    shadows

    You mean like a filter? There are third party filters that do this (I used to have one that I believe was from Extensis called Perspective Shadow). But in the end it was doing the same thing Welles outlined. I always found it a lot quicker to do it Welles' way (the filter took a lot of time to...

    Improving a logo for my dvd's

    What is this going to be for-is it strictly personal use? Be aware that there are copyright issues flying all over the place here...

    Visa Font

    Here is a high resolution Visa logo with a transparent background, maybe you can use it: I don't know the font but you could try scouring free font sites to try and find it (just google "free fonts"). I wouldn't be surprised though, if the logo was specifically done for Visa which brings me...

    Hiding the media player

    One problem that exists is that different people will have different media players. For instance, when I clicked on a song I just had a new browser pop up playing it as a Quicktime file. I'm guessing that the determination of whether a file will play in the background or not is mostly dependent...

    stock photos

    Just Google "free stock photos" and you'll get a zillion hits. Just be sure they're really free and that you use them correctly...

    Makin Glass

    You can also try to layer an image on top of the glass and make it VERY faint to mimick a reflection (whatever the scenery would be behind you as the viewer). Combine that with the white gradient and that should get you close. And I second (and third and fourth) the tip about looking at a real...

    Newbie looking for basic simple guidance

    Why don't you just browse through some of the beginner tutorials on this site? That's more than enough to get you started...!

    Silly questions

    "Multiply Blending" is one of many blending options that you can apply to various things. Best way to illustrate this is in the layers palette, selecting a layer and changing its blending mode will make it appear to "blend" with the layer(s) underneath it. There are many different blending...

    My own site finally up!

    Hopefully the original poster is still lurking the boards- It's well over 3 months later and spelling and grammer mistakes still abound (by the way, in the sentence that bugs everyone-and me too-it's "your" not "you're" [you are]) Very discouraging-for someone who wanted our feedback I'm...

    3 level graphic menu -> Rollover yes or no ?

    OK-I think I have a handle on what you're trying to do. Let me try to recap and see if I have this right: 1) To start you have a basic menu with 3 options. 2) When you click on an item a new menu appears (in the same place as the old one) with the original menu item now at the top and the sub...

    Beginner's first PS image, looking for criticism

    Here's a couple things you can try: For the white pixels between the jacket and the bar code, very careful erasing will certainly work. You can also take a shot (assuming the person is on its own layer), of control clikcing on the layer icon in the layers palette to make a selection of the...

    Font type question

    Since all the Es are different I highly suspect this was totally handdrawn. What exactly are you looking? The logo itself or the font to use in some other text?

    Teach me .CSS drop down menus! ;-)

    Hey Joe- Is this the kind of thing you're looking for? http://www.csscreator.com/menu/multimenu.php The template you posted actually looks pretty good (nice site too!). I found a lot of drop down menu tutorials on Google so I'd think it wouldn't be too hard to find-unless I misunderstood...

    Start to a site

    I'll just chime in by saying that while this is nice, it's generally best to put a user right into the site. Having a splash screen serves no real purpose and is more annoying than anything. I assume that if I clicked on "enter" I would go to the actual home page-so why did I have to click...

    How can I use a SPECIFIC font(s) with XHTML or .CSS

    Some more clarification- The "flavor" that doesn't download the font to the user's system is the Bitstream technology I mentioned before, so my statement that Bitstream's was "one company's solution" was a bit off-it's the only solution! Microsoft has their own way of doing it, but it's only...

    Adding a Hit Counter, How?

    Often times, if you go to a site that provides you with a free counters, they will provide you with the HTML coding to insert into your page (once you fill in all your info). Copy the code and switch to Dreamweaver. Open the page that will contain the counter, go into the HTML code window and...

    How can I use a SPECIFIC font(s) with XHTML or .CSS

    Here's something I stumbled upon, it seems Bitstream has some tools to allow a designer to embed fonts: http://www.truedoc.com/webpages/FAQs/activex_faq.html http://www.truedoc.com/webpages/intro/introduction2.htm Kind of scary, especially when you start reading about a player having to be...

    Optimization of files

    Understood-and certainly there are instances closer to home where you'd need to be mindful of page weight. For instance, I do a site for a non-profit company that provides computer and office education for people with disabilities-often from poor neighborhoods. So a portion of the web site...

    Optimization of files

    Just chiming in with my two cents- I too have heard that 50kb guideline for web pages, but I've been hearing it for several years now. I'm starting to wonder if it's time to rethink that limit and other used-to-be-givens about designing web sites. With the increasing use of DSL, modems, and the...
