In addition to my previous question about preferred saving formats, I was also curious about saving images with transparent backgrounds in Photoshop. Is there a particular format that is preferable when you wish to save any image that has a transparent background while in my Photoshop program? (For example; If I were to save a round image [like the planet earth] which has a transparent background, once I save it, would the background be a white square around the image? I'm curious about this because if I were to design a logo for someone in a particular non-square shape and they wished to use JUST this shape for whatever reason, how do I do this without the white background being saved around the shape? Does saving a shape, or particular color text with a transparent background save only the shape [or text] of the image?
And again, which format is best for saving purposes and why?

My laptop was working fine Saturday night, I have a wireless adaptor that gives me axcess to the internet. Then when I went to go online Sunday it couldn't connect to the internet and kept on saying that a network cable was unplugged. All the other computers in the house work and they are connected to the same wireless network. Please help!!!

What do you think of this whole thing? I think, before we go sending 1 laptop to every child in other countries, that we should give our kids laptops first. Even in this day and age, kids in the US and Canada dont have computers in their home. As a kid myself, id like to have a computer to take from home to school. I wouldnt have nearly as much stuff to lug from class to class.

These computers are supposed to be called,

OX classmate PC, so read up on them. they sound pretty cool for the most part, and super cheap for what they are.

Thanks for your opinions!

My current computer specs.
Intel Pentium 4 524 (HT) @ 3067 MHz
My Memory is Xerox 256 MB PC2100 DDR
My motherboard is Intel D101GGC
And I have a 30 something gig hd, dun no what speed it is.

What I want to do is buy a new hard drive, probably a WD 7200 rpm SATA 3.0gb (will this work with my motherboard?)

Than i plan to get 1 gig memory DDR 400 added to my 256 which is PC 2100. Is it better if I get 512 x2 DDR 400 (throwing out the 256; or get 1 gig pc3200 added to a slower speed 256 pc2100.

Which is better for my memory choice? 512 x2 pc3200 or 1g pc3200 + 256 pc 2100

ALSO is this a good upgrade or should i just get another PC??

I'm wanting to buy two 512mb sticks of DDR 400 SDRAM (PC3200) and I just want to know what brands to avoid and what brands to consider, preferably under $50 per stick but not el cheapos.

For instance, I've heard mixed things (but mostly good) about Kingston and that cheap Corsair RAM dies after a few months.

while playing need for speed: carbon, the game just shuts down randomly. i can believe that its a performance issue: i just bought a new comp with a 3ghz pentium d dual core cpu, 1gb pc5400 ram, 200gb hdd, and a nvidia 8400 256mb gpu.
i saw somewhere in the control panel on my comp that i only have 550mb free. is the game taking more than 550mb to run, and thats why its shutting down? i do run the game settings on high detail.

i know it cant be from the cpu overheating. i have a thermaltake big typhoon (i MASSIVE cpu heatsink!) installed hat keeps it pretty cool (about 45c under load, i think).

what else could be causing the problem? i ordered another gig of ram, will that solve the problem?

If I did NOT buy Microsoft Project and I wanted a VERY similar software package that could perform most of the tasks that Project performs, what would that software be and how much would it cost?

I've read about WMware Server and player; coLinux, etc. I need to have a system that will allow me to access the same files in both linux and windows; I currently use a dual boot system and it makes me crazy. Unfortunately, I have windows-only apps that are critical and also the need to do a lot of stuff in linux...

I appreciate the expertise on Yahoo Answers; thanks for your help.

I have a log file which is constantly storing text in lines. I want to find a way to remove any line that says "[PM] This is a test line" (I will change that with the desired text), once an hour. Like, if I have a file that says:

[S] Some text here
[PM] This is a test line
[S] Some other text here

I want to make a batch file which will remove all lines that say "[PM] This is a test line", leaving just:

[S] Some text here
[S] Some other text here

Any ideas?

I cannot figure out why whenever i try to correct a word that was previously typed, it begins to write over what i had perviously written. Instead of making room for the newly written word..it deletes the text next to it to make room, hence making me re-write the entire paragraph because of one mistake...is it a problem with auto formatting?

As soon as I attempt to run it, it instantly utilizes 100% of the cpu and the AVG E-mail scanner kicks in; then about 5-8 minutes later, 2 unresponsive microsoft word 2000 windows open up and then nothing. I already sent an error report and am not holding my breath.
Strangely, it also seems I can not install windows updates.
Is there anything I could try (all I have in the way of security software is AVG free) that doesn't involve me installing spyware removers and such?...or does it seem that's my only option at this point? Please help. Pretty pretty please. I don't wanna buy a new computer yet...too expensive. There MUST be something I can do...there MUST be a computer expert on Yahoo Answers somewhere out there...
