Frankly SpeakingNews and commentary by Frank McPherson(Untitled)- April 26, 2003 I see that the Detroit Lions went ahead and drafted Charles Rogers. They didn't have much of a choice really, because they need a big play receiver to compliment Joey Harrington. It will be interesting to see whether Rogers can have a big impact in his rookie season.http://radio.weblogs.com/0100593/2003/04/26.html#a376 (Untitled)- April 26, 2003 The reason why I ended up using iDVD is that iPhoto doesn't provide a way to create a CD slideshow from a photo album. iPhoto provides a way to create slide shows complete with background music, so I don't understand why Apple doesn't provide an easy way to create a slideshow CD from that album.http://radio.weblogs.com/0100593/2003/04/26.html#a375 (Untitled)- April 26, 2003 I procrastinated this afternoon from working on the book to play with iDVD. I put together a nice slide show of pictures that Ruth and I took when we were in Colorado for Christmas. The software is pretty easy to figure out, and it's not too difficult to put together a nice looking DVD. One thing that I wish it would let me do, however, is select multiple songs from iTunes to play on the sound track for a slideshow. I look forward to playing more with this program.http://radio.weblogs.com/0100593/2003/04/26.html#a374 Use LaunchBar to Maximize Safari Windows- April 21, 2003 I've figured out how to invoke the Safari Maximize Window script using Launchbar. The trick is to open the script and then save it as an application. Force Launchbar to re-scan the the folder where you saved the script, and then enter an abbreviation. (My scripts folder is in my personal library folder, so I had to add that to Launchbar's preferences before it would scan.)http://radio.weblogs.com/0100593/2003/04/21.html#a372 (Untitled)- April 19, 2003 One of the things I really want to play around with in Mac OS X is AppleScript. Mike Wendland provides a link to a bunch of AppleScripts that work with Safari. I am sure the one that I will use the most is the script that maximizes all Safari windows to the full size of the screen. One of the things that irritates me about Mac OS X is that it doesn't really have such a maximize function like Windows. Instead the "green button" opens a window to the largest size you ever had. So if you only ever.http://radio.weblogs.com/0100593/2003/04/19.html#a371 |
