Corel Photo-Paint 9 is here!

I’m just in the middle of the download of Corel Photo-Paint 9. I’m glad to see, that Corel finally releases something useful for Linux, instead of trying to emulate Windows under Linux. I’ve seen and tried their Linux OS, but I didn’t like it. It tried to hard to turn the Linux-filesystem into a filesystem that Windows-users would find familiar. Although they made a great attempt the illusion wasn’t perfect.

The download has finished — I’ll be back with more information later.

GymNet

GymNet The domain for GymNet has now been set up!

I’ve been working on the menu the last couple of days — I really like how the images pop up when you point at the links. It’s done with simple JavaScript, but the effect is pretty cool. The JavaScript is generated dynamically by PHP. When you mix server-side PHP scripting with client-side JavaScript you get a very powerful mixture.

GIMPS is working again!

My GIMPS-section has been out-of-order for quite a while, but has now been fixed.

You’ll get a forecast for the next two years — when your team advance the ranking is written in blue, and when your team falls back the ranking is written in red.

I hope you can use it — please don’t hesitate to send me feedback! I would love to hear you comments, and ideas for improvements.

Work has begun on Gymnet

GymNet I’m currently working on a new Danish website called Gymnet. So far I’ve had the pleasure of implementing the design according to the graphics-people’s wishes. That’s hopefully something that only needs to be done once :-)

Later we’ll make all sorts of fancy features in PHP. But it’s still under construction (we began this Monday), so don’t expect too much here in the beginning.

Ahh — transparent Eterms

I’ve made my Eterms transparent, so they show the background through. But the background that the Eterms show is the one set by enlightenment, and that’s not visible thanks to efm that covers the desktop.

So, what is there to do? Simple, you just set the background in enlightenment to the same as the one in efm — problem solved.

First you’ll need the theme for Eterm, put this in your $HOME/.Eterm/themes/Eterm. Now your Eterms should start up transparent.
