After searching on this topic a few days ago I came across a gem of an app that solves the problem of organizing these collected Photoshop goodies. Enter Preset Viewer 2.1 by Tumasoft.

With a super easy installation, Preset Viewer automatically scans selected drives and finds typical photoshop files such as .abr, .acb, .aco, .act, .ase, .asl, .csh, .pat, .psd, as well as image files including .bmp, .dib, .jp1, .jp2, .jpg, .png formats and sorts them by type all within the viewer to allow easy browsing and tagging of your Photoshop goodies no matter where they are located on your hard drive. Preset Viewer then allows you to view each collection as thumbnails or in a filmstrip so you never have to lose track of a certain brush or shape again!

To me the absolute best feature of this app (well besides the fact it only costs $37 ) is once you are able to browse and tag your entire brush collection all in one place, you can then sort them into your own chosen sets and export them as new brush files either .abr or .png formats eliminating the need for loading several different collections just to use a one or two brushes from each one. You can even create and export new .aco color swatch files for sharing on kuler.com or between your other adobe applications.

As with anything there are of course a few things that I believe could be improved… such as adding the ability to delete files from within the viewer (though you can jump straight to the folder the file is located in so that does help) and I definitely would like to see the ability to export new shape collections as well, but overall this app is an excellent way to finally be able to view and sort through these file types without having to use Photoshop.

You can purchase Preset Viewer 2.1 at tumasoft.com for $37.00 USD

Sharing your Content

Adding social links to your posts allows your visitors to easily share and bookmark your content across multiple social networking platforms. Here are a few different ways you can do this…

An emoticon is a textual portrayal of a writer’s mood or facial expression. They are often used to alert a responder to the tenor or temper of a statement, and can change and improve interpretation of plain text. Early emoticons go back to the 1800s and commonly arose when casual/humorous writing was common. The emoticons on the Internet can largely be traced back to a proposal by Scott Fahlman in a message of 19 September 1982.

Emoticons in Wordpress

There’s a default set of emoticons that come with every install of wordpress and are located in the folder wp-includesimagessmilies. Before they will show in your blog posts, the emoticons must first be enabled within the admin panel located under Settings → Writing. Make sure the box “Convert emoticons” is checked.

Style your emoticons

You can style the emoticons using the following image class:

img.wp-smiley

For example, remove the border around the emoticon and give it some space by adding the following code to your stylesheet:

img.wp-smiley { border: 0; padding: 0 2px; }

Use your emoticons

The following chart is the text/code needed to produce the corresponding smiley/emoticon.

View source (or copy-able text )

Change your emoticons

So enough fun with the boring ol’ default emoticons, you can change them to anything you want! There are a couple ways to do this.. Personally, I prefer to just change them out myself rather than use yet another plugin But there are plugins that will do it as well.

If you want to change out the default emoticons yourself, first backup the original ones! All you have to do is replace the old emoticons with your new ones making sure to name the new ones the same name as the corresponding default ones. Be sure and keep copies of the emoticons you are using because they will be replaced if you upgrade your blog automatically via plugin or admin panel on version 2.7 and up.

Wordpress Emoticon Plugins

• If you would rather use a plugin to do change them, here are a few that I found:
• Tango Smileys Extended – disables the built-in WordPress smileys and extends the number of available smileys from 18 to 202.
• Smilies Themer – allows you to use smilies (emoticons) themes (or packs) to replace the wordpress default ones
• Smiley Switcher – With this plugin you can choose a smiley pack from the settings / options in admin or simply choose your own smiley pack directory.

Download New Emoticons

• Find all sorts of different emoticons at the following links…
• Aqua Smilies – created for Wordpress
• White Emoticons Pack – created for Wordpress
• Xpressions Emoticon Pack – created for Wordpress, 4 different color choices
• Animated Chinese Emoticons – Animated emoticons and plugin

So here it is, a brand new design that I hope inspires me to post more tutorials and freebies And as I said before initially it was a logo I was designing, which I did as well… check it out…

Being that I am a designer I found it only fitting to use some sort of computer “symbol” and so many of them have been over-used in my opinion. So I found an @ symbol that when reversed resembled a “D” and there you have it… My new logo

Let me know what you think and if you encounter any issues!
