I realize that it has been quite a while since my last real post. I might need to do something about that.

I’d say something along the lines of welcome to 2010… Unfortunately, I think I missed that boat by a couple of weeks. In any event, here’s an updated calendar to keep you company: 2010 Calendar. With any luck, I might have a few more updates soon. Until then… Yeah.

New music in the collection:

• Lisa Germano – Magic Neighbor @ Amazon
• Hope Sandoval & The Warm Inventions – Through The Devil Softly @ Amazon
• Hope Sandoval & The Warm Inventions – Bavarian Fruit Bread @ Amazon

To the Douglas that sent me an e-mail on 11/3, I tried to reply but the message bounced. If there is a specific CorelDraw macro from my collection that you would like me to update for use in Draw 12, please let me know. When I have some time, I’ll see what I can do.

Keeping in line with the Draw Color Helper update, I’ve uploaded a new copy of Color Helper for Corel Photo-Paint 11, 12, X3 and X4. This build corrects an issue where the preview was incorrect for any color where R, G, or B values were less than 16.

• Color Helper 12.
• Color Helper 11.

I just uploaded Draw Color Helper v1.4.1 for CorelDRAW 11, 12, X3 and X4. Original object color mode is now preserved. I also corrected two bugs: the object color mode was changed when getting the color and the preview was incorrect where R, G, or B values were less than 16. (Thanks Juergen.)

I’ve updated the Resample script for Photo-Paint with some new features. The user can now specifically allow upsampling or downsampling independently for width and/or height. Also, I added the ability to change paper size, including specifying both background color and image alignment. Here are the links:

• Resample X4
• Resample X3
• Resample 12
• Resample 11

I just updated the music collection with some new entries. I think I found a few too many cheap cd’s over the holidays… Oh well, into the list they go. On that note, the list was growing too long for a single page so I’ve divided things up alphabetically. I’ve listed the new stuff here as usual and then again on the first page of the music collection. Do take a minute to check out the new Halou album because it really is quite good. More updates… oh… in the near future? Check back.
