Is SQL Server 2008 a good option to use as an image store for an e-commerce website? It would be used to store product images of various sizes and angles. A web server would output those images, reading the table by a clustered ID. The total image size would be around 10 GB, but will need to scale. I see a lot of benefits over using the ...
Sometimes two image files may be different on a file level, but a human would consider them perceptively identical. Given that, now suppose you have a huge database of images, and you wish to know if a human would think some image X is present in the database or not. If all images had a perceptive hash / fingerprint, then one could hash ...
Hi folks, i've got some binary data which i want to save as an image. When i try to save the image, it throws an exception if the memory stream used to create the image, was closed before the save. The reason i do this is because i'm dynamically creating images and as such .. i need to use a memory stream. this is the code: [TestMetho...
Hi, Say I have a bitmap image, is it possible to iterate through all the individual bytes in the image? If yes, how? ...
I've come across an issue where some images on a site load under https but do not load under http. For example if you go to https://www.mydomain.com/myimage.gif, the image appears fine, but if you go to http://www.mydomain.com/myimage.gif the image comes back with a not found error. This happens to only certain images. Other images lo...
When I include an image as an <img> tag as well as a background image on a DOM element, the browser sometimes makes two requests for the same image. This also sometimes happens when using the hover pseudo-property. For example: <html> <head> <style> div{ background: transparent url(/img/stuff.png) no-repeat; } div:...
I'm making a web application and I got the design for it from a sub-contracted design company. The design is pretty nice, I like it, but I've stumbled across one thing I'm not sure how to implement nicely. The thing is - they've redesigned the looks of buttons to match the page style. So now I have two images - button up and button down...
We have to convert EVERYTHING to images for archiving purpose. DOC, HTML, email, ZIP, PDF, TXT and any document you can read/view on computer. In addition, it must recursive convent on all embed attachment and files in zip. I know ImgMaker only. Is it the best or I can have something better? My boss ask me to search that are there any ...
Is there a better, more jQuery-ish way of handling this image substitution? var image = $(obj).children("img"); if ($(image).attr("src") == "Images/TreeCollapse.gif") $(image).attr("src", "Images/TreeExpand.gif"); else $(image).attr("src", "Images/TreeCollapse.gif"); ...
I need a tool to automatically convert simple HTML into an image. I will be controlling the HTML input which will consist of simple text formatting tags and possibly image links--I don't need to be able to render arbitrary HTML. Is there a simple way to do this? I've looked at the HTML layout engines like Gecko and Webkit, but frankly ...
Current project involves a series of PDFs in various sizes. Each PDF has a place for a logo. There are 50 or so possible logos. They are a consistent size, and, regardless of which PDF size, the logo does not need to be resized, just placed. The client currently just has a few PDFs but will be adding more on a regular basis. I am ...

Hi, I am trying to make a combined image of all images added to a modell in django with inline editing and a ForeignKey. Ive got these models (simplified): class Modell(models.Model): title = models.CharField('beskrivelse', max_length=200) slug = models.SlugField() is_public = models.BooleanField('publisert', default=True)...
Hi! In Latex how can you make the background image to occupy the whole sheet on every page except a certain stripe on the inner side of each page? I can't figure it out. I have a background image I'd like to be seen in whole on each page after printing/binding. Matyi ...
So I'm trying to take a bilinear interpolation algorithm for resizing images and add in alpha values as well. I'm using Actionscript 3 to do this, but I don't really think the language is relevant. The code I have below actually works really well, but edges around "erased" regions seem to get darker. Is there an easy way for it to not i...
Is there a .NET library I can use to programmatically generate my own GIF images? At a minimum I'd like to build it pixel-by-pixel. Better would be support for text and shapes. Here's an example of what I'm trying to do. I mocked this up in Photoshop What do you recommend? ...
On this page (http://www.bonniesphere.com/blog/elsewhere/) the "li" items have an image instead of a bullet. But the image is centered vertically, and in multi-line entries it doesn't look good. Can anyone tell me if there is something in the CSS that should be changed? Here's the relative code: .entry ul {list-style-type:none;} .entry...
I'm writing some code to scale a 32 bit RGBA image in C/C++. I have written a few attempts that have been somewhat successful, but they're slow and most importantly the quality of the sized image is not acceptable. I compared the same image scaled by OpenGL (i.e. my video card) and my routine and it's miles apart in quality. I've Google ...
We've all seen cool WPF demo-applications with rich media. My question is if WPF-objects can replace some basic functionality in ImageMagick. Basic functions like resizing images, cropping and so on. The results from .NET 2.0's System.Graphics-namespace's resizing is just sad (GDI+). Maybe I'm using it wrong, but out of the box it seem...
Each month I get new CMYK and RGB images that shall be used on the web. I had a script using a patched up ImageMagick doing this, but it got deleted. So I need to do it again, but it was hard last time. How do you easily and quickly convert CMYK image files to RGB? ...
