Gifting more Flickr Pro Accounts

Sunday, January 28th, 2007 - 12:39 am

I was once able to gift 2 Flickr Pro accounts. As an aftermath, I still receive emails, comments asking me for more pro accounts. I’m sorry, I no longer have any!

However, I have been thinking of Gifting more Flickr Pro Accounts. This came to me ever since I bought couple of Flickr Pro Account for total strangers. I remember even gifting one hugely popular Blogger, Industry Expert after seeing that he is not a Flickr Pro user. He didn’t even bother to reciprocate with a simple “Thanks”.

Watch your steps before you upgrade to Wordpress 2.1

Tuesday, January 23rd, 2007 - 3:57 pm

I ran into issues while trying to upgrade a Wordpress 2.0.7 installation to the new Wordpress 2.1 release. I was upgrading my Wordpress Labs Install Module and thus there was no damage done. My test WP install stalled; thus I decided to write this article as a warning to those upgrading to Wordpress 2.1.

So, here is a mild reminder when you upgrade your Wordpress Install to the Latest Release (they have the Zip version too). This article assumes that you have a 2.0.x version of Wordpress already installed; if you’re looking for a new installation or the official Wordpress installation guide, please read the Wordpress Docs.

Download free fonts and Dingbats

Tuesday, January 16th, 2007 - 6:48 am

A huge collection of Commercial, Free Fonts complete with a good set of Free Dingbats are on this site for you to Download. It is a free front archive but with a twist - it’s organized as a commercial font foundry with plenty of interactive features. There are over 8,000 free fonts and dingbats for the Mac and the PC.

This article is a paid article review sponsored by RevieMe. However, I’d have written about this resource for great fonts if I found it earlier to ReviewMe. If you have feedbacks, please comment or mail me directly. That will help me decide if I should do ReviewMe in future or not.
