Detail Your Facebook Romance

If you want to see the detailed Internet history of you and your significant other, go to www.facebook.com/us, and you will see the complete Facebook history with whomever you are listed as in a relationship with ("us," get it?). If you're not listed as being in a relationship, it will just go to your regular page because Facebook thinks that you are just in love with yourself.

There's Lots of Secret Emoji on FB

Emoji. They take away some of the horrible pain of writing in plain language. Facebook will render all the usual face emoticons into pictorial representations: :) :D ^_^ . You know the ones. But there's also a whole bunch that you may not even be using.

(y) = thumbs-up 'like' symbol
(^^^) = a great white shark
:|] = a robot
:poop: = well, you know
< (") = a penguin

You can use these in wall posts, chats, and comments, but they don't always seem to render in mobile. You can find a full run-down of Facebook emoticons here.

21 Hidden Facebook Features Only Power Users Know - Part 1

Facebook is the principal digital public square of today. Well, it's the principal digital public square for those of a certain age (i.e. post-college, the young'ns aren't into it!) But Zuck & Co's site is still an extremely integral virtual venue and will continue to be for some time.




While Facebook's business model has evolved away from just Facebook.com to include its mobile incarnation and other associated apps, the old familiar website is still the preferred venue for many. And why not? Facebook.com one of the most advanced public-facing websites out there.


Facebook is a magnet for some of the top engineering talent in the world, so it stands to reason that the company would boast one of the world's most complex and multi-faceted websites. It rivals many standalone software apps with the sheer amount of personalization, tweaks, and tinkering available to visitors.

In fact, there are so many things you can do on Facebook.com that you probably don't know about them all.



And we're not even talking about the third-party Facebook apps or browser add-ons, we're talking about all the official, baked-in, easily accessible functions that are just a few clicks away. As you'll see in our slideshow, there are even some functions that appear to be leftovers from bygone eras that we're not even sure Facebook still knows are there. Take a look and awaken your inner power user social super star.

mobileFx: ''

leave empty if you want to display the same effect on mobile devices and on desktop etc.

gridDifference: 250

to make the grid blocks slower than the slices, this value must be smaller than transPeriod

height: '50%'

here you can type pixels (for instance '300px'), a percentage (relative to the width of the slideshow, for instance '50%') or auto

hover: true

true, false. Pause on state hover. Not available for mobile devices

imagePath: 'images/'

the path to the image folder (it serves for the blank.gif, when you want to display videos)

loader: 'pie'

pie, bar, none (even if you choose "pie", old browsers like IE8- can't display it... they will display always a loading bar)

loaderColor: '#eeeeee'

loaderBgColor: '#222222'

loaderOpacity: .8

0, .1, .2, .3, .4, .5, .6, .7, .8, .9, 1

navigation: true

if true the navigation button (prev, next and play/stop buttons) will be visible, if false they will be always hidden

navigationHover: true

if true the navigation button (prev, next and play/stop buttons) will be visible on hover state only, if false they will be visible always

mobileNavHover: true

same as above, but only for mobile devices

opacityOnGrid: false

true, false. Decide to apply a fade effect to blocks and slices: if your slideshow is fullscreen or simply big, I recommend to set it false to have a smoother effect

overlayer: true

true, false. Decide to put a layer on the images to prevent the users grab them simply by clicking the right button of their mouse (.camera_overlayer)

pagination: true

true, false

playPause: true

true or false, to display or not the play/pause buttons

pauseOnClick: true

true, false. It stops the slideshow when you click the sliders

pieDiameter: 38

piePosition: 'rightTop'

'rightTop', 'leftTop', 'leftBottom', 'rightBottom'

if 0 the same value of cols

slicedRows: 8

if 0 the same value of rows

slideOn: 'random'

next, prev, random: decide if the transition effect will be applied to the current (prev) or the next slide

thumbnails: false

true, false

time: 7000

milliseconds between the end of the sliding effect and the start of the nex one

transPeriod: 1500

length of the sliding effect in milliseconds

CALLBACKS

onStartLoading: function() { }

this callback is invoked when the image on a slide start loading

onLoaded: function() { }

this callback is invoked when the image on a slide has completely loaded

onStartTransition: function() { }

this callback is invoked when the transition effect starts

onEndTransition: function() { }

this callback is invoked when the transition effect ends

Since Camera 1.3.0 you can get the index of the current slider by using the callbacks in this way:

onLoaded: function(){
  var ind = t.find('.camera_target .cameraSlide.cameranext').index();
}

With the method above you can get the index of the slide that will display after the transition effect.

onEndTransition: function(){
  var ind = t.find('.camera_target .cameraSlide.cameracurrent').index();
}

With the method above you can get the index of the slide at the end of the transition effect.

Camera.js usage - continued | part 2

Usage, how to include Camera into your projects - repost

AND ALL THE METHODS

THE BASIS

This is the basic structure to make Camera work:

<div class="camera_wrap">
    <div data-src="images/image_1.jpg"></div>
    <div data-src="images/image_1.jpg"></div>
    <div data-src="images/image_2.jpg"></div>
</div>

Just put this code into your HTML page and the basic slideshow will be ready to use. See the other demos to create more complex slideshows.

For jQuery newbies: after downloading and unzipping Camera, you can see some files in the folder called Examples included in the zip: there I provided some examples of Camera slideshow.

As you can see in the examples themselves, before the Camera plugin, you must call jQuery in the head of your document: without jQuery the slideshow doesn't work.

Then you must call jQuery Easing plugin and jQuery Mobile plugin. After that you must call Camera plugin and initialize the function camera with the simply method jQuery('YOUR_TARGET').camera();

SKINS

Do not forget to call also "camera.css". By editing this CSS file you can create your own personal skin, of course. But Camera already provides some skins. It has got 33different colors for the icons. To use them just add one of this classes to the target element (if you don't use any of this classes the color of the icons will be petroleum/graphite):

camera_amber_skin  |  camera_ash_skin  |  camera_azure_skin  |  camera_beige_skin  |  camera_black_skin  |  camera_blue_skin  |  camera_brown_skin  |  camera_burgundy_skin  |  camera_charcoal_skin  |  camera_chocolate_skin  |  camera_coffee_skin  |  camera_cyan_skin  |  camera_fuchsia_skin  |  camera_gold_skin  |  camera_green_skin  |  camera_grey_skin  |  camera_indigo_skin  |  camera_khaki_skin  |  camera_lime_skin  |  camera_magenta_skin  |  camera_maroon_skin  |  camera_orange_skin  |  camera_olive_skin  |  camera_pink_skin  |  camera_pistachio_skin  |  camera_pink_skin  |  camera_red_skin  |  camera_tangerine_skin  |  camera_turquoise_skin  |  camera_violet_skin  |  camera_white_skin  |  camera_yellow_skin

METHODS

This is the main function to start your slideshow. Have a look to the options for more detailed info about how to set the slideshow.

jQuery('YOUR_TARGET').camera(); //the basic method

jQuery('YOUR_TARGET').camera({ //here I declared some settings, the height and the presence of the thumbnails 
 height: '41%',
 pagination: false,
 thumbnails: true
});

You can use the public methods below to stop the slideshow, for instance, when you open a lightbox. They simply add or remove a class to the target element.

jQuery('YOUR_TARGET').cameraStop(); //stop the slideshow

jQuery('YOUR_TARGET').cameraPlay(); //start the slideshow

jQuery('YOUR_TARGET').cameraPause(); //pause the slideshow (some difference between 'pause' and 'stop': when you stop the loader and the commands are hidden)

jQuery('YOUR_TARGET').cameraResume(); //resume the slideshow after pausing

Introduction, where I talk about Camera slideshow

And I apologize for my bad English

HI THERE. First of all excuse me for my bad english, second excuse me if you will find some bugs on Camera slideshow. I developed it for free, so it's not easy to find the time to work on it. If you want to help me with a donation I'll appreciate :-)

Camera slideshow is an open source project, based on Diapo slideshow (http://www.pixedelic.com/plugins/diapo, no more supported, sorry), but improved a lot. You can suggest changes or improvements if you want. You can download it and use for free, you can also include it in your projects and sell it as part of a bigger work (in this case please consider a donation).

Camera slideshow (as Diapo) is tested on new browsers, but I tried to make it compatible with the old versions of Internet Explorer too (8 and 7). But I don't think I will spend many hours to improve this feature, sorry.

Camera slideshow requires jQuery 1.4+ and other jQuery plugins are necessary if you want to use some functionalities: jQuery Easing (visit the project page) and a customized version of jQuery Mobile (visit the project page) to use Camera with mobile devices. These plugins are included in the zip you can download at the bottom of this page.
