Windows Post-Install Wizard (WPI) v6.5.1

                                 

Windows Post-Install Wizard (WPI for short) is a hypertext application designed for giving users choice. While Windows does offer many ways of customizing the setup process out of the box, the major drawback is the lack of being able to select which applications an end user may install. In the past, end users and administrators needed to either download the files manually, or create overly complex scripts that could only be used once. WPI allows you to create one image, which can then be custom configured, and optionally, automated, so that end users can install any applications. WPI runs on all current versions of Windows and with some updating almost all older versions on Windows as well.
I would like to add a very special thanks to Tony Lawrence for all of his help and support! Also to Jonathan "Wolfx2" Tychy for his graphics genius and web design!

                                          

If you do not know what WPI is, read the documentation. For any questions about configuration see the sample config and read the FAQ. If your problems persist, ask your questions in the forum. Please do a search first - someone might have asked the same question before.

Paint.NET 3.35 beta

    

Paint.NET est un logiciel pour éditer vos photos ou images . Il est gratuit . Avec ce logiciel , toutes les possibilités vous sont offertes : Effets , anti yeux rouges , etc..

               

Languages supportés : Anglais, Chinois (Simplifié), Français, Allemand, Japonais, Italien ,Coréen, Portuguais, et Espagnol.

               

                                 Attention !! .NET Framework 2.0 requis pour cette application !!  

           

Changelog :

* New: Posterize adjustment, by Ed Harvey.
* New: Intersect selection mode.
* Improved: Dramatically improved selection editing performance for the Add and Subtract modes (and also for Intersect). The performance used to be dependent on image size, and thus was often unusable on images larger than 1024x768 pixels. It is now dependent only on selection complexity (number of polygon edges) -- the improvement is generally between 3x and 1000x.
* Changed: Hotkeys for selection modes are now Left click for Replace, Control+Left click for Add (union), Alt+Left click for Subtract (difference), Alt+Right click for Intersect, and Ctrl+Right click for Invert (xor).
* Fixed: Sometimes pasting would result in a crash when certain types of malfored data were on the clipboard.
* Fixed: It was possible to get around some of the protections imposed by the IndirectUI system. This was causing instability with some plugins.
* Fixed: There were some issues with the implementation of "linked" sliders in IndirectUI.

Nous sommes toutefois bien conscients que certains utilisateurs souhaitent toujours contrôler le processus d'encodage du début à la fin. C'est pourquoi « DivX Converter » vous permet de régler les paramètres avancés et de personnaliser le processus. Vous pouvez par exemple utiliser les paramètres d'encodage avancés de « DivX Converter » pour :

• indiquer la taille des fichiers obtenus afin créer des vidéos adaptées à la capacité des disques ;
• modifier les débits binaires d'encodage pour plus de précision ;
• redimensionner les vidéos.
