How to Hold a Home Art ShowIn Feburary 2016 23,
In Feburary 2016 23,
Tailor your show to your space. Keep your guest list small enough that your guests will not be squished if they all arrive simultaneously. If you simply have more people than space, consider holding the show over multiple days and divide the guest list accordingly. Spreading the art throughout your home or studio is a great option, just make it clear which rooms may be off limits with discrete signs.
Create an eye-catching invitation. This can be a simply done black and white flyer, a glossy postcard or a thermographed invitation: whatever best sets the tone for your show. Open houses work well for folks with busy schedules to stop by when they can. Make sure the announcements go out at least four weeks before the show for the strongest attendance.
Remove unnecessary furniture. Too much seating invites guests to rest and chat and you want them on their feet, mingling and chatting about the art on display. Stowing the extra pieces in a room not being used for the show is best.Store knick-knacks and personal items away to avoid accidental breakages and set a more serene scene.
Arrange your wares. Make sure you have ample wall space for paintings. Bookshelves can be used for small sculptures. Three-dimensional items can stand on stools or end tables with enough room to walk around them for full effect. Move a table against a wall and use a variety of easels or plate stands to display a variety of smaller framed pieces.
Choose some mood music. Classical is always a safe bet but a post-modern display may cry out for house or techno. Whatever you choose, keep the volume low enough that guests can talk over it without screaming.
Set out hors d'oeuvres and drinks. Wine and cheese seem to be the favorites for most art shows. Whatever you serve, make sure to keep portions small (no more than two bites), portable and no-cutlery-required.
Keep price tags discrete but visible. You want guests to be able to see the asking price easily but not feel pressured. Business cards from your local office supply store folded in half lengthwise work well for containing the name of the piece, the medium and the price. For art on walls, clear labels printed with the necessary information can be placed on the wall beside or beneath the work.
Set up a discrete payment station. This is not merely a show-and-tell, it's an opportunity to sell some of your work so make sure you have the tools available to complete transactions. A bar or small table works well to hold a cash-box (perhaps in a decorative container if drawer space is not available), receipt book and business cards or additional flyers. If you expect to take credit cards, have a terminal available or you can use an online processor and print receipts from your printer.

How to Get Rid of the Red X on a WebsiteIn Feburary 2016 20,
In Feburary 2016 20,
Contact the web page administrator if it is not your web page. The administrator will have to fix the page coding or upload the correct images to remove the red 'X.' You can usually find the contact information at the bottom of web page or on a contact page listed in the site links.
Check your Internet connection. If you are viewing a web page and your Internet connection goes down, the page will not display correctly. This can result in the red 'X' appearing where images should be. Check your modem. If the connection lights are not lit, unplug the modem, then plug it back. It should take about 10 minutes for the modem to restart. If the Internet connection light does not light up after 10 minutes, call your Internet provider.
Open the web page in a text editor if it is your own web page. Check the URLs of all your IMG tags. For example, if the image tag says, , check the images folder for a green.jpg. If it is not there, change the URL, or upload the image to that folder.
Check to see if Internet Explorer has images turned off. Go to 'Tools,' then 'Internet Options.' Next, click on the 'Advanced' tab. Check the box that says 'Show Pictures.'
Turn off your anti-virus software, then check the website again. Some anti-virus software can block images.

How to Create a HyperlinkIn Feburary 2016 19,
In Feburary 2016 19,
Open up the page to which you want to add the HTML link. Right-click on the file and select 'Open with.' Choose 'Notepad' or 'Wordpad.' This should open the HTML file in a text editor.
Find the place on the page where you want the hyperlink to appear. For example, if you want to position the link within a paragraph, locate the word in the paragraph that you want to turn into a hyperlink.
Decide where you want to direct the link. For example, let's say you want people to reach www.ehow.com when they click the link. Decide on the words you want to display for the link itself. For example, let's opt for 'How to do do just about everything.'
Add the following code at your chosen point: How'>http://www.ehow.com' rel='nofollow' rel='nofollow'>How to do do just about everything. . Replace the ehow link with your destination link and the text before the code with your preferred text. This is now a hyperlink.
Include only the page name and the forward slash for hyperlinks within your own site. For example, to link to a contact page for a site called www.yoursite.com, add in the appropriate part of your hyperlink. This will direct the user to http://www.yoursite.com/contact
Save your work and close the file. Upload the file to your host account using your chosen FTP (file transfer protocol) software. Try the hyperlink out live on your site to ensure it's working as intended.

Java GUI Design TutorialIn Feburary 2016 17,
In Feburary 2016 17,
The Java JDK (Java Development Kit) includes the Java virtual machine, the Java compiler and a wide range of useful libraries (or 'packages,' in Java parlance) including AWT and Swing. The place to go for the latest Java is The Source for Java Developers (see link in Resources). On the right-hand column you will see Popular Downloads, click 'Java SE' to bring up a new page. Look for the JDK that comes with NetBeans (see link in Resources). Download and install.
Using NetBeans to Make Your First GUI
With NetBeans IDE and the Java SDK installed, building the first GUI is easy. NetBeans IDE will display a start page that includes links to tutorials on the NetBeans IDE and Java. This example creates a simple application to say, 'One World!' At the top left of the NetBeans IDE, click File > New Project. A New Project dialog box appears. Under Categories, click 'Java.' Under Projects, click Java Desktop Application > Next. A new screen comes up with the 'Project Name' and 'DesktopApplication1' highlighted. Change 'DesktopApplication1' to 'OneWorld!' Click 'Finish.' The dialog box will disappear. NetBeans IDE will reorganize itself into three tabbed windows--one labeled 'Projects,' a middle one showing a Design layout for a simple GUI and the third labeled 'Palette,' which shows different Containers and Controls. Under Palette > Swing Controls > Label. Grab and pull it into the middle display, in the middle part of the gray GUI space. The Label will become surrounded by some smaller drag handles (for resizing) and some thin gray-blue guidelines and in the middle, the text will read 'jLabel1.' Double click 'jLabel1,' and type 'One World!' Press the 'F6' key to run the program. You have built your first Java GUI.
Next Steps
To learn more, follow the tutorials for Java available with the NetBeans IDE. Begin with a detailed tutorial to help you deepen your knowledge and expertise in Java (see link in Resources).

FTP Server Vs. Web ServerIn Feburary 2016 11,
In Feburary 2016 11,
An FTP server uses the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) and a web server uses the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). FTP allows two computers to copy files to each other. HTTP provides methods to format and display text, pictures, and controls such as text boxes and buttons. HTTP describes what the user sees and how the user inputs information, while FTP does not.
Clients
Web browsers receive HTTP data from web servers and display that data in the way the web server dictates. Web browsers can also connect to FTP servers, but there are also many FTP client programs that can be used. When connecting to an FTP server, the browser or client determines how things are displayed instead of the server.
Setup Difficulty
Because a web server dictates what the user sees, the website has to be built in detail by a web designer. If files are to be shared using a web server, the web designer has to create links to the files and create an interface the user can use to upload files. For an FTP server, the files only need to be placed in a specific location and the user's FTP client will automatically create the interface necessary.

How to Add Columns to GridViewIn Feburary 2016 05,
In Feburary 2016 05,
Open Visual Studio. Click 'File' and select 'New Website.'
Click 'Visual C#,' and then double-click 'ASP.NET Website' to create a new website. The markup code for the default Web page appears in the center of the Visual Studio window.
Click the 'Design' button at the bottom of the window to view the form designer.
Click 'File' and select 'Toolbox.' Visual Studio will display the toolbox.
Scroll down and locate the 'GridView' control. Double-click that control to place it on the form.
Press 'F7.' The source code window will open and display this code:protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e){}This is the page load method. It runs when the Web page loads in a browser. Note the two bracket symbols below the first line of code.
Add this code between the two bracket symbols:// Lines 1-5System.Data.DataTable dataSourceTable = new System.Data.DataTable();dataSourceTable.Columns.Add(new System.Data.DataColumn('Model', typeof(string)));dataSourceTable.Columns.Add(new System.Data.DataColumn('Make', typeof(string)));dataSourceTable.Columns.Add(new System.Data.DataColumn('Color', typeof(string)));dataSourceTable.Rows.Add(originalColumnValues);// Line 6GridView1.AutoGenerateColumns = false;// Line 7GridView1.DataSource = dataSourceTable;The first five lines create a data source containing three fields: Model, Make and Color. Line six sets the GridView's 'AutoGenerateColumns' property to false. This prevents the GridView from generating columns automatically when you bind it to a data source. Line seven binds the GridView to the data source. At this point, the GridView displays no columns.
Add the following code below the code described in the previous step:/ Lines 8-12BoundField boundField = new BoundField();boundField.DataField = 'Make';boundField.HeaderText = 'Ford';DataControlField dataControlField = boundField;GridView1.Columns.Add(dataControlField);// Lines 13 = 17boundField = new BoundField();boundField.DataField = 'Model';boundField.HeaderText = 'Mustang';dataControlField = boundField;GridView1.Columns.Add(dataControlField);// Line 18GridView1.DataBind();Lines eight through 12 create a bound field. This field references the data source's 'Make' field. Line 10 assigns a value of 'Ford' to the bound field. You can make this value anything you like. This is the value that appears in the new column. Line 12 adds the bound field to the GridView. Lines13 through 17 create another bound field. This bound field references the data source's 'Model' field and sets its text value to 'Mustang.' Line 18 binds the GridView to the data source.
Press 'F5' to run the application. Your Web browser will open and display the GridView and the columns you added.
