If everything goes right I will soon be the proud owner of a gmail account. How did I come by this? Am I an influential blogger who knows people who can send out the invites? Nope, I’m a lame loser who had to buy one on eBay.
But what a buy! The prices are [...]
After trying to come up with my own album control I’ve found a free .NET Gallery out there that does everything (and more) that I wanted mine to do. It is called nGallery and I so far give it two solid thumbs up.
There is a lot of files involved in the skining process, [...]
I’m going to try out a new Plugin for Word Press called Staticize. Done by Bill Zeller of cowpimp.com, the plugin will automatically generate a static file the first time a page is accessed.
From my non scientific observation of the plugin it seems to be doing a great job. There [...]
What a great WSYSIG editor for the blogging world. Bloggar allows you to work with the posts in your blog from a desktop application. The best part about this for me is the ability to use keyboard shortcuts to insert links. No more typing <a>’s for me!
Another nice feature is the [...]
The Website has a new Look. Combined with Word Press I think that it looks pretty good! Next thing on the to do list is adding some static pages about us.
I haven’t seen any really good tutorials that involve a static page, but it seems the best idea that people have come up with [...]
So I’ve moved over to using WordPress as my site management tool. So far I am very impressed by the speed of the setup. It only took a couple of minutes and I was up and running with the new site. Importing my old entries was a snap, and the comment editing [...]
When I interviewed at the U for Medical Informatics, the interviewer asked me “What’s the most useless program you’ve ever done?”. Well at first I thought he meant school projects, and of course they’re are a lot of those. But he then narrowed it to personal projects. For me, it’s probably the picture section on [...]
The album section is getting another facelift. I’ve enlarged all of the thumbnails to be a strict 100×100 across the board. This doesn’t always work for the representation of the image, but overall it is a good look. I’ve also created all the thumbnails in color and in black and white, which lets me do [...]
ASP.net is getting to be a lot cooler as I find out more about what I can do. I’m now dynamically creating the text headers for each blog entry. And it was really simple to do. Here’s how it’s done.
SizeF mySize;
Bitmap imageForText;
Font drawFont = new Font(“AvantGarde BK BT”,16,FontStyle.Bold);
imageForText [...]
The MTC bought Jeff Zeldman’s book about Designing with Web Standards. I’m just barely getting into it, but I am more and more convinced that standards are the way to go. The table layouts were so confusing for me. For the Referral Manager site I had to print out the page to [...]
