Unless you’re from France, you may not yet have heard about Thelia, an e-commerce system that is getting some international attention, due in no small part to the buzzwords thrown around in the media material released for the launch of the beta version of Thelia 2 in late September.

The full version won’t be launched until the end of this year, but when an e-commerce system is described in terms of open source, Symfony, HTML5, Bootstrap, Propel, PHPUnit, Travis, Smarty and semantic microdata, it warrants some attention.

Przygotowanie klienta Bitcoind do obsługi w PHP
Na początku musimy posiadać aktualną wersję Bitcoind, zsynchronizowaną i działającą. Polecam aktualną wersję z git-a, gdyż ma wiele usprawnień związanych z obciążeniem IO (dostępu do dysków). W konfiguracji Bitcoind musimy podać dane dostępowe, poprzez RPC (zdalne wywołanie) oraz zwiększyć liczbę keypoool (ilość początkowych adesów),  aby nie mieć problemów z dodawaniem nowych adresów.

Learning photography isn’t a journey you should have to take alone. Below we’ve gathered some of our best photography tips, tricks and tutorials to help you learn photography fundamentals in all of the popular genres.

Shooting raw format photos means fewer pictures on your card and more time spent editing your images. So why do nearly all pros do it? Below find answers to 8 common questions every beginner has about shooting raw format.

In our latest Shoot Like A Pro series we take an in-depth look at some of the most common problems that plague new photographers and explain some simple methods and jargon-free beginner photography tips for avoiding them.  This week we de-mystify your DSLR and look at some of the beginner photography mistakes with camera settings.

The moon is something so familiar to us, and yet so strange that it’s mesmerizing. It’s at once commonplace and extraordinary. As photographers, we are drawn to it in an attempt to convey the intrigue we feel when we look at it.

Laravel 4 is a huge step forward for the PHP community. It’s beautifully written, full of features and the community is presently exploding. We’re going to use it to create a socket based, real time chat application.

Nothing can bring your landscape photography to life more than a sharp, stunning water reflection. In this tutorial we explain how to photograph a reflection and suggest several key techniques and tips for finding suitable subjects.

Lately, there has been a lot of experimentation with very short programs that synthesize something that sounds like music. I now want to share some information and thoughts about these experiments.

First, some background. On 2011-09-26, I released the following video on Youtube, presenting seven programs and their musical output:

Daytime long exposure photography is the landscape cliche that just won’t quit. Love them or loathe them, long-exposure landscape shots are here to stay, and judging by the amount of slow-motion seascapes in particular that are emailed to us each week, it’s clear that many of you love creating them as much as we do.

OAuth can be anything you want it to be, the standards are lax and give you plenty of room for getting the right implementation for your system. However you proceed, though, you'll need to check an access token on every request - and in a Slim application, a middeware can help enormously since it hooks in to every request by design. I've recently implemented this and thought I would share.

In our latest Shoot Like A Pro series we take an in-depth look at some of the most common problems that plague new photographers and explain some simple methods and jargon-free beginner photography tips for avoiding them. This week we turn our attention to focusing and maintaining sharp images.

Authentication is required for virtually any type of web application. In this tutorial, I’d like to show you how you can go about creating a small authentication application using Laravel 4. We’ll start from the very beginning by creating our Laravel app using composer, creating the database, loading in the Twitter Bootstrap, creating a main layout, registering users, logging in and out, and protecting routes using filters. We’ve got a lot of code to cover, so let’s get started!

You may have spotted the lightbulb, cloud, electricity and woodshed symbols on your camera’s screen or menus. You may have also ignored them as being yet another degree of complexity that you don’t need to know about.

Alternatively, you may have seen people on the Internet earnestly discussing colour temperature and swearing by all sorts of essential products that will guarantee perfect results, if you re-mortgage your house this one last time. And ignored it as another expense that you can probably do without.

Well that thing you’re ignoring is one of the most powerful ways of making your photos convey the scene you wanted to capture: white balance.

Linux Apache MySQL PHP + Bitcoin tutorial.
For this introduction we assume that you have GNU/Linux server with Apache and PHP and that you wish to interact with the Bitcoin network from a web application. We assume some knowledge of Bitcoin and experience in PHP.
While this is written for PHP, the same principles apply for other languages. See the associated API reference pages for info on other languages.
The easiest way to get started is to run Bitcoin in daemon mode with which PHP communicates via local HTTP requests. A library called JSON-RPC is used to call the various functions of bitcoind, which will respond back with a JSON object.

What is Symfony2 Framework?

In Part 1, I have shown you how to set up Symfony 2 and link up the database. We also covered some fundamental concepts of the framework. In this part, we will link things up by creating routes, controllers, entities/repositories, and views to get the site up and running.

Osobiście nie przepadam za wszelkiej maści edytorami wizualnymi (WYSIWYG). Uważam, że więcej z nimi problemów niż korzyści. No ale wiadomo, klienta zdanie web developera za bardzo nie interesuje i chce po prostu dodawać treść tak samo łatwo jak w Wordzie. Co w takiej sytuacji zrobić?

W ostatnim czasie pozytywnie zaskoczył mnie TinyMCE 4. Można go praktycznie w dowolny sposób dostosować – od wyboru funkcji na pasku narzędzi po stworzenie styli dostosowanych do potrzeb klienta. Dodatkowo możemy wewnątrz edytora dostosować CSS tak, by treść wyglądała praktycznie tak jak na docelowej podstronie. Inną bardzo przydatną rzeczą jest możliwość usunięcia wszelkich „śmieci” z tekstu wklejanego prosto z edytora tekstu.

In our latest Shoot Like A Pro series we take an in-depth look at some of the most common problems that plague new photographers and explain some simple methods and jargon-free beginner photography tips for avoiding them.

Hello

I have been busy trying to make a small website with a simple cms. It uses the twig for the layout.

I wanted the cms to have a login so after searching here and there, and after a bit off trial and error I came to a working system.
Although it works, I am not really sure if its a good approach or if there are any thins that can be better. Especially on the authenticate matter. Also I wonder if the authenticate function is necessary on the $app->put and $app->put routes.

Any thoughts on this code is appreciated.

Venturing into the woods to capture the first light streaming through the canopy is one of the special moments in photography. There’s a true feeling of satisfaction in shooting forest photography, particularly on bright autumn mornings, but it also presents its share of challenges – namely, how to get a good exposure. In this tutorial we explain how to set up your camera to shoot high-contrast photography, and then edit your bracketed exposures on the computer.

The following notes provide details on the conversion of several repositories from subversion to git making use of two tools to help with the process:

gitolite which provides a framework to help managing a central git repository. From https://github.com/sitaramc/gitolite
svn2git to convert existing repositories from subversion to git. From: https://github.com/nirvdrum/svn2git
This is the second time I performed such conversions and it was a lot easier the second time around due to greater familiarity with git and the tools being used to perform the conversion. These notes should make it even easier the next time I need to do this.

If you have not used BootStrap so far, or more than that – have not heard about it – I would recommend you take a closer look to this framework. The fact is that this is really a great choice for those who appreciate the convenience and speed of website development. Today I will tell you about how to create a responsive template using BootStrap 3, which will include elements such as: two navigational menus, slider, promo block, a variety of content blocks, various form elements and footer. One more important moment – in this template, we do not use images, it means that our result is focused on speed.

Laravel 4 is a huge step forward for the PHP community. It’s beautifully written, full of features and the community is presently exploding. Today we’re going to explore how to build multisite applications with it.

Any system admin working in a service provider network would certainly agree that Cacti is one of the most widely used tools in network management solutions. It is open source, has built in user authentications and user permission features, shipped with frequently used graph templates like bandwidth, 95th percentile, hard disk usage, CPU usage, load average, RAM statistics and many more. Cacti also supports 3rd party templates and plugins. If those are not enough, one can write and use one’s own templates, and that is the beauty of open source software.

Those with several years development expertise will realize it’s a regular expression. But even the most astute guru will take a few moments to determine that it checks the validity of an email address. Only a superior subset of that group will comprehend that it’s fairly superficial and won’t check all possibilities.

Regular expressions are extremely powerful search patterns which can be used for string matching and replacement. They’re supported in the majority of languages including JavaScript, PHP, Perl, Java, C#, Python and Ruby.

Individual rules are normally straight-forward, e.g. [a-z] matches a single lowercase character and c.t matches a three letter string starting with ‘c’ and ending with ‘t’ — such as ‘cat’. However, when rules are combined, an indecipherable string of seemingly random codes starts to appear. The one above is relatively simple compared to many you’ll find in the wild.

Creating your own regular expressions is difficult enough and many of us resort to using the force. But it’s easy compared to parsing someone else’s code — which is normally written by someone who has an irrational aversion to comments!

Fortunately, Jeff Avallone has created a solution to your regex woes. RegExper transforms meaningless JavaScript-based expressions into a graphical representation:

When I first started in journalism a few lifetimes and two careers ago, a writer had three things to worry about: writing a solid story, getting it in on time, and keeping your editor happy. That was basically it. Today, that list of concerns has grown to include things like keywords, meta tags, headings, titles, internal links, externals links, and– of course– images. It’s almost enough to make someone who typed NBC news copy in the early 80s on a manual typewriter shake his head and abandon all hope of reaching any kind of audience.

Overwhelmed with the response of last two articles of “Lesser Known Linux Article” series namely.

Slim is a lightweight framework that packs a lot of punch for its tiny footprint. It has an incredible routing system, and offers a solid base to work from without getting in your way. Let me show you!
But that’s not to say that Slim doesn’t has some issues; it’s one-file setup becomes cluttered as your application grows. In this article, we’ll review how to structure a Slim application to not only sustain, but improve its functionality and keep things neat and systematic.

So, if you are considering for minor and great things to make your website appear overwhelming, you should make use of the Bootstrap tools and generators. Today, we are presenting some of the best bootstrap tools and generators for web developers. Majority of these listed tools are designed based upon the expert’s requirements.

Digital goods are an increasingly valuable commodity. Whether you're a designer selling templates or font files, a developer charging for packages of code or a musician selling MP3s, selling digital goods online is often far easier than physical goods – with much lower production costs and no delivery charges.

In this article I'll show how you can implement a simple store selling digital goods using PHP along with Stripe, a payment provider who aims to make it easier than ever to take online payments since you don't need to set up special merchant accounts or deal with complex payment gateways.

Tilt-shift photography is commonly misconstrued solely as producing miniature effects in your images. But tilt-shift photography is much more than producing toy towns. In this tutorial we show you six vastly different effects you can produce with the same tilt-shift lens.

One of the biggest talking points among SEO consultants has to be Google’s constant barrage of animal updates. Among these, its Penguin updates have arguably had the most impact on the industry. Since it first waddled into view in April 2012, the Penguin updates have completely changed the SEO landscape. It has made link-building, so important to SEO, more complex.

At Moz, we strive to include social media metadata in all new pieces of content that we publish. This allows us to optimize for sharing Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and Pinerest by defining exactly how titles, descriptions, images and more appear in social streams.

Think of it as conversion rate optimization for social exposure.
