Finding Inspiration in Music

When I make websites, business cards, logos, when I walk, workout, or relax, I listen to music. Music has always had a massive impact on my life; I’ve listened to music since the day I was born. But different genres suits different purposes. I’d like to give you insight in which music I listen to, and find inspiration in.

Changing the Size of the Avatar in WordPress 2.7

The default size of an avatar is 32x32px, which I think is a bit small. Therefore, I’d like to change it to 60x60px instead. But back in the good ol’ 2.6 days, and of course also earlier, changing the size of an avatar (the little picture shown e.g. in comments) was a pain. Now, with Wordpress 2.7 it’s easier than ever!

No More Invalid RSS

When I made this site, I spend hours figuring out why my feed wasn’t working. There are several examples in the Wordpress Support Forums telling, that feeds aren’t working because of a blank line in the beginning of the feed before the XML declaration. Some feedreaders have no problem with this, but Feedburner does. And Feedburner is very important.

Character Entity Chart PDF

When I make websites, I often need to know character and numeric entities. I remember the most common, such as & and ©, but what if I need other characters? I found a wonderful article over at Roselli.org, where Adrian Roselli has made a complete list of character and numeric entities. But I’d like to have those tables in a single PDF that I can view offline. So I made one, and you can download it completely free!

Installing Concrete5 locally on Mac OS X

If you don’t have your own webserver, or if you don’t want to waste your traffic on uploading your files everytime you make a small edit, you should consider running it all locally, and then when you’re done uploading it to your server.
