Microsoft GDI+ is a part of Windows XP/Server 2003 operating system that provides 2D vector-based graphics, imaging and typography. GDI+ is an improved version of the old GDI (Graphics Device Interface), which is part of previous Windows versions. The GDI+ programming model has been revised to make graphics programming easier and more flexible.

Three weeks ago I posted a rendering of the Stadium that was included in an email sent to me. Today at the Stadium it was calendar day, and the high-res version was included in the calendar.

Thanks to Mark Sherman for the great contribution.
With the iPhone 2.0 beta firmware leaked, more is being learned about its overall performance. One interesting detail found recently pertains specifically to the new version of Mobile Safari included with the download. Apple has dramatically boosted it's performance with executing JavaScript. According to a test run using Celtic Kane’s benchmarks, the iPhone's previous 1.x firmware's version of Safari clocked in at around 30 times slower than 1.83 GHz MacBook Pro, with iPhone-generated test times in excess of 9000 ms on average. However, the Safari included with v2.0 beta clocks in at just over 6000 ms on the same test, nearly 3000 ms faster than before. One possible reason is that it uses an updated version of WebKit, build 525.15. This blog will tell you how to Unlock Jailbreak Activat

Who knew VA was an open primary state? (Probably everybody but me.) For some reason, I've always assumed that I had to be registered as a member of one of the major parties to vote in that party's primary in Virginia. Au contraire. So as far as I can tell, this means that registering for a particular party in VA constitutes giving up freedom to vote in the primary of my choice (i.e., whichever contest has me more concerned about the outcome), with no advantage to balance that loss. Therefore, I intend to change my registration to "independent" right away. Thankfully, this doesn't make a difference for next Tuesday's VA primary, because the race that I would choose to vote in is the one for the party with which I'm registered. But next time, I'll be free to vote however I choose.I a

3D architectural rendering, as the name itself suggests, is a three-dimensional view of an object. In this context we mean a building or a house you want constructed. A 3D view is definitely more expressive and exciting than a 2D view because 3D architectural rendering gives you the opportunity to play with your imagination to get a more realistic, imaginative, and comprehensive impression of what you require in your building.3D architectural rendering is possible by using a rendering module to view your project from various aspects or angles, and then make modifications accordingly. 3D rendering is generated by the computer in the form of virtual images, which are created with the help of original designs. Virtual images give you the same experience or the feel of the place as if you were
When Mozilla released Firefox 2.0.0.10 last Monday, the release notes made it out to be a relatively minor update correcting, as usual, a small number of security issues. As it turned out, however, the release contained a nasty surprise for developers whose sites relied on Canvas.drawImage, a JavaScript feature of recent browsers that lets developers display images with effects like rotation and drop shadows.
Firefox 2.0.0.10 completely broke this feature, causing images to disappear from sites that relied upon it. JavaScript effects libraries like instant.js suddenly stopped working, and developers had no way to fix the problem, because, as far as Firefox was concerned, everything was working perfectly.

However, the product will not ship until the second quarter of 2008, according to Kai Staats, CEO of Terra Soft Solutions.
Following Audi's self imposed schedule of having only one RS model on the market at a time, deliveries of the brand new 573hp twin-turbo V10 RS 6 Avant are getting underway for 2008 as the B7 RS 4 ends its production. With RS cars typically having a two year life cycle, the next RS model is expected to debut in 2010 as MY 2011. The most likely candidate to take over from the RS 6 is the RS 5 Coupe since - by that time - it will be in the second half of it's life cycle, although too early for the all-new B8 A4.With regards to the horsepower wars amongst the German auto makers, Audi had positioned previous RS and S models just above and below the competition, the BMW M3 (420hp) and Mercedes CLK 63 AMG (480hp). And much of the chatter lately in the media seem to be supporting that - as the figures put the RS 5 between 450 and 500hp.Earlier this year Car Magazine reported the RS 5 will receive the 4.2 liter V8 currently in the RS 4 with the addition of two small turbochargers for an addi

Vida Condominium (website) has just released a rendering of the proposed project which will include 238 flats and loft homes. Vida is anticipating holding design preview events in early 2008 where buyers will have their first opportunity to view initial floor plans, interior finishes as well as architectural and landscaping design inspirations. The developer is currently in the permitting stage and is expecting to begin construction in 2008.

Art of Illusion is a free, open source 3D modelling and rendering studio. It is written entirely in Java, and should be usable on any Java Virtual Machine which is compatible with J2SE 1.4 or later.The current version is 2.5.1, released Oct. 21, 2007. This version is both stable and powerful enough to be used for serious, high end animation work. Many of its capabilities rival those found in commercial programs. Some of the highlights include subdivision surface based modelling tools, skeleton based animation, and a graphical language for designing procedural textures and materials.Art of Illusion requires Java 1.4 or later and (optional) need Java Media Framework. (This step is not required, and most of Art of Illusion will work normally without JMF. You will not be able to save animations in Quicktime format, however, if it is not installed.)DownloadFile Size : 6.4 MBSoftware Developer Homepage

There are two rendering models used by Java Printing API.
Printable
Printable model is the simplest. Using this model, you can implement only one Printable class. At the moment of printing, its print( ) method is called for each page. This model has the following characteristics:
Every page have the same PageFormat, thus it is not possible to mix landscape and portrait orientations.
If a print dialog is exhibited, it is not possible to know before how many pages the document will have.
Pages will be requested always in order, from index 0 to N – 1.
Printable implementation tells the printing system when the document ends, by means of Printable.NO_SUCH_PAGE constant.
Pageable
Pageable model works like a set of pages to be printed. Each page can have a different page painter. There is already a predefined implementation of this model: Book class.
This model has the following characteristics:
Different pages can use different PageFormat objects; hence it is possible to mix in the sam
By default, the new Opera Mini uses a thumbnail representation of the entire web page you are viewing for initial navigation. On small screens, such as my RAZR, this view is pretty useless because it is so small that you are unable to make out any of the contents of the page. This means you don't know what to zoom in to view. You can enable the small screen rendering which is the same as earlier versions of Opera Mini while keeping the rest of the new features by following these steps:1. Open Opera Mini 4.2. Select Menu.3. Select Tools and then Settings.4. Check the Fit to width checkbox.5. Click Save.
