<h2>Anti-Aliasing and Sub-Pixel Hinting</h2>
<p>A tipografia na web começa a dar agora os primeiros passos com as chamadas web fonts. Tanto utilizando flash, javascript ou plataformas como <a title="Google Font Directory" href="http://code.google.com/webfonts" target="_blank">Google Font Directory</a>, <a title="Cufon" href="http://cufon.shoqolate.com/generate/" target="_blank">Cufón</a> ou <a title="TypeKit" href="http://typekit.com/" target="_blank">TypeKit</a>. De repente abriu-se um novo mundo para os utilizadores e criadores web no que diz respeito à liberdade tipográfica.</p>
<p>Mas apesar de termos agora á nossa disposição uma vasta colecção de webfonts criadas a pensar na web e nos monitores de hoje em dia, ainda encontramos vários problemas que não existem, por exemplo, em off-line.</p>
<p>A tipografia impressa desfruta de altas resoluções (DPI) com o qual consegue mostrar todos os detalhes de uma tipografia. Ao contrario, nos ecrãs de hoje em dia sofremos com os pixeis “fora-de-sitio” e curvas quebradas e pixeladas. Em grande parte devido a baixa resolução da maioria dos ecrãs de hoje em dia (PPI).</p>
<p>A adobe tem algumas ferramentas para tentar  resolver este assunto. Por exemplo, o Photoshop. O Photoshop usa uma técnica para  suavizar o texto que consiste em vários pixeis acrescentados em diversos tons de  cinzento mas não fusionando diferentes canais. Aqui entra em acção uma  técnica chamada Subpixel Rendering.</p>
<h2>O que é o Subpixel Rendering</h2>
<p>Cada pixel apresentado no monitor consiste em 3 cores diferentes: o vermelho, o verde e o azul (RGB). A luminosidade destes subpixels controlada independentemente dá-nos a ilusão de um só pixel colorido e sólido.</p>
<p>O Subpixel Rendering explora a individualidade de cada componente de uma só cor para a aumentar a percepção de resolução do monitor. Consiste no alinhamento perfeito de uma grelha de pixeis e dos seus valores de luminosidade e cor independentes.</p>
<h2>Subpixel-hinting no Photoshop</h2>
<p>Apesar de o photoshop ter uma forma para isto, esta não utiliza os diferentes canais para criar um anti-alias perfeito, mas sim diferentes tons de cinzentos.</p>
<p>Thomas Maier utiliza uma técnica que facilita a utilização do Subpixel-hinting no Photoshop. Basicamente é uma acção que junta todos os passos necessários para recriar esta “ilusão” de uma maior definição do monitor.</p>
<p>&#8211;&gt; Podem descarregar <strong><a href="http://files.droplr.com/files/15048392/CqFbQ.subpixelhinting.atn">aqui</a></strong><br />
<a href="http://files.droplr.com/files/15048392/CqFbQ.subpixelhinting.atn">a sua acção</a> para o photoshop, ou bem, <a href="http://thomasmaier.me/2010/03/yes-add-subpixel-hinting-to-your-photoshop-text-layers/">visitar</a> o seu site.</p>
<p>Se querem saber mais sobre este assunto, a <a href="http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/11/02/the-ails-of-typographic-anti-aliasing/">Smashing Magazine</a> tem um artigo muito completo sobre o Subpixel Rendering.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A apple parece voltar atrás no que tinha dito sobre o uso de otras ferramentas , para além do C++/ Objective C, para desenvolver aplicações para os seus terminais moveis.<br />
Steve Jobs justifica esta decisão com os conselhos dados por alguns dos engenheiros e programadores e também de certeza pela pressão mediatica que outras empresas concorrentes, como a Google, impõe no mercado de telefonia da Apple.<br />
Assim sendo, parece que os programadores que usam o actionscrit 3.0 como base podem dar-se por contentes. Vamos ver até que ponto as aplicações serão aprovadas na App Store. É esperar para ver.</p>
<p>Deixo-vos algo mais de informação: <a href="http://blog.theflashblog.com/?p=2325" target="_blank">http://blog.theflashblog.com/?p=2325</a></p>

Apple proíbe qualquer applicaçao que nao seja desenvolvida com o seu SDK.<br />
Todas as aplicaçoes que se façam através do novo exportador para iPhone do flash cs5 nao poderao ser distribuidas para este terminal da Apple. Neste grupo de aplicaçoes encontramos para além do Flash cs5, o Appcelerator ou Unity3d por exemplo.</p>
<p>Num exemplo de claro monopólio e claro desprezo pelo publico e programadores, a Apple demonstra mais uma vez que, ou se fazem á sua maneira ou nao se fazem.</p>
<p>Uma medida que nao se entende visto que todas as companhias estao a abrir para o opensource como forma de captar novos talentos e abranger novos mercados. Adobe é um exemplo disso.</p>
<p>Resumindo, uma verdadeira pena.<br />
P.S.: O que seria se a Adobe proibisse as suas aplicaçoes nos productos de Apple?</p>
<p>Deixem a vossa opiniao.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every website should have a call to action, a response you want users to complete. But how do you encourage users to act? How do you create an effective call to action.</p>
<h4>1. Lay the groundwork</h4>
<h4>2. Offer a little extra</h4>
<h4>3. Have a small number of distinct actions</h4>
<h4>4. Use active urgent language</h4>
<h4>5. Get the position right</h4>
<h4>6. Use white space</h4>
<h4>7. Use an alternative colour</h4>
<h4>8. Make it big</h4>
<h4>9. Have a <span class="st_tag internal_tag">call to action</span> on every pagee</h4>
<h4>10. Carry the call through</h4>
<p>Read the <a title="10 Techniques for an effective &quot;Call to Action&quot;" href="http://boagworld.com/design/10-techniques-for-an-effective-call-to-action" target="_blank">full article</a> at <a title="10 Techniques for an effective &quot;Call to Action&quot;" href="http://boagworld.com/design/10-techniques-for-an-effective-call-to-action">boagworld&#8217;s</a> web.</p>
<div id="_mcePaste" style="overflow:hidden;position:absolute;left:-10000px;top:100px;width:1px;height:1px;">
<p>It is not just the position of your <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with call to action" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/call-to-action">call to action</a> that matters. It is also the space around it. The more space around a <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with call to action" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/call-to-action">call to action</a> the more attention is drawn to it. Clutter up your <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with call to action" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/call-to-action">call to action</a> with surrounding <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with content" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/content">content</a> and it will be lost in the overall noise of the page.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.planhq.com/">PlanHQ</a> does an excellent job of focusing <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with users" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/users">users</a> of their calls to action by surrounding them with a lot of empty space.</p>
<div class="img" style="width:586px;"><img title="PlanHQ draws attention to their calls to action by surrounding them with empty space." src="http://boagworld.com/blogImages/PlanHQ-20090122-133828.jpg" alt="PlanHQ homepage" /></p>
<p class="caption">PlanHQ draws attention to their calls to action by surrounding them with empty space.</p>
</div>
<h3>7. Use an alternative <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with Colour" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/colour">colour</a></h3>
<p><a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with Colour" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/colour">Colour</a> is an effective way of drawing attention to elements, especially if the rest of the site has a fairly limited palette.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.culturedcode.com/things/">Things</a> (the GTD application for the mac) does this expertly on their website. While the rest of their site is predominately muted blues and grey, their calls to action are highlighted orange. This extreme contrast leaves you in no doubt as to the next thing you should do.</p>
<div class="img" style="width:586px;"><img title="The Things website draws attention to its calls to action by using a constrasting colour" src="http://boagworld.com/blogImages/Things-20090122-133853.jpg" alt="Things homepage" /></p>
<p class="caption">The Things website draws attention to its calls to action by using a constrasting colour</p>
</div>
<p>Of course never rely solely on <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with Colour" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/colour">colour</a> because many <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with users" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/users">users</a> are <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with Colour" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/colour">colour</a> blind and will not see the contrast.</p>
<h3>8. Make it big</h3>
<p>As web <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with designers" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/designers">designers</a> we often get annoyed with <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with clients" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/clients">clients</a> who ask us to make things bigger. It is certainly true that size isn’t everything. We have already established that position, <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with Colour" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/colour">colour</a> and white space are equally important.</p>
<p>However it cannot be denied that size does play a large part. The bigger your <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with call to action" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/call-to-action">call to action</a>, the more chance it will be noticed.</p>
<p>Mozilla have certainly taken this approach to heart on the <a href="http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/">firefox homepage</a> where their download link dominates the page.</p>
<div class="img" style="width:586px;"><img title="Mozilla uses size to draw attention to their call to action" src="http://boagworld.com/blogImages/Firefox-20090122-133919.jpg" alt="Firefox Homepage" /></p>
<p class="caption">Mozilla uses size to draw attention to their call to action</p>
</div>
<h3>9. Have a <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with call to action" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/call-to-action">call to action</a> on every page</h3>
<p>A <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with call to action" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/call-to-action">call to action</a> should not just be limited to the homepage. Every page of your site should have some form of <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with call to action" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/call-to-action">call to action</a> that leads the user on. If the user reaches a dead-end they will leave without responding to your call.</p>
<p>Your <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with call to action" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/call-to-action">call to action</a> does not need to be the same for each page. Instead you can use smaller actions that lead the user towards your ultimate goal.</p>
<p>37 Signals understand the importance of having a <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with call to action" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/call-to-action">call to action</a> on each page. At the foot of every page of their <a href="http://www.basecamphq.com/">Basecamp website</a> they clearly display links to their tour and signup pages.</p>
<div class="img" style="width:586px;"><img title="Basecamp has a call to action at the foot of every page" src="http://boagworld.com/blogImages/Basecamp-2-20090122-134017.jpg" alt="Basecamp" /></p>
<p class="caption">Basecamp has a call to action at the foot of every page</p>
</div>
<h3>10. Carry the call through</h3>
<p>Finally, consider what happens when a user does respond to your <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with call to action" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/call-to-action">call to action</a>. The rest of the process needs to be as carefully thought through as the <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with call to action" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/call-to-action">call to action</a> itself.</p>
<p>One particular word of warning – if you require <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with users" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/users">users</a> to provide personal data about themselves, resist the temptation to collect unnecessary information.</p>
<p><a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with Marketing" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/marketing">Marketing</a> people in particular like to build up demographic information. Although I can appreciate the value of this, it brings a danger <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with users" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/users">users</a> will drop out of the process.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wordpress.com/">WordPress.com</a> is an excellent example of how to minimise the amount of data collected. They only ask for the minimal information required to setup a <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with Blog" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/blog">blog</a>.</p>
<div class="img" style="width:586px;"><img title="Wordpress miminise the amount of information required to setup a blog." src="http://boagworld.com/blogImages/WordPress-20090122-132022.jpg" alt="WordPress signup process" /></p>
<p class="caption">WordPress miminise the amount of information required to setup a blog.</p>
</div>
<h3>Conclusions</h3>
<p>An effective <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with call to action" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/call-to-action">call to action</a> is the linchpin of a successful site and involves drawing together best practice in <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with Usability" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/usability">usability</a>, creative visual <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with Design" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/design">design</a> and powerful <a class="st_tag internal_tag" title="Posts tagged with copy" rel="tag" href="http://boagworld.com/tag/copy">copy</a> writing.</p>
<p>However, if it is done right it can generate real measurable return on investment and in the current economic climate that is what we all want.</p>
<p>Many thanks to <a href="http://www.leemunroe.com/web-design-trends-call-to-action-signup-download-buttons/">Lee Munroe</a> who found most of the examples I have used in this post.</p>
