Mother's Day

Monday, May 11, 2009


Did you your mother have a good mother's day?
It was a day to show our appreciation for all the spankings and crap taking she did for us...

With all the chores she handles, the lectures about school(for I am Asian) she preaches, and the meals she cooks, the least I can do is to ease some of that burden.






Someone's always missing for the group shot.


Best mom. ever.
Happy Mother's Day to all the moms.

CNGNOT

Saturday, May 9, 2009


It's been a while since I last posted any CNGNOT photos. Weird thing I...

discover when I took these, my camera seemed to fail to capture the instant moments(motion blur) even under well lit environments. But there's still the intensity, because these tricksters were doing the kicks for real.


More CNGNOT photos.

Favicon Tutorial - for blogger



Favicons are the small image logos that appears on the tabs or next to all your bookmarks. Here's the tutorial to help you customize your own Favicon....



It helps your site stand out in a list of bookmarks(compare to the other blank page looking icons or the infamous big orange B's for bloggers.)



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tools to make the icon:

There are plenty of icon making programs such as Macroangelo, Imagicon...etc, but photoshop works just fine as long as you save it as ".ico" file. (I'll teach you how in abit. Png/gif files are also ok for making favicons.)



Guidelines for favicons:

Make sure the icon's 16 by 16 pixels.

With limited space(yea, it's REALLY small), make sure the graphic is simple before it turns out to be complete blur.

Animated icons can sound really cool, but they can be very distracting and take away from the page itself.



Save file into .ico format:

Other than using the specialized program, photoshop has the same function to save file into ".ico". This is really meant for photoshop version CS or above(older version may work, but I've never tried it): So, once you're done with the 16x16 graphic, click "Save as", then click the drop down box and select "Jpeg", as for file name put in "NAME.ico".



Whatever the name is, make sure to add ".ico" at the end.



Upload:

To whichever online server you prefer.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After the creative process comes the more technical implmentation of your fine work:

Log into Blogger => click "Layout" => "edit HTML" => look for the following:





It should be on the top few lines of the source code.



Then, copy the following code right beneath it.

"Make sure to change the URL portion to where to store your icon.



Like this:





If you use Png file:

If you use Gif file:

It's all the same, just post the correpsonding codes under the the first line that I asked you to search for.



Bam, then you're done.



Click "Refresh" to see your icon at its best.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are plenty of Favicons out there. Here's for inspiration:

Fact of the Day

The first product Motorola started to develop was a record player for automobiles. At that time, the most known player on the market was the Victrola, so they called themselves Motorola.

Download your TIZ wallpaper


Almost a month ago, I've made a few types of OG Zeeb logo and asked you guys to voted for the most appealing ones. The...

grass and metal zeebs had very close votes, so I decided to made them both into wallpapers.

However, the size is only suitable for you iPhone/iPod touch users(the lucky ones).
Download: Metal. Grass.
But no worries, you get to vote for the next TIZ wallpaper phone model.

Want some stickers?

Sunday, May 3, 2009


The new stickers have arrived! So did some of our classic ones. Are you ready...

to get some stickers?
Right before you do that, you might like to go through the ideas behind our concept stickers, yes?

Other than our original logo stickers, TIZ printed our first batch of "Unzipped" concept stickers.
Unzipped-Unzipping the zipper to reveal the hidden zeeb in things around us.

My notebook's been a great TIZ supporter.

..and so has been my wall.

Here's your chance to discover their inner zeebs.

The other concept is the "Hiding Zeeb".
So, TIZ's been making a series of Zeeb Characters for those who are willing to take the time to request one. This is the very first zeeb character, it's also TIZ's very own mascot. Ironically, as a public icon, he's awfully shy.

He'd really appreciate it if you could do him a favor and find a place to hide this timid fella.

Next to your laptop, maybe?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
if you're digging the stickers, click here for the pack!

The pack comes with 2 Unzipped, 2 Hiding Zeeb, 2 OG zeeb, and 1 six by six inches Zeeb block sticker in a nifty package.
