So you want to transfer files from one folder to another using Windows Explorer and you would know the limitations and pain of moving to and fro in the same window. Other alternative we choose is opening two Explorer Windows and then perform the transfer.

There is another alternative to this issue, a freeware FolderBox. It displays additional folders in the lower part of Explorer, which enables you to display the contents of two folders at once. This makes file transfer really easy and breeze. Also, you can add up to 5 tabs on this window with each tag specifying unique folder location. So, in single explorer window you can transfer files to 5 different locations without flipping the window around.

You can download this software here (scroll down link for FolderBox)

Want to have good enough storage for your music and files… well Take a Chill Pill. Here comes a Pill Shape 4GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive. It looks cool and really is very small about 2 inches long (I think !).

So you want to create reflection to an image but not so good at PhotoShop stuff, well there is an alternative: Reflection.js allows you to add reflections to images on your web pages. It uses unobtrusive javascript to keep your code clean.

It works in all the major browsers - Internet Explorer 5.5+, Mozilla FireFox 1.5+, Opera 9+ and Safari. On older browsers, it’ll degrade and your visitors won’t notice a thing. Best of all, it’s under 5KB.

Here are few cool examples:So, why use this javascript, here are few benefits (as per site)
- Fast and easy to implement. Just add class=”reflect” to the image.
- Don’t need to spend time in an image editor creating reflections.
- Works really well with forum avatars. Doesn’t require additional server work.
- It’s dead easy to change the opacity and height of the reflections.
- The reflections can respond to user action and above all its cool.

For more advanced stuff, like opacity changing with the user actions, there is reflect-o-matic tool. So get playing around and add a reflective logo… good idea right?

Now one can create rounded corners without using images or javascript with the help of spiffycorners. It is an online tool that provide easy way to generate HTML and CSS code for the box.
