Discovering Photoshop – Action Scripts

Discovering Photoshop – Action Scripts

There is so much more to Photoshop than first meets the eye. I am sure that once you start to understand some basic functions you will soon discover the Photoshop action scripts. 

Photoshop Action Scripts

The Photoshop Action Scripts take the work out of  creating more complex designs. The action script once activated automatically performs the detailed tasks that it would take to create the final result. There are many of these action scripts to be found online. The example I have chosen is the ‘photobox’ which you can download from here and then follow the installation proceedure.

How to use Photoshop Action Photobox

As you see from the image above this action script creates a very cool effect. Click on the image above to see it full size.

Once you have installed your script open your Photoshop and then the image that you wish to use. Go to WINDOW on the toolbar and select Actions. In the actions menu select ‘photobox’. When the dialogue opens select photobox then click on the arrow button below to play. Just sit and watch as the script takes over and performs the actions to create the box image.You may then need to resize the final product to the desired size you require. Cool eh?

It took me a few tries to get the image centered on the cube, but this comes with a bit of practice. Practice makes perfect they say.

Keywords on Google Verses Twitter

Keywords on Google Verses Twitter

I realized that there is a fundamental difference between keyword strategy on Google as opposed to Twitter.

Whereas on Google you want to position yourself to be found by the potential reader when he “types in” that which he is “looking for”, on Twitter the person enters in a description about himself, how he views himself.

Take, for example, if you are marketing cheap advertising. In Google you would position yourself on the keyword cheap advertising in order to be found by the person who goes and looks for cheap advertising. But in Twitter your potential customers are not going to be found on the keyword cheap advertising. Rather the Twitter search, which is basically a search for people, is how they describe themselves. Someone looking for cheap advertising is not going to call himself Cheap Advertising. You have to define your target market and go after them. Maybe Home Business or Internet Marketing.

Get the idea?

Automated Viral Online Advertising with Twy2

Twy2, the new Social Media Marketing Tool has been tested with success at last night’s Ycademy Call. The installation is easy and the script works smoothly. This is unique Automated Viral Online Advertising!

As you will see form our Twitter Digest, there is no fundamental difference between online marketing targeting Google Top 10 and Social Network or Media Marketing. In the end of the day, the name of the game is: Targeting, delivering value, building contact hooks under your control (mailing lists, YORGOO) and conversion on a site outside the social network, again under your or your merchants control.

Twy2 is a simple tool which will add to all your blurbs online a viral touch, using twitter and ultimately Facebook in as much as your two accounts are hooked together. You can take it further to other networks, your imagination is the limit.

Social Network Communication

By Bianca Gubalke

Communication through Social Networks

Why Social Networks?

As we pointed out in yesterday’s article, Social Networks are rapidly developing into the most profitable pool to fish from if it comes to promoting one’s product and/or service. In fact, it IS the biggest pond … after Google.

Socializing on Social Networks

However… people that flock to Social Networks – genre Twitter – don’t want to be bothered with ads… they want to ’socialize’, chat, talk, exchange thoughts, ideas and the odd virtual hug. While we have to accept the fact that nothing – strictly nothing – on the Internet is private anymore… and if you’re a privacy paranoiac stay away from the net alltogether OR simply never write or post anything online that you don’t want to see exposed, especially not your most intimate thoughts (… I’m thinking of those who naively confy their private thoughts and feelings to an online “Diary” with the belief that noone would ever see it… we’ve seen tragedies happening and I address parents here to warn and guide their budding teenagers as this can have terrific future effects as we’ve already seen… ) … So while we have to live with that reality, there’s lots of space to meet, exchange ideas and recipes, show, comment, discuss and really have fun. Pure Socializing Fun – no hidden agendas, no being beaten by make money online opportunities, none of that ’spam’ we all hate but have to live with… just as we have to accept the blinding and screaming way traditional advertising turns our cities into their own personal playground – with our consent or without it. It’s just a fact of life. Accept it… or live in the sticks as I do :)

Social Networking like Barack Obama

So the message is clear: if we are Social Networkers we want to socialize and not be sold to – at least not with blunt marketing and advertising jargon. Social Networking is Social Communication… and on the net it’s all about building your Name, Reputation, Authority… meaning a person to be trusted, a person to be followed, a person that is an opinion leader. If you have achieved that position, if you can be trusted as while you’re human and can make errors, you don’t have hidden agendas but you earn your income with some sort of product or service as anyone else in life does, then people who follow you – say on the Social Networking platform Twitter – will happily look into your offer and/or service… for the simple reason that they need it, they know you and you can be found where they are looking. They will be looking on Google, in the Social Network Keyword Searches… and then it’s a matter of applying the “Obama-before-President-style” and lead them to your dedicated Blog, your Networking and Communication Tools – nothing beats talking person to person  – and Salespage. The important point is that People on Social Networks find you when THEY want to find you.

Social Network Publishing

As explained in yesterday’s post HERE, we have to write, edit and publish in a Google as well as Social Network efficient way. For extraordinary results this means a focused mind with skillful Writing, Editing and Publishing… and most importantly to do so on an appropriate vehicle – in my case a Semiomantics Script by Internet GRizzard Yorgo Nestoridis. Seeing is believing – so let’s take my original article on http://biancagubalke.com yesterday (27 July 2009) as an example:

Social Network Communication on Google Number One

"Social Network Communication" on Google Number One

"Social Network Communication" on Google Number One

WOW! I must admit I fell off my chair myself… as this result was achieved within less than 8 hours! This is a Google Number One position on a traffic rich keyword – “Social Network Communication” with 107 Million Search Returns!!!And this was by far not the only result as we researched in the YORGOO Daily Training Call yesterday evening. If you ask me how I did this…?

Social Networking Trainings with YCADEMY

I answered it above, fully and honestly… And to this add the Knowledge and Skills acquired in the monthly YCADEMY Online Business Building Seminars available to all within the acclaimed yet highly lowkey YORGOO Business Network.

Social Network Communication on Twitter

Is this for YOU? Can YOU do this? I think Yes, YOU CAN! Like you and millions of others, I am just a very normal person working online to establish myself in my dedicated niche… firstly as it’s my Passion and secondly as I have to feed the family. As I work in a very focused way and with our huge YORGOO Team my Time Plan did not allow additional space for “Socializing”, I did not even have a Twitter account… can you believe it?

Click HERE and Follow me on Twitter !

However. . . Following the YCADEMY Seminar, I just set it up as I realize I have to build a presence where the people are – and that’s on Social Networks like Twitter… so I just started Twittering… even me :) Want to follow me? That would be great… TWEET HERE ! . . .

Social Network Publishing 2.0 – Seminar

 Social Network Publishing Seminar

The “Make Money with Twitter” Model lined out in Part 1 and Part 2 has been implemented this week-end by the webmasters participating at the Ycademy Online Seminar dealing with Social Network Publishing and Marketing.

New Generation Websites

The new site scripts, NewsCast by Semiomantics have replaced the original YORGOO Press scripts. The new publishing framework is faster, more image focused and more interactive. The new sites have the same publishing power as all Semiomantics scripts with a Google Top 10 performance second to none.

Seminar participants have quickly adapted to the new environment and customized their sites with ease. Have a look at the professional look of some of the sites resulting from the workshops at the seminar:

Congratulations to all participants, this was not an easy one!

Social Network Publishing 2.0

The second big issue of the seminar was to implement streamlined Social Network Publishing and to link the NewsCast site to Twitter and subsequently to other social networks.

What was achieved was complete interactivity between the sites and Twitter as well as automated in- and outflow of communication streams, following the YORGOO Publishing Model. Contrary to other Models, Semiomantics Script users remain in total control of their communication flow and do not entrust third party aggregators with the management of their destiny.

Customizing Twitter

One of the relaxing issues was the customization of Twitter where participants showed a lot of creativity and an eye for visual integration.

Examples from Laetitia Paris, integrating twitter to Zoom Terre and Global Sports integrating GlobalSwagger with Global Sports US as well as our new Yvity Site:


Zoom Terre


Laetitia Paris


Global Swagger


globalsports1


yorgonestoridis-twitter


yvity

This is just the visible part of the iceberg: more work has been accomplished in the background about which we will report shortly after measuring the Google Top 10 performance as well as the expansion of the concerned Twitter accounts.

Conclusion

As usual, the seminar has been packed with goodies, but never before have we been able to knock down such a workload in two days.

Thanks to all Participants who have put their energy and focus to one of the most exciting topics online.
