Just feel like tuning up your dull-looking images? Well there’s a lot of ways to go about doing so. To begin with you should have a good image editor. Personally I recommend taking a look at the various products found at Adobe’s website.

Earlier today I downloaded an extra filter to my beloved image editor, Photoshop (CS2), made by Pixelpaper. It didn’t take me long to create a very cool looking image. How to do what I just did doesn’t need more than a few minutes of your time and some playing around with your mouse. The only thing worth mentioning is the structure effect which is found when selecting the “surface tab” and clicking “Bumpmap” rather than the more obvious “Surface” button…

In just a few days I’ll upload the latest version of my Content Management System (WCMS) so you can click around and get a feeling of what it’s all about. Some screen shots from the administration panel will follow soon after.

Unlike a lot of the big companies I’ll actually be displaying a stable release meant for production environments, rather than the typical “Beta version this build that”.

Please note! The WCMS’ newsletter module will replace all other newsletters running on evaria.com and its sub-domains, simply to get a more up-to-date, united and SPAM free module. I also believe the newsletter thing is soon a thing in the past, as Feeds do this job much more efficiently, not to say faster. Therefore I might also consider removing this module, but for now I’ll just gather it all in one place.

WCMS frontend (what the normal visitor will see) is opened in a new window when you click this sentence.

Please feel free to add comments about bugs (if you find any), security issues (shouldn’t be any – knock on wood), requests or any other question you might have.

The new Dell XPS M2010 looks different from other laptops, and has a design and appearance which I’ve never seen before. YES IT’S HUGE, but then again it’s also portable. If you’re not looking to buy a PC mainly for travelling, this looks like a very nice option for your home office. A huge screen (20,1″) and a detachable keyboard makes this an attractive choice for both coding, office tasks and watching your favourite DVD’s.

The components are of the highest standards, so when it comes to performance it will most likely beat your desktop. When closed it really doesn’t take up much space, and with built-in WLAN you don’t really need more than the power cable connected.
