Convert Images Between WebP and PNG Formats for Free

As someone who runs a small business online, I'm always looking for ways to optimize my images without sacrificing quality. That's why I was excited to find webppng.com, a free online image converter that lets you quickly switch between WebP and PNG file formats.

For those not familiar, WebP is an advanced compressed image type created by Google that can drastically reduce file sizes compared to PNGs. The only catch is that some older browsers don't support WebP.

That's where webppng.com comes in! Their free WebP to PNG converter lets me upload my WebP product photos and download optimized PNG versions compatible with more websites and apps. And when I have PNGs, their PNG to WebP converter lets me benefit from the smaller file sizes of the WebP format.

I love that webppng.com offers:

Fast bulk conversion right in your browser

Preserved image quality with customizable compression

An easy drag and drop interface that's simple to use

Unlimited usage with no hidden costs or limits

Being able to seamlessly switch between WebP and PNG has been a huge help for my small online store. I can have smaller WebP files for modern browsers while still supporting PNGs for maximum compatibility across platforms.

If you work with lots of product images like me, I'd definitely recommend checking out webppng.com's free WebP and PNG converter. It's an easy way to optimize your site's images for speed and performance.

[kyokosasagawa]

I started writing "4 srs" this month and I like how free and accessible writing is, so I'm recommending free software I've experimented with that might help people who want to get into the hobby!

“Specifically Created for Writing Stories”

-------------------------------

Manuskript – Story organizer / word processor. Has an outliner and index card function, along with distraction free mode. Lets you switch between different templates such as a non-fiction mode or a short story.

Bibisco – Novel writing software that includes writing goals, world-building, distraction free mode, and a timeline.

“I Just Want to Write”

---------------------------

LibreOffice – Microsoft 365 alternative, but free! LibreOffice Writer is what I wrote this tumblr post in before I posted it. Also if you copy & paste the text into the Rich Text Editor on AO3, it seems that it actually converts it properly. Nice! No need for scripts.

Note-Taking

-------------------------------

Zim Wiki - note taking application that is very, very lightweight (1.1mb). It functions with a tree structure, so I’d personally recommend it for world-building and character bios. There are built-in plugins that also turn it into a good software for task management (it even has a article on how to use it for GTD) and journalling. See also: CherryTree (2mb), which is a more outdated-looking app, but functions similarly.

Obsidian MD – The Big Boy. markdown note editor that has been adopted by personal knowledge management fans---if it doesn’t do something you want it to do, just look in the community plugins to see if someone has already done it. Some unique non-word processing related usages I’ve found is the ability to create a table of contents dashboard, a image gallery for images, embedding youtube videos and timestamping notes, so forth.

Logseq – A bullet point based markdown note editor that also has PDF annotations, Zotero integration, flashcard creation, and whiteboards. Best used for outlining projects due to the bullet point structure.

Joplin – A modern app comparable to Zim Wiki, it’s basically just a note-taking software that uses folders and tags to sort easier. Looks prettier than Zim Wiki and Cherry Tree

Notion – An online-only website that allows usage of different database types. Free for personal use. Note: I dislike the AI updates that have been making the app lag more. I prefer the others on this list.

Mind Maps

-------------------------------

Freeplane – So much goddamn features, including a ton of add-ons. Looks somewhat ugly, but it works for anyone willing to spend a while learning how to use it.

Mermaid – Text-based diagram creator. Can be used in apps like Joplin, Notion, and Obsidian.

Obsidian’s Canvas – A core plugin for Obsidian, it deserves its own mention in that it allows you to create embedded notes of the mindmap nodes. Thus, if you want to create a 20-page long note and have it minimized to the size of a penny on the mindmap, you could.

Other Things That Might Be Of Interest

Syncthing - A free software that allows you to sync between two or more computers. Have a desktop but also laze around on a laptop in bed, coming up with ideas?? This is your buddy if you don't want to use a online software.

[shakingparadigm]

Since you made those frame by frame folders for each video do you just normal files of all the videos that we can download? I can't figure out how to do it for free and I don't want Youtube Premium, Thanks!

Sure, I can do that! Just give me a moment to get home.

If you want to do it yourself for free, you could copy the link to the video and paste it into a converter website online, although I will admit that this method is risky because of the possible malware and constant pop-ups. I'm not sure if there's a better alternative, but I personally use the app Snaptube to download videos on mobile!

Though if you're really wary, I'll still be providing you with the videos, so no worries :)

[silvermoon424]

is there any particular site/software you recommend for downloading videos from youtube?

Yes, I have 2 options that I've spoken about on here before! One is actual software and the other is a direct command-line program. Basically, that means that you're directly interfacing with your computer and telling it what to do through lines of text instead of through software. In macOS you use the Terminal app, whereas Windows has cmd.exe

Yt-dlp is the command line program. On top of letting you rip Youtube videos directly from the site, this program supports a huge array of other video/media websites. The program is highly customizable as well; I would highly recommend at least installing FFmpeg, which allows you to download videos in quality higher than the default 720p. Here’s a guide on how to do that for Windows and I wrote a guide here for Mac (I forgot to write in the guide that you should install FFmpeg via Homebrew).

If the Github page is overwhelming and too technical for you, don't worry, there are tons of guides you can look up online from tech websites/subreddits that use more approachable language. It took me a while to figure this out, lol. But I really do think this is an excellent tool.

However, if you are just looking for software, I can personally recommend the 4K Video Downloader. It's a fantastic application (compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linus) that allows you to save videos and mp3s from a huge variety of websites. You can download entire Youtube playlists, convert Youtube videos to mp3s, download videos with subtitles, etc. Most functions are free but a premium version can be bought for a one-time fee of $25.

[when-life-gives-you-lemons-if]

Hi there! I'm a twine game developer and I noticed you'd converted your games to be used on Steam and the Google Play store. I'd love to ask a few questions about this, if that's okay? 1. What tools/methods did you use to convert your Twine game to APK? Did you come across any limits with file sizes and game dependencies? e.g. Images pushing you over the 100mb limit? 2. As above, but what tools/methods did you use to get Twine into an executable for Steam? Were there any hiccups here? 3. If you had to make a text-based game with gamified elements and graphics (and you wanted it on Steam/Android, and to retain screen reader capabilities) would you do it in Twine again, or would you use another engine or solution such as Ren'py, Godot, Unreal, etc? Thank you so much for your time!

Hi.

Under the cut, you'll find a list of videos and links that helped me put the game on Steam and Android.

Feel free to ask any questions as you go through the process—some steps aren't detailed here, as a few things currently escape my memory.

To be able to publish your game on Steam, Google Play, or Apple store, you need to create an account.

Follow the steps on this video to create an account on Steam:

Or this one:

This is the Steam work page to start:

Follow this step for google Play

Twine game needs to be repacked as app before you can publish them.

To repack your Twine games, use these steps:

For Google, you'll need an Android repacker. You can use this one below: (This site is not free)

Here is how to use it (Skip to 3:01 minutes)

For point #1, I had no issues with size or image limit. Steam does give you different ways to upload depending on the size of your game.

For point #2, there will be hiccups and errors when you try to complete this checklist on Steam, but again, watch the videos and send some questions my way, I'll help as much as I can.

For point #3, I have no idea about the Screen Reader part. I know Twine is good for it, but personally, I don't plan on using Twine any longer, I'm moving to Renpy because it's are easier for me as of now.

Side note: Be sure to watch even more videos than those listed and don't hesitate to do additional research on Google whenever you feel stuck. Most questions and answers are already out there, so a quick search can often point you in the right direction.

If you still need help, feel free to send your questions my way!

My first review is for a pair of Adidas Samba-inspired sneakers I snagged from the "little yellow" app. As a budget-conscious shopaholic, I'm always on the lookout for great dupes, and these caught my eye. I was impressed with the quality—they look remarkably similar to the Sambas. Sadly, I made a rookie mistake with the sizing. I'm a women's 9 and mistakenly ordered a men's 9. It turns out the app's women's sizes only go up to a 7.5 US, so anyone with larger feet will need to convert to men's sizes. Since returns aren't an option, these are sadly going unused. Learn from my mistake! Aside from the sizing issue, I highly recommend this seller. The shoes are well-made, the other reviews appear legitimate, and the price ($37 with free shipping) is unbeatable. Expect around three weeks for shipping, which is standard for this type of platform.

For secure online shopping, I always recommend using trusted third-party payment systems like Apple Pay, Google Pay, or PayPal. It's best to avoid entering your card information directly on websites, as even trusted sites can be vulnerable to security breaches.

Common Web Design Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

Designing a website is a critical step in establishing a strong online presence. However, even the most well-intentioned efforts can result in mistakes that impact usability, performance, and SEO. In this article, we’ll highlight common web design mistakes and provide actionable solutions to avoid them. By addressing these pitfalls, you can ensure your website achieves its full potential and stands out in a competitive digital landscape.

1. Ignoring Mobile Responsiveness

The Mistake: Many websites still lack proper mobile optimization, leading to poor user experience on smartphones and tablets.

How to Avoid It: Prioritize responsive web design services to ensure your website adapts seamlessly to all devices. Partnering with a leading website development company in Jaipur can help you create a mobile-friendly website.

2. Overloading with Visual Elements

The Mistake: Using excessive images, animations, or design elements can slow down your site and confuse users.

How to Avoid It: Focus on simplicity and functionality. Balance visuals with clean layouts that enhance user navigation without sacrificing speed.

3. Poor Navigation Structure

The Mistake: Complicated menus or lack of a clear navigation path frustrates users and increases bounce rates.

How to Avoid It: Use intuitive navigation menus and ensure every page is easily accessible. Collaborate with web design experts who specialize in creating user-friendly interfaces.

4. Neglecting SEO Basics

The Mistake: Forgetting to optimize meta tags, headers, and images for search engines can harm your website’s visibility.

How to Avoid It: Work with SEO-savvy web developers who ensure your website is optimized for keywords like “best website development company in Jaipur” and “web design services.”

5. Slow Loading Speeds

The Mistake: Websites that take too long to load risk losing visitors before they even see the content.

How to Avoid It: Use tools to compress images, minimize CSS/JavaScript, and optimize your hosting. Regular performance checks by professional developers are essential.

6. Inconsistent Design Elements

The Mistake: Mismatched fonts, colors, and layouts create a lack of brand identity and professionalism.

How to Avoid It: Maintain a consistent design theme throughout your website. Utilize brand colors and typography to enhance recognition and trust.

7. Failing to Include a Call-to-Action (CTA)

The Mistake: A lack of clear CTAs results in missed opportunities to convert visitors into customers.

How to Avoid It: Add compelling CTAs on every key page, guiding users toward desired actions like signing up or making a purchase.

8. Ignoring Accessibility

The Mistake: Not designing for accessibility excludes a significant portion of users with disabilities.

How to Avoid It: Implement features like alt text for images, keyboard navigation, and proper contrast ratios.

Lynn tells us about her methods for making her wonderful cartoons featured in The New Yorker and many other publications this week!

Bio: I worked as an architect for many years before changing paths to become a cartoonist and writer. While working as an architect, I dabbled in printmaking, painting, and humor writing, often collaborating with sketch comedy groups at ImprovBoston. When the theater shut down during the pandemic, I started cartooning, which I found therapeutic and fun, as it combined my love of drawing with humor writing. Online classes taught by Emily Flake, Amy Kurzweil, and other talented people, were incredibly helpful and inspiring. In 2022, I sold my first cartoon (below) to The New Yorker and soon after, my first Daily Shouts piece.

My work has also appeared in publications such as Alta Journal, Air Mail, Weekly Humorist, Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, WSJ, and The American Bystander (cartoon below).

While I mostly focus on humor, I occasionally write darker stories for horror and sci-fi magazines like Space & Time. Currently, I reside in Boston with my husband, twin boys, and dog, Mochi, who provides emotional support when my work is rejected

Once I have a list of ideas and rough sketches, I draw the cartoon on my Samsung Galaxy Book 2-in-1 convertible laptop. It has a small built-in pen that comes with it. My preferred app is Clip Studio Paint, which is a less expensive alternative to Photoshop. I’m still experimenting with different brushes and washes in my work. For my posture, I use an adjustable stand by Lpoake. For my sanity, I often work on the porch so I can get some fresh air and vitamin D. Mochi keeps me company and nudges me periodically for attention.

Tool I wish I could use better: Watercolor. I love painting with oil and acrylics, but I struggle with washes and hope to improve. 

Tool I wish I existed: A magic chair that heals back and shoulder pain (and also teleports you to any location in the world). 

Tricks: Not a fancy trick, but I’ve been using Google Keep to jot ideas down in an organized way when I don’t have my sketchbook with me. I can access this list via phone, tablet, or computer.

Misc: Getting feedback on your work is invaluable. Sometimes, I’ll draw a cartoon and think it’s hilarious, but then I show it to my husband, who doesn’t understand the caption or the sketch. I’m fortunate to have found a group of supportive cartoonists with whom I can share my work and exchange comments on a regular basis. Online classes and workshops are also great ways to learn a new craft and meet other amazing artists, writers, and humorists.

Boost Sales: Responsive Web Design & Ecommerce App Development 

In the fast-paced world of online retail, staying ahead of the competition requires more than just offering great products and services. Your digital presence plays a crucial role in attracting and retaining customers. Two key elements that can significantly boost your sales are responsive web design and ecommerce app development. By focusing on these aspects, you can enhance the user experience, improve accessibility, and ultimately drive more conversions. In this article, we'll explore how responsive web design and ecommerce app development can transform your online business and lead to increased sales. 

1. The Importance of Responsive Web Design 

Responsive web design is a design approach that ensures your website looks and functions well across all devices, including desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones. With the increasing use of mobile devices for online shopping, having a responsive website is no longer optional—it's essential. 

Why Responsive Web Design Matters: 

Enhanced User Experience: A responsive website automatically adjusts to fit the screen size of the device being used. This means that whether your customers are browsing on a smartphone or a large desktop monitor, they will have a seamless and enjoyable experience. A positive user experience is crucial for keeping visitors on your site and encouraging them to explore your products or services further. 

Improved SEO Performance: Search engines like Google prioritize websites that offer a good user experience across all devices. Responsive web design is a key factor in achieving higher search engine rankings. By ensuring your website is mobile-friendly, you can improve your visibility in search results, attract more organic traffic, and increase your chances of converting visitors into customers. 

Increased Conversion Rates: A website that is difficult to navigate on mobile devices can frustrate users and lead to higher bounce rates. On the other hand, a responsive design makes it easy for users to find what they're looking for, whether it's product information, contact details, or checkout options. This ease of use can significantly increase your conversion rates and boost sales. 

2. The Role of Ecommerce App Development in Boosting Sales 

While a responsive website is essential, having a dedicated ecommerce app can take your online business to the next level. Ecommerce app development focuses on creating a mobile application specifically designed for online shopping, offering a more personalized and streamlined experience for your customers. 

Benefits of Ecommerce App Development: 

Personalized Shopping Experience: Ecommerce apps allow you to offer a more personalized shopping experience by leveraging user data. Features such as personalized product recommendations, tailored promotions, and saved shopping carts can make your customers feel valued and encourage repeat purchases. 

Faster and More Convenient Shopping: Apps are generally faster and more responsive than mobile websites, providing a smoother shopping experience. With features like one-click purchasing, push notifications, and offline access, ecommerce apps make it easier and more convenient for customers to shop, leading to increased sales. 

Loyalty Programs and Rewards: Ecommerce apps can be integrated with loyalty programs, offering customers rewards for making purchases, referring friends, or engaging with your brand. These incentives can encourage users to return to your app, fostering customer loyalty and boosting long-term sales. 

Direct Communication with Customers: Push notifications allow you to communicate directly with your customers, informing them about new products, special offers, and upcoming sales. This direct line of communication can drive immediate engagement and encourage impulse buying, resulting in higher sales. 

3. Combining Responsive Web Design and Ecommerce App Development 

To maximize the impact of your online presence, it's important to combine the strengths of both responsive web design and ecommerce app development. Here's how you can integrate these strategies to boost your sales: 

Consistent Branding Across Platforms: Ensure that your brand’s look and feel is consistent across your responsive website and ecommerce app. This consistency helps build brand recognition and trust, making it easier for customers to navigate between your website and app. 

Seamless Integration of Features: Features that work well on your responsive website should also be available on your app, and vice versa. For example, if your website offers a wish list or shopping cart, these should be seamlessly integrated into your app so that customers can access them from any device. 

Data-Driven Insights: Use data from both your responsive website and ecommerce app to gain insights into customer behavior. By analyzing this data, you can optimize your marketing strategies, product offerings, and user experience to better meet the needs of your customers and drive sales. 

Targeted Marketing Campaigns: Leverage the data collected from your ecommerce app to create targeted marketing campaigns. For example, you can send personalized offers to customers who have abandoned their carts, or promote new products to users based on their previous purchases. These targeted campaigns can significantly increase your sales and customer retention rates. 

4. Implementing Best Practices for Success 

To fully benefit from responsive web design and ecommerce app development, it's important to follow best practices during the implementation process: 

Prioritize Mobile Users: Given the growing number of mobile shoppers, prioritize the mobile experience when designing your website and app. Ensure that your website loads quickly on mobile devices and that your app is easy to navigate, with intuitive controls and clear calls to action. 

Focus on Speed and Performance: Both your responsive website and ecommerce app should be optimized for speed and performance. A slow-loading site or app can frustrate users and lead to lost sales. Regularly test and optimize your digital platforms to ensure they perform well under different conditions. 

Invest in Quality Development: Work with experienced developers who understand the nuances of both responsive web design and ecommerce app development. Investing in quality development ensures that your digital platforms are robust, secure, and capable of handling high traffic volumes. 

Keep User Experience at the Forefront: Always keep the user experience in mind when designing your website and app. Consider how users will interact with your platforms and what features will make their shopping experience easier and more enjoyable. 

Conclusion 

Responsive web design and ecommerce app development are powerful tools that can significantly boost your online sales. By creating a seamless and enjoyable shopping experience across all devices, you can attract more customers, increase conversions, and build long-term loyalty. Whether you're just starting out or looking to enhance your existing digital presence, investing in these strategies is essential for staying competitive in today's ecommerce landscape. Start optimizing your website and developing your ecommerce app today to unlock new opportunities for growth and success.

I’ve been meaning to ask for a while – you purchased the digital copy of Mononoke Shu from Bookwalker, yes?

How easily can you purchase it with non-Japanese currency? And is the format a downloadable PDF of sorts? I’m trying to find a more affordable/shipping-free alternative to getting my Mononoke merch fix ;u;

Yeah, I got it from Bookwalker for around $5 USD

I had to use google translate to figure out what it was saying while I was going through the checkout (it's only on the Japanese side of website so it's not translated), but other than having to run it through that, it was a pretty standard online shopping experience, just make the account if you don't have one already and then go through the putting in the payment info and then you can grab the book whenever you want from your account. The price is listed in yen but they don't seem to have an issue converting to dollars or euros

Annoyingly, if you do buy it through Bookwalker, they have a proprietary file format they use to where you can only view it on their website or their mobile app, which if your internet is reliable is...okay, but it's not like you can download it and access it and you own it, you're pretty much just buying access to it on Bookwalker. On the other hand (and I'm not saying you *should* do this necessarily but I will put it out there) there's nothing stopping you from going into the browser version of their reader and using the snipping tool on any part of the page you might find interesting...or the whole page...or flipping through and getting every page to ad hoc an offline version for use. You know. Hypothetically. It's not like Crunchyroll where it'll block out the contents of the screen when you're using any kind of screen recording tool. So...there is that. Again, hypothetically, do with that information what you will

Hope this helps :)

(And if you're looking for other shipping-free merch and don't already have them, I know that the manga adaptions for the show are on Bookwalker too, probably with the same deal, but I haven't actually nabbed those just yet. I sure do know that they went out of their way to make the medicine vendor real pretty though)
