Building Flash Web Sites For Dummies

Photobucket



So you want to be a Flash Web designer, but you can’t design Flash Web sites in a flash? It all takes time. And it also requires a modicum of knowledge, which is where this book comes in. If you’ve read other Flash how-to books, you know that they cover the sundry topics like how to create really cool animations with Flash. However, this book takes you to the next level and shows you how to create a Flash Web site from soup to nuts.



About This Book

Here are some of the things you can do with this book:
Use it as a doorstop. (Kidding!)
Plan a Flash Web site.
Create a lean, fast-loading Flash interface.
Create content for your Flash Web site.
Create interactive Web sites with Flash.
Optimize and publish your Flash Web site.
Add eye candy to your Flash Web site.
Create an e-commerce Flash Web site.
Debug your ActionScript.
Sharpen your ability to deal with clients.

Foolish Assumptions
In order to do most anything, you need some specific tools, just a bit of know how,and perchance a bit of luck mingled with creativity. When you need to design a Flash Web site, you need the proper tools. For this book, that tool is Flash 8. And if you’re going to do cool stuff, like encode your own video, you need Flash 8 Professional.

Building a Web Site for Dummies

Photobucket



Maybe you already have your own Web site and you’re not quite satisfied with it. Or perhaps you’re still in the planning stages and want to know what you can do to make your site as good as it can be. You’ve been to Web sites that have all the bells and whistles, and you wouldn’t be human if you weren’t just a wee bit envious. Well, now you can have it all, too. In this book, I show you some of the best stuff around, and I tell you just how to go about putting it on your site.

About This Book
This isn’t just another Web-design book. It’s special. Really. I set out to write the one book I’d want by my side if I were looking to set up a really fancy Web site and not break the bank doing it. I tracked down and tested zillions of Web site enhancements and selected the top of the line to share with you. And I’m honestly proud of the results. I’ve authored or coauthored more than 20 books on computers and the Internet, and this one is my hands-down favorite. It’s full of things you’re sure to love. It’s packed with fun stuff, but it’s got plenty of serious stuff, too, like how to get past the hype and really make money. You’ll wonder how in the world you ever got along without having these features on your Web site.

How to Use This Book
Keep this book next to your computer and never lend it to anybody. It’s far too precious for that. Make your friends buy their own copies. If you need to make space on your bookshelf, throw away anything else you own to make room for it. When you travel, take it with you. Hold it in your arms at night and tell it how much you love it. Each chapter is a stand-alone entity. (Don’t you just love that word?) You don’t have to read the whole thing, and it’s a rare person who will read it from cover to cover right off the bat. Go ahead — hit the table of contents or the index and jump to the parts you’re most interested in. But don’t forget to explore the rest of the book after you’re done with the parts that excite you most. You won’t regret spending the time — you’ll find wonders in every chapter.

Electronics For Dummies

Photobucket


Are you thinking about building your own electronic gizmos? Ever wonder how transistors, capacitors, and other building blocks of electronics work? Do you have an interest in finding out how to solder or make your own circuit boards? Well, you’ve come to the right place! Electronics For Dummies is the key that opens the fun and exciting door of modern electronics. No dry and boring tome, this; what you hold in your hands is a book that gives you just what you need to know to make and troubleshoot your own electronic gadgets.

Why Buy This Book?
Electronics is a huge — no, make that HUGE — subject. Like any science, it consists of a lot of concepts and all sorts of highly complicated mathematical equations. For any really in-depth study of electronics, you need to spend hours and hours memorizing a lot of facts and figures.
But this book takes a different path. It provides you with just what you need to understand the basics of electronics, get to work building electronic circuits, and even tackle a dozen fun projects that you can build in under an hour each for just a few dollars. This book doesn’t pretend to answer all your questions about electronics, but it does give you a good grounding in the essentials and makes this exciting science fun!

Why Electronics?
This is a rhetorical question because you no doubt already know why you have an interest in electronics, or you wouldn’t have picked up this book. But we’ll take a moment to review the things that make electronics well worth your while. First off, electronics is fun! You get to build things that beep, whir, flash lights, and even move around the room. You acquire skills so that you can work with neat tools and proudly hold your head up at any gathering of electronics geeks.

Digital Photography All-in-One Desk Reference for Dummies, 2nd Edition

Ebook & Audiobook Photobucket



The future of photography is in your hands, and it’s becoming all digital! Not since the 19th century, when photographers had to be artisan, craftsperson, artist, chemist, and public relations expert rolled into one, has so much of the photographic process been entirely in the control of
the person taking the picture. Now you can compose and view the exact picture you’re going to take, using your camera’s full liquid crystal display (LCD) screen. Review the picture an instant after pressing the shutter. If your computer is nearby, you can upload it seconds later, view a super-large version on your display, crop, enhance, and then make your own sparkling full-color print — all within minutes!



When you go digital, you never need to buy film or wait while your photos are processed in a lab. You decide which images to print and how large to make them. You can display your digital photographic work framed on your wall or displayed proudly over your fireplace. You can make wallet-size photos, send copies to friends in e-mail, or create an online gallery that can be viewed
by relatives and colleagues over the Web. And if alchemy is in your blood, you can transform the simplest picture into a digital masterpiece using an image editor. Correct your photos, delete your ex-brother-in-law from a family portrait, or transplant the Eiffel Tower to the seashore. Digital photography gives you the power to take pictures on a whim, or to create careful professional quality work that others might be willing to pay for. The choices are all yours, and digital photography puts all the power in your hands. All you need is a little information on how to choose and use your tools, and how to put them to work. That’s what you’ll find within the pages of this thick, comprehensive All-in-One guidebook. The most exciting thing is how rapidly the technology is changing to bring you new capabilities and features that you can use to improve your pictures. Today, 2 megapixel (MP) cameras are difficult to find unless you’re shopping for a photo-capable cellphone. Even the leanest digital camera you’re likely to find in stores will have 3.3–4MP of resolution. I’ve tested models in this range that cost less than $150! You’ll find 5MP and 6MP

Digital Art Photography For Dummies

Photobucket



In this book, I cover the art form of digital art photography. I start by giving
you an introduction to the world of film-based photography and how it
relates to digital photography. From there, I go on to cover the whole gambit
of digital art photography, from shooting great photos to tweaking them in
Photoshop to producing final output fit for a gallery wall. If that sounds intriguing,
this book is for you whether you’re film-based or digital-only or both.



About This Book
Here are some of the things this book will help you do: Get a fabulous, well-exposed photograph, no matter what your shooting conditions Tweak, edit, and enhance your images to create something entirely new-or just simply better than what you started with Produce gallery-worthy art prints Find out when it’s time to upgrade your computer to handle graphics work

Foolish Assumptions
I don’t like to be foolish, but to use this book, I assume that you know the basics of photography, whether digital or film. (I do sprinkle loads of photography tidbits throughout, so no one is stranded.) I also assume that you know how to use a computer and have maybe played around with Photoshop or some photo editor application. Most important of all, I assume that you have a burning desire down deep inside to unleash your creative side by producing — and even selling — truly artistic, awe-inspiring photographic prints.

Conventions Used in This Book
By conventions, I simply mean a set of rules that I employ in this book to present information to you consistently. When you see a term italicized, look for its definition, which I include so you know what that term means in the context of digital art photography. Sometimes, I give you information to enter onscreen; in those cases, I format what you need to type bold. Web site addresses and e-mail addresses appear in monofont so that they stand out from regular text.
