Air Photos Jakarta (Batavia) in Period of Colonialism

Colonialism Period. Nearly 350 years Indonesia life in colonialism period. Gold, Glory, Gospel theory is one of the reasons why colonial country will attack an other country. Dutch is one of the colonial nation which use this theory for separate their power to the world. They come to poor country with good reason for their future promise, but the fact, they only deplete the asset owned by the state which they attack. 
Batavia or Jakarta today, was the central of activity they did colonialism in Indonesia. This the pictures or photo, take from the air in period of colonialism in Indonesia.

Wondershare Photo Gallery


It may take a couple of minutes for all 27 photos to load into the cylinder.
To view a photo, click on it to zoom in. Then click on the photo again to zoom back out again. Hold down the mouse and drag to rotate the cylinder around. We can also use the top right hand corner player buttons to advance through the pictures.

The above super cool 3D photo gallery was made using a $50 US application called "Wondershare Flash Gallery Factory Deluxe".

A full overview of this product can be found at:
http://www.flash-gallery-software.com/flash-gallery.html#10113

The cylindical slideshow maker can be found at this web page:

http://www.ourpix.com/tutorial/3d-flash-photo-gallery.html#10113

It does a slideshow of our photos, and we can add background music as well.

Note that on our PWofICT Blog page we are limited to a 550 pixels wide display of the cylinder. However because it runs as a Flash.SWF file, it is fully scalable, and looks even better as a larger sized cylinder on a single web page.

Eg. Click on the following link to view a larger version of the cylinder gallery:

http://www.passyworld.com/passyHTMLs/WondershareGalleryCyl.html

Everyone should try this Wondershare software to see how easy it is to use.
The first step is to download and install the trial software from the above web page. When we start the application, we click "order later" and this will give us access to use the software for 30 days free of charge.

(However, as shown in the example at the end of this blog post, your photos will have the "Evaluation Copy" message placed on top of them).

There is a full set of instructions on how to use the software, at the following web page. The software is very quick and easy to use.

http://www.ourpix.com/tutorial/3d-flash-photo-gallery.html#10113

Basically it is a simple three step process:
  • Browse to find your photos on your hard drive, and double click on each one to add it to the gallery maker.
  • Choose a template (such as the 27 pics cylinder one)
  • Publish an output SWF or HTML or EXE etc file.

Note that our published .SWF file of 27 photos ended up around 3 MB in size.

When we installed the software, we obtained some sample pictures in a folder at: C:\Program Files\Wondershare\Flash Gallery Factory\res\Samples

In this folder, the photos are all .jpgs that are 800x600 in size.

We therefore took our own selection of photos, and made them all 800x600 .JPG files using Adobe CS3 Photoshop. While we were in Photoshop, we also played around with filters and effects on a number of our pictures. This created some very nice "arty" results.

Wondershare Gallery has several types of different gallery layouts such as spheres, cubes, circles, and many others. This one below is called a "Wall" layout. (Because we did not have a set of 36 photos for the wall, some of our 27 photos are repeated on the wall.

There are two versions of Flash Gallery Factory: Standard and Deluxe.
Here at Passy World we are using the Deluxe version.
To see the differences go to this page:

If you like what you have seen here, then you will definitely want to purchase your own copy of "Wondershare Flash Gallery Factory Deluxe" by clicking the following link:
http://www.flash-gallery-software.com/purchase-flash-gallery.html


Here at Passy World we plan to use the WS Gallery software to create interesting visual displays of items for you throughout our blog posts in 2010.

Enjoy,

Photoshop Extreme Makeovers

Sorry Picture Not Found
Picture Source: http://www.tutorialized.com

The above is a typical "Before" and "After" image of a Photoshop Makeover.

Like it or not, most of the images we see of people and food products in our supermarkets have usually been photoshopped in some way to make them seem supposedly more appealing.

Still, from a technical point of view, it is really amazing the progress that has been made in all forms of digital art in the last few years, especially digital photography.

YouTube Photoshop Makeover Examples

Here are several YouTube videos showing some fairly typical Photoshop Makeovers:

2 minute Makeover


1 minute 30 secs amazing makeover:


1 minute 30 secs "Beauty is Fake" makeover:


2 minutes 30 seconds several makeovers in one video:


3 minutes 30 seconds Photoshop makeover:





YouTube Makeover Tutorials

Here is a very basic 8 minute tutorial to get started on some typical makeover methods:




Photoshop Mama on YouTUbe has some good makeover tutorial videos.


Here is a typical Photoshop Mama Tutorial Video: (10 minutes long)




Here is another 10 minute makeover tutorial from a different presenter:




Step by Step Free Makeover Tutorials


The following website has some great quick to do basic step by step Photoshop makeovers: http://ilike2photoshop.blogspot.com/ such as these:

http://ilike2photoshop.blogspot.com/2009/01/sun-tan-in-photoshop.html


Tutorialized.com (http://www.tutorialized.com) also has some excellent free Photoshop retouching exercises like this one: "Photoshop Professional Make-up and Face Slimming Tutorial" : http://www.tutorialized.com/view/tutorial/Professional-Make-up-and-Face-Slimming/52849

This is the actual tutorial that the before and after photo at the start of this post came from.

Lynda.com also has some great photoshop retouching exercises, but these are not free. Best to join up on the monthly $25 fee and be able to use Photoshop, Flash, Dreamweaver, and virtually anything else your designing heart could desire at: http://www.lynda.com .


Anyway, time for me to go and give my teeth a bit of a makeover, the good old fashioned way, with brush, paste, and elbow grease.

Enjoy,
