This is such a cool-looking gallery – I haven’t had an opportunity to use this yet, but one of my potential upcoming projects may provide the perfect opportunity.

Social Media Widget minor CSS fix

Debbie — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 14:42:11 +0000

I like Social Media Widget, which I’ve recently started using. It has support for a large number of social media sites including FourSquare and Flickr. But something somewhere in one of the CSS files causes the icons to appear vertically rather than horizontally every time I upgrade this widget. To fix this, I just added [...]

CO / WY Creative directory launches

Debbie — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 16:20:41 +0000

I haven’t been posting much lately in my blog – mostly because I’ve been working hard to get a long-time personal project finished and out the door. Done! Creative Register launched about 10 days ago and is now closing on 30 listings. CR is a directory for (and of) creative professionals living and working in [...]

A WordPress new install timesaver

Debbie — Sun, 11 Jul 2010 15:10:40 +0000

I spent yesterday at WordCamp Boulder, a fun event for WordPress designers, developers and bloggers. That was my first WordCamp and well worth the very small entry fee. They had a genius bar where people could ask questions of WP experts. I spent about 2 minutes there and learned a trick that will probably save [...]

WordPress for Blackberry!

Debbie — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 15:17:17 +0000

Yesterday I cleaned up my Blackberry curve to get rid of the ‘insufficient memory’ error and moved all my images and videos to a new 16gb media card. It’s running much faster today and I installed the WordPress app. This is being posted from my BB using WordPress. What a great app – even better [...]

A simple way to find your absolute path

Debbie — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 17:18:38 +0000

Sometimes an application may ask for an absolute path to a folder/file in your hosting account. Finding that can be hard – you often have to dig around on your host’s site or contact them for that info. Here’s an easy way to do it: create a new .php file and upload this to the [...]

Adding album and gallery titles to NextGen Gallery in WordPress

Debbie — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 15:37:06 +0000

I use NextGen Gallery for WordPress often, I think it’s a fairly solid solution with a few quirks that I can work around. Today I’m working on a multilevel gallery for a local architect. I have a number of galleries within each album, and I wanted to show the album name and gallery name for [...]

Scrolling to anchor tags within scrollable divs

Debbie — Wed, 26 May 2010 18:30:52 +0000

This morning I’ve been hunting around for a solution to a client’s problem – getting internal links to work within a scrollable div. It was more difficult than I thought it might be. The problem was that when you click on a link to an anchor tag within the same page, the entire page wants [...]

Ajax-based file manager

Debbie — Tue, 11 May 2010 21:45:50 +0000

Today I installed and set up AjaXplorer for an illustrator client who needs to allow his own clients to easily upload and download documents from his FTP site. The install was very fast; setup was longer – it took me a little while to get exactly what I needed to be doing in setting up [...]

We spent a few days in the Albuquerque – Santa Fe region of New Mexico this week, including Petroglyph National Monument and Kasha-Ketuwe Tent Rocks National Monument. Here are a few shots from both.
