WindowBlinds 6
Heck, you can even add a flaming-spewing, animated dragon if your desktop skin is crying out for some orc-love.
WindowBlinds 6 lets you choose from several preloaded themes, can install more, and gives you control over most aspects of your interface.
WindowBlinds offers a generally compelling way to add some panache to your Windows XP or Windows Vista. It skins your graphic interface, offering a number of preconfigured themes that range in styles and change the entire look of your desktop. You also have the ability to make some serious tweaks to each theme, should it be close to what you want, but just Not Quite Right. No matter what skin you choose, though, it's doubtful you'll have any complaints with the appearance of the polished, attractive themes.
Almost as important as the available themes is the fact that WindowBlinds can install your choice without restarting your computer. When it comes to making fine-tuning tweaks to colors and font, constantly being forced to reboot could make the process take so long that Microsoft might come out with an upgrade for Vista before you're done.
One interface features a medieval theme, including a flame-breathing animated dragon in your Start Menu.
To assist in the process, the WindowBlinds publisher has made the program blur your screen except for its logo while it updates your UI, minimizing any confusion about why your machine isn't responding. Especially on slower machines, this can be invaluable in avoiding assuming that your PC has crashed.
You also choose from several toolbar icon sets to match your skin of choice and tweak settings such as the size of the taskbar. WindowBlinds gets high marks for performance: skins loaded seamlessly after about 30 to 60 seconds. However, the program takes up its fair share of system resources, and load times will depend on your system hardware, as always.
The blurred-out screen indicates that WindowBlinds is processing your changes.
To make more than cosmetic changes, though, you'll have to install the publisher's SkinStudio. However, the latest version of WindowBlinds scans your root My Pictures folder and lets you select your own wallpaper. Make sure that image you want is in the main folder and not a subdirectory, otherwise it won't find it.
Anything that can help liven up the Windows experience for both novices and those advanced users who've got better things to do than hack their system files to splash some rounded menu edges on the UI is a good thing. For the sake of making your screen look significantly less like 2002, WindowBlinds is definitely fashion-forward.
Yahoo Messenger 9
Yahoo is launched a new version of its popular Yahoo Messenger on Tuesday that lets you
forward phone calls and instant messages and watch videos and view photos with friends, among other enhancements. But probably the most popular thing will be the new emoticons.
Yahoo Messenger 9.0 has a redesigned interface with new "skin" background designs and new emoticons for expressions like "thumbs up," "thumbs down," and "rock on," (yes, the little yellow face ball is holding up its second and fourth fingers in the rock-star pose).
Beyond the surface, some of the changes are even more impressive. For instance, it's easier to call, text or IM contacts by simply hovering over the contact name and clicking. You can also click an arrow to the left of the contact and see a larger version of their avatar, contact them, start an e-mail session, and edit their information. And you can send a text message to someone's phone using your computer keyboard. These communications features were here before but were just not as apparent or easy as they are now.
You can also forward offline IMs to a mobile device and forward incoming phone calls to a phone number.
Sharing online map links doesn't open a new browser window, but displays the map in the IM window, allowing you to zoom and scroll around.
You can also send videos from YouTube, Yahoo Video and other sources, and you and your contact can watch the synchronized video via a sharing window, pausing to chat or replay.
The same thing with photos from Flickr or your desktop. You and your contact can view them together via a sharing window.
And file transfers between contacts can be up to two gigabytes in size, double the previous size limit. If you have Norton antivirus on your desktop, the files can be scanned for viruses as well.
Some changes will be instantly noticeable. For instance, the contacts have two lines now, with the status message on its own line. But you can condense that back to one line if you like. You can also insert emoticons within the status messages--like I could say I'm "in a meeting" and have the "sleepy" emoticon next to it with the "zzzzs" trailing up.
Yahoo is expanding the service to more countries and languages, too. People in Thailand and Indonesia now can instant message in their native language, and in India they have nine new languages to choose from. The service has been localized in six new markets, bringing the total to 25 markets reached.
Six tips to Organize Your Digital Photos
Organizing images or finding a particular photo can seem a daunting task. Having a digital photo
management system in place for archiving and cataloguing your images will make the process much simpler.Besides devising a consistent method for cataloguing your images, using a photo organizer or album software program will make managing your digital collection a breeze. While everyone has their own organizing method, here are some guides based on what works for me.
2. Archive Originals
Right after downloading your photos, it's a good idea to burn them to CD or DVD. This prevents you from accidentally overwriting an original image. You can always go back to your disk to retrieve it. To save space you can keep adding new images until the disk is full. Be sure to label the CD with the year and note the contents whenever you add new pictures.
3. Delete Unnecessary Photos
After you've archived the original images to disk, review your downloaded images and purge unwanted shots. Delete badly exposed images, duplicates, out-of-focus shots, etc. If some are a little over or under exposed you can generally adjust them with your photo software, so unless you have a better version of an image, you may want to keep some of the so-so shots and fix them.
4. Name Your Images
Create a new subfolder to My Pictures whenever you download new photos. Don't just dump them all into My Pictures. There are several methods for naming and structuring your folders. I like to organize my folders chronologically and put all photos for a particular year into subfolders under that particular year. Other people like to group their pictures by topic, such as Vacations, School, Sports, Baby, Wedding, Family, etc.
When you download images, your software will prompt you for image names. Be sure to use relevant names, not the default "003784.jpg." For instance, if I download a series of Halloween photos, during the download process I will have my photo manager software rename all the images using "Halloween 2007" in the name. Later you can rename individual photos if you wish. For example, by adding "Lisa_Linda" within the file name you can later do a search to find all images of Lisa and Linda. To make it easier to find certain photos, you can rename individual images within your folders or use the Bath Process feature to rename a group of photos.
5. Tag Images
To help you find photos of specific subjects, you can use your photo album software to tag images with keywords. They can have a variety of attributes such as date, place, occasion, and person. For instance, you could label a picture of your daughter Kathy at her 10th birthday party at the zoo using the keywords Kathy, 10, birthday, zoo and then be able to search for all images with these tags, no matter where they are on your hard drive. This is a huge timesaver in helping you find favorite pictures. Initially it can be quite time-consuming to tag photos, but most software will let you batch label a group of photos with the same keywords. This greatly speeds the process.
It's also helpful to tag images that need editing like red eye reduction, cropping, color adjustments etc.
6. Protect Your Digital Photos and ProjectsCan you imagine losing that cool slideshow you made of your child's first birthday? Computer crashes can and will happen. Back up your photos! Burn them onto CD or DVD. It's easy, inexpensive insurance. Most PCs and laptops come with CD burning software. Or, if you have an external storage drive, use it to back up your images.
Finally, don't just let your precious picture sit on your computer. Print them, email them, frame them and enjoy them!
