Since its emergence, the digital photography market has gradually supplanted the traditional one. APN and digital SLR cameras entered our lives, and some people announced the death of silver-based images. This is not all lie, and yet old-fashioned images have been particularly popular in the past few years. All we do seem to do now is try to recreate the atmosphere of those bygone times anyway. Blurry, distorted and over-saturated images are not just a fad anymore. People have became familiar with the style and even consider it a full-fledged photographic genre.

And this is where toy cameras play a role. These devices, made entirely of plastic, including often the lens itself, are not only toys. Sure, they cost next to nothing and have no controls to speak of, but this is what people like about them: they create unpredictable pictures, with equally unpredictable vintage effects. Once you understand this, the rest is a beautiful game. Take them anywhere, anytime, and photograph whatever you like.

Hi again everyone,

The next Perth Drupal meetup is scheduled for 5:30 pm, Wednesday 24th March, 2010 at the Itomic Office in West Perth.

This will be our forth Drupal meetup in Perth, but the first that will follow some structure and won't be located at the (noisy) pub!

Below is the structure we are going to try to follow:

1. Introductions: everyone (or perhaps just the regulars?) to introduce themselves and their backgrounds in general.
2. Drupal South Wellington Debriefing by Thomas (thsutton).
3. Show & Tell: have those who wish to, talk about a Drupal project they are currently working on and/or recently completed where they've learnt something new and interesting.
4. Drupal Q&A HowTo: ask a question about any topic relating to drupal including but not limited to theming, informational architecture, module development, best practice modules, etc.
5. Discuss which topics should be focused on for the next meetup.

The Itomic Perth Office is located at Suite 34, City West Centre, corner Plaistowe Mews & Sutherland St, West Perth (google map link). You can either catch the train and walk 100 metres from the City West Train station (Fremantle line), or park in the City West section (where Scitech/Harvey Norman's is, which is free for the first 2 hours).

Itomic will be kindly supplying the meetup with beer, but if someone else could please bring some nibblies (chips, or something) that would be great.

As always, if you're interested in anything Drupal, please come along - all types are welcome: techies, project manager's, hobbyists, students, designers, anyone!

Please email either Sam or myself (alex.bergin@gmail.com) if you'd like a mobile contact number to help with finding the place.

Cheers and look forward to seeing you at the meetup!

Hello,

I have search this website forum and other content of net also to find solution but i didn't get it. So i have created this issue.

My problem is when any product is displayed with attributes than price of that attribute is displayed in this manner

Attribute Name :
option 1, +$10.00
option 2, +$20.00
option 3, +$30.00

Now instead of this i want to display it like

Attribute Name :
option 1, $10.00
option 2, $20.00
option 3, $30.00

I have tried attribute display option.
1st is Do not display. Which is not recommended for my website

On page
http://www.ubercart.org/docs/api/uc_payment_enter 

there is
"This is normally handled automatically by the function uc_payment_charge(), (...).
" The word uc_payment_charge() should be a link to docomentation for this method and it ist.BTW there isn't any documentation for that method yet.

I need an extend membership trigger.
Similar to when you edit a users profile you can add +1 month to the expiration of a role, I would like a trigger that is able to add 1 month on to the expiry of a user based on when an order receives a new payment.

The scenario:
I am using paypal button to set up a recurring payment from paypal. I have an ubercart product that is a role, called premium member, which has an expiry set to 1 month. The users are basically purchasing 1 month of access to the premium content on the site.

I thought I could not be out-geeked. With a background in radio, and having dabbled in the demo scene on the Commodore 64 and hung out on BBSes and IRC for a long time and all the other things normal kids don't quite get, I thought I was safe in this area.

Then I went to my first WhereCamp, an unconference dealing with geographical issues and how they relate to the world of Web development. Even my A-Levels in Astronomy did not help me there. I was out-geeked by the people who drive and tweak the things that we now consider normal about geo-location on the Web.

Pulling out your phone, find your location and getting directions to the nearest bar is easy, but a lot of work has gone into making that possible. The good news is that because of that effort, mere geo-mortals like you and me can now create geographically aware products using a few lines of code. So, let's give the geo-community a big hand.

Hi Uber Cart pros-

I am new here and would like to use Ubercart for our site and future clients-

Here is my weakness up front-

I know html - I know almost no PHP and know nothing about SQL-

I use apps and stay pretty much on the app / admin side - not the coding side -

I received this error when trying to test ubercart with Paypal sandbox -

user warning: Table 'brentsit_drp03.drup_uc_shipments' doesn't exist query: SELECT sid FROM drup_uc_shipments WHERE order_id = 2 in /home4/brentsit/public_html/lolhome/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 174.

The design profession is full of happy folks, and understanding why so many designers enjoy their work is not hard. But not all are so happy. If you’re not careful, the joy of getting paid to pursue your passion can be tainted by the less joyous realities of the professional world. You see, no matter how skilled you are as a designer, unless you are equally prepared in professional matters, your prospects will be limited and your circumstances compromised. This is true whether you work freelance, for an agency or in-house with a company.

Every week I hear from designers who are struggling to come to terms with these realities. Unhappy with their current circumstances, they write to ask for advice on improving their lot. Usually, they either claim not to understand how things got so bad, or they lay the blame somewhere other than at their own feet. In every case, however, the sole cause is their poor choices and lack of professional acumen. It needn’t be so.

My client wants to see a list price and a sell price for each attribute. He sells water filter assemblies. Each filter assembly comes with your choice of filters. You must choose a filter in order to add the item to the cart. Right now, we can only get the sell price for the assembly with the filter option. He'd like to see a list price consisting of the sum of the product base (assembly without the filter) list price and the option adder list price. Next to that, the sell price would be computed as it is now: sell price of base product plus sell price of the option.

I am using Ubercart 2 with Drupal 6.

When I go to the adjustments section of the product, it says "This product does not have any attributes."

I am doing a color attribute so I know it works. Why does this not show up?

Although much valuable information for all sorts of web and print professionals can be found online, it is often difficult to weed through all the noise and find good quality content. I believe it's vital that professionals in different creative fields supplement their online learning and research through well-edited and high-quality print publications.

Print magazines, more often than not, are well-researched and are headed by top-notch editorial staff, usually containing information and resources on the cutting edge of their respective industries' trends and happenings. To that end, to help you fulfill part of your offline research needs, I've compiled a list of print magazines that are of interest to professionals in three different categories: Web Designers, Digital Artists, and Photographers. And be sure to comment so you can tell us your personal favourite print magazine, if you don't see it listed here.

If I make a change to an attribute associated to a product class, the change is only applied to new nodes created for that class.

The changes are not propagated to older nodes and there doesn't seem to be a direct way of updating the older nodes like there is with the node_access tables.

Adobe Illustrator is a powerful software for illustrating that allows users to produce beautiful artwork, technical illustrations, and even graphics for both print and the web. Adobe Illustrator is a multipurpose vector illustration tool and its versatility makes it the most preferred choice among many professional artists and designers.

We present here hundreds of brilliant illustrations by artists from around the world that will surely mesmerize you and stir your imagination. Have a look, and feel the power of Illustrator!

We recognize that there are many more highly-talented illustrators that may not be mentioned here. We can't cover them all, but with your help we can try to showcase them in future posts. Please feel free to comment on this article and mention the name of your favorite artist.

I'd like to invite everyone in Melbourne (that's everyone, bring your mum) to Drupal meet-up at Em Space offices.

Brian Gilbert of realityloop will be presenting on Drupal Website Prototyping, he'll be demonstrating some apps (and he'll have freebies!).

It starts at 6:30 next Tues at L8, 289 Flinders Lane, Melbourne. Arrive before that or you'll have to ring me on 0425 869 746 so I can let you in.

Here we are on the map.

I'm sorry to say that this will probably be the final meet-up at our Melbourne office as Em Space is scaling down. Hope to see you there!

Cheers

On the front page, the RSS feed (http://www.ubercart.org/rss.xml) linked from the "Latest News" link under the news items has many posts that are not news, and should simply not be in the RSS feed, including random issues, forum posts, and other content.

Effectively this makes the RSS feed full of garbage, and look very unprofessional. Eg, there is an official entry about a new release of ubercart, followed by a forum post of someone asking about an error message when sending email.
