Re: The official thread for any and all discussion related to Apple Macs.

There's one Mac software that I've tried and loved it. Comic Life is a software to create comic strips.

It's very easy. Just spend some 5 minutes and you'll know what you can do with it.

Some of the things I've created with it: (click for the full image)

They have recently released the Widows version (Beta). Try it out, cool app.

YAY! You are an Apple fan and a Pixar fan as well. Cool! Our interests match. I've got every Pixar movie in high definition (except A Bug's Life, which is DVD quality). Ratatouille will also soon be added to the collection. :D

Steve once said, "Apple is the most creatively advanced technical company; Pixar is the most technically advanced creative company." :D

I didn't know that.

Yeah. :D

Who wouldn't like Pixar studios? Did ya see Ratatouille? I thought only Monsters, Inc. was better than that movie. It's matter of time before I lay my hands on the 720p animation movies. :twisted:

For those who did not know, Comic Life is a paid third party application that Apple bundles on all Macs. And it is not some crap trailware either. You get the whole thing.

Yes, I did. Awesome; awesome movie. I love it how the guys at Pixar can take impossible stories and make them seem believable. Remy walks on two feet because he does not want to dirty his paws so that he does not have to keep washing them again and again before eating. Genius! :D

I was seeing Apple's "Back to School" promo page on their UK website. They have worded it brilliantly:

College students, buy a Mac and get a free iPod Nano.

Read up. Rock on.

So much for silence.

Finally, an equation you'll Remember.

Lab tested. Parent approved.

Education has its rewards.

Suddenly revision seems like fun.

One more reason to avoid the Real world.


I love the second one in particular. "So much for silence." LOL!

Fake Steve posted something awesome today:
If you're trying to decide whether to buy our products based on how much they cost -- if you're sitting down comparing an iMac to a comparably equipped Dell to see which one costs more -- well, let me just say this: You should not be buying our products. You don't get it. You don't understand us. And you won't be happy. Go away. Go buy from someone else. Truly, you'll be better off, and so will we. There. I said it.
Like I said - awesome! :D

Thank you! :)

I'm now trying to find a way to integrate Wordpress with that theme. Pretty damn difficult.

1 suggestion - change the default text font :)

You should, leave out the site and the blog. *www.aryayush.com/Aayush_Arya/Blog/Blog.html should be like *www.aryayush.com/blog/

Re: The official thread for any and all discussion related to Apple Macs.

iMav is right. Please change the font to something sans-serif.

One more thing. iWeb changes any non standard font into a PNG. While this may lead to the site looking better, it adds a whole lot in terms of download time. And for people like me that is a nightmare.

Now some of the PNGs are rectangular with no transparent pixels. Those can easily be changed to JPGs (the images as well as the link to the images)

Thanks for checking it out and the constructive criticism. Which font are you referring to?

Someone please suggest me a good Wordpress theme that goes with my website's look...

Whatever little there is to know about me, I’ve tried to accommodate it in this comfy place. You’ll get to know more about me, peek at all the pictures of me frolicking around with my friends and family, know all the weird stuff that happens to me on a regular basis and gain a deep insight into how a mastermind works.


Please click on the links in the bar at the top and browse around.


P.S. - It is still a work in progress...

I guess I'll ultimately have to ditch the whole idea of using iWeb. :(

No, I wouldn't even if I had coded it myself. It is a personal blog.

What! Why, in the name of Holy Mother of Merlin, would I want to do that! I would have put it there even if it hadn't been there by default; even if I hadn't made the site in iWeb. That is a badge of superiority. :p

I would recommend Rapidweaver to you. It has much more control over the website, including direct HTML and CSS manipulation (if you want to) while keeping in with simplicity. iWeb is not recommended for an experienced user like you...
