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 X4.
• Color Helper X3.
• 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.

New music in the collection:

• Halou – Halou @ Halou.com
• Bif Naked – I Bificus @ Amazon
• Oingo Boingo – Dead Man’s Party @ Amazon
• Cyndi Lauper – The Essential Cyndi Lauper @ Amazon
• Office Space: Motion Picture Soundtrack @ Amazon

It’s a new year and, with any luck, it will be a good one. Don’t worry, I’ll keep my fingers crossed. I’d like to try to make some changes to the site, but I’m not really sure where to begin. There are lots of areas that could use a little dusting. That said, if you would like to see me update any specific content, feel free to ask via the contact form linked throughout this site. Otherwise, any updates will happen (or not) if I find myself sufficiently motivated and otherwise unoccupied. (Maybe you should keep your fingers crossed too?)

; )

Well, to kick off the new year, I usually make myself a new calendar. I’ve been uploading these to the site for the past few, but generally haven’t given out links. If you’re looking for a really low budget calendar, have at it… 2009 Calendar. Oh yeah, have a happy new year.
