I released my new Plugin to showcase your Facebook photo albums to WordPress, with a nice animated interface using jQuery, not flash, so your get rid of another bag of flash 
Here’s a Live demo which looks like the image below:
Here’s the official page for Darkroom facebook photo gallery where you can comment and get help:
Después de luchar con Movistar (ver artículo anterior IPhone4 with “no data” issue) por los repetidos problemas de la red de datos “No cellular data network found” y otros como “Safari is not connected to internet” (“No se encontró una red de datos celular” o “Safari no está conectado a internet”) finalmente encontré una solución, y vino de la mano de Apple. Claro que no la hubiera encontrado si no hubiera usado previamente otra opción extra-oficial que hacía lo mismo, pero aparentemente Apple vió el problema ocurriendo incluso usando el operador “oficial”.
En Argentina, la configuración para Movistar (Movistar-ar) provista en el iPhone de fábrica, lo que le llaman el “bundle” (Movistar-ar.bundle) trae la configuración correcta, pero por razones extrañas el IPhone no la toma si no se ponen a mano, como si el “bundle” o el operador no existieran.
La solución, no es tan fácil para alguien que sólo quiere soluciones. Hay que instalar un programa en Mac o Windows, crear una nueva configuración, poner los datos de APN provistos por Movistar (me dieron datos distintos en distintas ocasiones), enviar el archivo por email a una cuenta activa en el iPhone4 en cuestión, abrir el attachment… (more…)
There’s a photoshop filter to do this in one control panel.
I’ll write about this later. For now, the samples speak for themselves. Below the Action file to download and run.
From first to last, the following samples were made using the action-only to action-plus-manual-retouching.
Wouldn’t you like to get Photoshop understand orders like “smoot the freckles out, and then re-apply the pores” or “smooth out the dimples but keep the fine wrinkles only” and then getting a Professional Photo Retoucher to guide you through all necessary steps to clean-up your photo without clicking thousands of times with the stamp tool? – Some wouldn’t, though. I’ve seen tutorials from some photographers showing a cloning-stamp-a-ton video in high speed as an heroic resistance challenge, just to accomplish what you do with this action.
This action, uses a technique similar to the one used by “sharpen mask” filter, to detect detail under a certain ratio, and keeps it in a separate layer, while you smooth out the rest. It’s based in my “perfect skin” action, but adds the needed steps and instructions for you to get it done faster.
Once you finish the automated part, you can go ahead and practice a little with the Dodge and Burn tools, to lighten dark sides and darken light ones of bumps.
Let me know if it doesn’t adhere to your workflow for skin-care and I’ll do my best to help it better.
