Linux Hosting / Coldfusion Hosting
September 16, 2009, 08:55:41 AM
Would you consider installing Railio or Blue Dragon to allow ColdFusion hosting on your systems?  Windows or Linux, I don't care..  As a Coldfusion developer with "programmer's block" when it comes to PHP I'd really like to develop in Coldfusion.

Just wondering....

Graphics and Images / Re: Graphics Programs
February 05, 2008, 06:36:38 AM
I am a big fan of Open Source applications.  I like to use GIMP, Inkscape and Blender the most.  I actually bought Flash because it is worth every penny, but Photoshop and Illustrator (cool as they are) are out of reach for most people (without stealing the software).

Gimp: Photo correction, new raster/bitmap images - Free
Inkscape: Precise Vector images - Free
Blender: 3d images and animations, video composting - Free
Flash: Cartoon Vector images, animations and applications - Pricey...

I wish more people would take the time to learn Gimp and Inkscape rather than hit pirate bay and download the Adobe alternatives illegally.  The open source stuff runs on windows, is stable and offers decent quality (if you are working with 1200 dpi photos for print jobs then just buy Photoshop, 100 - 300 dpi for web is fine on Gimp).  I see no reason to pirate adobe software.
