|
| 07:01:16 PM | calhydro | Robbie: GIMP Question
|
| 07:01:16 PM | calhydro | I discovered what looks like this great plug-in for GIMP to quickly create a tear-off image effect (compared to 25 steps to do same thing in Photoshop), the tread indicates that it is an older version that worked with GIMP 2.6 not GIMP 2.8 is there a way to get this plugin working or get the same effect in GIMP 2.8? http://blog.yjl.im/2013/01/gimp-
|
| 07:01:16 PM | calhydro | plugin-tear-off-for-screenshot.html
|
| 07:01:42 PM | ajamison5579 | Dennis_Kelley yep reside in Monroe and work for Meijer which is slowly becoming a horrible place to work (on a compensation/corporate relations standpoint)
|
| 07:02:45 PM | Dennis_Kelley | ajamison5579 i do not get to Manroe much, but I do travel around alot for my work
|
| 07:03:43 PM | ajamison5579 | Dennis_kelley if I had the money i would finish my Network Administration degree and then likely be working in Ann Arbor making alot more then what i am now
|
| 07:04:23 PM | Dennis_Kelley | there is alot of work in Ann Arbor. I live in Grand Blanc
|
| 07:04:40 PM | ajamison5579 | Verticle video we meet again !!!

|
| 07:06:35 PM | SashaD | You look very tall
|
| 07:06:37 PM | RobbieF | Tough to see the product
|
| 07:06:42 PM | ajamison5579 | so 1990's
|
| 07:07:03 PM | Dennis_Kelley | in the original it looked better
|
| 07:07:31 PM | ajamison5579 | Doctor Who is awesome
|
| 07:07:32 PM | Dennis_Kelley | there was alot of that there also!
|
| 07:07:47 PM | calhydro | $349 from da Vinci Junior
|
| 07:07:49 PM | ajamison5579 | so glad my buddy turned me on to that show
|
| 07:08:17 PM | calhydro | But it uses the expensive PLA
|
| 07:08:27 PM | Dennis_Kelley | Hope to do more conventions. I will get better at video!
|
| 07:08:38 PM | ajamison5579 | Robbief do you lease the entire building or just the upper floor
|
| 07:09:04 PM | Dennis_Kelley | ajamison5579 just a suite in the lower level
|
| 07:09:25 PM | calhydro | won't that hammer your streamer
|
| 07:09:43 PM | RobbieF | lower office space
|
| 07:11:04 PM | ajamison5579 | Robbief yours? you do not own dreamhost do you? Or by yours does she mean the affliliate your working with
|
| 07:11:13 PM | Dennis_Kelley | ajamison5579 - I will have to have a conversation with my videographer
|
| 07:11:36 PM | DJQuad | love to but i'm already at dreamhost. i moved there 2 years ago and couldn't be happier
|
| 07:12:05 PM | calhydro | if it exist it will be hacked
|
| 07:12:56 PM | Dennis_Kelley | if anyone is interested - www.penguicon.org/
|
| 07:13:54 PM | DJQuad | fun fact - wordpress runs on over 60% of all sites on the web
|
| 07:14:01 PM | ajamison5579 | I need to mess with linux more I have been so drained from work i usually use my Windows install to play games that or veg out on the couch infront of my tivo or ps4
|
| 07:15:25 PM | kyoshininja | Hi all...
|
| 07:16:07 PM | ajamison5579 | Robbief so would it be prudent then to take a Linux approach and make a second non-admin user to post with and only use the admin for admin stuff
|
| 07:16:30 PM | Dreamweaver909 | Yeah, ftp it's ancient...lol
|
| 07:17:01 PM | DJQuad | aj - yeah that's why he was talking about the editor role
|
| 07:17:06 PM | ABQTKY | Only two more months till spring in Barrie!!
|
| 07:17:25 PM | ajamison5579 | well shoot lol I ought to start doing that then
|
| 07:17:27 PM | ajamison5579 | lol
|
| 07:17:35 PM | ajamison5579 | when i actually do post a blog entry
|
| 07:18:06 PM | DJQuad | it's safe if the site uses ssl
|
| 07:18:19 PM | DJQuad | well, safer. heh
|
| 07:18:49 PM | calhydro | invert
|
| 07:19:05 PM | ajamison5579 | I do not use SSL to expensive for a mere blog and since there is no finacial transaction do not really need it'
|
| 07:19:09 PM | Dennis_Kelley | RobbieF you will have to move the show outside!
|
| 07:20:18 PM | SashaD | I do love the sun.... however it is not making things easy here tonight
|
| 07:20:30 PM | DJQuad | they're really cheap and worth it if you care about search engine traffic. google favors secure sites
|
| 07:20:54 PM | ajamison5579 | I am a geek we do not like the sun it reminds us there are things outside of technology
|
| 07:20:55 PM | ajamison5579 | lol
|
| 07:21:13 PM | Dreamweaver909 | The studio is so bright ya gotta wear shades......lol
|
| 07:21:24 PM | DJQuad | what's the sun?? lol
|
| 07:21:25 PM | SashaD | I'm getting a tan :)
|
| 07:21:52 PM | GoodGuy98 | Borrow a colored sheet from your wife -- If she has one
|
| 07:22:02 PM | fking | lol
|
| 07:22:03 PM | SashaD | I remember we didn't have this problem when the studio was in Robbie's basement
|
| 07:22:04 PM | GoodGuy98 | block the windows
|
| 07:22:09 PM | Dreamweaver909 | All you need is a drink and you'll think you are at the beach, Sasha.
|
| 07:23:31 PM | spiceJax | Seek Help...
|
| 07:24:54 PM | SashaD | A great idea Dreamweaver!
|
| 07:25:18 PM | ajamison5579 | since we are on the subject of wordpress, does anyone know of any cool free responsive themes for wordpress?
|
| 07:26:22 PM | napa_polarbear | hi all
|
| 07:26:58 PM | DJQuad | aj - there are a ton in the wordpress directory, but i often start with 2015
|
| 07:27:30 PM | calhydro | super nova
|
| 07:27:41 PM | ajamison5579 | I have a cool one that Chris Pirillo used to manage (had to modify it to work with the new version of wordpress) but its not Responsive
|
| 07:27:54 PM | ajamison5579 | and he does not appear to be updating it anytime soon
|
| 07:28:17 PM | Dennis_Kelley | RobbieF had to get a new studio!
|
| 07:28:41 PM | DJQuad | aj - http://colorlib.com/wp/free-wordpress-themes/
|
| 07:30:48 PM | DJQuad | be really careful with free themes because they often have no support. consider a commercial one like enfold or avada
|
| 07:30:58 PM | GWG | ajamison5579: _s is nice
|
| 07:31:22 PM | ajamison5579 | _s ?
|
| 07:31:49 PM | DJQuad | http://underscores.me
|
| 07:31:51 PM | GWG | ajamison5579: Pronounces underscores
|
| 07:32:52 PM | ajamison5579 | ah ok
|
| 07:36:32 PM | ajamison5579 | so that basicaly just makes a framework for the theme? I am confused lol
|
| 07:36:41 PM | GWG | ajamison5579: It's a starter theme
|
| 07:38:00 PM | ajamison5579 | gwg so its ment to be built upon
|
| 07:38:13 PM | GWG | ajamison5579: Yes. I've built on it
|
| 07:38:44 PM | ajamison5579 | is there documentation on how to modify it
|
| 07:39:02 PM | Dreamweaver909 | lol
|
| 07:39:37 PM | DJQuad | it's a framework like genesis. i think he just wants a theme itself without having to do a ton of modding
|
| 07:39:44 PM | ajamison5579 | Starwars/Star Trek crossover
|
| 07:40:38 PM | ajamison5579 | djquad its a cool think to play with but yeah i just need one to make my personal blog mobile friendly hence the responsiveness thing. I do not need something overly fancy
|
| 07:40:45 PM | ajamison5579 | but do not like the stupid default theme
|
| 07:41:47 PM | Dreamweaver909 | savage.....????
|
| 07:41:55 PM | DJQuad | for my personal blog i use enfold which is $58. http://themeforest.net/item/enfold-responsive-multipurpose-theme/4519990
|
| 07:42:10 PM | GWG | I worry about anything on themeforest
|
| 07:42:18 PM | GWG | Why not start with the WordPress theme directory?
|
| 07:42:24 PM | GWG | Thousands of free themes
|
| 07:43:05 PM | ajamison5579 | gwg i will but just thought i would ask if anyone had any suggestions
|
| 07:43:33 PM | GWG | ajamison5579: I couldn't find any I liked, so I built my own
|
| 07:43:59 PM | ajamison5579 | my coding skills are still in the beginer stage so building my own would be hard
|
| 07:44:09 PM | DJQuad | the top selling themes are frameworks but don't need a lot of coding knowledge. i stay away from free ones since they rarely provide support
|
| 07:45:00 PM | GWG | ajamison5579: I used it to teach myself
|
| 07:45:07 PM | ajamison5579 | the theme i am using now I really like but as i mentioned Chris stopped managing it
|
| 07:45:23 PM | ajamison5579 | so i ethier have to stay not mobile friendly or switch themes
|
| 07:45:27 PM | DJQuad | structured query language ;)
|
| 07:49:48 PM | SashaD | Does everyone have blogs I should be reading?
|
| 07:52:48 PM | GWG | SashaD: Can I make a recommendation?
|
| 07:53:04 PM | GWG | You could join the movement I'm involved in
|
| 07:53:56 PM | SashaD | Yes :)... what is it?
|
| 07:54:38 PM | GWG | SashaD: http://indiewebcamp.com
|
| 07:55:05 PM | Taylor_Karras | Wait, there are new shows on Category5?
|
| 07:55:14 PM | Taylor_Karras | Looks like you're growing into a real podcasting network :)
|
| 07:55:29 PM | DJQuad | indeed taylor
|
| 07:56:28 PM | GWG | Maybe I should affiliate with Category 5 over that Tech Podcast Network.
|
| 07:57:05 PM | Taylor_Karras | Where can I find these new shows?
|
| 07:57:17 PM | Dreamweaver909 | yes

|
| 08:01:15 PM | DJQuad | don't learn programming unless you want to go insane. lol
|
| 08:01:34 PM | Garbee | DJQuad: You can stay sane.
|
| 08:01:47 PM | Garbee | Just need to already be insane previous to learning programming.
|
| 08:01:56 PM | Whiskey_Zero | Another good show Robbie & Sasha, see you next week.
|
