Website launch - www.littlelightphotos.com

Launched a new site today for little light photography. Built in XHTML and CSS with a hint of PHP. Site includes rotating images on the front page, clean simple layout, easy navigation and appealing color theme.

Little light is run by Kimberly L.N. Mngqibisa and she is great to work with. Kimberly took our 1 year anniversary photos this past weekend and they came out great (will post soon.)

Restore Point Blues

I manually back up my data monthly, but recently my webhost lost all their servers. How does one recover from such a tragedy? Painstakingly slow, that’s how.  I have 4 of 5 sites back online, but was unable to recover the latest design of my portfolio site. Uploading backups take along time, and they may not be the most current data.

I for one have learned a valuable lesson, and others should back up sites frequently (especially if you made them for someone else), and never rely on a webhost as a safety net.

Adding a Favicon to your Website

category Categories:html web design

tags Post Tags: , , , ,

Adding a favicon to your website can be done with an online favicon generator and one line of html code.

First, check out this site to create your favicon out of a square image or if you prefer to create it in Adobe Photoshop you will need to download a plug in from telegraphics. Remember favicons are 16×16 square images so simple images are better.

Next, save this image to the root directory of your website.

Finally, add this snippet of code to the header section of each webpage:

<link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”favicon.ico” type=”image/ico” />

This method is pretty universal but should be checked in many popular browsers. It should also be noted that depending on some servers the favicon man not display immediately.
