Usability - A beginner’s guide
Sharing a presentation I’d done to introduce usability to fellow colleagues. I hope you find it informatics.
Color Contrast
In the never ending feud between designer & accessibility advocates. How many times have you experienced your design coming back, with comment of Color Contrast test failed. Not that designers are heartless biased people with no concern.
While there are lots of resources on the web to check color contrast. I’ve compiled a few, though I use Vischeck & Colour Contrast Analyser (Vision Australia) quite often.
• Colour Contrast Check
• Colour Contrast Visualiser
• Colour Contrast Analyser Firefox Extension
• Colour Contrast Analyser (Vision Australia)

Flickr Gallery
UPDATE 8 Jan 2008: Pviewer, this is a cool new site not only for your Flickr photos, but also for your photos hosted on Picasa Web. They have not given an option to embed the gallery. But I guess that won’t be far.
***********
Lately I got some mail from some visitors of my Photo Gallery, to help them set up their gallery. Though I’m not a hardcore techie, I’d used Dustin Senos version of Mark Sweeting’s FlickViewer which are built upon AirTight Interactive’s popular SimpleViewer. So it’s a long story and it uses some PHP and Flickr API key. And Thanks Dustin for listing my site in your page.
Now for the less techie who are scared to play around. There are some cool online stuff, which will do the job for you. And all you need to provide is your Flickr ID or number.
• PictoBrowser
• Flickr Gallery
• 123Flickr
• Flickr | FlashApis.com
Hope you find it useful and let me know if there’s more :)
