Easy-to-follow instructions on how to make a website banner using Photoshop CS3.

Open Photoshop CS3 and create a new image with a width of 468 pixels, a height of 60 pixels and leave the resolution at 72 DPI.

In the Layers palette, double-click the Background layer and click OK in the dialog box that opens.

Select the Rectangular Marquee tool and make sure the new selection option is enabled.

Dragging from bottom-left to top-right, select an area the full width of the banner and 15 pixels high.  You can measure pixels with the rulers on the top and bottom of the screen (top ruler for width; left ruler for height).  There is always a line on the rulers to show you where your cursor is.  If you do not see it at first, move your cursor a little and you will.  For measurement, the long lines represent 10 pixels and the short lines represent 5 pixels.

From the Layers menu at the top of the screen, choose New/Layer via Copy.

In the Layers palette, double-click Layer 1.

The Layer Style dialog box will open.  On the left side, place a check beside Stroke.  Then click on Gradient Overlay (not just check, but click on the actual words).

Beside the gradient swatch, click Reverse.

Click on the Gradient Swatch, then double-click the white slider and choose a light-blue color.  I used #ccffff

Click Inner Glow on the left, then click the color swatch and choose the same color that you just used above.

Click OK in the top-right corner.

Up to this point, your banner should look simular to this:

In the Layers palette, double-click Layer 0 (what used to be the background).

Click on Gradient Overlay and click OK in the upper-right corner to leave it at default (white to black).

Type whatever you want, but be sure to stay above the red line, in order to keep the 3D dropshadow effect in the bottom section.  To render the text, click the check mark in the upper-right of the work area, or just press the Enter key on your numerical keypad.

In the Layers palette, double-click on the text layer and then click on Gradient Overlay on the left side of the Layer Style dialog box.

Click on the gradient swatch and follow what you see in the image below.

Settings
#999999, Location 0
#ffffff, Location 11
#ffffff, Location 91
#999999, Location 100

Click OK in the upper-right corner of the dialog box.

Your banner should now look simular to the following.  Just save it and upload it to your server for online use!

• You request your free SEO report.
• The service you request it from goes to a web-based SEO tool and pastes in your web address.
• The service gives you a copied and pasted duplicate of the SEO tool’s report.

*** You could have saved your time and perhaps your email address by doing that yourself.

*** The website that the service got the report from most likely handed out an extremely basic report.

The good services and those who have been around for awhile will export your SEO report to PDF.

The cheap ones and most newcomers will just paste the SEO report in a text or Word document and attach it to email, or worse yet, paste it directly into an email. (no offense to newcomers)

That’s Not Grey Storm Media’s Free SEO Report

When you request your free SEO report from Grey Storm Media, expect to receive a whole lot more than your money’s worth.

Average report length is 20 pages, but will vary.  This is easily the most detailed SEO report you will find…  ANYWHERE!

Turnaround time is 2-3 days.  If I get backed up with orders, I’ll let you know and give you a new estimated turnaround time.  First come; first served.

There is a lot to this free SEO report and it takes a lot of time.  To make up for all of that time, I am considering charging for it (between $25 and $50).  In fact, the paid service is currently being tested at ApSense (Detailed SEO Report) for $5. (no takers yet, as of 6:32 PM 2/20/2011. but I don’t expect much from a website who’s most popular member keyword is "make friends?")

To claim your free SEO report from Grey Storm Media while it’s still free:

* Go to my contact page

* Fill in your name and email address

* Choose Free SEO Analysis & Report as the subject (dropdown box)

* Type or paste your website address and the keyphrase that you are trying to rank for into the comments section

* Click the Send button at the bottom-left of the form.

If I have any questions (not likely), I’ll contact you within 24 hours.  Otherwise, I’ll begin working on your free SEO report within a few hours and send it to you in 2-3 calendar days (depending on how much information I gather about your site and competitors).

The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation & Library

I remember as a child I once pointed to the television and said to my mother, "I like that old man!"  That was in reference to President Ronald Reagan.

As a child, I was not sure what it was that I liked about him, other than the truth in his eyes and in his voice —and that child’s instinct for detecting truth.  Later on in life, it became obvious why I liked him: because he was right; because he was genuine and sincere.

Ronald Reagan did not stand at the podium and talk a bunch of B.S. like other politicians do.  He kept his promises and got things done.  He brought America back to prosperity and the world back to peace.

Of course, no presidency is perfect —that’s politics.  But President Ronald Reagan has been —and is still to date— the greatest thing to happen to America since the ratifying of the Constitution that he so proudly preserved, defended and upheld.

Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Reagan for your unmatched contribution to America, to Freedom, to Peace and to the world.  You are missed.

Touchpad technology has become a way of life for many who use laptops and other devices with this capability, but a new study led by a University of California researcher may replace the touchpad with “thoughtpad” technology.

I don’t know if a replacement would be a good idea.  Maybe as an additional option.  But that could be quite awkward, too.  Imagine if you were using the TouchPad and you accidently thought of where you wanted your cursor to go and it travelled a bit too far too fast and knocked over your coffee.  Then, when you thought, "Stop Doing That!" your cursor stopped taking instructions from your TouchPad entirely.  The good side?  Robin would have a new phrase: "Cursed Cursors, Batman!"

The study was led by Itzhak Fried, M.D., Ph.D., a professor of neurosurgery at the University of California, Los Angeles, and was funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), and the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH).  This research found that humans can control complex visual images with their mind on a computer screen.

This type of research was based on the development of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), which allow humans to manipulate computers with their thoughts.  In this particular study, the participants were 12 people with epilepsy because they already had fine wires implanted in their brains.  These wires are used to record seizure activity, but for the sake of this study, Itzhak and his team inserted the wires into the medial temporal lobe, which is a region of the brain responsible for memory and recognition of complex images.

The Good:  THAT’S FREAKIN’ AWESOME!

The Bad:  Great. Roll Out the Red Carpet for the Thought Police.

The Ugly:  I’d Sell My Soul to the Thought Police for a Test Drive! …

… But I won’t get wires planted in my brain.  That would be as bad as getting an OBEY! 84™ chip planted in my arm, or the big O’s SwineJuice 2009™ pumped into my veins…  No Thanks.  I’ll wait until they publicaly release the PCReadsYourMindFromAfarSoYouCanControlYourPCWithYourMindFromAfarPad.  Wow!  I hope that’s soon!  And what a name.  I should get paid for that.  (*whips out pack of Mentos™ with a smirk and a wink*)

On another note, imagine if we all used this technology to train our brains to control our thoughts to a very precice degree.  The entire human species would be a massive, chaotic pile of spoon benders within a matter of months.   Long live Indecision!

This post is meant to be humorous, not critical.  If you don’t get it, it’s likely that the Thought Police have already gotten you.
