how to recreate the ipod style ads similar to these on the ipop website? [URL] there are tutorials out there but all of them seems to use photoshop and i don't know how to use nor have the patience to learn how to use photoshop since i am already comfortable with PDN....
You know those iPod commercials from Apple where you have the character in Black or white against a color background? They're usually dancing and the only distinguishing feature you can make on the character is the outline of the iPod.
way to make these without tracing with the selection tool?
I'm working on a Mod for civilization 5, we're resurrecting a good mod of which the Modder stopped several months ago. The artist of the mod made some images for some policies, and I need to make the images in his style, I know how he made the background but which effect did he applied the first layer?
I work with photos all day long (my feeble attempt to feel better), but when it comes to graphic design elements I'm really at a loss at reverse engineering. I'm not sure if this will work for me, but I'm thinking of creating some navigation buttons that have the look and feel of the iPod buttons.
I've attached a screen capture from the Apple site for your evaluation. I'm assuming a circle filled with white and a slight gradation going across it from white to a very pale blue. The arrow has some sort of emboss setting applied to it. I'm lost on the very thin outer ring. Is this accomplished through an alph channel selection or just a circle within a circle?
how to achieve an effect like this...ive searched google everywhere and there a plenty of tutorials on ipod commercial effects but none show how to make anything like this.
I like to create some tire tracks, like the ones Apple had for its iPod advertising month ago… --> white background, tire tracks behind the iPod... (sorry, I didn't find the image)
Basically, I need to align tire tracks to a path. I’d like to have 3 pairs of tracks, 2 are wiggly like a drunken driver would cause, and 1 pair is straight, also on a white background.
I've created a model of an iPod Nano fourth gen (wich is no where near perfect). This model has a lock switch as a seperate object. What I'd like to do is make a slider helper object and when I move it, the lock switch gradually goes from locked to unlocked. I don't know how I'd have to make this except for the fact that I'd probably have to use a script controller for the position of the switch and have the script work in the parent's (the iPod body) local coordinate system. But I don't have enough knowledge of MAXscript for that and maybe there's a diffrent approach.
I've been working on a project (original is HD footage) and got a successful render to SD DVD. In trying to render a copy for my ipod i get an added audio problem no matter what ipod setting VSP x3 offers me. It's a background distortion, similar to that of clip that goes in very slow motion and the audio is echoing with reverb. The background noise appears to be in continual " waves".
However, the clip does look excellent otherwise in picture, vocals, musically etc.
I have uploaded an edge animate cc published html with sound. The html file opens perfectly on my mac pro safari browser perfectly with audio. But when I open the same file on my iphone5 the file opens but no the audio does not play.

I am trying to make a collage style column that has 5 different pictures on top of each other and kind of flattened. Â My idea was to have each picture be about 4 inches width and 1.5 inches in height, and then stack them right after another making the one picture. Â How would I accomplish this? Â Everytime I try adding them as a layer it makes the previous layer smaller, and I don't know how to move them, etc.
I want to do anime/manga style drawings on the computer to make the colors smoother so i downloaded paint.net because its free and photoshop was too hard and not free. I only accomplished an anime eye. Are there any tutorials or people out there who do anime/ manga on paint. net?
When shooting Canon 5DII in JPG, Adobe Elements and Lightroom both import the complete images with all variations selected under the cameras Picture Style settings.When shooting in RAW, Adobe ignores these variables and imports ONLY the RAW image directly from the image sensor, ignoring all settings selected under Picture Styles. This is true in both sRGB and AdobeRGB.There is nothing about this in the Canon 5DII manual.This makes Picture Styles useless when shooting in RAW !?
How to export an appearance like "metallic paint" in an xml style and then import it in another way. My real target is to have my RAL colours imported as paint.
If i import my styxml file with the style editor it imports me all the RAL like generic. Instead for example, "metallic paint" appearance has a lot of properties that regards paint.
I want to make a new file (by script) to import, that can add me all the RAL colours as painted ral. I don't find any import/export button.
(Anyway, why RAL colours are not inside the default libraries? Copyright issue?)

I am looking for a way to change the text style used by a table style with Visual LISP.  So far I have been able to get the IAcadTableStyle object from the acad_tablestyle dictionary, but there is no property for text style.  Is this even possible?  Code and results are below.
I read that it's not possible to import a style (styxml file) into the style editor through the API, there is no dedicated command.
However I'm wondering if there's a a way to have the internal name corresponding to the button as we can do for the ribbon buttons (there's a sample code which does this).
So is it possible ot get the internal name of a button inside a dialog box (style editor here) or is it really hopeless to think I can import a style with a macro ?
I am trying to change the default label styles for AddSegmentLabel under general styles using .NET...
Dim X As Autodesk.Civil.Settings.SettingsCmdAddSegmentLabel = CD.Settings.GetSettings(Of Autodesk.Civil.Settings.SettingsCmdAddSegmentLabel)()
X.Styles.LineLabel.Value = strChildStyleName ... says name does not exist
or
X.Styles.LineLabelStyleId.Value = oidChildStyle ... "The type of objectId is wrong"
If I manually change it to a child style and then check the values, they are the same as what I'm trying to set them to. If you use a "parent" style then these both work. Am I doing something wrong or this another limitation? Â Civil 3D 2013 - Windows 7 Pro 64 - Dell T3500 - Xeon 2.67 - 24gb - Quadro 600
I am working with a template, that doesn't allow me to change the dimension style. In the project the Use Style Library is set to Read/Write. I have created my dimension style, at this point just a copy of the ANSI standard with a text size difference. I went to my template and set that syle as my default, and saved it. Now the fact that it doesn't automatically update the drawing I had alreadycreated is a nuisance, however if I creat a new drawing, the style has reverted to a different standard, that is not even the ANSI default. If I right click a dimension and change the dimstyle to what I saved it does update, but if I try to change the style again it defaults to a random dimstyle, AND changes the style even if I hit cancel. So... the question is how to make the changes stick?
I have recorded an action to create a transparent image on a batch of photos. Next I ran the image processor using the File/Scripts/image processor. When running the action the error message occurs no matter how many ways I attempt to modify the action. Error: The object "Style "Shape Style"" is not currently available.
I then look in the action window to check and under the steps Make Fill Layer: Style: Shape, Style 1 appears but I can't delete it. This one error message makes it impossible for me to image process a batch of photos with a watermark on them.
