كتاب "مائة سؤال عن الإسلام" للشيخ محمد الغزالى - السؤال الثالث
Friday, November 12, 2010
العدد الأول من مجلة للعصاميين الصغار
نقلا عن مدونة شبايك
أهلا بكم في العدد الأول من المجلة المصورة: للعصاميين الصغار، والتي ربما كانت أفضل ما كتبت على صفحات هذه المدونة والكتب. ذات يوم سألني الصديق معمر عامر: ما نصيب الأطفال والصغار العرب من كتاباتي؟ فتوصلنا معا بالتفكير إلى تصميم قصص مصورة ومبسطة، تحكي قصص العصاميين والناجحين، لتكون أسهل وأهون على نفوس الصغار، ورب قارئ تلهمه مثل هذه القصص فيعقد العزم مبكرا ليكون من التجار الناجحين، ومن مؤسسي العديد من الشركات الكبرى والناجحة. انشغل معمر عامر ببعض أعماله، وخوفا مني من ألا ننفذ هذه الفكرة، بحثت طويلا وكثيرا عن مصممين ورسامين آخرين يساعدونني على تنفيذ أول عدد من مجلة: للعصاميين الصغار.
ما وجدته هو أن رسم صفحة واحدة من صفحات كوميكس / القصص المصورة يكلف من 50 إلى 500 دولار، وفق مدى شهرة الرسام، ومدى عبقريته في ترجمة الكلمات إلى صور. ربما سيقول قائل أن مستوى جودة هذه القصة الأولى ليس بالدرجة المنشودة، لكن ثق تماما أن الجودة لا تأتي دون ثمن. كذلك الأعداد الأولى هى دائما من التجارب بغرض الوصول لشكل متقن وأفضل.
بصراحة شديدة، هذه المجلة تعتمد على التبرعات المالية من القراء، وبدونها لن تستمر في الصدور، وهي مجهود فردي يحتاج لدعم جمهور القراء. إذا أردت التبرع المالي عبر بطاقة الفيزا أو حساب باي بال، يمكنك النقر على الرابط التالي والمستضاف على موقع باي بال الأمريكي الشهير: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7W6GRX5KAZHWC
هذا العدد / الملف للتوزيع المجاني بدون مقابل، وأشكر كل من عمل على نشره وتوصيله إلى كل مستفيد. إذا لم تتمكن من التبرع يمكنك الحديث عن الفكرة (سواء سلبا أو إيجابا) في مدونتك أو منتداك المفضل، أو يمكنك إرسال نسخة من المجلة (أو طبعها وتوزيعها) إلى قريب صغير لإبداء الرأي. حجم الملف مضغوطا 6 ميجا بايت، ولذا أرجو ممن لديهم سعة في باندويدث مواقعهم استضافة الملف على مواقعهم وإرسال روابط التنزيل إلي لعرضها هنا في هذا الموضوع.
الملف مضغوط على نسق Zip ويبلغ حجمه 6.2 ميجا بايت، وهذا رابط تنزيله.

دليل استعمال الألوان في التسويق
نقلا عن مدونة شبايك :
بعد جهد جهيد، أقدم لكل عشاق التسويق هذا الدليل الملون لكيفية اختيار أي لون لاستعماله عند إعداد أي منشورات ومطبوعات ومواد إعلانية وترويجية وتسويقية لأي منتج. هذه محاولة فردية من محدثكم، تحتاج لنصائح واقتراحات القراء والمستخدمين، من أجل تحسينها وتطويرها واتقانها. سأتوقع من قراء مدونتي التفاعل معي بالرأي في هذا الدليل، وهل هو ذو فائدة لهم أي لا، وكيف، وماذا يريدون من أدلة مصورة مماثلة في المستقبل. كذلك، دليل مثل هذا لن يكون له قيمة أو شأن ما لم يرسله عشاق التسويق لمن يرونهم سيستفيدون منه!
الآن، أترككم لأحصل على بعض الراحة، بعد صراع مع القراءة والتلخيص والإخراج والتصميم… وهذا هو رابط تنزيل الدليل.
