Photoshop CS4 Has Sliders… Lots of Sliders…
Comments OffYou would expect from a high-priced product with a vast user base to get things right. Sadly, it appears Photoshop CS 4 has issues.
For reasons known only to Adobe, Photoshop has lots of different types of sliders. A good selection of those are documented here, along with a few other gripes over the software from [...]
Free Music in Vast Quantities is Hard to Comprehend. Help?
Comments OffYou know, it’s a really quite strange thing to have problems with. As you know, thanks to that Coca Cola contest, I have become the owner of a brand new 80GB video iPod (well, technically 2, but I sold the second one for a hefty sum of notes). And as part and parcel to the [...]

Blogging with ecto
Comments OffSo. You’re writing away on the perfect blog post in your friendly neighborhood browser window, and suddenly the internet connection dies on you just before you hit submit. You get the Page Can’t Be Displayed error, and so you quickly hit the Back icon to revive your work. Sadly, in quite a few cases, it [...]
VirtueDesktops + Macbook = Smackbook
Comments OffLadies and Gentlemen, we now have a productive excuse to hit our computers. The Macbook has a weird motion sensor inside it, supposedly for detecting a fall and bracing the moving parts for impact. VirtueDesktops uses and abuses this feature, allowing you to change the virtual desktop you’re using without having to select some tiny [...]
