Animated Introduction to Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.5

Animated Introduction to Adobe Photoshop Elements is a help-book for users of Adobe Photoshop Elements. Tutorials are illustrated with movie clips showing around the program.

Are you looking for a video course? The 76 embedded clips may be played as a single full-length and full-size movie. The elaborated controls allow you to instantly find any fragment.

In the meantime, the book interface features most functions available in popular readers and browsers - table of contents, bookmarks, text search, etc.

The course introduces you to the essential techniques of the program - color and tonal adjustments, layers, transformations, selecting, and masking.

The full version of this book comes to you with 'Hidden Tools' - a patch uncovering undocumented masking and selecting functions of Elements.

Also the book suggests a collection of practical solutions. Real photos are enhanced, retouched, manipulated for you in real time, showing the most efficient combinations of the explained techniques.

Transmission 1.42 - BitTorrent client. (Free)

Transmission 1.42 - BitTorrent client. (Free): "

Transmission 1.42

Transmission has been built from the ground up to be a lightweight yet powerful BitTorrent client. Its simple, intuitive interface is designed to integrate tightly with whatever computing environment you choose to use. Transmission strikes a balance between providing useful functionality without feature bloat. Furthermore, it is free for anyone to use or modify. Transmission is open source (MIT license).

These days, bandwidth is a precious commodity. Transmission allows you to ration this commodity efficiently. You might want to queue your torrents for maximum performance. Or throttle their speed during peak periods. Transmission easily lets you do both, and thus only works its hardest when you want it to.

Support for Growl notifications and dock badging keep you updated with what's going on so you can get back to doing more important things.

If you are interested in helping out the Transmission project in any way, we encourage you to head over to our development page. The current developers welcome anybody who is interested in implementing new features, documentation, or translations.

G-Map: iPhone als Navigationssystem

G-Map: iPhone als Navigationssystem: "Schon jetzt lässt sich das iPhone theoretisch als Navigationssystem nutzen, indem die Google-Applikation verwendet wird, um Ziele einzugeben und sich die Wegbeschreibung anzeigen zu lassen. Mit G-Map von Xroad werden die Möglichkeiten jedoch so erweitert, dass ein iPhone zu einem vollwertigerem Navigationssystem werden kann. Über GPS stellt die Software die Position fest und zeigt diese auf dem eigenen Kartenmaterial an.
