How to Compress a picture?

General, How to?, Web April 20th, 2008

Transferring pictures over the net can take lot of time if you have a slow connection or the picture/image is huge!

by compressing a picture, the size is reduced hence accelerates the transfer but at the cost of the quality.

This article is for Novice Users

You wont need any extra software, just your simple paint program!

Below are the Steps:

  1. Print-Screen the Image/Picture
    Print Screen simply means taking a screenshot of the screen! lol
    How? Open the Picture/Image with your usual program and
    then Press the Print Screen key found at the top of your keyboard, just above your insert key(depends upon keyboard layout)
    By Pressing this key, a picture of the entire screen is taken.

    If You want to focus only on the window or program in the front end, press the following combination ( alt + Print Screen )

  2. Paste In Paintbrush
    Now, open your simple paint brush program and do >>Edit >> Paste
    You can now resize the picture or cut out (crop) those parts you dont want.

  3. Saving
    The final step, saving the new image file.
    Click File >> “Save as” and make sure to select “JPEG” from the drop down menu.

    Once saved, you can now send this new file to your contacts…
    For example, the picture being dealt with in this example was 235Kb and after doing a print screen, it is now 60Kb !

    Simple but Efficient !

Wikipedia says:

Snakes is an update to the classic Snake game from Nokia. It is freely downloadable from the Nokia N-Gage website, and can be copied to another N-Gage handset via Bluetooth. A new version is now available as an embedded game on most N-series smartphones from Nokia.

During our “narien a faire” time, we take turns to play, trying to reach the next levels, and just for tonight, we finished 4 levels i think.

The Queue level:

IT’S A SHAME for the Mauritius Police Force!

During my lunch time today, i SPOTTED 2 police vehicles, both in PARKED ILLEGALLY, just in from of A POLICE STATION, that of Pop Henessy, situated some meters from KFC Cathedrale.

hehe, as usual, i didnt fear taking out my mobile to take photographs of the scene!

One of them was parked along a yellow double line while the other lied midway on the pavement!

See the pictures below…

Mauritian Law : No more than 2 dogs!

About Me, Articles, Blogging, General, News March 29th, 2008

Hello everyone…

I was astonished by wat i read this morning in the Le Defi Plus newspaper…


title.jpg

Oh, no, not exactly by this title, but rather, one sentence from that particular article, as shown below…

extract.jpg

According to an inspector of the MSPCA, an owner can have only 2 dogs, else, he is considered as a dog breeder, thus has to possess a permit issued by that organisation.

Well, now look in your neighborhood…

How many of you have more than 2 dogs? do you have a dog breeder permit? lol!

Take a minute to think about that more deeper, if an owner can have only 2 dogs, then, if there are 5 persons in that family, living under 1 roof, that makes 5×2=10dogs, it that right?

wanted.jpg
btw, this is Pam, our 2nd dog at home…
Oh yes, then i think that u can have more than 2 dogs in your yard, you are safe from the law side :D

Wait wait wait, another thing…

Is there any law for other animals? Birds? Cats?

Thats so stupid!

Its high time that those laws are revised, as well as all of the institutions, which are completely outdated with their laws and principles established centuries ago… just like those famous “100ml of rainfall” which caused the death of ppl among our population.

btw, yesterday i bought an ipod shuffle 1GB… nice thing and so SMALL!

Perhaps some of you may have forgotten the following:

  • Nearly 3/4 of the island was in a complete blackout due to a fault in ONE of the electric infrastructure in early 2005!
  • ICTA blocking facebook access!
  • An unhappy suspended technician hacking the mauritius telecom system and the whole country deprived of internet!
  • Something more frequent, a minor accident on the motorway early in the morning and paralyzing the whole traffic for hours!

Do you remember more examples of this type???

About Me, Blogging, Fun, General, Leisure, News, Work-Boulot March 22nd, 2008

Wow…hehe, am a bit older, 23 yrs now :D

Nice surprises since yesterday, so i will start from there itself…

It all started by a lunch, prganised by my project team members

lunch1.jpg
lunch2.jpg lunch3.jpg

Then, i distributed sweety sweets to the whole DCDM 5th floor, got a nice card and pen as gifts…

I didnt expect that the 2nd part of the birthday celebration would be so …surprising!

We planned to meet in Shooters after work and at about 7pm, i joined Dhaneesha, Veronique, Richard, Rama and Nirvini…
After a drink, and of course “bane kouchou kouchou” between those present, who were organising something, which turned out to be nice :D

Suddenly, some (nice & hot) waitresses of shooters came before me with a nice and large cake, with a Happy Birthday song being played in the background, in the whole shooters!

Everyone there gazed at us, with the birthday cake, and its candles…
LOL, it was so ….nice of course, and embarassing for me, with everyone looking at me, just imagine! i dont have words to describe that…

Thnks Dou, Vero, Richard, Rama & Nirvini!

shooters1.jpg shooters2.jpg

After that small party, we ate at pizza hut, after making rounds and rounds in port louis, trying to find some food at about 10pm!

I reached home, nearly 0030hrs!


I woke up by the loads of happy birthday wishes being sent through sms at about 6am and immediately, i contacted the others to wake them up, koz i had organised something for my birthday since the last days…

A “Randonnee Dans Black River Gorges Natural Park!” Organised by the Underground Committee, under the code name “Underground In Nature Version 2.0″, the first one being, “Monte Le Pouce”

Participating members : Nisha, Vero, Vana, Steve, Chandra, Ravi, Michael, Sandra, Vissen, Fadil, Zainab and myself…


gorges1.jpg
Everyone was worried, because of the loads of rain during the night and we didnt know if we would be able to climb down from Petrin to the Natural Park as planned…
A van picked all of us, as scheduled and despite the HEAVY RAIN, we started to our journey down to the Nature Park Parking, at the bottom.

Oh yes, before i forget, thnks Fadil and Zainab for the surprise birthday cake in the middle of the forest, with each and everyone in the group singing happy birthday! that was original!!!

Lots of us fell down, full of mud, drenched 100% and everyone was worried if u would succeed in reaching the bottom, on time and without hurt!

But, as Usual, WE DID IT!

4 painful hours later, we reached the bottom, near the river where Sandra, Vissen and Myself swimmed in the water for some mins, well, at least, tried to swim!
The van picked us back and at 6pm, i reached home, where the birthday celebrations continued!

My next door cousins, Deepa & Neha had a nice time, crashing eggs on my head :D


eggs.jpg

Thats how i have been celebrating my birthday with my friends and family :DI would like to thank everyone who participated today, but also, the loads of friends who wished me happy birthday, either on mobile, sms, msn or facebook!

komik net ! moriciens bien originale…
see the lyrics below and download the song from here(2.4Mb)

*****************************************************************************

VERSION PIRATES - On S’attache

When Navin is ill

Il devient hostile

Il veut pas que la presse nous en informe

 

Quand son ti’ vente a mal

Un ti suppo oral

 

Il a toujours l’impression qu’elle  l’espionne

Il Confond constipations

Avec conspirations

 

REF

 

Et il fait tout ce qu’il faut pour

Qu’il l’attache et qu’il l’emprisonne

Avec sa police, qui nous impressionne- même pas

Qu’il l’attache et même qu’il l’assomme

Et rien n’empêche, a c’qu’il la bâillonne

Oh non…

 

D’un chef de file

Il a pas le profil

Mais sur sa santé l’aime pas qu’on le questionne

Y s’prend pour James Bond

En Aston Martin,

Faut dire qu’il la préfère à l’Aspirine

 

Comme chacha il hait la presse

On dit tel père tel fesse (Hé, tel fils !, Ah bon…)

 

REF

 

Et il fait tout ce qu’il faut pour

Qu’il l’attache et qu’il l’emprisonne

Sa cellule de Conne qui nous impressionne – même pas !

Il rabâche et il s’époumonne

Soigne so crise lasthme are coca ek rhum

Oh non…

 

PONT

 

On le sait bien

Les quotidiens , les hebdos, la radio, ca lui fait mal…

Tout a fait anormal

Et c’est ran

Que Calikan

Lui conseille des trucs pareils

A chaque Ercéfuryl

Mais t’es qui ? 

T’es pas normal..

 

REF

Il fait tâche dans son ti caleçone

I’ faut qu’il avale un ti’immodium, oh oui

Il attache et il emprisonne

Si la presse parle de sa cortisone

Oh non…

Il se fâche, faire dimane pardone

Envoy la police pou li pose questiones, il faut

Qu’on le lache car il nous couillone

Couma ene Andrews, bizin fair li fonne…

Oh oui
