Easy way to generate backgrounds for web site banners

If you are not a born designer, making background images for your web sites is always a headache. Since I felt lazy to always go to a designer, I found some online tools to do that for me. Hope they will help others like me as well.

These low poly backgrounds were always fascinated me and wanted to use some in my web sites as well.

These are some tools you can use to generate them without any effort.

Water pipes is another awesome artwork

Since everybody is talking about material design lately this will be helpful.

Finally some CSS gradient generators

VLC skins

It's been a while from my first blog post, so today I thought to make a blog post about skins in VLC player. I think you all are familiar with VLC player if not, here's the link for the website www.videolan.org/vlc/index.htm l In brief, VLC player is a free and opensource player that can play almost all the types of media formats. Even though it is a such a nice player, it looks kind of old and rusty, like the windows classic look. But you can make it prettier by just adding some new skins to it.  You can download skins for the player from here http://www.videolan.org/vlc/skins.php Then place the downloaded skin file (.vlt file) in the " skin " folder in the installation directory.           eg:- in windows:    C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\skins           or in linux systems:  ~/.local/share/vlc/skins Then, open the VLC player and go to the preferences. ...

Java, how to create a list with a single element

 I wanted to create a Java List with a single element. Yet, I wanted to add more elements later. So, I was looking for a couple of ways to do this. So far there are multiple elegant ways to create a list with a single element with a one-liner. Not so much for a modifiable list though. Here's what I gathered so far. Followings are a few ways of creating a list with strictly a single entry. Can't add more elements. 1. Collections.singletonList() This returns an immutable list that cannot be modified or add more elements. // An immutable list containing only the specified object. List<String> oneEntryList = Collections. singletonList ( "one" ) ; oneEntryList.add( "two" ) ; // throws UnsupportedOperationException 2.  Arrays.asList() This returns a fixed-size list consisting of the number of elements provided as arguments. The number of elements provided would be an array hence the size is fixed to the length of the array. // Returns a fixed-size list List...

Find command: How to find and delete 0 bytes files in Linux

In Linux, "find" command is a powerful command that we can use not only to find files. I've used it for different requirements, so thought of posting some of the convenient usages of find commands in a series of posts. For some application issue, I've got one of my directories in Ubuntu system swarmed with empty files with 0 bytes. Some of the files got data in them but some of them were empty. I just wanted to delete the empty files and it wasn't possible to identify them by file names or dates. So find command comes to rescue. find . -size 0 -type f  If I needed to isolate the files by file extension, we can use something like this. find . -size 0 -type f -name "*.tar" You can get the file count by piping it to wc command. find . -size 0 -type f -name "*.tar" | wc -l The awesome thing about the find command is you can use it for deleting files just by adding the -delete flag to the command. find . -size 0 -type f -name "*.tar" -dele...
