Tutorials

Ever find yourself wondering just how someone managed to create an image using different effects?

Here are three simple tutorials we hope will encourage you to try something new.

The Hot Seat

A lifelong interest in landscape photography has led Eyal Oren to make a study of his adopted hometown of Marblehead, MA. As you can see, his dedication is paying off!

Africa!

Dgrinners Harryb, Pathfinder, and others joined Andy Williams and Marc Muench on Safari in East Africa recently. Here are some awesome threads to check out!

Sorry andy I had to delete your post...

That's bad bad bad advice. Everyone please don't use the <font> tag anymore.

If you want to only change the colors of the links in your bio simply put this in your css box.

#bioBox a:link {color:#f00;}
#bioBox a:visited {color:#fff;}
#bioBox a:hover {color:#0f0;}
#bioBox a:active {color:#ff0;}

Obviously you may want to change the color values to something that matches your site.

mike,

i have done all those, and worked great but when i tried to apply the same method for the photo caption box ie by doing this
#photoCaption a:link {color:#ffff00;}
#photoCaption a:visited {color:#ff00ff;}
#photoCaption a:hover {color:#00ffff;}
#photoCaption a:active {color:#ff8800;}

didnt seem to work? any other alternative?

thanks

That's because there is no #photoCaption...

First put this above all your other link color stuff:

a:link {color:#ffff00;}
a:visited {color:#ff00ff;}
a:hover {color:#00ffff;}
a:active {color:#ff8800;}

That will probably solve 90% of your link color issues. Do that and then I'll help you with any other specifics.

If your caption links didn't change use this:

.caption a:link {yadda yadda}
.caption a:visited
etc
etc

(please replace the yadda yadda and the etc etc with the approprate code.)
