The Adjustment Tool Guide gives an in-depth-view of the Adjustment tool in Aperture. The documentary provided by Apple isn't that what most people were looking for. But Kendall Gelner wrote his own Adjustment Tools Guide originally for the Aperture Version 1.0.1.

**UPDATE: I wrote a follow up article describing how to use this scanner with the newest Mac operating system Leopard. Feel free to head over to this article to get the freshest facts about using this scanner with Mac OS X:

[Using the CanoScan LiDE 500F scanner with Mac OS X Leopard](/using-the-canoscan-lide-500f-with-mac-os-x-leopard/)**

So there were two choices for using the scanner on an Intel-Mac: installing the PowerPC-driver and using [VueScan](http://www.hamrick.com/) for scanning. But, man, was that slow! And i couldn't get the 16bit per channel scanning to function, which is an essential function for me. Also they want to have 40$ for this app, which isn't that much but after spending money for the scanner and for Photoshop I didn't want to buy another component for using the scanner. On the other hand you could use the [Preview.app](http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/pdf/) built into MAC OS X with Image > Import Image. But this last solution only offers rudimentary functions for scanning. Good to scan a document but not for scanning photos in high quality and for archive purposes. And nevertheless none of these solutions worked for scanning directly in the new Adobe Photoshop CS3.

So I called the Canon Support two months ago but they could only say sorry and advertise for their new scanner LiDE 600f which has a new Universal-driver and so on. But it hasn't really any new functions. And spending 100$ or so just for a new driver? So what??! They really wanted me to replace my scanner, which isn't a year old. Damn Canon-Support! So I had to keep on searching on all Canon-websites and finally...

The aim of this article is to give you a quick introduction of a css property named text-shadow which was first included in CSS2 (but it's not implemented in all browsers yet). Nevertheless you can make some cool effects with it, which could only be done before by photoshopping text and rendering it as an image.

|

|
||||
The main goal of this property is to give designers and css coders a tool to make text effects, which could only be done before by rendering text as images with all the side effects. Text rendered as an image isn't searchable and therefore very undelicious for search engines. Another side effect is the fact that images can be way more bigger as one small line of code in terms of file size. As you may know most css-files, which contain the whole layout of a website, are smaller than one image on most websites. So it's really clever to use a css function instead of images for reducing unnecessary traffic.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Utilizing text-shadow to simulate engraved or stenciled text is widely used on websites. Apple did it everywhere in Mac OS X not just since Leopard (just look at the titlebars). So if you design a website for Mac users you can increase the sexyness of your website, because this particular usage of text-shadow integrates very well with the overall look of Mac OS X. I will explain how to achieve this engraved-text-on-metal effect later on in this article.

It's available [from Apple's Developer Connection](https://connect.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MemberSite.woa/wa/getSoftware?bundleID=20044) for registered members (registering is free). You can grab the Aperture 2.1 plugin-SDK (3D9) as a 595KB download from there and start coding.

There are already some lists like this available on the web and they are always very subjective so I thought I should add my subjective list too. While Aperture was released I was coding this website and had not much time for writing about it. So although a bit late here is my absolutely biased list of my favorite 15 new features included in Apple's Aperture since version 2.0. It's in a nice countdown order ending with the best new feature (to me) at the bottom. Just click on the little screenshots to smoothly zoom to the full version of them.

Been so in love with the parallax effect that I have to post another article about it. It's time for a first showcase of websites using this effect. At the end of this article you'll find some tutorials for making this effect too.

These two desktop icons show the Camera Obscura as it was used by Nicéphore Niépce in an Aperture and iPhoto style and are intended as an homage to him. Nicéphore Niépce made it first possible to preserve an image taken with a camera obscura in 1826 or 1827 by using a special mixture of bitumen on a pewter plate, naming it Heliography.

Niépce was a multitasking French inventor who became famous for his experiments trying to preserve the projected image inside of the Camera Obscura. The Camera Obscura uses a well known optical phenomenon which is known to mankind for quite a long time.

After some more tries and combining other elements in his procedure he was able to produce the famous First Photograph "View from the Window at Le Gras" in 1826 or 1827 by utilizing a bitumen of Judea-coated pewter plate and improved lenses from the Paris optician, Charles Chevalier. He called this procedure Heliography and the bitumen-coated pewter plate needed an exposure of eight or more hours!

By the way, in 2002 another picture made by Niépce was discovered which dates back to 1825. It was made in a process he called Heliogravure and it was an image of an (engraving) image (showing a man leading a horse). But since the scientific definition of the First Photograph is "the world's first permanent photograph from nature", _View from the Window at Le Gras_ remains the first "real" photograph.

The [EOS Digital Rebel XS/1000D/Kiss F](http://www.canon-europe.com/For_Home/Product_Finder/Cameras/Digital_SLR/EOS_1000D/index.asp) ([full product specifications](http://www.canon-europe.com/For_Home/Product_Finder/Cameras/Digital_SLR/EOS_1000D/index.asp?specs=1)) is technically a hybrid between hardware and features found in Canon's entry-level cameras from the past: the 7-point autofocus system comes from the XT/350D, the Digic III processor is the same as in the XSi/450D and the Live View feature is implemented with the same features as found in the XSi/450D.

It's priced 200$ below Canons current or former entry-level DSLR XSi/450D and you can find a nice first review of this new DSLR [over at Digital Photography Review](http://www.dpreview.com/previews/Canon_1000D/).

Since Wordpress 2.5 it was nearly impossible for me to log into Wordpress and quickly head over to the write tab. The Dashboard always wants to load a bunch of things in it but this always seemed to fail in my setup and slow things down. And not enough the Dashboard just locks everything up while loading which can take more than one minute.

Just some self reference here. I've launched a slick new site under [matthiaskretschmann.com](http://matthiaskretschmann.com) today which has an absolute simple concept. It's kind of a digital business card site for being digitally present under my name. Beside that it has Links to my social media stuff so it's easier for you to stalk me. In the 90's we probably would have called it a Portal.

To me a more cleaner solution is to use the css background-image property to include the icon images. Just add a class or an id to every share link like so:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<a class="delicious" href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=http://YOUR URL&title=YOUR TITLE&notes=YOUR NOTES" title="Save To Delicious">Delicious</a>

<a

title="Save To Delicious"
|

>Delicious</a
|
||||
>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And in your CSS select this class and style it with a background image. Assuming you want the site icon to appear left beside the link text you would also have to add some padding so the text won't overlap the icons:
|
||||
|
||||
```css
|
||||
.delicious {

WordPress 2.9 added a new feature which allows you to assign an image to an article to make it the post image like it's often used in magazine style themes. This new feature along with a new template tag makes all the custom field hacks usually used for this functionality in the past obsolete. So here's a quick walkthrough to make use of the new post thumbnail feature and of course how to make it backwards compatible.

Pushing the pixels for yourself of course. So here's my take on the smaller sizes of an [Apple iPad](http://www.apple.com/ipad/) icon, called iPixelPad in the sizes 48px, 32px and 16px. Everything drawn pixel-perfect from scratch. Heck, even the wallpaper.
