    Mirror RAID 1

    I have a Dell PowerEdge server that I set up from scratch (I'm a web server newbie, mostly). It has 4 HD's. The C: is a RAID 1 and the E: is a RAID 1. Thus, 4 physical disks used to create 2 virtual SCSI containers. Before installing Windows, I used Dells' SCSI controller to create the RAIDs...

    FreeBSD 4.8, MySQL, linuxthreads

    I've made a newbie assumption that I need to install gcc (also available in the ports collection) I'm thinking this will supply the libgcc file that is missing for linuxthreads... Anyone have any comments on what "libgcc" is a part of? Is it related to "gcc" at all? I'm...

    Version of FreeBSD

    I'm a newbie- so this may be the right answer to the wrong question.. but my OS version for FreeBSD shows up on my Telnet welcome screen when I log in.

    FreeBSD 4.8, MySQL, linuxthreads

    I'm a FreeBSD newbie (it's a vitural private server, while it is shared in one sense, I have root access to my portion of it) Anyways, I'm trying to install MySQL 4.0 and am taking advanatage of using "linuxthreads" when I build it. Both MySQL 4 and it's dependent package...

    Opinions...HP 1220 Printer?

    I bought an EPSON 960 (I forget the actual number.. it's nine hundred something... ) earlier this year from Best Buy and have been very pleased with the output. No, this isn't large format printing. But you would be hard pressed to tell the difference between the output of this printer and a...

    How to create multiple color background with watermark

    oh yeah.. almost forgot... 16. Now that your background image is perfect. Go to "FILE" menu and select "Save For Web..." option. 17. A pseudo-ImageReady module will pop-up which will help you create a GIF or JPG file for the web. All of the options are going to be on the...

    How to create multiple color background with watermark

    I'm assuming you know how to create new layers and use the "dotted rectangle" selection tool. 1. Create New Photoshop Document (assuming most folks see web pages on 800 x 600 monitors, make your document size about 780 pixels wide by 410 pixels high - which is all the space you have...

    Sharp text printing? Blurry text printing problem.

    if you choose to save out the Photoshop file as a PDF, it may give you an option to save the text layers as independent fonts; which would help you achieve the affect I mentioned in my last post. I believe I have done this with mixed success. If there were special raster effects applied to the...

    Sharp text printing? Blurry text printing problem.

    viol8ion is right. Once upon a time, in older versions of Photoshop, if you wanted crisp text you would use another application like Adobe Illustrator; PageMaker or Quark XPress to create the text. Then, import the Photoshop picture (usually saved as TIFF or EPS) onto a box or layer, and then...

    Sharpening a blurred jpg photo

    As far as cameras go, I haven't shopped for anything lately, so I don't know what's out there. I just wanted to say that about a year ago I bought the Canon PowerShot G2 and have been EXTREMELY happy with it.

    Perform multiple functions w/ a custom function?

    To do most image processing like what you've described, I would definitely take blueark's advice. However, if you need to do some more complex image manipulation and you like to write JavaScript or VBScript, etc. You can download a special package (for free) from Adobe. It's called...

    How to print a banner spread on several A4

    If you have Adobe Illustrator, you can import your Photoshop document into a new Illustrator document (you may be able to import PSD format, or it may work better to save it out as EPS). In illustrator, 1.) create a new document. 2.) in pop-up box which follows: Specify the final size of the...

    Advantage of Photoshop to Illustrator

    ...icon at the far left, click the arrow next to it for the pull-down menu and select "Paintbrush Oval 45pixels Multiply" Use your Wacom to start painting several overlapping strokes with that tool and see how it compares to Illustrator. I find it to be a *very* nice watercolor effect.

    Sharpening a blurred jpg photo

    As for the little preview that the camera shows on screen... it's almost always sharp because it is reduced. So, if you're just posting something to the web, probably by the time you reduce it back down to web resolution it may very well look pretty sharp again. Reduction is a great way to...

    Sharpening a blurred jpg photo

    I find there's generally no making up for a blurred picture (although PSD's unsharp mask is very good for slight blur). For my digital camera (canon G2), if I use a flash, the picture is almost guaranteed to be crisp. However, a flash makes for harsh lighting and unnatural cast shadows. So...

    server side image manipulation Photoshop Scripting

    Has anyone ever tried to use Photoshop on a web server running ASP? I have installed "Photoshop Scripting 1.0.2a" which will allow the manipulation of images programmatically through VBScript and JavaScript. I'm wondering if these same scripts can be called by an ASP page running on...

    Access connects fine, but I got problems with SQL

    I've imported a few web applications into SQL Server that were originally based on Access, before. One thing I ran into was that any MEMO field types in Access that might be converted to a "blob" field like 'ntext' in SQL Server.. those fields should appear LAST in your SELECT...

    PPT Not Advancing Slides with Flash anim

    I have an issue with a presentation which I developed in PowerPoint 2000 (and incidentally is being presented on a machine with PowerPoint 2002, nevertheless, I get the same issues no matter what machine I'm on). My presentation, on the master slide, features a Macromedia Flash animation. It...

    Continuous sound in Powerpoint

    The first answer will be better than mine, but I notice that when I put a Flash animation on the Master slide it plays continually (and in my case, because I'm puttin a special animation into the background, it was important that the animation not start over and replay with each slide change...
