Fading Default.png when iPhone app starts

Michael Burford's Lame Blog: Fading Default.png when iPhone app starts
More iPhone code. I wanted to have the startup logo (Default.png) graphic fade into the first screen after the program starts. This is a much nicer transition than just letting the view switch instantly.

File Signatures Table

File Signatures
This table of file signatures (aka "magic numbers") is a work-in-progress. I have found little information on this in a single place, with the exception of the table in Forensic Computing: A Practitioner's Guide by T. Sammes & B. Jenkinson (Springer, 2000). Other useful and reasonably current sources are C.E. Codere's File Format site or the magic file commonly available with Linux systems. This table is still growing and contributions are welcome! Comments and queries can be sent to Gary Kessler at kumquat@sover.net.
