MacDust + Netscape

Netscape Navigator cleaning has been added to MacDust. After examining Navigator's trail, it looked strikingly familiar, in fact it's so familiar it matches exactly. The gook that Navigator leaves behind is EXACTLY the same as Firefox. To me it looks like Netscape just gutted Firefox except for the rendering system, replaced anything that said Firefox with Navigator/Netscape and pumped it out as their own.

It's kinda sad really. Expect the MacDust update to be uploaded soon.

Absence

So it's been a while since the last update for, well, anything.

I've been working on a project for school (and hopefully to share). It's a text-based (sorta) online RPG. It's really cool so far actually. I'm using it as not only an opportunity to slide by in school, but I'm also trying new things with my coding. When it's done it'll be really cool I'm hoping, but I have no idea how the hell I'm going to pay for the bandwidth.

I hope to have more details on that soon, and a MacDust update or two, maybe even get around to that Netscape cleaning.

MacDust: New Feature

MacDust 2.46 allows you to quickly turn invisible items on and off. I mainly made this update because InVisibles wasn't saving the Serial Number (it's emailware, you give them your email and they send a serial for you). This got really annoying because I like to do things quickly, plus there were some other delays it caused.

So I added this wonderfully fast "scratch-own-itch" feature. It's under the Tools Panel which I redid for a tad bit more organization.

Remodeling

It's time for the once-whenever-I-feel-like-it website remodeling time! But this time, I'm totally stuck!

I'm assigning you the task to go out and find a great theme for my website. Find a RapidWeaver 3.6 compatible theme that fits the Mac theme of my software.

But here's the fun part!
If you submit the theme that I like the most, then you will win a free copy of that theme (or any theme of that value) and a free copy of MacDust!

Let the search for the best theme begin! For full details click the Read More link. Read More...

The November Post

Well it's November. Great, almost my birthday to remind me how I'm not a kid anymore. Faaaantastic.

I update MacDust so often it's just not always fun to update VersionTracker and MacUpdate, so be sure to keep automatic update checking on heh. I try to keep them up to date, but I just update so much, it's such a bad habit. Netscape cleaning is still in the works, be patient, it'll appear sometime.

November is my test month, this will be the first full month on my new host, and I'm going to see if I can actually make it on the current bandwidth limit. Try not to overdo it, but don't under use it either! I think it'll be really, really close, not sure which way though.
