The Story of Shelf - Hicks.design
Now that the Shelf Theme is finally launched, I wanted to write up some of the process and challenges that The Theme Foundry and I faced in it’s creation. I’d started with the intention of dribbling everything, but constantly found that I wanted to show more than 400x300px, so I started documenting the process in a Flickr Set instead. This post will flesh those out further. Creation I had a very c
Google Reader Theme - Hicks.design
I’ve been using Flickr as a bit of testbed for a new site theme I’ve been working on for Google Reader. C’mon after the Bloglines thing, I bet you saw it coming didn’t you?! Same drill again then. There may well be oddness and inconsistencies, and Google may well make radical changes to the Reader’s markup tomorrow, mucking the whole show up. But for what it’s worth, here it is! Its not trying to
Cairo beats Safari? - Hicks.design
As highlighted recently by Jeffrey Zeldman, Firefox text rendering lags behind that of Safari, or rather Gecko lags behind WebKit. This is because at present, Gecko browsers use the older Quickdraw graphics library, originally developed for OS 9, rather than Quartz, or the more recent Core Image libraries. Its been the main reason I prefer Omniweb or Safari over Camino/Firefox, text just looks SO
OS X skin for Bloglines :: journal :: hicksdesign Ο°
NetNewswire, Newsfire, Shrook, NewsMac, Safari RSS, Pulp Fiction, RSS Menu Endo, Feedlounge, Rojo, Feed on Feeds, NewsGator AND Google Reader. If it works on a Mac and feeds my RSS addiction, I’ve tried and used it. Until recently my perennial favourite, Newsfire, had been toppled by the beta of the upcoming NetNewsWire 3. It’s new combined view gave me what I wanted in an RSS reader, the so-calle
Highlight Microformats with CSS :: journal :: hicksdesign Ο°
Those that use Firefox with the Tails extension, read no further. This is not for you. You have it given to you on a plate, you don’t know how lucky you are. This is for those of us using Camino, Safari or Omniweb. After I mocked up an image of how Microformats detection might work in Safari, I started looking at the tools there were available. While there wasn’t anything that handled detection, T
A Proposal for a Safari Microformats plugin : journal : hicksdesign Ο°
In a nutshell, I want to be able to easily take advantage of Microformats. I want to know about and get that information with the same ease as RSS Feeds, and I want it to work on a Mac. Firefox already has its ‘Tails’ extension, but this currently only displays microformats in the sidebar. There’s the TailsExport extension for exporting the data found, but sadly, this is Windows only. So what tool
Web Development with... Safari
When it comes to testing and debugging sites, it seems that Firefox can’t be beaten. Not only does it have an inbuilt DOM Inspector and Javascript console to beat all others, but the plethora of useful extensions is unmatched. Everyone knows and uses Chris Pedericks Web Developer extension, along with any number other handy extras - Firebug, X-Ray, Aardvark, etc. Other browsers have useful tools t
10 Mac Apps - Hicks.design
Om Malik has started a meme, and as much as I try to fight it, I can’t resist butting into this one. The premise is: ask Mac Lovers - their ten most favorite apps. Forget, the Microsoft Office, or any of the applications that are bundled with an Apple. Instead, focus on small freeware and shareware applications that have helped you get the most out of your Mac. So Safari, iPhoto and Fireworks MX a
Jeremy is right! Tiger underwhelms, except for... - Hicks.design
I have to come out and agree with Jeremy, Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger is a little underwhelming. I’ve been using it for 8 weeks now, and overall, I’m not as wowed as I was with the Jaguar>Panther upgrade. Sure, there are a lot of improvements, but I’ve not found a use for Dashboard and Spotlight, the supposed major features. I’m still missing uControl’s virtual scrolling, and haven’t found any suitable re
