Ho to Create your Own WallPaper or Desktop Background
Would you like to have one of your pictures as a desktop background? It’s easier than you think!
1. Figure out your screen resolution. Before you begin, you’ll need to figure out what size the final image needs to be. Fortunately, this is really easy. Just right-click a blank area on your desktop and select Properties from the resulting menu. Then, click the Settings tab on the resulting screen. Look at the Screen resolution area and write down the current setting.
2. OK, now you know the size you need, the next step is to pick a photo. So, head to your archives and open the photo you want to use in your favorite imaging program. I’ll wait here.
3. Have the photo opened? Cool. Now, adjust anything that needs adjusted (color, saturation, etc). Now, you’ll need to resize the image to match your monitor resolution. This setting varies by program, but it’s usually found under the Edit or Image menu in most programs.
Most programs will have an option to “constrain proportions”. This keeps the image proportional as you change sizes. Make sure this option is checked or the image may look distorted. For more on how this works, check out:
http://www.worldstart.com/tips/tips.php/1587 or http://www.screencalendar.com/widescreen.html
Now, here’s the trick. You may find that when you resize the image with the proportions constrained, the numbers don’t work out to match your screen resolution. If the numbers are close (say within 10 pixels), don’t worry about it. Any distortion will be minimal. However, if you find the numbers are off by quite a bit, you’ll need to either crop the image or put it onto a black background that is proportional to your screen resolution.
For the details on how to do this, check out our Constrain Proportions article (linked above). It will explain in detail how you can turn an image that’s not proportional into one that is.
4. Once your have your image resized, cropped, and generally ready to go, save it as a JPEG. I’d put it in the “My Pictures” folder for easy reference, but the choice is yours.
5. Last step! Right-click your desktop, select Properties from the resulting menu, then go the Desktop tab. Click the Browse button and navigate to the image you just saved. Select it, hit OK and you should now have your photo set as your desktop wallpaper!
Happy wallpapering.

How to protect your own folder, in windows XP
Password Protect Folders in XP
Do you share a computer with other users and want some extra security on your folders? There are two ways to password protect a folder built into Windows XP (for other Windows flavors, there are some freeware/shareware programs out there).
#1 If you have a log in password for your account, this can be used to protect folders from other users. Your hard drive must be formatted using NTFS (which it probably is unless you’re dual booting with another operating system). Here’s what to do…
Right-click the folder that you want to make private and choose “Properties” (or Alt+Double-click). Go to the “Sharing” tab and check the “Make this folder private” box.
Click Apply . If you do not have a password on your account, a box will pop up asking if you want to assign a password. This must be done if you want to make the folder private, so click Yes . You will need to use your password to log on to your computer from then on.
Type in a password then confirm it. Click the “Create Password” button then close the Password window.
Click OK in the Properties dialog box.
Now anyone else logged on to your computer can’t access that file without knowing your password.
#2 If the Folder is Zipped you can give it a unique password.
Just double-click the zipped folder. In the top menu select File then click “Add a Password”.
Type a password into the Password box. Then again in the “Confirm Password” box.
Now, you are the only person who can access files in this folder. The folder can be opened allowing the files to be seen, but you are the only one who can access them.
Don’t you feel more secure now?

How to write and email address to your friends
Is email Address are Case Sensitive?
Oooh, what a great question! You’re actually the first one to ever ask me this, so I applaud you for your good thinking. It’s a very legit question and it’s very important information for all computer users to know. We here at Gmail have talked about URLs being case sensitive before, but it never even crossed my mind to write about e-mail addresses. But that’s all going to change today. Here we go!
Let’s say one of your closest friends just set up an e-mail account and you ask them what their new e-mail address is. They write it down for you on a piece of paper and when you go to e-mail them, you realize they wrote it in all CAPS. So, you sit there and ponder for awhile if you’re really supposed to type it in all CAPS or not. Will it make a difference? If you do, will your friend still get your e-mail? If you don’t, will they still receive it? You have so many questions!
Well, I can tell you if you’re ever uncertain as to whether or not an e-mail address is case sensitive, it’s likely it’s not. Most ISPs (Internet Service Providers) and other e-mail clients don’t care which way an e-mail address is typed. That means you can pretty much type it out whichever way you please. For example, ADMIN@GMAIL.COM is the same as admin@gmail.com. Either way you type it, the e-mail will still go through successfully.
However, there are some exceptions. There are instances where the first part of an e-mail address is case sensitive, but the second part is not. The first portion consists of a user’s username (alias or group name, etc.) and if the e-mail server for that address declares it case sensitive, it definitely matters which way you type it. For example, if an e-mail address is case sensitive, admin, Admin, ADMIN or adMIN would all be considered different users. You’d just have to check with the e-mail server to see if it requires an address to be case sensitive or not. It rarely happens, but if you’re having trouble getting an e-mail to go through, you may want to check on that.
Now, you should also keep in mind that spaces are not allowed in e-mail addresses. If you accidentally hit the Spacebar when you’re typing out an e-mail address, your e-mail will not be sent out. You can, of course, break an e-mail address up with periods, dashes and underscores, but those are much different than a space. Also, if you’re sending an e-mail out to multiple recipients, make sure you separate each of them with a comma. If you just run all of them together, your e-mail client will be confused and the e-mails will bounce back to you.
Just a few things to keep in mind when you’re working with e-mail addresses. I hope they help!

ASCII Character Codes Chart
ASCII stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. It is the standard format used for text files within computers and online.
As computers can only understand numbers, the ASCII code is the numerical representation of alphabetic and special characters, such as ‘a’ and/or the ‘©’ symbol.
In order to display special characters or symbols within your HTML pages, you must use a special ASCII code. The codes below display the HTML code and the character when displayed on your web page.
For example, if you’d like to place your copyright information on your web site, you will need to include a special ASCII Character Code within your HTML that looks like this:
©
When you place this ASCII Character Code within the HTML of your web page, it will display the copyright symbol, which will look like this:
©
Here’s how your HTML code might look:
Copyright © YEAR YOUR COMPANY NAME
The above HTML code will display like this within your web page:
Copyright © YEAR YOUR COMPANY NAME
Another example of using an ASCII code is for the trademark symbol. To display the trademark symbol within a web page, you must use the ASCII Character Code that looks like this:
™
When you place this ASCII Character Code within the HTML of your web page, it will display the trademark symbol, which will look like this:
™
Here’s how your HTML code might look:
Business™
The above HTML code will display like this within your web page:
Business™
Another great use for the ASCII code is display your email address. For example, instead of dispaying your email address within your HTML with the @ symbol, use the ASCII code equivalent. Your HTML code will look something like this:
you@yourdomain.com
Your email address will look like this within your web page:
you@yourdomain.com
This provides a great way to prevent your email address from being harvested by spam bots.
To use any of the characters displayed within the ASCII codes chart, copy & paste the HTML code to the left of the character you would like to use.
The above ASCII character codes are excerpts from Web Design Mastery
Web Design Mastery is a complete step by step guide to designing a professional web site. Not only will you learn how to design a professional web site, but you’ll also learn in the easiest possible fashion — with hundreds of copy & paste codes…

Selecting a Quality Domain Name
When you’re ready to launch your web site and you’re trying to select a good domain name, there are many factors that need to be taken into consideration.
Select a Domain Name that Reflects Your Web Site
Above all else, your domain name should reflect what your web site is all about. For example, if your web site is about grooming a dog, you certainly wouldn’t want to select a domain name like ‘mybusinessname.com,’ as this would have nothing to do with your web site’s focus. You would want to select a domain name that tells the world what your web site is all about — something like ‘doggrooming.com.’
Select a Domain Name that Contains Your Web Site’s Keywords
Another consideration of great importance are your keywords. Try to select a domain name that contains your most relevant keyword phrase, as some Search Engines place relevancy on them. A keyword phrase is two or more words that best describe your web page. If your web page is focusing on grooming a dog, your best keyword phrase will be “dog grooming.”
Select a Domain Name that will be Easily Remembered
With millions of web sites accessible on the Internet, it is also very important to select a domain name that will be easily remembered. As in the ‘doggrooming.com’ example above, ‘doggrooming.com’ is very easily remembered, contains the most relevant keyword phrase and describes the web site in explicit detail. It is the ‘perfect’ domain name for this particular web site.
Select the Best Domain Extension
Another consideration of importance is the domain name extension. Although there are many new domain extensions available, dotcom is still the best choice. When typing in a web address, Internet users automatically want to type in a .com extension, as this is the extension that has been embedded into our brains from the start.
Avoid Using Numbers in Your Domain Name
Although you may be tempted to do so, avoid using numbers within your domain name. Including a number within your domain name can cause problems, as when you tell someone your web address, you will continually have to tell them it’s a number and not the word. For example, if you selected a domain name like number1host.com, if you were to tell someone your web address, they may try to type it as ‘numberonehost.com’ instead of ‘number1host.com.’ This type of domain name would cause confusion.
Avoid using Dashes and Underscores in Your Domain Name
Although many people do it, don’t make the same mistake I made when I first started out. Avoid using dashes, underscores or any other characters within your domain name that may cause confusion. When I registered my domain name, Web-Source.net, I actually wanted websource.com; however, it had already been registered. So, I settled for Web-Source.net. Now, when I tell someone my domain name, I have to say it like this: web dash source dot net.
Don’t get me wrong, www.Web-Source.net is now a high traffic web site, but I can only imagine how much traffic I’ve lost over the years due to my domain name. I have received many emails over the years from visitors who had a hard time finding my site. They said they couldn’t remember the domain name and kept wanting to type in websource.com.
Avoid using Abbreviations within Your Domain Name
Although well-known companies, such as IBM, can get away with using abbreviations within their domain name, most companies can’t. As a rule, try to avoid using abbreviations or anything that will be difficult for your visitors to remember. Not only will this cause confusion, but it can also cause your potential visitors to make spelling mistakes when trying to type in your web address.
Avoid using Long Domain Names
Although you may now register long domain names, it’s really not a good idea. I learned this lesson the hard way. I registered ‘www.workfromhomebusinessguide.com’ and the sad thing is … I can’t remember the domain name half the time. How can I expect my potential visitors to remember it? Try to keep your domain name as short as possible. The longer the domain name the harder it is to remember and the more apt your potential visitors are to make a typo when typing it into their browser.
Ensure Your Domain Name is Not a Trademark Infringement
Prior to registering a domain name, you may want to consider searching the Trademark Electronic Search System, http://www.uspto.gov/main/trademarks.htm to ensure your potential domain name isn’t infringing on any trademarks.
Please don’t take this point lightly, as trademark infringement could cost you your entire business. It is your responsibility to ensure that your potential domain name doesn’t infringe on any registered trademarks, as the trademark laws that apply in the hard copy world also apply on the Internet. Any company that registers a trademark has the right to protect their trademark and has the right to notify you that your domain name is infringing upon their trademark.
When you’re ready to begin, create a list of a dozen or more potential domain names, as chances are, your first choice will already be taken. With any luck, one of the domain names on your list will be available.
Take your time and select a quality domain name that will grow with your business. It will be well-worth your time and effort in the long run.

Free HTML Tips and Tricks to build better web
When you begin designing your HTML web pages, you may find that many HTML courses fall short when it comes to providing you with special effect HTML codes and tips.
However, there are many special effect HTML codes that will enable you to enhance your visitors’ experience tremendously.
When trying to decide what HTML codes to use within your web pages, keep in mind, if it doesn’t enhance your web page, it’s probably best to leave it out, as the more special effects you add to your page, the longer your page will take to load.
In addition, prior to using any of these HTML codes and tips within your web pages, you must ensure that the effect you’re trying to achieve doesn’t irritate your visitors.
For example, using HTML codes that load web pages within web pages may crash your visitors browser. In addition, using excessive pop up windows, frames and placing scrolling text within the status bar can be very irritating and cause your visitors to leave your web site and never return.
Please ensure you select your special HTML codes very carefully and use them to your fullest advantage.

When you begin designing your web site, try to keep your main HTML page as small as possible. For example, instead of trying to cram all your information into a single web page, consider creating sections for your content. These sections can contain highlights of your content with a link to further information. You can set up your content sections in HTML tables with colored heading sections for information such as articles, products or whatever you’d like.
To keep your main HTML page smaller, it is much better to keep it down to the most essential elements. You can then use links to additional pages to provide the detailed information. A good rule of thumb is Less is More.
To enhance your web page, you can format your text using bold headlines, colored HTML table cells, and graphic bullets and/or arrows.
If you use the same graphic bullets and arrows throughout your page, you can enhance your page’s appearance, but you won’t add any additional time to your web page load time. When you reuse an image, your image only has to load once. When the image has loaded, it will instantly be displayed in all of the other locations.
