Looking for Cover Art for iTunes Movies?

A long time ago I suggested three sources for finding proper album art for movies. There is now a new website that provides the original iTunes Movie Artwork for nearly all movies. The Valkae blog is truly a simple and great place to find Apple’s stunning iTunes Movie covers.


How to detect an iPhone visitor

Published on February 23, 2010 in Tutorials and iWeb. 0 Comments

AllAboutiWeb not only has an article on how to make your iWeb site look good on an iPhone or iPod Touch, it has recently published a tutorial that allows you to detect if you have a visitor from one of Apple’s mobile devices.

It is quite useful to detect visitors from a mobile device because that allows you to redirect them to a modified website suited for smaller screens.

It actually isn’t very hard – here’s how:

Removal of Comment Forms

Published on October 24, 2009 in Nothing Important. 0 Comments Tags: , .

I have decided to remove the ability to add comments underneath tutorial posts. The basic reasons for this are:

  • Most comments are spam. Although I have Akismet installed, quite a lot of spam comes through. I am, quite frankly, tired of sorting through the spam.
  • Most comments are questions regarding the respective tutorial. I try to reply to most of the comments, but by adding more and more comments, everything becomes a huge mess. The number of comments shown on the page is beyond an amount someone can coordinate through.

It hurts to loose the interactivity between me and the viewers, but it is such a relief to no longer have to fight the spam.

Questions regarding tutorials can be posted in the Apple Discussion forums. See you there!

  • Meta-Tags are being added 2x as fast with less errors.

We are expecting to push this update out to everyone by October 19th.

Follow me on Twitter

I have recently (actually already a long while ago) joined Twitter and so I invite you all to follow me. Twitter is actually the reason of why this blog hasn’t been receiving any kind of new content. It just takes to incredibly long to post something. Twitter and Tumblr (my Tumbelog) are just more appropriate for lazy people like me. I hope to see you on Twitter and Tumblr.
