For you blog owners:

  1. The header: This is the most definitive area of your blog/website… paying significant attention to this area and creatively creating a header area that effectively introduces the essence of your blog more often than not leads to a generally beautiful blog/website.  Simplicity is recommended.
  2. Uniform sized images: The blog pages are characterized with lists of articles with accompanying images. Having uniformly sized images goes a long way in enhancing the general look and feel of the interface.
  3. Clutter: Use a well spaced layout. Less Clutter = More Appeal. Nobody likes having to filter through tones of info to figure out what your blog/website is about. Read More »

Do you have a facebook page, group or event? If yes… im sure at one time or another you’ve wondered how to invite all your friends with just 1 click instead of having to select them all individually… the thought of  doing that can be quite horrific especially when you have thousands of friends to invite. wonder why facebook didnt just create a “select all” button for the invitations.

well i was wondering the same and i set out to look for a solution. I have a favourite quote “Google is your friend”… and YES Google didnt let me down on this quest. Found a little script that does the magic!

Here’s how it works:

Open the page, group or event invitation window and instead of clicking individual thumbnails of your friends… insert the following code in the address bar:…

“javascript:elms=document.getElementById('friends').getElementsByTagName('li');for(var fid in elms){if(typeof elms[fid] === 'object'){fs.click(elms[fid]);}}"

…(without the quotes of course)..and press enter!

wow!… it works all contacts selected :)

Now CLICK INVITE!

Meanwhile you can suggest the 2digits facebook page to your friends that way in just one easy click :)

1. Alien skin: eye candy impact (perspective shadow) – Fireworks & Photoshop

The guys at alien skin have loads of design plugins that come in handy… but by far the most practical & useful (to me at least) is the PERSPECTIVE SHADOW! it just adds a lovely touch of depth and perspective especially when object is placed in front of a carefully measured gradient and some simulation of light.

Example: The shadow on the silhouette

The plugin comes loaded with lots of options to control the shadow anyway you want! Read More »
