My Dad's been having computer issues lately and since I've always been able to fix whatever computer I have, he's had, Mom's had, or any of my friends or relatives have had, he asked me to write him up a How To Make This Shit Work When You're A Damn Engineer and STILL CAN'T DO IT Guide. LMFAO. No, he just said write him a "for dummies" manual. ( Read more... )

Basically this is both for my own reference on what add-ons in Mozilla Firefox do what, and also I thought I'd be all expandy and anal and explain everything in excruciating detail for those of you who'd also like to customize your Mozilla experience but don't know how. Also, can I just highly encourage everyone to get Mozilla Firefox? It's ( Read more... )

Okay, so I have a fic website, and with this other shit going down i'm really feeling the need to get this fucker up to date. But I'm so so so behind it's not even funny. Oh my god.

I've helped a few people over the past while when they can't see/hear a file. Either video or audio. And sicne I just typed this up for someone with all neat and tidy links, I thought I'd go ahead and make a post about it and label it as tutorial so now I can just point to it from now on ( Read more... )

Below I asked for icon help. And there are some things I already know. I've gotten some wonderful, wonderful links to help me out, but those aren't neccessarily for beginners.

dolimir_k had a question about tables, so I made a tutorial about tables. Tables are a little confusing, at least to m e. It took me SO long to learn tables, and it's hard for me to explain it. But, I shall try my best!

Before I go to bed (which I was going to do an hour ago, lol) I thought I'd post this. See, I'm a nerd. Those of you who know me probably know that about me. I'm proud of my nerddom. I bask in my dorkness. It's very fun, once you embrace it. But anyway. The thing is, I'm a positively anally retentive nerd when it comes to html, websites, and ( Read more... )

A while back I made a tutorial called Basic Guide to HTML. If you don't know how to write html code at all, this is for you. How to make links, how to post pictures, h ow to link pictures, how to code a webpage, etc. It's not that in depth, but... It pretty well covers all the majors. I also made a Basic Guide to Live Journal Specific Codes. ( Read more... )

Okay. Want to know how I got my style to look like this? Here's a tutorial for tweaking Opal. pamelajoy made it, and I tweaked it, and now I show you how to tweak it from my code. I have a headache now, but... hopefully I explained it well enough that YOU won't have one? LOL. If you have any questions, ask away. If you can't get it to work, ask away ( Read more... )
