    Armat, with JPG, there is a "compression" setting that will significantly impact file size. Just the resultion and image dimension is not what determines final file size with formats that use lossy compression (like JPEG). You can experiment with Image Ready which comes with Photoshop. Open a jpg image in there, and you can switch between the original and optimized view using the tabs above the image. In the optimized view, play with different quality settings in the "Optimize" dialog window. They have pre set settings like "Low", "Medium", and "High" or you can pick your own quality value between 0 and 100. The image size with and without optimization is displayed in the status area right below each image. There are many more things you can do there and also view several different versions (with various quality levels) at the same time to decide on the best one. I use that program a LOT more than photoshop! Edit: And don't be surprised if you play with the quality and don't notice almost any visually noticable differences in the image while the file size can change very drastically!

    Any bigger and you could just as well just print them out on 8x10 and not buy.

    Where is says "" at the top of each HTML file, you should change and put your own title. That's the text that shows up at the top of the window in the browser (title bar). You can edit the HTML file using any text editor such as notepad. At first, maybe copy it to a backup location until you get the hang of what to change and what not to change.

    First off, main page looks much better! In your case, I knew it was photoshop just from the look. But if you look inside the HTML files it generates (or if you do view source from Internet Explorer), you'll see this: <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Adobe Photoshop 6.0 Web Photo Gallery</TITLE> <META name="generator" content="Adobe Photoshop(R) 6.0 Web Photo Gallery"> <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> </HEAD> ... By the way, you may find it easier just to mess with HTML sometimes directly as opposed to using Dreamweaver or other programs. The tags in html are very similar to what you would use for posting here. for bold, for italic, text to do centering, etc.
  6. ... "America's First Peacetime Atom Bomb Fatality" WOW! Chalk up another first for Armenians! Edit: By the way, the details of his death are downright disturbing

    Oh and don't you want your name to stick out on the first page? It's barely visible with the chosen color and the background. Maybe make it white? Same goes for the links on the bottom of the page. You make want to make the buttons in photoshop as images with their own background? How about centering them? Just a couple of suggestions.

    Looks good Armat. I would suggest you take a look at Web Album Generator instead of using photoshop. The photoshop templates can be made to look much better with a bit of tweaking (for example, I would change their image title font sizes to something a bit smaller) but that program above does a great job right away. Plus it will let you add a descriptive caption for each image. You can also save the gallery to come back and add/make changes which will make future improvements very easy. If you want to see an exmple of a gallery made by Album Generator, check this out. I have also used photoshop but then edit the index files it generates to make them look like this. The main thing I change is the font size and text spacing under each image to make it more compact and tight looking. Then again, it's all about artistic taste

    Cheap Wines!

    Is there an online place one could order Armenian pomegranate wine? Tried a quick search on the forum but didn't find anything in the archives.
  13. eeeeeeeeeeeew .. snamke venom ... I hate that!
  14. In contrast, I think most guys have simple needs ... I call it the "1 f, 2 s" or the "2 f, 1 s" if you will: ... food, sex, and spelling ability.
  15. That made me think ... which would I choose if I had to make a choice ... assuming both came in buffet form of course
  16. I have two questions: 1. Do other species consider their virgin births offsprings of their God? 2. Do we as humans consider our more than one virgin births as anything other than humanly births?
  17. Just believing in something is not religion. Believing in something without a fundamentally sound way of believing in something is however. For example, I believe if I throw a ball in the air, it will land back on earth. That is not religion. It is a system of belief arrived at using the scientific method. I also believe that if I cut my arm off, it will hurt. It is not something I have experienced before but I have arrived at that conclusion based on fundamentally sound ways to reason about what would happen if I cut my arm off. However, someone saying "God doesn't exist" (or the opposite "God exists") is rather arbitrary and either requires faith or just a blind belief in that statement. No one can prove or disprove the existence of God and therefore taking either stance constitutes a religion (a system of thought). Being agnostic though is not a religion. It's being reasonable
  18. One can't prove God doesn't exist. So in order to believe God doesn't exist one just has to believe ... and that, sounds like a religion to me.

    Sounds Of Armenia

    Excellent thread I would like to contribute one song that always manages to bring a tear to my eye. It's called Kuriki.
  20. Azat, I used to have that input box but not anymore. I tried separating names by comma and space and that didn't work. Maybe it's a feature now that the smods have but not the others.
  21. Anileve, if you had any doubts, I think this will explain it all.
  22. How is this effort showing anything about genetics? If nothing else, they have shown how sexual behavior is influenced by environments and sheer numbers. Just throw a bunch of guys in prison and they'll start mouting each other. I think this is a great effort at showing homosexuality is not a human only trait and therefor it's probably not influenced by the devil.
