Keep in mind that Drupal essentially is just an attractive and flexible interface to a back end database. So it's worthwhile to take a look at that database to understand what exactly happens when you create, modify, and delete content in Drupal. This understanding will make Drupal administration a lot clearer overall and it opens up a world of possibilities if you are an advanced programmer or a database administrator.

Inside of Photoshop we will open the two screen captures that we made, put them into one image layer and save it out as a PDF. So let's get going on this. Let's go up to the File menu, scroll down to Open, which would be Command+O or Ctrl+O, navigate out to our Desktop, and select Picture 1 and hold down your Shift key and select Picture 2, and click on Open.

In Drupal 6: Online Presentation of Data, Tom Geller explains how Drupal handles data so users can set up intelligent structures and implement them with Drupal's Content Construction Kit.

We've talked about how information being well designed and having a hierarchy is important. But what makes you want to stay at a well-designed homepage? For me designing a homepage is all about thinking 3D, not 2D. It actually is a house.

Continuing our discussion of Web design principles, we should take a look at information hierarchy. The way to think about it is WE SEE, THEN WE READ. Web designers often do 4 or 5 jobs. They design the graphic elements, they create the interface design, navigation design, interaction design and often are required to design the information. But it should be done on a hierarchical basis that makes sense from the most important to the least important, from the general to the specific.

We AVid users have had a BIG problem, and that was working with footage that was not OMF or (now) MXF. Any footage that wasn't captured via the digitize tool needed to be imported and converted to either OMF or MXF, and in many cases, the process was excruciatingly long if files weren't rendered with the Avid Codec. Thankfully, with Media Composer 5, that is no longer the case.

With Media Composer version 5, Avid is moving in not only a forward direction, but in a bit of a sideways direction as well. Premiere Pro CS5 and Final Cut Pro are drag-and-drop editing applications. This means that you can not only drag clips from the preview window and drop it into your timeline, but you now have an extensive amount of flexibility when dragging clips around in your timeline as well.
