi = il.getBi(RunMode.NOWAIT);
                  if (bi.getWidth()!=maxDimEnum.dim.getWidth() || bi.getHeight()!=maxDimEnum.dim.getHeight()) {
                       bi = FotoFix.resize(bi, maxDimEnum.dim);
                  this.bi = bi;
                  this.imgIcon.setImage(this.bi);
                  this.setSize(bi.getWidth(), bi.getHeight());
          this.setIcon(this.imgIcon);
          this.setBorder(Constants.borderGray);
     }Is the preferred method for changing the image displayed in a JLabel
a) create a new ImageIcon and use (JLabel) this.setIcon()
b) reuse the existing ImageIcon and use (JLabel) this.imgIcon.setImage();
c) remove the old JLabel from the panel, create a new JLabel, and add that to the panel?
I can only get c) to work. When I try to use b) some of the images are not updated properly, even as I have declared this.imgIcon as final. Any ideas, or should I just leave it be?

override this method in any JComponent subclass
