    quick question - combining anchor points

    Thanks again SeniorS! I have been playing around with shapes for the last couple of days because I had a lot of design work. And all of a sudden I did find that elusive "combine" button. it appears in your top toolbar when you use the "path selection tool". I did some more googling, and I...

    quick question - combining anchor points

    You're probably right, it's probably an illustrator thing! Okay, this is just theory now. I just quickly created a shape: Two halves, joined them together and now in the middle of the outline, top and bottom, you will find to anchor points in the exact same space. How can merge the two halves...

    What is the best Antivirus?

    If you run Vista or Win7 my suggestion is Microsoft Security Essentials. Free and up to date, no speed issues. Depending on your system one or the other suite will always bog you down. MSE is virtually unnoticeable. Not recommended for XP though, looks like MS doesn't really optimise for that OS...

    Tab Color issue

    Ok, here's the usual way to organise a page like yours in basic format: 1) create one HTML page and save all associated files like images, CSS, scripts etc in subfolders relative to the pages' root directory. This is your template. From this template you will create all other pages. 2) have two...

    Website question

    Yes, business catalyst can definitely do this. It may need some studying on your part though. WordPress can probably also do it at all within the confines of a blog software. Even though I'm a big WordPress fan it wouldn't be my first choice for this kind of project. As per my earlier post...

    My site is down

    Always make a backup of your working site. Then work on development in a subdirectory. There you can test everything works. Once you make live and something goes wrong, you can always roll back to your backup. You cannot really take your site down. Only a server outage can do that. (Or...

    How do people color in this stuff?

    I agree, it does look like a scan. However to colour them is not that hard really. It's just a lot of work. Basically you need to select all the zones you want to cover Using your favourite selection tool, then colour them in. My approach, off the top of my head would be: 1) Since this is...
