January 09: Mr.C + web tricks + the Opera browser
(Arn's dad was in Baguio last week so I'm munching away on chocolate flakes pasalubong as I type this entry. Thanks, dad!)
The album Arnold and I designed for Mr. Ryan Cayabyab is out! You can see the entire package here.
*** I'm currently working on two website projects and I thought I'd take a blog break to share with you some nifty web tricks I ran across during my scripts-hunting sprees:
ï Where has that browser been? ï Flying clickable GIFs ï Webpage transitions ï Script-generators ï Robot exclusion
*** This article plus Susan's endorsement has got me all curious about the Opera browser's supposed lightning speed page loading time. I've already downloaded it but am having second thoughts about installing -- a system extension-related crash some months ago has made me wary of freeware. Ahoy, fellow Mac users?

Hi there -
Opera works fine on my Mac in both classic and OS X... I think it's pretty ugly looking, but it IS very fast and its standard compliance is very good. My main complaint is that they're concept of what is a "pixel" when it comes to CSS font- sizing is a bit wonky, so text tends to look a bit small...
But, it's not too shabby. Oh, and the ads have to go. Nothing worse than continuing to flog a dead horse...
