Org vs. Com

10 January 2017 by kristarella Leave a Comment

Update: 11 Oct 2017: For a while now WordPress.com has made it possible to install themes and plugins on the WordPress.com Business plan. These new sites are a bit of a hybrid of .org and .com as described below. I will try to update the info-graphic soon. The eternal debate confusion decision: do I want WordPress.org or WordPress.com?

Latest kristarella.blog updates

24 November 2013 by kristarella Leave a Comment

I’ve spent a bit of time on my websites over the last few weeks. It was partly instigated by my deleting some themes on my server that I thought weren’t in use, but actually were! :O Of course I had backups, but when I restored them they didn’t work immediately, and rather than fluff about […]

Dash: snippets & documentation

18 November 2013 by kristarella 3 Comments

I’ve been using Dash as one of my code snippet managers (along with Gist for public snippets & Coda). I originally chose Dash for its shortcut auto-fill features (and it’s free with in-app upgrade on the Mac App Store!), but have recently found its offline documentation completely excellent. I primarily use the WordPress and PHP […]

Google Maps for iPhone: woooot!

13 December 2012 by kristarella

The official Google Maps for iPhone came out today! I’m pretty excited. Apple maps wasn’t so bad, if you live in California and possibly inner-city China. I thought the design of Apple Maps was pretty great, I liked the layout of the directions and how you could swipe across to see the next step of […]

Free iPhone apps to ‘view source’

4 October 2010 by kristarella

This weekend, while I was out all day, I found myself wanting to respond to questions on my blog and for one of those I needed to check out the source code of the questioner’s website. The ability to view the source code of a web page is easy from your desktop computer, but it’s […]

Edit EPS files in Inkscape on Mac

4 March 2010 by kristarella

EPS files have their uses, for sure, but they seem to be a standard output of Adobe Illustrator, which is a bit sad, because Inkscape (the open source vector editor I use) can’t open them (without some hassle with ghostscripts or something). Recently I needed to change the colour of an EPS image and I […]

Yesterday we had a family gathering to visit for t Yesterday we had a family gathering to visit for the first time where Gran's ashes are interred, next to Grandpa's. Afterwards we had a long lunch, at which Mark was a champ. I'm so grateful to have all these people who love me and love Mark. And super thankful to have such a social and easy going baby.

Mark and I had a great time at Brickbuilt yesterda Mark and I had a great time at Brickbuilt yesterday! 10 photos cannot cover it, so I might have to post again 😆Thanks everyone involved in organising, exhibiting, and for chatting to us about your builds!#brickbuiltsydney #brickbuiltsydney2022 #lego #afol @sydlug #legomastersau
Finally got a chance to pay these pretties some at Finally got a chance to pay these pretties some attention! Stabilised wood and resin pairings from @pensbycasey_ . The photo doesn't do them justice; the red burl is gorgeous and the blue and green colourshift resin is amazing. They don't have their perfect ink matches yet, but that's okay, I'll use up what is in them and try a different combo next time.#fountainpen #fountainpens #handmadeinaustralia
Rey and BB-8 on Tatooine.This is a reuse of this Rey and BB-8 on Tatooine.This is a reuse of this habitat, but I added another sun and a little more terrain. Fitting scene, as the sun has already set on my Star Wars day. I'd love to do a more gradual sunset, but I don't quite have the yellow and orange plates right now.#maythefourthbewithyou #maythe4thbewithyou #starwars #starwarsday #lego #legostarwars #afol #legomaydare @giothebrickjedi_andfam @nicole_s_brick_build_world
My little Yoda 💚Today might be known as Star My little Yoda 💚Today might be known as Star Wars Day for some, it is also my late grandfather's birthday. One of my memories (both actual memory and photo memory) is Grandpa dressing up as Santa. I don't know if he liked sci-fi, but I'd like to think he would have enjoyed dressing up with us on occasion 🤍#maythefourthbewithyou #maythe4thbewithyou #maytheforcebewithyou #starwars #starwarsday #yoda #babyyoda #marksymonds #crochet
