iPhone images display - image

I want to know if there is any way to append something like white border around iPad image thumbnails without too much performance issues?
Something like in XHTML\CSS where you get Polaroid like appearance.I think you may have got faint idea.
Any guidance is highly appreciated.

Fastest way would be to draw a frame around your images if they're all of the same size (your thumbnails).

Is there a way to manually scroll a large image in PowerPoint?

Preview of what I'm looking for
Hello, I'm looking for a way to manually scroll a large image in PowerPoint. In the image there's an example of what I'm looking for. I want to have a preview of the image that I can scroll through and the actual image that moves accordingly to the scrollbar.
Thanks!
I assume you want this in SlideShowView? For sure this can be achieved only by scripting. Essentially you would have to program buttons for up and down movements and use vba do apply this to the image. The preview is a bit more complicated since you would have to do some math too to achieve the conversion in the size differences. All in all a job for a programmer. Are you looking for programming support here?

transparencize a background image on Photoshop

I would like to use this background image on different pages of my website.
The idea is to have a different color, instead of being grey. I am trying to change the color on Photoshop, and found this topic: https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/4056/replace-black-background-with-a-transparent-background but the result is not the one I was expecting.
Anyone knows how to do this ?
yes, you can change it with Photoshop.
Follow these easy steps:
1. Go to main navigation - Images -> Adjustments -> Hue/Saturation...
You must select "Colorize", then you can play with the Hue to find your color and with the saturation to saturate it.
Enjoy! :)
I think this should be in Graphic Design rather than on Stack Overflow, unless you're looking for someway to do it with Photoshop scripting.
If you're looking for simply changing the shade from gray to say orange or green. I would select the layer then go to Image>Adjustments and play around with Hue/Saturation. Play around with that. There may be another way to do it but that's what I would do.

Drawing large images for ipad

I am developing an application for viewing images.
I used the example of PhotoScroller Apple to implement this application.
In my application I want to be able to draw on the image.
I had the idea to put a UIView on top with transparent background and draw the lines via touch events. This solution has become very slow because the generated images are very large, around 3700x2000 pixels.
I also tried a solution with the example of Apple GLPaint that uses OpenGL, but it has a size limitation of 2048x2048 pixels.
Anyone have any idea or example of how I implement this?
I think you should try and tile your image.
One option is using CATiledLayer. Have a look at this short tutorial.
Or you could try and use CGContextDrawTiledImage to get your stuff done. Possibly this post from S.O. could help you getting started.

Rotating a set of images

I am trying to setup a "rotating image" for part of a site I am working on. I have taken many photos of a single item (30+), and I want to display them like it is a rotating 3D image (with a possible draggable speed).
One approach I have taken is setting it as a CSS background, and looping through the images every 0.1s. It works alright, but it flickers like crazy until the image has done a full rotation (I am assuming this is because the image is not yet cached)
Has anyone implemented something similar or have a suggestion?
Much appreciated.

How does facebook handle resizing of images

Hello I am building a social network similar to facebook and I really need some help on how to handle the images in my website. I would like to know how sites like facebook manage the resizing of their images. An example would be looking at someones photo album. The length and width are not just simply changed. They are done in a more professional way to make the image still look clear and not stretched. Do they use a special tool for this. Another example would be profile pics when they are loaded to your message wall. Your friends profile pics are centered and cropped accordingly and then re sized. How do they go about doing this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
They resize proportionally with an imaging library like GD, Imagick or others.
The presentation in the gray area is just that, presentation so HTML and CSS.
They stretch the images proportionally so that they don't look wrong; if you make the image 37.5% wider... you also make it 37.5% taller.
If we knew what language you are familiar with, we could probably suggest something to help with this.
