Images that Create Empathy

An important function of Images is to Create Empathy in the viewer, meaning an emotion, a feeling, something that resonates and as such carries our message across and – as a consequence – triggers a reaction.

In Advertising, this reaction is carefully calculated and anticipated.

Images that Create Empathy

Images that Talk blur the lines between us and ‘the other’ – in other words the sender (say the artist) and the receiver (the audience) and they are always images that Create Empathy – Empathy translating basically into feeling and our capability to underestand and share someone else’s emotions.

Heinz Kohut put it like this: “Empathy is the capacity to think and feel oneself into the inner life of another person.”

What counts for us as Web Graphic Designers when it comes to Websites and Blogs is that our Artwork reflects what we want to express at a given moment, for a specific reason… which is mostly articulated in text format. As such Web graphics amd Images are much more than a decorative element of a website; they have a very clear goal: to captivate peoples’ attention and to mobilize a desired reaction.

Google has recognized the increasing importance of Images and gives us many ways to tag them and give our posts an additional boost to reach top level rankings.

Basic CSS3 to Customize your WordPress Theme

With the increasing browser compatibility of CSS3, additional customization of websites is in the reach of most anyone (Even a Monkey can do it, according to Nikos Advertizopoulos …). Tonight we will start with a series of calls to become familiar with the possibilities arising from the use of CSS3 on WordPress to improve typography and font styles.

You may follow the progress of the work at the Ycademy Demo Site which features the Semiomantics XO Theme.

Looking forward to seeing you on YorgoLive tonight.

Transparent WordPress Custom Theme

Playing with the XO Theme Version 3.3.x from Semiomantics and CSS3, I notice how easy it is for most anyone to customize the XO Theme by adding transparencies and other CSS3 elements. Here below you find some drafts. You may visit the test site from : http://globalthebrand.com.

On the test site we use the Semiomantics Widgets and Theme Handler plug-in as well as a modified Supersized plug-in; the latter needs some more work to make it more responsive. Also we use TubePress which behaves fine also on mobile.

The Theme is Semiomantics XO with 3 custom child-themes; any theme can be associated with any page, post, category, tag or sidebar.

Portraits of Africa 2012 on Google

Time again to monitor and check the performance of our new WP based Semiomantics XO 2012 Script on search engines.

Here’s a screenshot of yesterday’s post “Portraits of Africa 2012″ on Google – have a look! Positions 1, 2, 3 and 6 ahead of 10,800,000 search returns – YEBO GOGO!

Portraits of Africa 2012 on Google

When looking up “Portraits of Africa 2012″ on Google, I also checked how the images in my article were ranked – here’s the detail of the screenshot showing the Image of a “Young African Girl” on position one, followed by the Image of a “Young African Boy” on position 4… and a small ad I created ages ago peeking at us on position 2. All of them ahead of our South African presidents… just too funny! The young generation is on the move!

Portrait of Africa Images

It becomes even more intrigueing when we look up “Portrait of Africa Images” on Google and find these young faces of Africa featuring amongst some really classy photography! And again… the random positioning is just too weird… for those who read this and understand what I mean! Welcome to the future :)

Fact is, that with the increasing importance of images and media on the Internet – and with this for our website development – … and people preferring to look at something for quick grasping of the contents rather than reading long time-consuming – and even worse: thought-provoking -  texts… that the correct tagging and classification of photos and images becomes more important. Here as with any post what counts is to be found on Google – Google Top 10 that is. Noone else looks further…

Congratulations to our young friends who’ve made it to the top ranks and find themselves in interesting and attractive company! There will be more….

New Menu for Kalahari Restaurant and Theatre

Optimization Website

Website Optimization is the most important – yet almost invisible – part in professional Web Design and Website Development.

If done correctly, it ensures that our websites and blogs perform well on search engines like Google. However, as things are constantly changing, like for instance Google’s algorhythm – there are no guarantees that what worked yesterday will bring the same results as today. Not at all! We better be flexible and accept that we have to bend to a temperamental online scenario; it won’t happen the other way around. This demands from us to monitor, observe and be aware of how our articles appear once posted – just as we watch how our racing horses and jockeys perform at a derby – and draw the necessary conclusions for possible changes from there.

Google Top 10 for biancagubalke.com on Semiomantics

This morning, we wrote an article under the headline “Online Communications Market Research Analysis” – and as at Web Design Consulting we focus heavily on ‘Optimization Website’ based on our high performing Semiomantics Scripts as well as Captivating Web Graphics by Bianca Gubalke for the visually attractive aspect, let’s look at our result in Google Top 10 ranking terms after just a short hour!

As you see on the screenshot above, we grabbed position 2 on 14 million search returns within that short period – which is totally amazing!

Portraits of Africa 2012 – untouched… straight from my simple NIKON Coolpix P90 … just the magic of a Young African Girl.

Photoshop Tutorials

Being new to Photoshop, but not entirely new to image editing, I have enjoyed following Biancas Photoshop tutorials and tips.

Photoshop Tutorials at Ycademy

Bianca is providing some superb Photoshop trainings at the Ycademy training sessions as well as tutorials on her blog that you can follow step by step.

Photoshop training ~ How to create rounded corners

Having attended the live, learning online  training session provided by Bianca on ‘how to create rounded corners’ I learnt so much and much more than just that. Photoshop has so many of these little features that one can use to adjust any image and create a completely new effect. It’s fun trying out the features and  becoming accustomed to how they work, and the effect  that can be achieved.

Here is the result from the training session.

I just love Black & White Photography and how it adds depth to a picture, especially portraits and expressive faces.

“Portraits of Africa” are shot on a simple NIKON Coolpix P90 with a minimum of post-editing, ideally nothing at all.

Elegance in Web Design

Elegance in Web Design – and Graphic Design in particular – is another important attribute we really want to pay attention to, meaning to not only consider elegance as a sort of decoration but rather integrate it as an essential part of our online communication. We need websites and blogs that ‘talk’ , that ‘attract’ and ‘captivate’ – especially when it comes to images, ads and web graphics. So let’s look into how we can achieve exactly this.

Living that close to Nature and considering it my most graceful teacher, I am often stunned by the aesthetic beauty of apparently simple things. Actually, I have come to the conclusion that Elegance has a lot to do with Balance and Harmony.

I thought of this today when watching these beautiful, extremely long-tailed sunbirds – considering their tiny size – hovering in perfect balance over sumptuous red flowering gums in my garden – high up in the wind! What a perfect example – and luckily I had my Coolpix P90 for some great digital photos. These pictures inspired me to write an article on “Elegance” which I had foreseen for my Web Design Consulting Publication.

Elegance in Web Design

When thinking of Elegance in Web Design, we want to first define what it actually means – so we get a clear understanding.

Wiki describes it as “… the attribute of being unusually effective and simple. It is frequently used as a standard of tastefulness, particularly in the areas of visual design and decoration. Elegant things exhibit refined grace and dignified propriety.

Some westerners associate elegance with simplicity and consistency of design, focusing on the main or basic features of an object, its dignified gracefulness, or restrained beauty of style.

Others understand the word in an opulent light as in tasteful richness of design or ornamentation “the sumptuous elegance of the furnishings.”

The proof of a mathematical theorem is considered to have mathematical elegance if it is surprisingly simple yet effective and constructive; similarly, a computer program or algorithm is elegant if it uses a small amount of intuitive code to great effect^.

In engineering, a solution may be considered elegant if it uses a non-obvious method to produce a solution which is highly effective and simple. An elegant solution may solve multiple problems at once, especially problems not thought to be inter-related.

In chemistry, chemists always look for elegance in formulations as well as effectiveness in dosage form design.

Visual stimuli are frequently considered elegant if a small number of colors and stimuli are used, emphasizing the remainder.”

Now here we have some significant keywords pertaining to Elegance that all point us into a clearly defined direction when approaching our Web Design or Graphic Design:

• Simplicity
• Effectiveness
• Tastefulness
• Grace
• Restrained beauty of style.

And coming back to our little feathery friend – it’s all there… and this is where Nature surprises and astonishes us all the time, it’s what makes it serene and what resonates with us as deep inside where we know that all is ONE.

If we manage to express these feelings with our Artwork, we touch, we communicate and we captivate; then our goal as graphic designers is attained.

Learn Adobe Photoshop at Weekly Ycademy Trainings

If you wish to learn Adobe Photoshop join our weekly Ycademy Trainings where we teach basic principles and techniques and where we also show you how to integrate important elements into your Web Design – like Elegance.

Ycademy Trainings are hands-on with step-by-step guidance to allow all participants to advance and produce web graphics they can be proud of. The results after just a few sessions were astonishing! There’s nothing like getting a grip on something that seemed so far away – if not impossible – and then producing one’s “own stuff”! Yes! You can!

The next Ycademy Training is on Thursday at 7 pm London time.

High Performance Publishing

High Performance Publishing – if combined with a search engine optimized Script like Semiomantics XO for example – brings us the results we expect and need… sooner or later depending how heavily the targeted keywords are being fought for. It’s a matter of learning, understanding and applying smart Editing and Website Publishing principles and then applying them correctly within a continuous stream of original content in form of articles, posts, images and even videos.

Oh yes, it’s work … and those who have been going the extra mile over the past years do know what I mean!

High Performance Publishing

High Performance Publishing is a ‘must’ for any website or blog owner who needs to become visible on the top of Google to get Traffic – meaning visitors to his website, meaning potential customers and… sales.

When I wrote and published my last Web Graphics Tutorial with the title: “How to combine Color and Black and White in an Image” I did not have buyers in mind, but to provide our Semiomantics addicts with a guide to become yet a little bit better, yet a little bit more independent and confident in designing their Blogs and giving them an extra edge.

However, having just set up a Semiomantics WP Best eShop this past weekend – by far not finished though – this like any new blog needs regular ‘fuel’ in form of targeted posts.

So having just seen the astonishing high performance publishing result of  “How to combine Color and Black and White in an Image” with 2 entries already on Google Top 10, this is an excellent opportunity to provide my readers with a solid proof of our results in form of a screenshot showcasing our performance :

High Performance with Semiomantics – Google Top 10 on 13,4 million

Semiomantics Consultants Sell Results

High performance Publishing is part of what our regular participants learn at Ycademy Business Building Seminars – in other words a knowledge and skill that is acquired and refined over time, in regular weekly Ycademy Workshops and in individual support and coaching sessions and that then can be sold as a Service with utmost confidence.

Semiomantics Consultants sell Results! They have applied their knowledge and skills over years through their own high performance publishing that puts them ahead of most competitors in terms of Google Top 10 rankings – and this is the result they sell. There’s a lot implied and there may be certain individuals who might want to know more and should simply join the Semiomantics and Ycademy Workshops, but most people who buy a high powered Ferrari are not interested in how the clutch is fabricated and how the machine is tuned: all they want is a top result, be first, be best, be seen: at the top… and in Internet terms that means Google.

If you can beat 13,4 million competitiors with a key phrase like the one above within such a short period of time – just a few hours, perhaps 3, perhaps less… I didn’t look… I know… we are used to this and it’s normal – well, if that’s a non-disputable fact, IMAGINE what we at Web Design Consulting could do for YOU!

How to Combine Color and Black and White in an Image

I’ve always had a faible for Black and White Photography, and in my experimental filmwork – especially for the advertising industry in Europe – I then integrated an item in color. It is a good way to focus the viewers’ attention exactly where we want to have it.

However, this was very complex and costly in the old days.

Today, with the incredible advancement of modern technology and especially Graphic software, programs and tools like Adobe Photoshop CS4 – it has become so easy… if you know what you do!

In this Web Graphics Tutorial I will show you, step-by-step, how to combine Color and Black and White in an Image – one image. I will do this using the same picture with the honey bee on a flowering gum that served to introduce you to one of several ways of creating rounded corners – which we need for our brand-new Semiomantics eSHOP. Yeah… I better get my act together and create them for myself too… it will happen :)

How to Combine Color and Black and White in an Image

Here’s how to combine Color and Black and White in an Image using Adobe Photoshop CS4 – just follow the steps, ideally with a picture that has a clearly defined focus – like perhaps your face – and a background that’s not just plain but has some Laura Ashley movement in it… meaning some sort of floral or other design … not just a simple plain background:

1.

Open your Photoshop and pull in your designated jpg for instance.

You see it on the LAYERS menu to the right, a nice colorful picture. If you don’t see that menu, open it from Windows at the top. Fine!

2.

At the top under IMAGES > ADJUSTMENTS open the drop-down menu and click on DESATURATE.

As a result, you get a black and white picture – all colors are gone now. Check it on your Layers menu – it’s the same. As you see on my example, even the legend at the bottom is in black now.

3.

Open your HISTORY menu now – also to the right – and you see your original in color and, underneath, the ‘desaturate’ command you just implemented. Fine!

4.

On the bottom of the History menu you see a SNAPSHOT button – click it to take a snapshot of the current black & white image. You see it showing immediately underneath your original in color.

5.

What we want to do now is restore the color in the bee… (… or your face…) and as I did in a second stage, in the main flower – so the background basically remains monochrome.

Right – let’s go!

First, make sure the original picture on top of the History menu shows the History ICON to the left – it means we will work on the colors.

Alternatively, if we want to say restore some of the black and white background as we messed it up, then we need to tick the Snapshot picture… so the idea is to move between these two to get the desired result.

Don’t stress about it if it’s not yet clear to you, just follow the steps and you will see it all falls into place!

6.

We will now use the HISTORY BRUSH on the left tool menu and – with the mouse tip or, better, a graphic pen – paint on the picture.

If you followed the above advice, you will see that the moment your pen tip touches your image, it restores the original color of the picture! Just do it and observe how this works… there’s no other way of learning this.

If you color in too much – say you create some color spots on the background that you want to keep grey, then go back to the History Menu on the right side of your screen and tick the Snapshot. Now get to work again and you see that you can take away color this way.

So you understand that you can add of the original color or eliminate it as you wish.

For the delicate areas use the zoom at the top or on the navigator to increase the size so you can work more precisely.

You can also change the diameter of the History Brush on the little dropdown menu at the top depending on the size of the area you are working on – and you can adapt the opacity as well if you do some refined work in transitional areas, say between hair and the background – you see it on the light fluff on the back of the honey bee. Of course, one can spend lots of time refining this – and in real Artwork etc you would. Here my main purpose is to demonstrate how it works and to get a pleasing result myself.

7.

Once you have colored an item while leaving the monochrome background untouched and you are satisfied with your result, SAVE the image for the web and upload to your server.

of course, nothing stops you from going to Layer > Duplicate Layer… and play with filters and adjustments now – that’s how I achieved the blue background. Have Fun!

Adobe Photoshop CS4 at YCADEMY Workshops

We will look into this as well as yesterday’s ’rounded corner’ exercise and also how smart Plugins can make our life much easier … at today’s Ycademy Workshop starting at 7 pm London time in our YCADEMY Conference Room.
