About gary Expertise If you require any shareware or freeware software for your pc or want to know whats the best shareware or freeware in any category i can help. From anti-virus software to peer to peer sharing programs to online games to pc game mods/patches to word processing software. I will find you good freeware/shareware software thats virus free, lag free and hopefully cost free.
Note: i can find you the software but i cannot find serial numbers for shareware for illegal purposes.
Experience i have spent a few years searching all sites and trying all sorts and freeware/shareware software to aid me in computer security, music converting, pc game patching and mods and even word processing.
Education/Credentials i did ICT in high school for 5 years, which was all about database software, then continued into A level computing for a year, which was antivirus software and programming.
I am not a programmer, nor am I very computer savvy. I would like to describe what I am attempting to accomplish and see if you can tell me which program that you can recommend, if any.
I have 3 sets of designs that I am trying to merge together into one picture.
I have 111 designs of SET "A" or the top section. These designs only cover the top third of a page.
I have 12 designs of SET "B" or the middle section. These designs only cover the middle third of a page.
I have another 111 designs of SET"C" or the bottom section. These designs only cover the bottom third of the page.
The best way I can think of to describe how the entire page will look is found in the grid shape of the old video game BERZERK. See the attached Google image of the game screen and you will get an idea of my designs, top, middle and bottom.
What I want to do is:
1. Enter my designs into some database amd name/number them.
2. Start with SET A, #1; at the top of the page, add SET B, #1; and SET C, #1 AT THE BOTTOM. Then I have my 1st picture and I save it. ( Then as an example...I go on... SET A, #1; SET B, #1; and SET C, #2... and so forth.)
3. I would progress with STEP 2 until all possible 147,852 combinations have been merged. Not all of them will work for my purposes, so not even 20% will be saved. However, that will still leave about 29,000 to save.
I will need some sort of program to:
1. Be able to enter the 3 designs sets into or import the designs from some other acceptable program.
2. A program that has the tool(s) to quickly (and somewhat automatically) keep the images moving as I hit the save or delete button.
3. I will need to be able to save and name the ones that will work for me and eventually copy them to CD.
4. I would like to be able to have all in a saved set to be able to be viewed as thumbnails( maybe 12 to a page).
My idea is similar to the TV commercial where you are looking at the image of a person, their complete front.
The head is the top section, then torso the middle section, and the legs are the bottom section.
For the purpose of my analogy: the head will change from one face to another, the torso will chamge different clothes, and the legs will change trousers and shoes, etc.
I call it the "mix and match" effect.
The purpose for this example is the effect that I believe I need to rapidly and efffectively catalog my merged designs.
Am I asking too much? I know it will take forever to review all these designs. However, I am just not a programmer and do not even know how to begin to set the parameters to let the computer autumatically draw and eliminate useless designs. I will be happy if steps 1 through 4 can be accomplished.
I thank you for your answer, time, consideration and wonderful website. JD
Answer hi thanks for your question.
i understand what you are saying.
However i dont understand what kind of program you are looking for?
are you looking for a program that deals with paint and pictures like photoshop?
a program that plays different images like powerpoint?
a program that creates 3d art and models like blender?
a program to create a mini-game like realityfactory?
a program with a database like excel only for pictures?
please add a follow-up if you would like me to continue trying to help with this question.
i do understand what you are saying though im unsure the type of program you are after and what you would like.
