I'm a usability specialist investigating analysis and design of multi-user interaction. I am currently helping to design a complex versioning/building/testing system.

I wrote a scifi novel, Duplicate. Yes, it's got a fair amount of programming in it...

comment Which UI treament of a large photo is more successful?
Those extra 10 pixels aren't adding much to the image--and people will zoom in anyway if they want more detail. Keep your edges clean and even and it'll feel more polished.

comment What aspects of HTML5 are replacing Flash?
To answer the question you asked before it got edited: Flash has historically been a bad security hole, and a processing power-hog. Try running a Flash game on, e.g., a slightly older Mac and performace sucks while the fans kick on max to try to cool the overloaded processor.

Creating jagged / zig-zag edges takes one click. Three, if you include cutting and pasting from and back into Photoshop.

Pixlr also doesn't have one-click borders. This matters when you make a lot of bordered screenshots the way I do. But hey, if you want to just do a bunch of extra steps, go for it...

Are you using the right brush? Use a brush that feathers to transparent.
