Difference between Web and Graphic Design

March 28, 2009 at 8:25 pm (Designs, Graphic Design)

Designing for web and print are two different experiences. Just because a designer is good at one doesn’t mean they’ll be good at the other. It’s necessary to understand that web and print share many similarities, but they also have many differences.
Below is a list of things to consider when going from print design to web design:

Resolution
Resolution is the quality of an image. It’s measured in terms of pixels. If you see an image listed as “72 ppi”, for visit to:-www.automatic-content.comthat means the image has 72 pixels per inch (ppi). Because web graphics are viewed on screen, they should be no larger than 72 ppi. A large ppi image will load slower, and won’t necessarily look any better.

Image Files – Gifs and Jpegs
JPEG stands for Joint Photographers Experts Group. It’s a great format that retains color and detail found in photographs and graphics with lots of color blends. JPEGs can display millions of colors so it’s ideal for print work.

GIF stands for Graphics Interchange Format. Most web pages use this format because it’s supported by all web browsers, can display up to 256 colors, and can include transparent backgrounds. GIFS are appropriate for image files with little color variation, and for images that will only be viewed on screen.

Photographs saved as GIFs may appear grainy. Single color images saved as JPEGs may appear fuzzy. When you save a graphic image, consider what type of file it is. Remember, GIFs work best with images having few colors or color variations. JPEGs work best with photographs or images to be printed.

Fonts

There is a major difference between choosing fonts for web as opposed to print. With print design, your completed piece will display the font specified during the design process. You don’t have to worry that a reader will open your brochure and not have the proper fonts displayed. However, more visit to;-www.google-friendly-page.com web designers never know for sure if their fonts will display properly.
Unlike with print, web fonts differ based on the web browser being used. Your audience can only view the same font you’re viewing if it’s installed on their computer. If you design a beautiful website using Chaucer Bold, and none of your viewers have that font, their browsers will have to find a substitute.

This is why it’s good to be conservative when it comes to web fonts. Your beautifully designed page can look horrible when displayed on someone else’s browser. Don’t let your hard work go to waste. Stick to fonts such as Helvetica, Arial, Times New Roman, or Verdana. All web browsers are capable of displaying these fonts. However, if you do want to use a creative font, you can include it in a graphic file. But this will cause your page to load slower.

If you’re a print designer faced with designing a web page, take time to study the subject. You will be able to create a pleasing and effective site if you recognize the differences between print and web design.

The Measure Of Life

March 27, 2009 at 5:45 pm (Uncategorized)

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong,
enough sorrow to keep you human, and enough hope to make you happy.

The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past;
You can’t go forward in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

Don’t count the years – count the memories….
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away!pravs-j-the-measure-of-life

World Is Waiting For You

March 26, 2009 at 5:46 pm (Get Relex, thought)

Do not be afraid to shine. The world needs what you have to give.
Open up the areas of your being; Expose them to yourself – to others.
You are valuable. You are unique.
You have much to give. Do not be afraid to give it.

As we risk ourselves, we grow. Each new experience is a risk.
We can try, and maybe fail; And, as a result, grow or hold back and stagnate.

You have the potential to be anything you want. You are free to chooose.
You are limited only by your fears. Let your dreams take over.
Fly with the eagles. Soar into life.

The world is waiting for you.

Mere Dil Mein Abb Musalsil Dard Ko Rehne De

March 25, 2009 at 10:01 pm (poetry)

Mere Dil Mein Abb Musalsil Dard Ko Rehne De
Na Rok Ajj Ankhon Se Ashk Behne De

Sajayi Hai Hansi Laboon Pe Pucho Kion
Raz Ye Aaj Duniya Pe Khul Jane De

Kab Se Khamosh Hain Zakham Dil Ke Band Darichon Mein
Ghaoo Esa Lagaoo Ke Ajj Lahoo Ko Rass Jane De

Baat Esi Kijiye Jo Seene Ke Aar Paar Ho
Maar Dalo Aaj Muje Ya Muje Mar Jane De

Dukh Ki Jarein Dhunsh Chuki Hain Dil Ke Daldal Mein
Kaat Dalo Iss Shajar Ko  Ya Bhar Jane De

Give Your Best To Relationships

March 24, 2009 at 6:20 pm (Get Relex, future, past, present, thought)

A boy and a girl were playing together. The boy had a collection of marbles. The girl had some sweets with her.

The boy told the girl that he will give her all his marbles in exchange for her sweets. The girl agreed. The boy kept the biggest and the most beautiful marble aside and gave the rest to the girl. The girl gave him all her sweets as she had promised.

That night, the girl slept peacefully. But the boy couldn’t sleep as he kept wondering if the girl had hidden some sweets from him the way he had hidden his best marble.

Moral of the story:
If you don’t give your hundred percent in a relationship, you’ll always keep doubting if the other person has given his/her hundred percent..

This is applicable for any relationship like love, employer-employee relationship etc., Give your hundred percent to everything you do and sleep peacefully.

Dost Ban Ban Ke Mile Mujhko Mitaane Wale

March 24, 2009 at 7:57 am (past, poetry)

Dost Ban Ban Ke Mile Mujhko Mitaane Wale
Maine Dekhe Hain Kaee Rang Badalne Wale

Tum Ne Chup Reh Kar Sitam Aur Bhi Dhaya Mujhe Par
Tum Se Acche Hain Mere Haal Pe Hansne Wale

Main To Ikhlaak Ke Hathon Hi Bika Karta Hoon
Aur Honge Tere Bazar Mein Bikne Wale

Akhri Baar Salaamein Dil-E-Muztar Le Lo
Fhir Na Lautenge Shab-E-Hijr Ke Rone’ Wale

Dost Ban Ban Le Mile Mukjo Mitaane Wale

Sorry quotes

March 22, 2009 at 10:58 pm (hate, love, movies, present, silence)

———————————————————————————————–

I’m not supposed to love you, I’m not supposed to care, I’m not supposed to live my life wishing you were there. I’m not supposed to wonder where you are or what you do…I’m sorry I can’t help myself, I’m in love with you.

———————————————————————————————–

“I don’t know if I continue, even today, always liking myself. But what I learned to do many years ago was to forgive myself. It is very important for every human being to forgive herself or himself because if you live, you will make mistakes- it is inevitable. But once you do and you see the mistake, then you forgive yourself and say, ‘well, if I’d known better I’d have done better,’ that’s all. So you say to people who you think you may have injured, ‘I’m sorry,’ and then you say to yourself, ‘I’m sorry.’ If we all hold on to the mistake, we can’t see our own glory in the mirror because we have the mistake between our faces and the mirror; we can’t see what we’re capable of being. You can ask forgiveness of others, but in the end the real forgiveness is in one’s own self. I think that young men and women are so caught by the way they see themselves. Now mind you. When a larger society sees them as unattractive, as threats, as too black or too white or too poor or too fat or too thin or too sexual or too asexual, that’s rough. But you can overcome that. The real difficulty is to overcome how you think about yourself. If we don’t have that we never grow, we never learn, and sure as hell we should never teach.”

Main Vo Naghma Jo Roz Naye Saazon Me Bajta

March 21, 2009 at 8:59 pm (poetry)

Main Vo Naghma Jo Roz Naye Saazon Me Bajta
Shayar Ka Tasavvur To Uski Tanhaiyun Se Sajta

Dekhkar Aaiyna Tasalli Kisko Dete Ho
Imaan Zinda Hai To Dil’e’aaiyna Dil Se Chamakta

Roshni Andheron Ki Andhere Roshni Ke Talabgaar
Kudrat Ki Aashiqui Me Din’o’raaat Ishq Se Sajta

Khabardaar Mujhko Karke Phir Mujhse Bekhabar Ho Gaya
Kya Kahen Ye Shaqs Unka Karam Hi Ise Samajhta

Taazgi Gham Se Rahti Gul’e’zindgaani Ki
Khushiyun Ka Qaarobaar Aalam’e’dard Se Mahakta

Beshak Kisi Ka Nahi Main Mera Koi Aur Nahi
Dunia Use Bhi Nahi Kahte Insaan Jise Kahta

tum bhi Khafaa ho log bhi beraham hain dosto

March 16, 2009 at 6:38 pm (poetry)

tum bhi Khafaa ho log bhi beraham hain dosto
ab ho chalaa yaqein ke bure ham hain dosto

kis ko hamaare haal se nisbat hai kyaa karein
aankhein to dushmanoun ki bhi pur_nam hain dosto

apane sivaa hamaare na hone kaa Gam kise
apani talaash mein to ham hi ham hain dosto

kuchh aaj shaam hii se hai dil bhii bujhaa bujhaa
kuchh shahar ke chiraaG bhi maddham hain dosto

is shahar-e-aarazuu se bhi baahar nikal chalo
ab dil ki raunaqein bhi koi dam hain dosto

sab kuchh sahi ‘Faraz’ par itanaa zaruur hai
duniyaa main aise log bahut kam hain dosto
