Android is becoming the major backbone of gadgets(like smartphone, tablets and TV). In last eight months more than 100 gadgets launched in the market in which there are 30+ tablets (refer to Android tablet spreadsheet). If we talk about the design, most of the tablets in the market looks identical & have common operational UI. Recently Sony launched its Tablet S with a unique design and custom UI.

On Air Firmware Upgrade

Almost 70% of android gadget users are worries about upgrading their firmwares including hassle of connecting it with the system. The most unique features of Sony Tablet S which differentiate it from the market is the on air firmware upgrade option!

Hardware

Yes, another factor is hardware of Sony Tablet S! It is powered by a dual-core Tegra 2 processor overclocked at 1GHz with 1GB RAM. Its 9.4″ TFT screen have resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels and device is capable of 720p@30fps HD video recording. Its camera also have features like Touch focus, image stabilization, geo-tagging, face and smile detection!

UI

10 Necessary Tips for a Fast-Loading Website

Nikita Porwal — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 07:29:04 +0000

How would you feel when you visit a website looking for information and it says – Loading – Please wait 10%, 50%…? Annoying? In fact nothing is more annoying for a website visitor than waiting for a 100K graphic to load when it actually has to be 10K. Huge flashy graphics and multimedia might make your website look nicer, but helps no way for a time savvy reader who comes to avail information on your site. In turn your visitor would click off immediately without looking at what you have to offer, although this is not your intention.

It is of course imperative to have a practically fast loading website so that your visitors are not left in a loop of waiting. Also remember that search engine algorithms do take your website loading time into consideration when pushing your ranking. Most likely, your visitors will come to your site for reading interesting and valuable content or to make a purchase, so why not make their visit enjoyable? Learn how to create a fast loading website with these 10 effective tips:

10 Effective Tips for a Fast-Loading Website

About Images and Graphics – We all know minimizing the usage of images can be a good deal for a fast-loading website, but what if it is not possible? Well, when designing templates, logos, buttons, and other necessary elements in Illustrator make sure they are created as vector images. As these images are big in size, turn them from CMYK to RGB and also ensure you decrease it to exact size that is required by your site. Remember resizing needs to be done only in Illustrator or Photoshop for quick loading. Make use of an excellent tool called GifBot that helps you shrinking your graphics right on a webpage quickly.

Make Most Out of CSS – CSS is a revolutionary tool for fast-loading website, actually many developers these days prefers designing the whole website using CSS. Just because it is a simple HTML code, it has an advantage of loading fast. However, working on CSS requires creativity, so make sure you try out different styles in CSS. Because CSS styles are in HTML, you would further save time and have the same unique effects you’re behind.

Example1: You can use CSS3 properties to give border radius instead of background images,

-webkit-border-radius: 5px; -moz-border-radius: 5px; border-radius: 5px;

Avoid “So-Called” Creative Stuffs – How about adding as flash movie or a dancing object to the website to impress visitors? I’m sorry but it a bad idea, your readers would only feel assaulted with these so-called creative stuffs. Using plain Html is best as too many fancy things that impress you might bog down the loading time and will cause visual overload to your visitor. It is best to make minimal usage of such objects or even better to avoid it.

Respect Your Site Content – Placing content wherever possible will leave your reader confused and lost. Your content is valuable and the most important element of the site, so it is ok if you have more to share, but it is bad to stuff them all at one place. Basically, long content pages will take long time to load. Hence, break them into different relative sections so that the size is minimized for each page. Give some room for your reader to breathe and enjoy surfing.

Know Your Backgrounds and Buttons – Using background images will only say your website is “amateur”, because no professional site make use of background images that distract the reader. The main problem is it will take longer time to load than the usual. The same holds true in case the site has end-number of buttons. Best is to optimize your button and background in Photoshop, if the loading time really matters to you. Use appropriate web colors for background and roll over buttons to help saving loading time.

Example: You can use css for gradient properties (Tip: use colorzilla gradient editor for generating css properties online)
background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, rgba(0,0,0,0.65) 0%, rgba(0,0,0,0) 100%); /* FF3.6+ */ background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0%,rgba(0,0,0,0.65)), color-stop(100%,rgba(0,0,0,0))); /* Chrome,Safari4+ */ background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, rgba(0,0,0,0.65) 0%,rgba(0,0,0,0) 100%); /* Chrome10+,Safari5.1+ */ background: -o-linear-gradient(top, rgba(0,0,0,0.65) 0%,rgba(0,0,0,0) 100%); /* Opera 11.10+ */ background: -ms-linear-gradient(top, rgba(0,0,0,0.65) 0%,rgba(0,0,0,0) 100%); /* IE10+ */ background: linear-gradient(top, rgba(0,0,0,0.65) 0%,rgba(0,0,0,0) 100%); /* W3C */ filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient( startColorstr='#a6000000', endColorstr='#00000000',GradientType=0 ); /* IE6-9 */

Turn Your Images Into Tables – These days’ tables can be an excellent alternative to graphics and images. It is a must to learn to make use of tables offered by the web design program as it will reduce the load time of site. You can definitely give an artistic feel just by making use of table with background color and cool text. Remember, the more you dig down HTML to create a website, the faster you will have your website load.

Chuck Down Animated Gifs – We have increasingly saw that a simple looking website gain more popularity than animated one. Why use Animated Gifs when we know that it can slow down the loading time? There might be lot of hype about animated gifs on site, but can give horrifying results when visitors come to you. You want your visitors to come and come again, so do it with simple and fast loading website. By all means attractive design and good content can drive traffic.

Useless and Repeated Pages – Do you need them? If not, then minimize your web pages with required information and make sure you don’t duplicate them. This is very important for saving time on site navigation. Point-to-Point information is always appreciated by people. We all love manageable sites, which helps easy navigation without getting bogged down. So ensure you take away all your useless and repeated pages.

Love HTML – If you looking to save time on loading then take care you design most of your site in HTML. There is always room for creativity and the best creativity is used when designing website with HTLM code. It will not only save time, but it is relatively easy to deal with. Make use of tables, colors, CSS styles, different fonts to create it. Also know that your website should be completely error free.

Keep Your Eye Open – So your site is ready, and the work is over? No, not really, you need to keep an eye open on your website and observe the pages often. Checking often will help you locate bugs (if any) and will improve it overall. Fix the error immediately if you come across any for over all good performance!

10 Exciting New Features Of Photoshop CS5 For Designers

Nikita Porwal — Sun, 11 Apr 2010 18:43:32 +0000

Its great to share with you guys that we are invited for the launch of Adobe creative suite 5. There is lot of buzz around the web for this fantastic upcoming product from Adobe. Adobe Creative Suite 5 (Adobe CS5) is going to launch, which is a collection of graphic design, video editing, and web development applications made by Adobe Systems. Web designers are super excited about this launch as its productive and creative features will greatly speed up designer’s workflow. Designers and photographer are also thrilled with the announcement made by Adobe, that it would give Flash CS5 the features to allow devs to build Flash-based applications and then export them to the App Store’s .ipa standard. This will effectively allow developers to build iPhone apps in nothing but CS5.

Of course Photoshop CS5 will come with several groundbreaking fresh features like new automated patching tools, warping tool, advanced edge detection in masking, improved color picker and eye dropper and lot more. The release date of Adobe Photoshop CS5 is April 12, 2010 and here are some top 15 features of Photoshop CS5 for designers. This is by no means the all-inclusive collection, yet the most profound ones.

1. Content Aware Fill

Content aware fill is fully automated image “Patching” tool and promises to make revolution in photo retouching. Basically it allows you to alter or create reality in photographs as easily as selecting an area and running the feature. Gone will be the days when photojournalists are caught with embarrassing patterns created by improperly using the stamp tool. The below given video explains clearly how it works.

2. Better Edge Detection And Masking

Photoshop CS5 feature offers better edge detection and masking results in less time—even with the trickiest images, like hair. It further let users adjust parameters like feathering and contrast in just one step while previewing the result before applying. Don’t miss out on “Smart Radius” that offers advanced edge detection to create complex selections very quickly.

3. Painting

Have an image you’d like to turn into a painting using natural brushes and strokes? Or how about the urge to create digital paintings from scratch? Painting tool of CS5 offers you to change the size of your brush with the horizontal and vertical movements of your mouse. You are also allowed to change the page size with this amplified tool.

4. Layer And Preferences

This tool helps you save custom layer and closing dialog box option as default. You just need to click on “Make default” button once you are done with creating custom layer style in CS5 and that will be your default option for all new layer you create henceforth. Same trick can be applied for closing dialog box also.

5. Straighten and Multilayer Opacity

When you need to straighten your photo with CS5 all you need is to draw a horizon line, click Straighten button and your image would turn straight with specified line. Further you can also adjust multiple layers simultaneously as easy as selecting layers you desire to adjust and moving opacity slider. Another amazing thing about CS5 is that it now allows you to save 16-bit files as a JPG in a single step without first downsampling.

6. Upgraded Spot Healing Tool

Upgraded spot healing tool works the same way as the content aware fill. It makes much easier to remove unwanted objects and any scratches or damaged regions from photos. For example, you can remove wires from urban photo in seconds. Previously this feature was available in some Photoshop plugins but apparently Adobe developers improved the algorithm a lot.

7. Puppet Wrap Tool

Puppet wrap tool was one of the most wanted features and now it has been added to Photoshop CS5. It allows you to create a skeleton kind of shape by assigning joints on object and wrap image around it. This is being taken from Adobe After Effects program.

8. Dueling Paint

Adobe Photoshop CS5 provides an alternative to either use a special tool to interpret a photograph into a painting or to use a “from scratch” tool and create absolutely new objects. You can convert your photo into a hand drawn painting with much more realistic results. And Wet paint is a new Photoshop CS5 feature that lets you mix up colors with brush in the same way you do it in a real world, ‘wet’ paints can be smudged, smeared and blended. The new brush tools aim to match that found within Corel’s Painter application.

9. PatchMatch

PatchMatch is a Randomized Correspondence Algorithm for Structural Image Editing quickly finding approximate nearest neighbor matches between image patches. Algorithm offers substantial performance improvements over the previous state of the art (20-100x), enabling its use in interactive editing tools. The key insights driving the algorithm are that some good patch matches can be found via random sampling, and that natural coherence in the imagery allows propagating such matches quickly to surrounding areas.

10. Lot More New Features

There are lot more new features waiting on the launch, check out the sneak peak of Photoshop CS5 technology below:
