WordPress v2.9 introduced Post Thumbnails (now called Featured Images). Since then the WordPress plugin repository has seen a host of plugins that help you create thumbnails, import images, resize them and regenerate them. In this post, I’ll feature five plugins that I’ve come across and use that make your thumbnail experience a better one. Auto…
At Techtites, over the past several months, I’ve been trying to optimise the site to get the best load times. This is why you’d have seen several new themes being experimented upon. I also use Cloudflare to improve performance.
Users of WordPress.com can rejoice especially for those who have the new retina screens. WordPress.

I have been writing about many useful Image editors and other excellent services that may come in handy for everyday life routine. Recently I have stumbled upon Change Images, a free web service that does almost everything you need to do. When I say “almost everything” I mean you can easily resize, crop, convert, add effects and photoframes and all that on one simple easy to use platform.
First, a short disclaimer: This post merely shows you a method. You alone are entirely responsible for what you use it for. There are times when we need to grab media like images, audio and sometimes even embedded video files from various sites.
The best way to protect your images on the internet is by adding watermarks to them. I personally feel that it is almost impossible to visit every webmaster and ask them to remove copyright images that originally belongs to you. Recently, I have discovered a new website that plays an important role by adding watermarks to your images and protect it from others.
I earlier reviewed a few web services that allows you to add funny effects to your pictures online within a matter of seconds. The process on each website is almost the same. You simply have to upload your picture and choose an effect.
Just confronted a very cool web service that allows you to convert scanned documents to text. OCRTerminal is an online Optical Character Recognition scan to text converter which basically tried to preserve the original formatting of the documents. Currently this service allows you to scan up to 30 scanned images per day and allows you to convert from JPG, GIF, BMP, TIF image formats into TXT, DOC, RTF text documents.
So, you have a huge collection of photos and other images. You can either view them in Microsoft Picture Viewer or you get better full fledged image viewers. Or you can get hold of IrfanView.
So you have this whole stack of images and you want to quickly go through them, without needing to add it as an album in Picasa or a similar photo organizer? FastStone MaxView is a tiny, very fast and innovative image viewer that supports all major graphic formats. Its intuitive layout and commands allow everyone, from beginners to professionals, to view and manipulate images quickly and efficiently.
If you’re on a Mac or you have already upgraded to Internet Explorer 7, then you’ll be pretty lost about how your site looks like on lower versions of Internet Explorer. For me this is a big problem because half my visitors to my several sites are still using IE6 and you have to admit that IE6 is a pathetic browser. IE7 is a lot more compliant and displays sites a lot correctly than its predecessors.
