I came back from my holidays, with tons of photos taken with my new digital camera. Normally, I prefer to take pictures using the best quality and resolution, and this - of course - implies having bigger files to manage. Often, at a good resolution, a single photo in JPG format takes more than 1 Mb, and this is not so comfortable if you want to send your pictures to your friends via email, or to put them on a web site. You have to reduce the quality of your pictures, resampling them at a lower r...

This is my second post, I tried in this one to help some programmers to deal with graphical concepts, so I take the wallpaper-desktop as a practice for this purpose. The only hard stuff in this article, I guess its the use of the API ! and because of that I added a document that will explain how to use this API (API-Explanation file)...

My four-year-old son has decided that he wants to be like his dad when he grows up. He is planning to work in my office, and write computer programs just like I do. But there is one problem—he thinks I write games. My attempts to explain the complex content publishing systems I work on didn't get very far. It seems that I will have to either get a job in the Xbox® group at Microsoft, or start developing games on the side, so I decided to write a simple game for this column to illustrate some int...

Most of us talk to our computers all the time. You wouldn't believe the things my wife says to her poor machine when something goes wrong. This article demonstrates how easy it is to enable managed applications to finally talk back using Microsoft's Speech API (SAPI). But don't worry: since you control what the application says, you can ensure it uses nicer language than my wife....

A number of articles ago, a simple wallpaper utility was written. I thought it would be nice to put together some of the concepts that we've looked at recently and create a new, enhanced wallpaper changer. Specifically, this application is no longer based on a specific file. Instead, it expects a folder in which it will find images. Upon startup, it will change the wallpaper, and it will even modify the placement behavior based on the size of the image found....

Need a function to convert between bitmap, GIF, EMF, JPEG, PNG, WMF, and ICO image formats, among others? Don’t buy a third-party control: this conversion is exactly what my next crafty little snippet does. And all in a mere dozen lines of code. Just call ConvertImage, passing in the filename of your current file, the desired format of your new file (using the enumeration), and your new filename....

Interacting visually with the Windows Desktop from code is fun, so I decided to see what it would take to change the appearance. It turns out that wallpaper is not directly accessible from managed code, but working with Win32 API’s is no problem in this case. Developing this application allowed me to work with methods imported from system DLL’s, the registry, the file open dialog, a custom enumerated type, and use datasource binding to that enumerated type....

Lets you do the most common image transformations, such as crop, rotate, resize.These operations produce majors changes to the overall appearence of the image either for visulation, or art-like effects. However while the overall look of the image has changes, the original image itself is still un-moved from the original image, only its appearance has changed....

This article describes step-by-step, with screen snapshots, how to create a polling service using VB.NET and Visual Studio 2005. It solves the problem of using timers in a service in a quick and simple manner. Over the years I have leaned on Code Project to help me get started on many projects that involved programming technologies I was not familiar with at the time. This last project required me to create a service for a set of code I had already written. So I headed over to Code Project to fi...
