Other than the obviously cheesy Flickr-like name, the service is awesome. It's simple and to the point, giving you a quick way to make thumbnails for the million and one social networks out there today. ... http://www.digitallytwisted.biz/2007/07/29/very-slick/ As more and more people run businesses out of their homes, virtual offices have become a life saver. I admit, I have often thought how helpful it would be to be able to run DTM with a receptionist and a "real" address. And while virtual offices have been ... http://www.digitallytwisted.biz/2007/06/20/virtual-office/ Got some themes for the sandbox competition in the works. Will keep you posted! :) http://www.digitallytwisted.biz/2007/06/19/still-working/ I am completely digging the new WP 2.2! I don't know how it works but I noticed on my other blog that it was auto-saving my entry as I was writing it.

Very simplistic but sometimes it's the basics that stop ... http://www.digitallytwisted.biz/2007/06/10/29/ I don't know what they really are but this is my inspiration for a new theme: I'm planning on cropping it though. See the note on the Flickr page to see my idea. http://www.digitallytwisted.biz/2007/06/09/flowers-daisies/ There are times when I find myself looking at a design and wondering how on earth that person put it all together. I'm not a big fan of simply stealing someone's code (and thus, hard work) so I tend to try to find my own way to recreate it. ... http://www.digitallytwisted.biz/2007/06/09/oooooooo/ I think I might give the Sandbox Designs Competition a go! It looks like fun although it will be a bit challenging. I like pretty things. Thus, I like to use photos and graphics through out my designs.
