After end of August Microsoft barely offers the
secound beta of the Internet Explorer 8 now they answered to the question about "
What’s After Beta 2". The answer is "We will release one more public update of IE8 in the first quarter of 2009". Wow thats really slow! I believe at this time we will have
Firefox 3.1, Opera 9.7 (may
with a better GUI) and a much improved
Webkit/ Safari (and IE 8 is just another beta or RC).
What will be available when IE 8 reaching the final state?

Besides
Sifr, which is based an JavaScript and Flash, a new method embeding custom on websites poped up:
typeface.js. Basically this method rendering text with Javascript, <canvas> and SVG/ VML. Check out the
examples too. The bad thing about this method is that you can't select and copy text in a easy way
Myslef dreaming about the upcoming
@font-face support included in Firefox 3.1 (and still available in Opera or Webkit (Safari)). May M$ get it ready in IE8 too.

For me one of the best features of the upcoming Firefox 3.1 is the support for @font-face. This will bring real typos into the web and let web designers create more cool sites. So now we have @font-face support in
Webkit (Safari),
Gecko (Firefox) and Opera. That's great!
All about the new features of Firefox 3.1 can be found at the
Mozilla Developer Center.

After we getting the Beta2 of the Internet Explorer 8 and Googles Chrome Beta now the fight about the fastes browser is opened again. This Time it is now about rendering HTML, this time it is all about JavaScript. 2 Day's Chrome take the throne of speed but the new build of Firefox 3.1 with TracMonkey is very close. Check out that stats:
http://scr3.golem.de/?d=0809/Firefox_TraceMonkey&a=62200Some older performance tests:
http://ejohn.org/blog/javascript-performance-rundown/http://scr3.golem.de/?d=0809/Google_Chrome&a=62163Ok you notice the difference between 17866ms of the IE 7 and 1209 of Google Chrome, but can you notice the difference of 200ms? In fact that Google collects so many data, i didn't like the vision that Google collect any step i make at the web.

Looking around the web about an update for my
Linux-Mac-Windows CSS font matching list i found the interesting post
"Are Vista Fonts Ready for the Web?". Windows Vista shipped with
new screen optimized fonts that are only available there and it seems at the moment there aren't equal fonts on the other platforms available.

Again M$ has a "new" strategy for "opening" there formats and APIs. So at the moment they contact open source projects for some kind of "help" and took as an example for moving towards to open source their OpenXML - very strange behavior at all. They
contacted the Blender heads too . Read the
article at Groklaw about the true goals of M$. There is a discussion about that email at the
Blenderartitst board too.

Wine 1.0 RC1 is now available for
download. After 15 years of development it is planed to publish Wine on the 6th of June as final. Help the Wine project finding bugs and getting 1.0 stable.
Here is a short howto:
* Make sure Wine 1.0 RC1 and your favorite Windows app are installed
* Open a terminal and start your application with
env WINEPREFIX="~/.wine" wine "C:\Path\To\Your\app.exe"
* Check the output in the terminal and copy it per action via Ctrl+C into a text editor
(an example
http://www.neeneenee.de/wine_photoline1451.txt)* Go to the
Wine bugtracker create a account or login
* First make sure the bug isn't submited yet
* If the bug exist create a comment and append a link to your textfile of the output
If you do not have any Wine experience check out my post
"Getting your Windows app running on Linux in a easy way". You can
tweak the Wine GUI too to give it a more Ubuntu styled look.

If you are missing features in Gimp and didn't like to pay a lot for Photoshop you should definitely tryout
Photoline. It's powerfull and stable as Photoshop itself, has the best PSD file support i ever saw and it is
really cheap.
The only bad thing is you need
Wine to get it running on Linux. At the moment i getting some problems with the icons of the toolbars and sometimes the cursor is not visible. I think this could be fixed soon when a new stable version of Wine is available.
All about Photoline 14.51 can be found in the
release notes.
UPDATE: I added a
bug report to the bugzilla of the Wine project.

Yesterday i had my talk about Wine at the
Ubuntu Hardy release party Berlin. There were a lot of other interesting talks too and i met very nice people interested in graphic design, web development and Wine (greetings to Marcus, Renee and Gabriel
).
On some demo PC's i played around with
Ubuntu Hardy Heron and i geting the feeling its very fast and runs much better then Gutsy did.
Soon i will publish my talk about WINE and getting Windows software running here.

The last two versions of
Wine 0.9.58 and 0.9.59 didn't work well with Photoshop CS, there are a lot of problems with Ctrl+Click (may selecting layer transparency) or Shift+Click (Wand tool). So i downgraded Wine to 0.9.57 which i downloaded from the
archive and used
sudo dpkg -i wine_0.9.57~winehq0~ubuntu~7.10-1_i386.deb
to get the older version running while the newer was installed. Wine 0.9.57 runs for me very well
When you use wine for the first time you can
tweak the Wine GUI too to give it a more Ubuntu styled look.
