My Life, and Pursuit of Becoming A Millionaire

I R Go To Walmart 4 Oil Change

I couldn’t resist the temptation to step slightly behind the counter and snap a quick shot of this picture with my Mogul.

“Specialized Filters Not Include In The Price Of Oil Change” – I R Walmart Oil Tech

This here reminds me of the bad billboard project - only this is hanging on the wall of a Utah Walmart. Apparently one of the “Tech’s” (as they call themselves) got carried away with the advanced features of Microsoft Word. So carried away, in fact, that they forgot how to make sense. “Specialized Filters Not Include In The Price Of Oil Change”. I must admit though, the design is mind blowing. I would suggest that this Tech stick with oil changes for now. Just an honest opinion. 

 

This Blog Theme Is Ugly. Why Am I Using It?

Meet Zac Johnson. More Importantly, meet Zac Johnson’s website. Zac is my new best friend. Why is it that all of my friends are people I have never met before? That’s just how it seems to work lately.

Anywho, Zac’s website is my new favorite place to go for information on how to make cash on the internet. The reason I have this ugly, brown theme is because I read a post on Zac’s blog where he directs his readers to a couple of cool websites that have adsense optimized wordpress themes. I’ve been looking for a free adsense optimized theme (ugly or not) for a long time now, so I figured I would give this one a try. As ugly as it is, I’m quite happy with it for the time being.

Thanks again to Zac, I’ve began my trek into affiliate marketing. Feel free to checkout my affiliate networking page and sign up for some of the affiliate company’s. Zac is a pimp. He even accepted me as a friend on Facebook. How kind of him.

I can’t wait till the day where I’m cool enough to have Jones Soda make a bottle with my picture on it.

See this post on Zacs blog to find free wordpress themes.

For reals? A pixelated Guiliani on his own website? This is hilarious I thought. Click the images for a larger view. Also, if you’re viewing the larger images in Internet Explorer 7 then you’ll need to click the image again to “magnify” it.


(This is the part I’m talking about that’s pixelated)

What the heck are favicons? How do I make one?

Favicon Definition: Favorites Icon.
Examples: Internet Explorer Favicon  eBay Favicon Paypal Favicon

You know how you can save webpages as “favorites”? Well, you know that little internet explorer icon that’s most likely next to most of your saved favorites? That’s what a favicon is. As you can see from the examples above, it’s just another way for webmasters to personalize their site.

Favicons can be a pain to design due to the restrictions (below). But it’s actually really simple to get one on your site. I’ll let you in on a few tips for creating your own favicon and uploading it to your site.

Restrictions:

1. 16×16 pixels (I think they must be this small)
2. Must be a “.ico” file. Such as: favicon.ico or myfavicon.ico or whatever.ico.
3. Must be placed in your root directory on your file server (ftp) for the browser to automatically detect it or put this code into your index.html file <link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”images/favicon.ico” mce_href=”images/favicon.ico” type=”image/x-icon” /> and place your favicon.ico into the /images/ folder.
4. Probably a few more that I’m too lazy to mention.

Steps:

1. Go Here: http://www.favicon.cc/ or google for another “favicon generator”.
2. Download your complete favicon.
3. Upload it to your root directory or your /images/ directory (if followed instructions above).
