С помощью Adobe Photoshop 5.5 вы сможете создать яркий запоминающийся образ и с одинаковой легкостью адаптировать дизайн к помещению его на сайт или к печати. Вместо адской смеси различных программ, необходимых для создания комплексного веб-дизайна, вы теперь можете обратиться к одному первоклассному продукту. Полиграфист, профессионально работающий с допечатными процессами, Веб-мастер или Веб-креатор - все найдут в Photoshop 5.5 набор инструментов для создания лучшего решения в своей области. Adobe Photoshop 5.5 предлагает серию новых возможностей для веб-оптимизации файлов, позволяющую создавать высококачественную веб-графику с минимальными размерами файлов: вы можете сравнить несколько версий файла с различными установками степени сжатия, цветовых настроек и установок браузера в новом окне LiveView. С помощью этого инструмента вы сможете точно балансировать между качеством графики и ее размером. (См. "Оптимизация графики для Веб" www.illustrator.ru/articles/ software/Graphics_to_Web.pdf) Photoshop предлагает новую опцию GIF-формата: сжатие с потерей информации, позволяющее сократить размер файлов на 260-50% при минимальных потерях в качестве. Пакет Adobe Photoshop 5.5 включает в себя компонент ImageReady 2.0 для решения "продвинутых" веб-задач, таких как резка изображений на составные части, создание ролловеров, динамическая анимация и image maps. Этот компонент настолько интегрирован с Photoshop, что вы без труда будете работать с ними обоими. Более того, в одной программе вы сможете откатить операции, сделанные в другой, сохраняя слои и эффекты файла. Кроме этого, Photoshop включил в себя несколько креативных функций, рекомендованных пользователями. Теперь вы можете работать с новым инструментом выделения, более удобным в использовании и более точным в определении границ выделяемой области. Новая Art History Brush позволяет раскрашивать изображение мазками с цветом из выбранного источника из палитры History или Snapshot. Появились новые возможности у функции contact sheet, благодаря которым вы можете экспортировать одну картинку в разных размерах в виде набора. Вы также можете разместить на листе несколько картинок или организовать их в виде веб-галереи. Вместе все эти нововведения делают функциональность Adobe Photoshop 5.5 еще более совершенной. В этом документе рассмотрены новые мощные инструменты для работы с Веб-графикой, а также новые креативные возможности.

Although it has actually been around since the early days of filmmaking, science fiction cinema is a contemporary and futuristic genre. It deals with events that usually take place at a far-off time and often faroff place; thus it appeals to the human desire to understand and perhaps predict the future. It also helps to explain science and technology and where they could be leading us. Science fiction cinema tackles prickly problems, often in a context that make them more real than reality— problems such as environmental degradation; overpopulation and pressure on space and goods; friction between the sexes, races, and nations; and the coming and substantially greater difficulties in dealing with rogue computers, robots, clones, and possibly even aliens (if we can believe what we see in the movies). Although science fiction cinema is often termed escapism, it is also an attempt to come to terms with a rapidly changing world. Consider the words of the great science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke: “We all want to escape occasionally. But science fiction is often very far from escapism, in fact you might say that science fiction is escape into reality. . . . It’s a fiction which does concern itself with real issues: the origin of man; our future. In fact I can’t think of any form of literature which is more concerned with real issues, reality.” This Historical Dictionary of Science Fiction Cinema is an excellent guide to the field. The chronology illustrates how long the movies have been around and charts some of the major advances—and films—over the years. The introduction then provides an overview, reminding us that science fiction cinema is hardly monolithic; rather, it consists of different genres, produced in an increasing range of countries, and using varying techniques. The bulk of the information, as usual, appears in the dictionary, with entries on directors, actors, and films. Other entries deal with topics such as monsters, alien invasions, utopia, and dystopia, as well as production sites (half a dozen countries), technical aspects, and new technologies (computer-generated imagery). The bibliography provides resources for further information. It was written by M. Keith Booker, who is the James E. and Ellen Wadley Roper Professor of English at the University of Arkansas. He is also the director of the university’s Program in Comparative Literature and Cultural Studies. Therefore, Dr. Booker does not simply deal with science fiction in the abstract; he shows how films and their writers, directors, actors, and genres fit into a historical context and relate to us in the present. He has also written dozens of books on literature and popular culture—more broadly and more specifically, half a dozen books on science fiction, with two recent publications dealing with science fiction cinema: Alternative Americas: Science Fiction Film and American Culture and The Science Fiction Handbook. This volume, therefore, presents a wealth of experience and knowledge for a variety of audiences.

Most discussion about Web design seems to focus on the creative process, yet turning concept into reality requires a strong set of deliverablesthe documentation (concept model, site maps, usability reports, and more) that serves as the primary communication tool between designers and customers. Here at last is a guide devoted to just that topic. Combining quick tips for improving deliverables with in-depth discussions of presentation and risk mitigation techniques, author Dan Brown shows you how to make the documentation you're required to provide into the most efficient communications tool possible. He begins with an introductory section about deliverables and their place in the overall process, and then delves into to the different types of deliverables. From usability reports to project plans, content maps, flow charts, wireframes, site maps, and more, each chapter includes a contents checklist, presentation strategy, maintenance strategy, a description of the development process and the deliverable's impact on the project, and more.

Servlets and JavaServer Pages is the first complete guide to building dynamic Java-based Web applications using the new JavaServer Pages 2.0 and Servlets 2.4. Servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSP) provide a robust solution to developing large, complex Web applications, including multiserver projects. In addition to built-in security, portability, and a Web server, they offer developers the freedom to work with any operating system that supports Javabe it Linux, Windows, OSX, or Solaris. This authoritative book begins by explaining how to set up a Servlet and JSP development environment, including a discussion of containers, Java support, and installing and configuring Tomcat. The authors then thoroughly explore servlets and JSP, including significant coverage of custom tag libraries, newly available filters, and popular servlet and JSP design patterns. Readers can then test-drive the knowledge gained by constructing a book-support Web site.

This material is to help identify unknown files. It is not a positive identification, but a good guess based on years of experience and common sense. Best programs can identify about 200+ different file formats - with a few false "identifications" now and then. With Filex databases you can make just a little bit more unreliable identification for thousands of different file formats.

We are on the verge of a revolution. The web is becoming the main developing platform and the primary source for information and software.
