I host them all in a 350 MB space on modhost.com.

About 2 years back when I was creating Ananya Exports website, my client Ramana's son came across this host and took up the webspace for the site. I was quite impressed with the Control Panel and the features and after hosting the site, convinced on the speed.

Last year, when my erstwhile host reminded me to renew, I declined and migrated to modhost. And I've lived virtually happily ever after. . Their service is also quite good and without an attitude , unlike my other host 1and1.com. (I've already posted about the latter's lack of technical strength).

Defenitely recommended..

This is a Blog I came across from the b2evo forum.

Its by a girl in 11th grade and she's building a robot, right on!

Atta girl !

I was actually thinking how to put thumbnails in posts which would show the bigger images inside the post itself w/out the need to open a separate window. While mulling, I was surfing the b2evo Forum and chanced upon Scott's Pure CSS Photo-Caption Zoom. This was a God-send or should I say Scott send?

A neat piece of code that changed the way I'm gonna look at image manipulation not just in my blogs but in all the site. Well, an using just one image for both the thumb and original. Cool, I say.

Great Incentives

To get an idea what I'm talking about, just click the image.

Brilliant, eh ? Gives text wrapping a whole new dimension. Not just that, I can now place just thumbnails of images in my site pages without occupying space. Should work wonders for the Alpine T-shirt gallery I'm planning to upload soon. I could probably fit in a fair amount of images along with product descritpions withot making my page look like invaded Iraq.

The Woods are Lovely..

What makes Photo Zoom a favourite is the ease of customisation and complete control over the image with just a bit of tweaking the CSS. Though the width attributes are specified in the CSS, one can use class names, almost like variable definitions, choosing options in the HTML code. .

Broadband Blues

You choose widths (100px-600px, every 50px) for both the thumbnail AND larger image. You also choose float (left/right) to wrap text the way you like it. I also found out that I could link from the image to an external URL rather than the image by changing the a href tag. This cartoon opens up Scott Kimler Caption no.2 (Production Code)page which provides the CSS and the html code.

I started heading for my earlier posts with a vengance, but then remembered the old jungle saying - WHAT IS DONE IS DONE, DONT UNDONE, SO WELL DONE. But, lemme tell ya, PZ is gonna be apart of my life from now on.

Thanks, Scott...

The goal of the Khronos Projector is to go beyond these forms of exclusive temporal control, by giving the user an entirely new dimension to play with: by touching the projection screen, the user is able to send parts of the image forward or backwards in time. By actually touching a deformable projection screen, shaking it or curling it, separate "islands of time" as well as "temporal waves" are created within the visible frame. This is done by interactively reshaping a two-dimensional spatio-temporal surface that "cuts" the spatio-temporal volume of data generated by a movie.
