Web Graphics Layout for Joomla!

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 17:46:11 -0400

My experience is in print design, but I'm trying to teach myself web graphics. I am not ready to dive into the development side of things yet, like coding. I want to get the graphics side down before I attempt to wrap my head around that stuff.

I'm looking for some insight and tips on creating layouts for templates to be used with Joomla or Wordpress.

A friend of mine works for a website development company and they are prospecting me as a potential hire in a few months. They are currently working to utilize Joomla in their workflow. So I want to be prepared to impress them a bit.

Thanks!

Button Firefox

Sat, 19 Sep 2009 06:01:32 -0400

Hallo,
I often use Firefox, a great browser, and sometimes go to Tools - Options - Security - saved password to read and erase the passwords for the sites that I visit.
Do you know if there is a way to shorten this path, maybe insert something in the toolbar to speed up this task?
Thank you

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone would happen to know how to use SOAP in PHP. I have looked all over the internet and have found nothing that I can get to work.

http://tnwebservicespublic-test.ticketsoft...esXML.asmx?WSDL
That is the wsdl file, but I have no idea how to get it to work.

Any help will be greatly appreciated! :]

We have a fairly new site http://www.bumperstickerz.com which we are looking to expand with better designs, more sticker art and funny original ideas to replace a lot of what is currently on the site which is a lot of recycled phrases and designs from the web.

We're looking for talented artists to be contributors to our new site's content. We pay a flat commission for every sticker sold through our site. There is no limit on earnings and the commission is the same no matter how many of your designs are sold through our site.

If you have any comments, questions or suggestions, please let us know at info@bumperstickerz.com

X/HTML 5, XHTML 2: A Conesus of Usage?

Fri, 12 Jun 2009 12:17:38 -0400

So there is a projected release of 2010 for X/HTML 5.
A possible 5-10 year release projection for XHTML 2.

X/HTML 5 is already usable - so I wonder:
What is everyone using/planning on using?
Are the edgy developers of today already making the swap or are we sticking with our guns until an official release date?
Are these considered bleeding edge and not to be used in production environments?

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML_5 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XHTML#XHTML_2.0

* I personally am leaning towards X/HTML5 for the use of the canvas tag. I've already generated graphs on the fly with it using Javascript. The possible uses for it are endless.

Developers don't need to rely on flash to get visual data dynamically generated. But this makes it easier to obtain those visual representations.

CSS design collab?

Mon, 25 May 2009 14:53:04 -0400

Hi there community of artician.com
I'm turning to you with a question. I'm thinking of making my own personal CSS template, I have an idea, I know how to do it but I don't know how to code it and afterwards import it to artician. My question is if there is someone who would be so kind and code it for me if I'll make one. That's all for now people.

Stay artistic at any cost.

Peace out.

Leaving Your Other Social Networks

Tue, 19 May 2009 08:23:16 -0400

From the creation of this account I could tell that my social networking experience was going to change for good. And all I have to say is, ITS ABOUT DAMN TIME! I'm sure I am not alone when I say that I am tired of the overzealous, over glorified networks we are all used to. Granted every one had its own use and function in itself.

Myspace: Do I really have to give any input on this one!?

deviantArt: Now Ill give credit where credit is due. deviantArt isn't a bad network, but for those looking for exposure, advanced critique, and a good user experience beyond people they know you might as well walk away. deviantArt's network seems to pride itself on it's members of a higher skill set, those with the cash to advertise there art and prints rather then raw talent, and own corporate deals. This leaves all that undiscovered talent in the background on a shelf in a dark hallway closet of this mansion of a network to collect dust. Not to say that you wont get a nice little update almost daily about favored works though =D But don't expect an intelligent critique to come along (Basicly "OMG SO PRETTY!" said a million different ways) very often regardless of a subscription.

Facebook: I never really got into the whole Facebook trend. Granted about three months ago I create my account to see what it was all about and saw it as nothing but a rearranged version of myspace (well now vica verca considering Myspace development is taking ideas such as integrated chat features from Facebook and implementing them into there network) without the extreme customization abilities. But where it lacked in customization it made up for in ease and a smooth looking general user interface.

So as of late I find myself ignoring my Myspace updates (haven't even logged in, in about two days) quickly glancing at my unintelligent deviantArt comments and multitude of favorites without a single word. =) Simply put I have MOVED TO ARTICIAN! Created a brand new shiny "clean" and "dirty" badge to display upon those left behind social networking sites and called it a done deal! You can find those badges right here!

Joomla! CMS

Mon, 18 May 2009 22:29:03 -0400

Just thought it would be a good idea to start a thread like this for this CMS. It is very popular and a lot of people are currently using it.
If you have any questions, ask them here and Ill try to answer them to the best of my ability.

If you have been using Joomla! for a while then it would be good if others could answer questions or correct me in case I am wrong.

There are no stupid questions when it comes to CMS, there are questions that you will ask only once though

-Boris

[Note: I pretty much know all the extensions that came out in the past 5 months, so if you have a problem with one or are thinking of something to use then ask about that as well.]

If this thread picks up it would be nice if someone pinned it.

OpenDNS Caching

Wed, 13 May 2009 01:33:38 -0400

For those of you who don't know...you can actually request OpenDNS to update it's cache by going here: OpenDNS Cache Checker

OpenDNS gives you unique insight and control into how OpenDNS resolves your domain with OpenDNS CacheCheck. If you are moving a domain from one DNS host to another, CacheCheck can help you make that transition smoother. In effect, you tell OpenDNS to "refresh now," ahead of Time-To-Live (TTL) expiration.

XHTML DOCTYPES & Templates

Wed, 13 May 2009 01:31:07 -0400

A place I frequent often.
This is a simple site that has some snippets of the basic XHTML skeletal structure.

http://xhtmldoctype.com/

QUOTE

A collection of XHTML DOCTYPES and ready to use document templates that I created after being frustrated by the difficulty of finding such things in one place online. All XHTML 1.0 variants (strict, transitional & frameset) as well as XHTML 1.1 are present. I hope they prove useful to others in addition to myself.

Enjoy!

A Comprehensive Introduction to Web Development

Tue, 12 May 2009 09:31:43 -0400

Pretty much anyone interested in web design and development has heard of Smashing Magazine. I just wanted to bring forth another gem of the site that's on their forums: http://forum.smashingmagazine.com/post12915.html

The post discusses a free course on web development and web standards offered by Opera and the importance of knowing such standards. Helps put things in perspective and give you a plan to start on, so you feel at least a bit organized.

It's really helped me so I hope it helps others. G'luck!

Showcasiing Websites on This Site??

Thu, 07 May 2009 15:05:58 -0400

Hello. I'm new to this site and would like to pay my compliments to it's creators. It is awesome.

I'm hoping it can help me to get some work and I'm looking to get some direction and advice from users.

Just a little background on myself...

I come from a software engineering background: mainly embedded realtime, unix based systems designed using OO and implemented in C++. I have experience with tcp/ip based distributed software systems with web based clients, databases, Linux system and application software, device drivers and of course CGI software.

During my career in software development I have always dabbled in web development, primarily back-end. I've been on the net since it's inception, used to use gopher and had my first web page in 1993. Long story short, I left the marketplace for several years and during that time delved more deeply into web design/development and have done a little bit of freelance work at this point. When I look around at what other designers are doing I want to raise my own bar. I'm looking for help and for opportunities.

My experience is broad rather than deep. I can do a bit of everything, but nothing that well. I would like to find some work where I can deepen my knowledge of any of the following areas: 1) Ruby on Rails, 2) PHP/mySql, 3) Design: I.e. using Photoshop to create good looking mockups, Fireworks to move to HTML and CSS, and how to do that quickly and effectively.

So in general I'm just looking for some guidance from other developers on how to make that happen.

Specifically, I'm wondering how web developers are using this site to showcase websites they have developed. I can upload a screen shot of a site, but I see know where to actually link to that site when I Submit a website.

Thank you and I look forward to hooking up with other developers here.

All the best!

New Portfolio Help

Wed, 06 May 2009 06:05:52 -0400

Hey guys, I'm new here and was wondering if anyone would be able to help me out with something. I am creating a new web portfolio and have been having a hard time getting something to work. Here is the mock-up of what it is supposed to look like when finished. The thing that I am having trouble with is getting the blue border on the links over on the right to go above the other background image. You can see what I mean here. I have tried everything I can think of, from positioning and z-index to re-working the layout of the page. Nothing has worked so far. Thanks in advanced. All comments are appreciated. :]

Anyone want in on a brand new open source project?

Sun, 03 May 2009 12:32:13 -0400

WE NEED YOUR HELP! - GraphixBase is undertaking a large scale open source development, we are in the very early stages of the project and need talented and willing developers to get involved and help us achieve new a glorious tool for the whole world of design to benefit from.

The Project

Name: "Climax" (CLient MAnagement) - Subject to change.
Features: The system we are aiming to achieve will have some of the following features and many more.

* Front end and back end user interfaces
* User accounts and authentication
* Security
* Easy installation process
* Structured and compliant code
* Documentation and Help resources.
* Live chat and commenting systems
* Download links
* Payment gateway

Description: The system is a client management system for design studios.

The system will work by means of communication between company and client.

The client is issued a user account by the company (generated by the system) and from this user account, the client can access details regarding the project or job they are paying for.

The customer can view previews, of the website/logo they require. Leave feedback or live chat to a designer at the studio using the system.

The designer can leave feedback on the clients artwork indicating changes or demonstrate various versions and allow the client to comment or vote which they prefer.

When a project is completed and payment is made via client and company , the system can provide a download link where by the client can access the products resource files.

Many clients can be added to the database, each with separate accounts.

The entire system is in essence, an online design agency in a box.

Interested?

Contact ben@graphixbase.com for more details or to declare your involvement in the project.

Please, do not waste our time; we are in need of serious volunteers only.

We may need to see some proof that you are eligible for the project as this is no easy task!
We welcome ALL suggestions and improvements to the project outline.

Free online creativity tools

Sat, 25 Apr 2009 10:45:16 -0400

Introduction
So don’t have money for Photoshop or Fruity Loops studio and don’t want to pirate them ether but suffering from urge to create something?
Well another wave of free fully functional in browser applications is rising with some features desktop apps do not even have And those are built in Web 2.0 communities built around Creative Commons which means that you can create/share/remix/browse/favorite/discuss/collaborate
So here is list of best example I know of.

Hobnox
Well this is tool built by Andre Michell(at least partially) that allows to create music of many types and has pretty cool interface and range of virtual tools.
Even if you are not music creator or not familiar with such way of making music you can still be interested as it includes community and support Creative Commons license which means that you can listen stuff for free, share and use it under some conditions for free and sometimes even remix other people works all thanks. Tough you need to register.

Aviary
Well this is whole collection of visual design tools. Not all tools are out and those that are are already pretty amazing.
It includes:
Phoenix – raster image editor alike to Photoshop
Peacock – visual laboratory. This one is harder to describe as it is mmm as I call it procedural/generative effect/image creation tool. You can use different filters/effects/transforms/generators available and combine them together to get cool effects/abstract art/fractals. If it still sounds confusing check video here.
Raven – and this is vector graphics editor. Not much to say here except that it is pretty decent editor.

And it comes packed with very well made community features. You can instantly upload stuff, use other creation licensed under CreativeCommons and it automatically show up sources from which work was made (be it effects or stock pictures or anything), shows derivative works that used this one as source and provides all other more common community features.

Sumo Paint
Well there is not much to say This one is clear PhotoShop but in browser, for free, with community included Again create/save/load/share/favorite/remix etc etc. Supports creative commons license which means that authors can easily specify on what conditions people can use it for free.

Wonderfl
Well this site is little bit strange and geeky. It allows coding Flash stuff in browser and publishing it under CC or MIT licenses which hallow free usage and remixing options so works are published as opensource code that compiles in browser. So you can edit/rewrite it and see results without need of Flex/Flash studios or any other complex products for Flash creation.

Aside from "in browser compiling" another cool feature is that it tracks who used what, which allows seeing how creations evolve. One guy created experiment, another took and used it differently, then third merged it with his own and we end up with some incredible stuff. Here for example such tree of evolution of code with cool results.

SourceBinder
This tool some how relates to Aviary Peacock and Hobnox Audiotool in terms of interface. Basically it is online tool for procedural animations/effects/visualizations.

Unfortunately I have no idea what license they use but they have features like sharing works sources and tracking of source/derivative relations among the works.

Onyx-vj
Well this thing probably is less usable but still worth mentioning. It is orientated on using video/animation remixing/merging to get something different. So you have number of “layers” where you can drop video files or flash effects/animations and manipulate those layers in same way you manipulate layers in Photoshop to get different result.

P.S
Probably that’s it for now. I will be updating this over time as I am shore there will be lot more to come Do you have something to add?

PHP Secure Image Uploading

Tue, 14 Apr 2009 18:02:20 -0400

Hi, my name is Rob... and I'm a development junkie.

This is my dilemma:

I've been googling for hours and I am nervous as to if i can create a secure PHP script that will allow the uploads of only JPG, GIF and PNG files.
I'm fluent in PHP for the most part except for when it comes to flat file storing, and apparently file uploading.

Currently I am developing a project that will be a resource for web designers to post portfolios of their work online. It will eventually be a high traffic resource. In order to post their work, they have to upload it righttttt? Ya well, not my area of expertise. I thought, and still think, I am capable of completing the project but I am outsourcing to you "articianors"

From what I read, allowing file uploading is like opening up a huge gaping hole for users to attack your server. I expect no less. I understand that hackers can create scripts within image files that can be executed on command, therefore solely checking for MIME types upon upload is worthless. I heard doing getimagesize() may be a way around that, to verify that the file being uploaded is truely an image... However, I've also read that can have a security hole as well.

Would someone who has expertise in this area be able to shed some light on my situation?? I need to learn! In all, I am asking; what is the best way to check if a file being uploaded is truely an image (jpg, fig, or png) and not something malicious

Web Design Courses

Thu, 05 Mar 2009 05:16:18 -0500

Recently I've been looking into schools for web design. What I'm not directly interested in which schools are best, but what the best courses teach the students ( whether it be Flash, CSS, techniques, usability, etc ). I'm interested in learning about web design on my own, so starting with what courses teach seems like a good idea. Any arguments against that are welcome.

Any online resources would be great as well. I'm learning CSS at w3schools and am already aware of resources such as smashingmagazine, zengarden, and various CSS galleries.

Thanks.

Question on Repeating BGs

Thu, 26 Feb 2009 20:29:17 -0500

I used to do some beginner to intermediate web design, but I'm still learning, so excuse the noobishness

So basically I'm trying to design some sort of layout with an image in the upper right hand corner. Content would be below the image. What I'm basically asking is whether or not it's possible to repeat two different backgrounds, one going to the left and one going down?

To explain in a nutshell (with the use of MS paint.. lol):

Layout?

Or you can offer some kind of advice to solve the problem with.. Or even a tut.

Just downloaded it and can't get this beast figured out. Me and Danny took turns playing hide and seek when trying to add each other last night.

Checked all my privacy settings and they're all good in the hood.

Now what did I break?

PHP Frameworks

Mon, 23 Feb 2009 20:54:34 -0500

Basically I need a few questions answered, hopefully by some of the devs working on Artician since the site seems to be pretty competently made!

1) What is your favourite PHP framework?
2) Why is this your favourite?
3) Where is the best place to find some documentation on the framework usage?

Specifically, if anyone knows which framework was used for Artician (or even if one was used at all) that would be great. I'm trying to get an idea of what is used frequently in the real-world.

Thanks in advance guys!

Congrats to Sev!

Over on my side I just learned of a horrific problem. Ok well no horrific, but really problematic.

The site I've been developing is working great. ......in firefox. I just learned the front images slides up and blocks the menu in IE. I've been fiddling around with the CSS for the image to figure out if theres something there I can change to fix it but it seems like IE just wants to ignore the code.

Traffic Marks

Wed, 24 Sep 2008 22:07:42 -0400

Traffic Marks is a web-based SEO app that identifies so-called hub sites that usually rank in at least 3 of the top 10 ranking sites for your given keyword. SEO experts say that just one link from these sites is more secure in getting first page position than 100 different incoming backlinks from unknown websites! Until now, tools that identify these sites belong to the domain of expensive software only big SEM firms can afford.
Traffic Marks now brings the ability to hone in and pinpoints these authority sites to the home user. Best of all, its free.

rollover images

Hey I was wondering if this was possible. I was thinking of using a rollover image in a section of my site but not in the normal sense in how the image you put your mouse over changes but rather when you put your mouse over a button another image (the banner image in this case) changes.

Does anyone know if this is possible?

PHP troubles

Thu, 07 Aug 2008 15:22:13 -0400

I'm currently attempting to point a page to require from different files depending on the category of who's logged in.

I get this warning though

CODE

Notice: Undefined variable: user in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\UHMSAC\content\div\5.php on line 1

Notice: Undefined variable: user in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\UHMSAC\content\div\5.php on line 2

Notice: Undefined variable: user in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\UHMSAC\content\div\5.php on line 3

Notice: Undefined variable: user in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\UHMSAC\content\div\5.php on line 4

Notice: Undefined variable: user in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\UHMSAC\content\div\5.php on line 5

Notice: Undefined variable: user in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\UHMSAC\content\div\5.php on line 6

the file that's spewing this out is as follows

CODE

<?php if ($user['category'] == 1) {require_once('5admin.php');}
              elseif ($user['category'] == 2) {require_once('5a.php');}
              elseif ($user['category'] == 3) {require_once('b.php');}
              elseif ($user['category'] == 4) {require_once('5c.php');}
              elseif ($user['category'] == 5) {require_once('5d.php');}
              elseif ($user['category'] == 6) {require_once('5e.php');}
?>

Any ideas on how to fix this? I can try to supply more information if you need it to help me troubleshoot but I dont know what else would be needed.

Working from home as a freelance contractor or remote employee can be a great thing, particularly if you live alone. But what if you have a spouse and/or children at home with you while you work? Every work environment offers distractions, but those who work from home with their families face a unique set of issues—and need equally unique ways of dealing with them.
