To calculate the number of people currently viewing a page is a little tricky. You could get the exact number with an AJAX function that monitored your user and continually corresponded with a script and stored the information.
If you don’t know AJAX you can do something like create a database that stores the IP, time stamp, and URI then display the count for the last 5-10 minutes.

Create an array to store items that you display. For instance
$page_name_displayed=array(); //ARRAY FOR CHECKING IF IT’S THERE
if(!in_array($page_name,$page_name_displayed)){ //CHECK IF IT’S THERE
$page_name_displayed[]=$page_name; //ADD TO THE ARRAY SO IT DOESN’T SHOW UP AGAINif ($last_edit > date(“Y-m-d”, strtotime (“-8 days”))) echo “$page_name — $last_edit
“; else echo “”;}

If you’ve turned up the quality in the “Save for Web & Devices” dialogue then there shouldn’t be a reason to need the file size 8 MB. You could always try saving through the file menu > save as and choose what format you want, this will give you a slightly larger file size if you turn up the quality.
Sounds like you are saying you need a larger file size and not better quality so I’m a bit confused…

Additionally once you create the action you can use the batch command under the file menu > automate.
This will allow you to apply an action to a folder or all opened files through PS.

In the “Save for Web/Devices” window you can adjust the quality for JPEG images and the colors for GIF images to increase or decrease the file size. If you are at 2048 KB or 2 MB all you need to do is increase the quality a little with the controls in that window.

This drop down menu effect is created in Flash. To recreate this effect you will need to familiarize yourself with Adobe Flash and understand how drop down menus work in Flash. Here’s a link to a basic drop down menu tutorial that will help you get started in the right direction.
First of course you’ll need to purchase Flash. There are probably built in functions in Flash CS3 that allow you to do this process more easily and you might want to ask in the Flash Forum.

Try creating an action for the match command with your settings and play it on all your images as you ctrl tab through them.

Yea if you learn flash and dreamweaver. Primarily flash you will be able to do this effect. This page turn looks like the one commonly used around the net that is free code at:
https://www.iparigrafika.hu/pageflip/I used this effect on a project once. You’ll need to know some action scripting to do this as well.

Try f6 – f6 opens the color window pallet. I know this isn’t as good as the picker but I don’t think there is one for the picker. I looked through the keyboard shortcuts under the edit menu or ctrl+alt+shift+k and didn’t see the color picker in there. Hopefully adobe ads this feature as it would be very helpful.
