Exploding URLs

I’m still a few more weeks away from re-launching the new jasongraphix, but I’ve been making great progress with Movable Type and learning lots of new tricks. One of my goals with the re-design was to make the site as dynamic as possible by breaking the design into independent php… 

It has begun!

I have been planning since early April to switch hosting providers, redesign my website in valid xhtml goodness, and migrate over to using movable type. Well over the last few days, those plans have started to come to fruition. I’ve got a new host with all the features I need… 

Sugary Goodness!

Or should that be fat of sugary goodness? As far as Ames and I are from the typical roles of domestic housewife and working husband, she is a culinary juggernaut (thanks Robby). With a chef for a mother, it’s easy to see where she gets it from, but she’s always… 

Frances’ Aftermath

After several days of windy, rainy, tropical storm conditions, it’s finally sunny outside. Yes, Frances has slowly meandered it’s way out of the state that it has been trudging through for so long. Amy and I really wanted to drive down to Vero Beach where we both grew up and… 

Taper-In Star

Update: I saw a lot of people getting 404s when being referred by Authentic Boredom so I set up this page so you all could find it instead of a search for: archive-ind.php?id=95 Couldn’t help working on this. Cameron Moll asked if there was an easy way to create a… 

Scourge of Arial

I really enjoy reading Mike Davidson’s blog. He tends to make time for things that most people wouldn’t think worthy to tinker with and comes out with a post that will knock your socks off. Moreover, he tends to do this in such a way that avoids the criticism that… 

Screen Grab Confab

Cameron Moll over at Authentic Boredom came up with a great idea yesterday when in his post, he invited his readers to post a 320×320 screen grab of whatever they were working on. With over 130 posted screenshots, I’d say everyone else thought it was a great idea too. I… 

Netscape 7.2

From Slashdot: “America Online has just released Netscape 7.2. Based on Mozilla 1.7, this latest version features better popup blocking, vCard support, an improved junk mail algorithm, better standards support, performance enhancements and several hundred other bug fixes.” So, I ask: “Why would anyone download a browser with a bad… 

AlphaMack

Although I have the Adobe Fontfolio and other professional font libraries at my disposal, I still sometimes go looking through 1001freefonts or the other free fonts sites for a particular typeface with that good ole “free-font feel”. This usually results in my downloading dozens of strange fonts that I will… 

Alpha Grip

My highly impressionable and impulsive co-worker Russ just preordered one of these things. After watching the typing demo video, I’m fighting off the urge to make an impulse buy myself. I’ve armed myself with the virtue that what’s mine is also my wife’s, and that I need get approval before…
