Dennis

What I noticed after some of my latest blog posts where I first added one of my photos to the empty editor before I started to write anything, is that the photos that me or my family members shot, inspire me pretty much to start tell a story. I mean photos give me something to write about and this works so well, that I do this since some time now. Even if I had no idea before I started to write, the photo will inspire me instantly and I guess the photos give me something to write about because it … Continue reading Creative Writing Ideas And Blog Inspiration: Photos Will Give You Something To Write About

Spam Comments in the WordPress Dashboard… Akismet works pretty great!

Dennis

Today I was bored and thought I browse in the dashboard of my blog. I also browsed the section where you can find the comments which wasn´t approved by the comment spam filter called Akismet. If you host your blog for free on WordPress.com then you anyway have the tool installed. I am not sure how it is if you have hosted and installed WordPress on your own webserver. I guess you must install the tool then. I didn´t research and I also didn´t notice the Tool when I installed the WordPress CMS on my uncle’s webserver.

Most of them and me thought that these Playstation and Xbox Games are somewhat more soft-boiled then PC Games. I also noticed that many People start to hate the Cross-platform Engines as it often feels spongily in the Gameplay. This is called “Character … Continue reading Crysis 3 – CryEngine 3 Tech Trailer released and my Thoughts about Cross-platform Games

Windows 8 release on 26th October but I dont care about this OS which is looking like a Phone App.

Dennis

Alt and Tab found out that Microsoft wants to release Windows 8 on 26th October. I never was so much uninteressted in a new and upcoming Windows Release. Tastes differ. Tastes and Feelings are subjective. But if you ask me, I defenetly will sticking with Windows 7. The whole new Desktop Design of Windows 8 is in my subjective Opinion pretty ugly. You can say I am not a big fan of this new Trend “Everything has to look like a Mobile Phone App”. Indeed I am also not a big fan of Changes. But what pissing me most off … Continue reading Windows 8 release on 26th October but I dont care about this OS which is looking like a Phone App.

There is often the problem that you took tons of photos you want to use anywhere, for example online but the size of all your photos are too big.

In this tutorial I will explain you how batch renaming and batch resizing of … Continue reading Tutorial: Converting, Batch Rename and Batch Resize your Photos with IrfanView
