LOD Replacers are packages of the ".lod" data files (LODs) necessary to view objects that are not in the foreground; that is objects that are "distant" in the middle or back ground, also known as "Viewable While Distant" (VWD) objects. Not all replacer packages contain all the files related to LODs, such as meshes, textures, normal maps, and statics. Many include some of the optimized "_far.nif" (low polygon mesh) files lacking in the vanilla game to make objects visible from a distance, but not necessarily the same ones. (A "_far.nif" file is required to build a ".lod" file.) They are intended to overwrite the vanilla versions of the files they do contain, and generally work with the remaining vanilla versions of the related files, to varying degrees of success.

All WordPress plugin developers, you can integrate a security captcha image into your own WordPress plugin using the Really Simple Captcha plugin. It is a plugin in itself but it serves as an API and doesn’t have any purpose on its own without other plugins using it.
This is an example of how to use the Really Simple Captcha plugin API with your own WordPress plugin.

Over the past three days we’ve accomplished quite a bit. First we set up a form to post from the front end. Once we had the form all set up, we dropped in some code to allow images to be uploaded with the form. And finally we added in the ability to use custom meta boxes on our form to collect additional information in custom fields for us to use. That’s a lot of code. Plus I had some difficulties with code that sometimes worked and sometimes did not. I got that all fixed. I thought it might be best to drop the full code I have in one post so that we can review it together.

Directory Lister lets you list all or selected files you have in selected folders on your storage units into text, csv or html file. You can choose: which items to list (subdirs, size, date, time, attribs, directory names, directory size, full path, crc32 value); which directories to be included; sort options; selection mask (e.g.: *.mp3). It is possible to generate lists for each processed folders, to load and save personalized settings, and to list files from command line (for FTP owners).

In CSS we have many ways to style things in any way we want. When it gets to forms though, things get a little complicated. Text inputs are easy, but checkboxes and radio buttons are very difficult to style with CSS. In this tutorial I’ll show you exactly how to style these inputs and make awesome forms with just CSS!

I am not a programmer and I'm testing Sublime text as a general editor, oriented to tagged text for Desktop publishing. I have been attempting to get auto-pair working for typographical quotes (“”‘’«») without sucess, due to my lack of knowledge. Any suggestion? I attempted to modify the windows sublime keymap but... Thank you very much in advance.

Смысл поста — подытожить методику верстки писем под сегодняшние реалии, при этом не забывая про ископаемые клиенты.

Reducing the number of HTTP requests is a must, sprites are cool, but a pain to maintain, so there come data URIs (for all browsers) and MHTML (IE6 and 7). I've talked about these things on this blog to a point where the blog comes up in top 10 results in search engines for queries like "mhtml" and "data url". Therefore I think it's my duty to clarify a point for the good of the mankind :)

The goal of a reset stylesheet is to reduce browser inconsistencies in things like default line heights, margins and font sizes of headings, and so on. The general reasoning behind this was discussed in a May 2007 post, if you're interested. Reset styles quite often appear in CSS frameworks, and the original "meyerweb reset" found its way into Blueprint, among others.

I use Transmit everyday to post new content to Egg Freckles, or upload changes to my MessagePad theme. Transmit’s Sync command is invaluable for moving the changes on my computer to the various sites I have bookmarked in Transmit’s collection of favorites. Unfortunately no matter how useful Transmit’s Sync command may be, it is powerless at synchronizing my Transmit favorites between two or more computers.

Although there’s lots of things that you can do in WordPress, sometimes you may need a quick fix for a specific problem. In those cases, working directly on the database can be a real life-saver. In this article, I’m going to show you 10+ extremely useful SQL queries for WordPress.

HTML5 Boilerplate helps you build fast, robust, and adaptable web apps or sites. Kick-start your project with the combined knowledge and effort of 100's of developers, all in one little package.

Between my day job as an ASP.NET developer and my freelancing and writing, I bounce around among computers quite a bit. I currently split time among my MacBook Air and a Windows 7 PC, as well as various Linux and Windows virtual machines. After setting up Sublime for the second or third time, I realized that I needed to automate the process of installing packages and tweaking configs.

Lets you to define a Hosts.sublime-settings file with specific settings for each machine you work on.

Dropbox is a free file synchronization/backup service where you can backup, save and share files. One of the best things is, that you can use it as git remote server.

There’s a ton of information floating around on preprocessors nowadays. Most of that info is geared towards Mac users, so in this post I’m providing a very simple guide to help Windows-based developers get up and running quickly with Sass (my preprocessor of choice).
As you can see from the message at the top of this post’s page, this article falls under the CSS Basics category, which usually doesn’t appear in the main feed. However, I’m allowing this to appear in the main home page feed so it can get a little more exposure and any developers who already use Sass on Windows can add their feedback.
Overall, Sass is not difficult at all to get set up, even if you’re doing it on the command-line. But if you have no interest in going through all these steps, but still want to use Sass on Windows, well, just skip to the final heading in this post for a reference to an app that lets you start using Sass on Windows with minimal setup.

It's pretty amazing what you can do with the pseudo elements :before and :after. For every element on the page, you get two more free ones that you can do just about anything another HTML element could do. They unlock a whole lot of interesting design possibilities without negatively affecting the semantics of your markup. Here's a whole bunch of those amazing things. A roundup, if you will.
