Tutorials

Ever find yourself wondering just how someone managed to create an image using different effects?

Here are three simple tutorials we hope will encourage you to try something new.

The Hot Seat

A lifelong interest in landscape photography has led Eyal Oren to make a study of his adopted hometown of Marblehead, MA. As you can see, his dedication is paying off!

Africa!

Dgrinners Harryb, Pathfinder, and others joined Andy Williams and Marc Muench on Safari in East Africa recently. Here are some awesome threads to check out!

How to change color in the background.
This is my "About me" page. I don't care for the color of the background, but I can't decipher the right code to change the color. Help please?

Thank you and thank you. I knew they were going to run an article on me but I didn't know it would be front page in the Sunday paper. I was ecstatic and overjoyed. How did you know? Facebook?

Ok, I got the background changed around like I want and I was hoping to add a little border/drop shadow around the image and text. It appears that the code is already set up for it and I played with some of the values but I couldn't get anything to change.

go with just "box-shadow....change this:

Code:
.gallery_19400349 .myPhoto img 
{-webkit-box-shadow: 0px 3px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, .5);
-moz-box-shadow: 0px 3px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, .5);
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow
(Color='000000', direction='135', strength='3');_filter: none;}

to this:


Code:
.gallery_19400349 .myPhoto img 
{box-shadow: 0px 3px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, .5);
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow
(Color='000000', direction='135', strength='3');_filter: none;}


then for the border, you have that specified in the html tag...you can change it there....or add it to the CSS


Code:
<div class="myPhoto">
  
<img style="border:6px double #545565;" src="/photos/1517537240_Hk58svZ-M.jpg" height="450" width="299">
</div>
