Designing fabric, wallpaper, and gift wrap used to be the stuff of dreams. Only a few select creatives got to do it, and it required formal training and significant financial investment. But times have changed, and today anyone with a computer, Internet connection, and idea can upload a file and order their own fabric or paper, printed affordably one yard or more at a time. At the forefront of this revolutionary DIY movement is Spoonflower, a North Carolina startup that produces designs for hundreds of thousands of users worldwide—24 hours a day/seven days a week to keep up with demand. With step-by-step tutorials and projects that span a wide spectrum of skills, The Spoonflower Handbook is written for both new and experienced users of this print-on-demand technology. Covering everything from equipment to software to working with photos, scans, repeats, vector files, and more, it is an essential guide to a booming new creative outlet.

People are troubled and desperately looking for lasting peace and happiness. Like lost souls in a dry and weary land where there is no water, mankind seeks an oasis-an escape from the anxieties and pressures of daily life on earth. A place where he can drink away his sorrows while quenching his thirst for fun and excitement. But is there such an escape that can uplift the human spirit and make life feel better again? According to the Bible, the greatest book ever written, there is-and it quenches the thirstiest soul. But be warned-there are many counterfeits. In this book, Stephen Fraser uses Scripture to expose the "fake" for what it really is, while inspiring faith to experience the "real." Get ready to know the truth about wine and spirits that will bring you out of the ordinary and into a life of pure intoxication.

The .NET Framework creates a level playing field upon which all languages are equal, so using C++ to develop your Windows applications is no guarantee of high performance. However, Visual C++ .NET is the only language that's capable of mixing managed and unmanaged code, offering ways to integrate your existing code base with new .NET development that no other language can match. Additionally, the expansion of ATL into web application programming brings with it the possibility of writing web services that outperform anything developed in ASP.NET. 
In this book, we provide you with a guide to both paths. In the first half, we explore the .NET Framework and examine its properties in C++ terms. In the second, we see that traditional C++ programming still has a big part to play on the stage of distributed computing. 
What does the book cover? Changes and improvements to the Visual C++ IDE Complete introduction to using the Managed Extensions for C++ The role of attributes in .NET and COM programming Assemblies, and their support for strong naming and versioning Interoperation between managed and unmanaged code The RCW mechanism for COM and .NET interoperability ATL 7.0, ATL Server, and ATL Server web services The .NET Framework as a Windows class library
