I’d like to know how many visitors (and customers of iMap/iWebExpander) are using Leopard (Mac OS 10.5)! This is important to me for making new and enhancing my existing applications. The reason for that is that the Leopard Dev Tools offer so many new features, that I would just like to take advantage of – but if not to many are using Leopard it would be a waste of time.
So just vote here and let me know on what version of Mac OS X you are on:

Thanks!

As I am still working on iTweak, I have finally reached the very end of releasing it. There are only two more bugs and features to complete and then this app will go out in the world.
One of the great new features of iTweak is the ability to create a PHP contact form for your iWeb site. I have been creating a very good one and I am close to actually using that one.
Take a look at the demo here.
Any recommendations and ideas are gladly heard! This would be the basic outcome of the form if you use iTweak. You can use the comments below to tell me how you like/dislike it.
Thanks and happy easter!

If you rip your own DVDs into iTunes, then you probably want to have some stunning artwork to go with it. The problem with the standard Google-found posters is that they are low quality, not the right aspect ration and are filled with unnecessary text. iTunes posters aren’t like that!
Here is a list of good and qualitative resources:
- The best option for movie covers is a huge Macrumors thread which shares all sorts of movie covers in the full iTunes quality. Lovely! Check it out here. This iPodTouchFans forums post has some posters as well.
- Well, one, there is this website called Josh’s Album Art Grabber. You simply place the URL of the album you want and the machine get’s the cover. Sadly enough, movie covers end up very small.
Though, for songs, this is a great resource and way better than those applications where you have to pay for them to grab images from Google.
- Raffael (see below) recommended a german website. They, Moviemaze, have a huge database of all movie posters and wallpapers. If you can’t find your movies with the Macrumors thread, then check this place out.
Yesterday I was looking through Cabel Sasser’s archives of his blog. He is the developer behind Coda and co-founder of Panic, a great software company.
In his 2007 Cabel Yay! Awards, I found that he mentioned a really addicting game; Peggle. He gave me a drug:

Boy! I can tell, this game is sooooo fricken addictive. Of course, the best part is the “Extreme Fever” in which I think, the 9th symphony of Beethoven runs. Oh god – I love this game. Sadly, the game is through after about 75 levels, which you get done in about a week. Still, I suggest you try it out. There is a free version of the game available at the PopCap website.

Okay, I have finally put together a close-to-working version of iTweak. It does nearly everything but there are still, some annoying bugs that I want to fix. That’s why I am also sending out a private beta to certain testers so they can really give me some feedback.
It is a private beta because I do not want to send out a not-fully working version and then get zillions of support mails. Sorry about that.
BTW – All of those who gave iWebExpander up cause of the Timeout error, that error is now fixed! YAY!
Enjoy (at least those invited to the beta)!
Anyone who feels that they should be part of the beta, drop me a mail and I’d be willing to send you the beta. Though, this is not to get the next version, this is for me getting feedback! I will only send the beta to those of which I feel they can provide that feedback and not just tell me “this is not working but I love iTweak.”
Lastly, to really get you watering, here are some screenshots:
