.cur is an image extension for mouse Cursors
I have purchased a custom domain via Blogger.Unlike Wordpress,blogger does not have any directory of webfiles or something where things can be uploaded
I need to change the default cursor of my mouse in my website.Unfortunately,Google's Picassa or Imageshack/phobucket do not support .cur files.
I found some other image sites while googling,but all are old image hosting services which no longer exist.
I tried dropbox,google code,but they provide a link to download the .cur image and not actually give a url which i can link in my css.
Is there any way to host .cur Images.Please Help.Thanks.
Do you really need to keep this file in the cur format? Isn't converting it to, say, PNG an option?
I'm not even sure every browser/OS out there supports cur (though I've seen examples online with this format, so I might be mistaken). Converting to a more standard format might ensure better portability, besides saving you the hassle of looking for a host with such specific requirements.

I would like to download all images in full quality from this blog: http://w899c8kcu.homepage.t-online.de/Blog.
I have access to server, but I can not find the directory where the images lie. When I use Firebug on the first picture, it shows me http://w899c8kcu.homepage.t-online.de/Blog;session=f0577255d9df9185d3abe04af0ce922d&focus=CMTOI_de_dtag_hosting_hpcreator_widget_PictureGallery_15716702&path=image.action&frame=CMTOI_de_dtag_hosting_hpcreator_widget_PictureGallery_15716702?id=34877331&width=1000&height=2000&crop=false.
How can I find the file paths like /dirname/image.jpg?
According to its HTML output the page obviously uses the CM4all content management system (CMS).
I don't know how precisely this CMS is working, though generally CMSs normally either save the files under cryptic names within a folder specified in the CMS's configuration or not in the file system at all but within a database.
Also, CMS may only save compressed or resized versions of the original files.
So, if you don't want to or are not able to dig into the server-side script code to find out if and where the images are saved, you should contact the company behind CM4all about this.
I'm wondering how it possible to extract images from .swf viewer?
Note that .swf file have not images itself.
For example I'm trying extract images from AVON catalogue from this link - http://avon.com.ua/PRSuite/eBrochure.page?index=1&cmpgnYrNr=201404&pageNo=0
Any ideas?
Best way is to put the .swf file in a decompiler for image extraction. Decompilers are smart enough to extract images for you and arrange them.
JPEXS Free Flash Decompiler is a more popular one
http://www.free-decompiler.com/flash/
You can extract other useful content from it as well.
Just download the .swf file from the website
A while back (like around 1999) I wrote a set of tools for Flash animations.
One of the tools is swf_dump which can be used to extract objects (i.e. write the objects in a form of script that sswf can nearly recompile...)
The tool also allows for extracting images that are inline (not downloaded dynamically by the flash animation, if so, anyway, you could as well download those images manually, you'd need the URL, though.)
The command line you can use is:
swf_dump -d my-animation.swf
Then your current folder will be littered with all the images that were found in the flash file. It extracts JPEGs and PNGs. The source can be compressed (SWF or CWF are supported.)
Now, you're on your own to compile that thing... The project is here and is in great need of updating (but Flash is kind of going out too...)

I have a Wordpress site (www.nurseresumetips.com) and I'm using a theme named JVPress.
This theme lets you to upload a custom header graphic. If you open the page in Firefox the header graphic displays, however when I open it in Internet Explorer 8 the image is not found.
The link that Wordpress is generating is: http://www.nurseresumetips.com/wp-content/uploads/20110419033853_nrt.jpg
This link works in Firefox but not in Internet Explorer.
I just want to know if anyone could point me in the right direction.
Thanks
Having looked around, I think you may be tripping over a problem like this, where your JPEG is encoded in a slightly odd format. Looks like CMYK is accepted as a format by some browsers, but not others.
Depending on your software, you might be able to find a way of saving in a more usual colour encoding -- in Photoshop, for example, try the specific "save for web" option.
Given the content of your image, I'd actually suggest saving the file as a PNG, anyway. JPEG is best for photographic images; for textual images like this one, PNG will probably (a) be more efficient, (b) look better -- no encoding artefacts around the nice solid lines you have, and (c) not have this odd problem you're facing.
I am currently writing an application working with specially prepared image data. Another tool prepares the images (basically PNGs with additional data stored in the meta-data section). Now my tool works with these files, but not with all PNGs, so "we" decided to use a different file extension. So far, so good.
Now, because I am a lazy sack I implemented some file type registration to allow double-clicking on the file and opening it in my application (no problem at all).
And here is my Question:
It would be cool if the windows explorer could still show me the thumbnail previews for my files. Since they basically are still PNG files, it should be possible without writing my own shell extension (at least I believe so).
I quickly tried to copy all registry keys and values from HKCR.png to HKCR.mInDat (my file name ext) and it worked. However, I would prefere knowning what I am doing ;-)
Which of the registry settings are responsible for the thumbnail preview control and which can I use to get the preview for my file types?
I tried to google it, but I failed, since it seems I am unable to come up with the right buzz-words to find the info I need. Please, help me.
Thank you!
Yours,

Simple:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.apng]
#="apng"
"Content Type"="image/png"
"PerceivedType"="image"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\apng\shellex\{BB2E617C-0920-11d1-9A0B-00C04FC2D6C1}]
#="{3F30C968-480A-4C6C-862D-EFC0897BB84B}"
I'm trying to see what a certain webpage would look like if I replaced a certain image with another. Rather than upload the image, edit the site, etc, each time I tweak it, I'd like to know if there's a way to change the image in the page to my local version while viewing the remote page.
I use Firebug for debugging web development usually, but I'm open to any other tool that might do this.
(It is absolutely impossible to search for this and find anything but questions about dynamic image swapping on a deployed website, so sorry if this is a duplicate.)
Added: I just tried substituting a file:/// URI pointing to the image (copied and pasted from the address bar after manually opening the image), and alas, it did not work — the image fails to change.
It seems to only work with the http[s] protocols (likely for security reasons). You can store your images on service like Dropbox, share the image or folder, then use the public URLs.
Really, you can use any web accessible images, so a local server would work too.
If your image is in a localhost server(not as file mind you) i think you can still put that localhost url in the firebug inspect element and it'll work.
Tried an absolute file path but it doesn't work apparently. So I guess you just have to make do with a localhost server image. That works for me
Quick and Lowtech Answer: Take a screen shot of the page open it in photoshop and drop the local image on a layer above the webpage image.
Hi if you are serving from a webserver, u probably can't point it to a file on ur local drive. Even if its localhost, u can't point to a local file c:/test.jpg for example. Its because the browser sorts of sandbox ur page so that scripts can't access local files.
One way is to upload the new file (new_file.jpg) to the webserver, give the image link an id
<img id="something1" src="test.jpg"/>
Using jQuery in the firebug watch window do
$("#something1").attr("src","new_file.jpg");
You should see the image change. If you are not using jQuery, you can use document.getElementById("something1") and get the element to modify.
Another way is to use http://makiapp.com/
You can overlay an image from you computer onto any website you look at with this. Very cool tool for lining up a comp with your code.
You can:
Drag your test image into Google Drive
Open it in a browser
Go to the actual image path
Use this path as a substitute in Firebug
It's almost as fast as working from a local drive.
