I’m looking for someone who uses non-english version of some image editing software or something that has color selection tool. What I want to know is whether color spaces like RGB, HSB, etc. are translated to your language or not? And the same about labels near seperate color values (R, G, B, H, S, B)

Thanks!

I just realized that when you make a slider for percentage value it has to accept 101 values and not 100. In other words precise slider should be 101, 202 and so on pixels wide/high. I know this is very simple but I never thought about it

For those who don’t believe here are some screenshots of the same test page rendered in IE7, Opera 9 and Firefox 1.5

IE7 

Opera 9

 
Firefox 1.5

I have an idea why this is happening but so far no idea what is wrong with how it’s done. And both Opera and IE seem to work as I expected but Firefox thinks different. Oh well…

Just trying to post from Windows Live Writer and see if it works ok with WordPress. If you can read this then it works just fine. And if you can see a picture below then it can insert it and is totally recommended

We’ve been members of Microsoft Empower ISV program for couple of years and now when our membership is over we needed to buy a copy of Visual C# 2003 Standard Edition. It wasn’t a surprise that you can’t buy 2003 editions of VS .NET these days but fortunately you can downgrade 2005 editions. So we bought VS 2005 Standard Edition and called Microsoft Lithuania to get a disk kit for 2003.

First of all the call was answered by some latvian or estonian guy (I couldn’t distinguish the accent for sure) and he offered to speak in Russian or English. Kind of strange but not a problem. After I have explained the issue he said that we do have a right for downgrade but Microsoft can’t help us get the disk kit and he could only suggest that we “get it somewhere”. I wanted to ask if it’s okay to download it from bittorrent or edonkey network but you know you most likely can’t get such a “low-end” version over there. It’s always “Enterprise architect” cause you know if you steal anyway why steal sh*t?

I’m sort of lost here. Where do we get that disk kit?

Don’t forget that you can subscribe to our RSS feed and never miss another post. The url for the feed is http://blog.solmetra.com/feed/

I personally read all my subscriptions through online feed reader called Bloglines. Before moving to bloglines I used a very good and free Windows feed reader RssBandit. In case you are on a single PC most of the time I highly recommend that you give RssBandit a try. In my case I read blogs from at least 2 computers every day so web based solution seemed like a better option.

Developers don’t RTFM. They also don’t read long blog posts unless they include a picture of a hot swimsuit babe every paragraph or two. So I’m not gonna waste your time with heartful introductions.

Let me just say that we launched this blog, so that you — the developers — our main group of focus — can get an inscope of what Solmetra team is currently about, what they’re breathing or what they had for breakfast this morning. All this without boring corporate mumbo-jumbo we all hate.

Like they say: from developers to developers. Or something. Enjoy…

BTW, I had three bannanas
