Fusker Fusker is a type of website or utility that extracts images from a web page, typically from free hosted galleries . Fusker software allows users to identify a sequence of images with a single pattern, for example: This would identify images pic1.jpg, pic2.jpg, through pic16.jpg. When this pattern is given to a fusker website, the website would produce a page that displays all sixteen images in that range. Fusker implementations [ edit source | edit beta ] Server-side fusker software extracts content (e.g. image or video) from its original location and displays it in a new page on the client-side (user's web browser). In addition, a fusker can also be implemented as client software that completely bypasses the need for a third-party fusker web site. Criticism [ edit source | edit beta ] Visitors to a fusker website frequently see copyrighted pornographic images that have been separated from their intended context, known as hot-linking .
20 Websites Using Infographics Infographics is a visual representation of information. Designers often use it to explain complex things in a simple way. For many years infographics could be found in magazines, brochures and other printed materials, but now it’s becoming a part of the digital world. By infographics we mean maps, diagrams, schemes and other methods of data visualization. Actually, almost any combination of text and graphics could work well, and a successful infographics is the one that makes things clear and easy to understand. If you think that your website could benefit from infographics, but you need some inspiration before you get started, here are some awesome examples of how infographics make websites more effective and user-friendy. As you may guess, it takes time and efforts to create infographics that are not confusing, but well organized and informative.

SVG Logo Contest Entry From Root2art The three shades of orange can be replace with other hues to create distinct IDs for different versions and profiles. Click an icon below to change ID colour My logo in its basic form represents 8 nodes connected by 4 lines rotated about a central point. This is a simple representation of key elements used in all vector graphics. Dimensional Scalability The motif remains strong and distinct at any size down to 17px square. Colour Information Scalability The motif keeps its integrity as its colour range is reduced. Conceptual Scalability The motif in all its variations can be seen as a conceptual representation of scalability as it can be augmented indefinitely through a simple logic derived from its own parts. Geometric DNA of SVG Logo Not an official revision, just my own experiments
SHIFT-IT Coach | Become Your Next Self Editing Free Icons How to add mime types with IIS7 Web.config : BillS IIS Blog Ever wanted to add a custom mime type to your Web server? I ran into this issue the other day when I tried to serve up .mp4 files from my Web server and duh, I got this error: 404.3 error - mime type missing! Why does IIS block requests for unknown mime types? Well, unlike some web servers, we believe it is irresponsible to serve out random content. Thankfully, adding mime types is easier than ever thanks to the all-new distributed configuration option, which allows for IIS7 configuration to be stored in web.config files, along with asp.net configuration, to be deployed with your content. In this post, I'll show how easy it is to add mime types to your Web server. Scenario: Let's say I want serve up some h264 video and need to add the .mp4 and .m4v file types to IIS7? 1) create (or edit) the web.config file in your site's home directory 2) edit it as follows: Scenario 2: Let's say I want to add Silverlight-related mime types to my site/application? and then click 'add' on the Actions pane:
Using SVG with HTML5 tutorial Page created by Daniel K. Schneider, 1 April 2012Last modified by Daniel K. Schneider, 19 February 2014 1 Introduction According to Wikipedia (retrieved April 1 2012), “Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is a family of specifications of an XML-based file format for two-dimensional vector graphics, both static and dynamic (i.e. interactive or animated). SVG is part of the HTML 5 draft specification, i.e. If you want to know whether your browser can handle SVG and HTML5, look at this See the When can I use Inline SVG in HTML5?

Server-Side SVG A Survey SVG server-side, ASP.NET, PHP, Perl, JSP Christian Wenz Hauser & Wenz Starnberg Germany chw@hauser-wenz.de Christian Wenz is an author, trainer and consultant with focus on Web technologies. Tobias Hauser Hauser & Wenz Starnberg Germany th@hauser-wenz.de Tobias Hauser works as an author, trainer and consultant in the field of web design and web graphics. Two years after the first SVG Open, it is time to have a look how SVG has been accepted by the public. 1. 1. Despite it is currently mostly used in the field of geography, SVG is a web technology and therefore should be embraced by various server-side technologies. Our main interest is in built-in support. 2. From a theoretical point of view, dynamically generating SVG is not so hard. Since November 2000, the MIME type for SVG files is image/svg+xml, although some sites still use the old type image/svg-xml. The very same code can be used in JSP scripts to achieve the same goal.
serving SVG from your web server step 1: sending the correct MIME type To serve Scalable Vector Graphics from a web server, the correct MIME type has to be sent with each server response. MIME is a mechanisms for specifying and describing the format of internet message bodies. If the MIME type is not defined, some buggy web browsers like some Internet Explorers ignore the MIME types, and only display SVG files whose names ends in “.svg” as SVG, although the file extension shouldn't matter to the browser. To be sure that everyone can request SVG files from the web server, the correct MIME type has to be set. There are two methods to enable an Apache web server to send the correct MIME type: Add the following two lines to the existing “.htacces” file. On Windows 2000 Server, administrators can configure additional file types using the Internet Services Manager. step 2: referencing SVG Currently, there are three methods to embed SVG within an XHTML document: The embed element is not listed in any DTD. <!
SVG Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is an XML-based markup language for describing two-dimensional based vector graphics. As such, it's a text-based, open Web standard for describing images that can be rendered cleanly at any size and are designed specifically to work well with other web standards including CSS, DOM, JavaScript, and SMIL. SVG is, essentially, to graphics what HTML is to text. SVG images and their related behaviors are defined in XML text files, which means they can be searched, indexed, scripted, and compressed. Additionally, this means they can be created and edited with any text editor or with drawing software. Compared to classic bitmapped image formats such as JPEG or PNG, SVG-format vector images can be rendered at any size without loss of quality and can be easily localized by updating the text within them, without the need of a graphical editor to do so. SVG has been developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) since 1999.
