Crop Images Contextually

Crop images contextually for faster downloads and higher impact. By cropping maximally and resizing you can convey meaning without slowing down your web pages.

However, we’ve seen many sites that either use HTML’s width and height attributes to resize larger images, or minimally crop and resize images to lose vital information. A better way to create images optimized for the Web is to crop them contextually.

Contextually Cropping

What is cropping contextually? Many times digital images shot for Web use have a border of useless space around the object(s) of interest. Rather than crop to just the film or chip’s border, crop contextually down to the minimum dimensions that still convey the meaning or context of your image.

Note how the author is now more recognizable in the cropped version (behind the sunscreen) and the lettering is larger and more legible. Most importantly, the image has more impact, with the subject taking up more of the frame. This cropped image could be shown with a smaller dimension, saving file size.

Resize to a Smaller Thumbnail

Once you’ve got your image maximally cropped, resize and sharpen it to create a smaller thumbnail image. To give the reader more detail, you can provide a larger version (cropped or uncropped) of the image linked to that thumbnail.

This two-step process of cropping maximally and resizing is what Jakob Nielsen calls “relevance-enhanced image reduction.” Nielsen writes that by combining cropping and scaling you can “preserve both content and detail, even at very small sizes.” (Nielsen 2000)

Extreme Closeup for a Sneak Preview

Some high fashion sites actually use only the important part of an image as a thumbnail. For example, just the shoulder or neckline of a style – click and you get the full shots with details. This “image tease” technique can add an artistic feel to a site. Let’s get up close and personal with our intrepid traveler.

Extreme Cropping through Rearrangement

In extreme cases you could rearrange the target objects and reshoot, or move them closer together in your favorite image editing program. The idea is to use the smallest possible image that still conveys the information you want to display. You may need to bump up font sizes to withstand more extreme image reductions.

JPEG Cropping Caution

Be careful when resaving JPEG images. Reoptimizing an existing JPEG can compound compression artifacts. It is possible to transform JPEGs losslessly, however. Lossless transformations (like 90-degree rotations and flips) require the dimensions of the JPEG to be a multiple of the block size (16×16, 16×8, or 8×8 pixels for color JPEGs). Lossless crops are also possible by cropping to block boundaries with specialized software, like JPEG Wizard.

php Automated, Installer, Launches, Resellerspanel.com, script

ResellersPanel, the synonym of free reseller web hosting, announces that it has recently launched elefanteinstaller.com – a new website, which offers detailed descriptions, demo versions and the free installation of more than 30 open source PHP scripts, among them phpBB2, WordPress, Joomla, Mambo, osCommerce, Drupal, Coppermine and many others, grouped in the following categories: Blog, Forum, CMS, E-Commerce, Photo Gallery, Wiki, Classified Ads, Calendar, Guestbook, Project Management, Client Management, Ad Management, Customer Support. The one-click automated script installation available through the new Elefante Installer website will help users avoid the difficulties related to the otherwise quite complicated PHP script installation process, which requires at least some basic knowledge of MySQL, phpMyAdmin, the Apache web server, etc., on their part.

Typing the elefanteinstaller.com URL into a web browser will take the visitors to a website where they can see detailed explanations of the functionalities of the various PHP scripts and learn how each script is working in real website environment through the admin and client demo accounts provided. However, if a given reseller’s customer opens elefanteinstaller.com through the respective link placed on that reseller’s web store, the Elefante website will also display the hosting offers of the very reseller whose store the client has been referred from. In this case the name of that reseller’s store will appear in the URL of the Elefante website immediately after the domain name itself, which will increase its brand awareness, and elefanteinstaller.com will in fact serve as an additional reseller web store.

Each web hosting plan offered on the reseller web stores and, respectively, on the new Elefante website, has been optimized to accommodate websites based on the various scripts elefanteinstaller.com is offering, and comes with a free website builder, free domain name registration and PHP script installation options, and a set of free marketing tools for boosting website popularity. Moreover, all users can download for free any of the Joomla templates and WordPress themes currently on offer, and create dynamic, content-rich, professionally-looking, multi-language personal and business websites, online communities, blogs or e-commerce portals quickly and easily.

Nick Blaskov, CFO of ResellersPanel, said that the new Elefante Installer website is designed to help people who would like to have a website of their own establish a successful online presence, that now even novices can install popular PHP packages and create a blog, a forum, an e-shop, a gallery or a guestbook in a matter of seconds, without having to possess PHP script configuration and installation knowledge or any server administration, web design and programming skills, and without the help of a professional webmaster, and that all accounts ordered through the Elefante website will be hosted on an entirely new in-house developed semi-cluster platform, wherein last generation Quad-Core servers distribute the load generated by the different hosting services between each other, thus making it several times faster than the widespread one-server ones.

Many php scripts available for download require that a mysql database be created so that data can be stored for use with the script itself. This may seem like a daunting task for a beginner. But don’t worry, the only difficult part about it is not knowing what to do and that’s what we’re here to teach you.

It’s assumed that you already have a web host and access to hosting administration like cPanel, Plesk, etc. We’ll be using cPanel for the purposes of this lesson as it’s commonly installed on Linux servers. However, most major hosting control panels have the same basic principles which can be applied here.

Log In And Create The Database
The first step is to log into cPanel as the user for the domain that your script will be hosted with. This is accomplished by going to http://domain.com/cpanel and replacing domain.com with your domain name. You then enter your hosting username and password given to you by your hosting company.

Once you are logged in scroll down the page to Databases and click the MYSQL Database Wizard icon. This is where we create the actual database. Enter your database name in the “New Database:” field and click Next Step.

If you plan on having more than one database the name should be descriptive to help keep everything organized. For example, for a database used for ecommerce you might name it ecomm. CPanel will add a prefix of your main hosting username and password so your final database name may end up looking like this: username_ecomm.

Add A MYSQL User
Next, we need to add a user that can access and modify the database. Enter the username you wish to use for the database and create or generate a password with the Generate Password function. Be sure your password is a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols to make it as secure as possible. Your username will appear similar to the database name as the hosting username prefix will be added to it as well. For example, username_dbuser. Once these values are entered click Next Step to continue.

Give The User Privileges
Now we give the user privileges so that they may actually work with the database. Usually, you will select the All Privileges box and this is satisfactory for most script installations. If you don’t want the user to be able to modify the database but would still like them to be able to access the records you would select the Select box and so on. Click the Next Step button to finish.

Congratulations!
You’ve just created a database and a user that you can now use with your Php scripts. Many of these scripts have a config file that contains settings with default values for database name and users. You simply open this file with your favorite text editor, like notepad, and change the default values to what you just created. This enables them to install the tables needed to run the script itself.

This video shows you how to make a login script work with a database. We use javascript, jquery, php and mysql for this. You should really watch the ajax videos to get a basis for this. Also you need to have a server to run this, watch the first video on development environment to learn how to do that. Towards the end i mistyped two things. I missed the double == sign in the if statement and the I spelled result wrong. Sorry If i went a little fast, I really don’t want to have any more part1 and 2 videos.
