Article Purpose In this article you’ll find a discussion on the topic of blending Bitmap images into a single Image. Various possible methods can be employed in blending images. In this scenario image blending is achieved through means of bitwise operations, implemented on individual colour components Red, Green and Blue. Sample source code This article [...] read more »
Article Purpose Adjusting the contrast of an Image is a fairly common task in image processing. This article explores the steps involved in adjusting image contrast by directly manipulating image pixels. Sample source code This article is accompanied by a sample source code Visual Studio project which is available for download here. What is Image [...] read more »
Article Purpose The focus of this article is set on exploring the concept of Image Solarisation. In this article the tasks required to perform Image Solarisation are entirely implemented on pixel data level. Image manipulation is only implemented in the form of updating the individual Alpha, Red, Green and Blue colour components expressed by Image [...] read more »
Article Purpose The objective of this article is focussed on exploring the concept of applying colour shading to Bitmap images. The various Bitmap manipulation operations detailed in this article are all exclusively implemented by processing raw pixel data. No traditional GDI+ drawing operations are required in implementing Bitmap Colour Shading. Sample source code This article [...] read more »
Article Purpose The purpose of this article is to illustrate the tasks required when implementing a colour tint on a Bitmapimage. The various Bitmap manipulation operations detailed in this article are all exclusively implemented by processing raw pixel data. No traditional GDI+ drawing operations are required in achieving the objective of this article. Sample source [...] read more »
Article Purpose The purpose of this article is to explore and illustrate the concept of creating bi-tonal bitmap images. Colour images are manipulated in such a fashion to only express two colours. The colours expressed are configurable. A threshold value determines which of the two configured colours will be applied to a pixel. Sample source [...] read more »
Article Purpose This article explores the concept of manipulating the Colour Balance of a Bitmapimage. Colour Balance values are updated by directly manipulating a Bitmap’s underlying pixel data, no GDI drawing code required. Sample source code This article is accompanied by a sample source code Visual Studio project which is available for download here. Using [...] read more »
I’ve been experimenting with Colour Filter Image manipulation lately. As an example showcasing some of the possibilities I created several images based on the standard orange RSS feed icon. The source image used in generating all the filtered images on this page has been licensed under the GNU General Public License and can be downloaded [...] read more »
We write about a number of different kinds of solar gadgets here at TreeHugger, but some of my favorite pieces are ones that cover small-scale solar power units and how they can not only give light and electricity, but can actually change lives while doing so. Light and power are two things we take for [...] read more »
A friend asked me the other day from where I get my inspiration, to get into the kitchen and cook without complaining.I guess I have to thank my dear Mom who taught us the basic culinary skills.Whenever,she prepared food, we would with keen enthusiasm watch how she skillfullymade those delicious dishes. At that time as young as we were, we would, with pleasure, munch away the morsels shoved into our mouths by Mom ,to get our opinion on the taste. She took great pride in preparing new recipes and we were ... read more »
