xplanetFX: Template Special – Halloween!

Sonntag, den 30. Oktober 2011

For the ones who love to observe this strange happening born in Ireland and borrowed by the U.S. guys – here it is: our planet as a stupid looking pumpkin with a silly plug in his head orbited by a small – erm… basketball? Whatever. Have a good time while celebrating!

Please note: this template will only be available for a couple of days – like the Christmas Special.

Damn.. I’ve forgotten to mention some of the original artists of the base images in these screenshots – sorry for that! The original templates and the template information on the website of course do have the copyleft information included.

Ardour Dark Template

Mittwoch, den 26. Oktober 2011

Debian Weezy is installed and Calf and Ardour are compiled – the studio seems online again. As long as I use Ardour the dark blueish theme with the industrial grey faders was biting my eyes. So I decided to mod the original dark Ardour UI templateb a bit, the result can be downloaded here.

You have to determine where Ardour is installed, usually in /usr or /usr/local.

sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf ardour_dark_ui.tar.gz

or

sudo tar -C /usr -xzf ardour_dark_ui.tar.gz

ImageMagick support f***ing rocks!!1

Montag, den 24. Oktober 2011

Just want to let the world know about the unbelievable great support of the ImageMagick devs/supporters/community. I had a mind-breaking problem with a requested style [1, 2] for the eschaton template I needed a solution for. And I think just reading my support request takes enough time one could better masturbate, have a beer or do something more satisfying than trying to get in this big pile of shit.

But the guys – especially Anthony – stayed on line and replied partially within two hours – so I think it’s time for promoting my respect and my thankfulness.

Finally a little warning for the minors: don’t try this at home with your commercial dealer/provider.
