Program or Major Affiliate notices:
FireFox really used to be my favorite browser. Then Chrome was born, and it was fast, sleek, simple. In the passing years, I think Chrome has become over bloated though. Firefox now performs better, and doesn't take so much computer resources. Who knows why chrome has gotten so fat... People are complaining about it a lot, and google doesn't seem to care. I've also got a MacBook Pro, on which Safari works the best. Especially for watching web videos. Chrome and Flash on a Mac do not get along. Google also has yet to address that issue. Which leads to Safari and Firefox being the best. Strange world.
- Free Image Editing/Creation ProgramPaint.Net is possibly the best FREE computer program to ever have come across my path! It's tools and extensions have been amazing to me with both my photo editing, and random photo creations. Professionals that use Photoshop might complain, bicker and rip your head off. And thats only because they pay hundreds of dollars for what they have; While, the average to above average computer users, are getting many of the same basic tools free of charge. Weather you like my website layout or not, I created my layout images with paint.net. For the simple design I was going for, Paint.net was an excellent tool. For the pity of me, I know it is capable of so much more.
- Myspace.comOk, while Myspace.com may be all but extinct, I remember the time it was the most popular social media site. Most notably, that's when customized profile designs were a popular thing. I was working on my own version of a profile generator. If MySpace had stuck around, I might have succeeded in making some money off of it too. My space was kind of simple, but did allow you to include CSS code in your profile. This meant you had full control over changing the looks and appearances of your profile. I had created some pretty wicked profiles myself. But not that many people know how to code, which lead to a lot of people turning to MySpace style generators created all across the web. This also brought virus to some peoples pages, copy and pasting code that had malicious scripts in it, undetectable to the unlearned eye. This copy paste method also made it hard to update your information if you chose to, or if you wanted to switch styles, it was difficult. With my generator, users would save their desired profile information to an account created on my website, then they could click through my database of MySpace styles, get a live preview of what their actual MySpace would look like with that style, then be given the code to copy and paste into their MySpace profile. Since their information was on their account of my own website, it would make switching styles or updating information easy. BUT, Facebook became the dominating social media site of choice. MySpace was pushed into the dark, and has since remodeled their website to be more of a music sharing site. No more custom profiles :(
