An Art Iceland eBay Store has just been integreted.
The store offers a lot of interesting and useful things from Iceland as well as art work and art supplies. Unfortunately there are not a lot of Icelandic artists that portray their work on eBay - but we will add them as we find more and more that do.
Here is a list of what is available on the Art Iceland Store:
Fortunately for us - the web is full of amazing free software programs. Free photo editing programs are no exception and there are a few that I will recommend.
Each free photo editing program has its pros and cons and a specific task that fits best. You can try these programs out and see what you like best. All these programs can be a great help in building a digital photo web or just for various other photo editing tasks you may need.
The programs are…
GIMP
Picasa
Photoscape
Paint.NET
See more screen shots and learn what I found out about these programs here:
The Italian, French, Spanish, Belgian and Netherlands 4×4 Sale stores have even been translated into the national language - even though I simply used Google to translate.
Unfortunately the Indian and Singapore stores have practically no selection of cars - let alone 4×4s.
I also added this special flags menu to change between the stores:
Watch out! - here come the engineers who have cats who yodel. It’s called the “Engineers’ Guide to Cats”. It is SO funny, because these guys are the absolute textbook engineers and their explanations for what their cats do are so well done. It makes me laugh every time I see it.
Two professional engineers illustrate the proper care and practical benefits of cats. None of the cats, humans, or engineers were mistreated in the making of this film. They were however, slightly annoyed. Song on ending credits is called “Sparky’s New Bike” from Shockwave-sound.com royalty free music website.
My Diet Program has gone through a few revisions during the time it has been online. Last update was a BANS store installation with a number of diet articles.
Now I have taken the articles and added them to the blog part as well as added articles from real people that are having success with their diet methods.
Technologically the site is now BOTH a Build A Niche Store as well as a WordPress blog. The cool thing is that both versions look alike and the sidebars are customizable through the WordPress admin interface.
They are the modern version of the old magnifying glass in the sun trick. This time the sunlight is collected from a lot larger area and the result is HUGE. Check out these videos and see for yourself what it can be used for.

Being a webmaster of your own sites can be daunting. You actually have to DO most of the work yourself or find someone else who can do it for you. Some tasks are easier to do using the right software and some are easier using a service.
Using Amazon Mechanical Turk is one of the more brilliant ways to outsource. Of course you have to think about tasks that are easy and quick to work on but still need human intelligence. After funding your account, you create Human Intelligence Tasks (HITs for short) and submit them to the Mechanical Turk. After a surprisingly short time you get results coming in from workers around the globe.
I am just starting to experiment with the possibilities but already find this extremely useful.
Example - using the Advanced HIT tool:
Title: Do You LOVE your Digital Camera?
Description: Give us your quick view on it.
Keywords: digital photo,digital camera,nikon,canon,olympus,pentax,minolta
As 4×4OffRoads.com is really becoming an authority site it is about time to expand it using InfinIt!
Today I added a BANS - Niche Store to enhance the site and add some interesting 4×4 off road video games. I selected the most popular 4×4 games from eBay. The store is nicely integrated with the same look and feel as the original site. At the same time I updated the core part of the site with a little more flexible setup, where the content centers on screen if the width of the browser window is more than 1024 pixels.
Enter the world of 4×4 Off Road video games! Race huge V8 powered 4×4s, monster trucks and ATVs around rugged terrain, including islands, massive arenas and volcanoes.
All the top 4×4 truck and off road video games are available:
The computer has come a long way and the mouse and keyboard have been the major input devices. Interesting development has been done in using the digital pen as an input device.
Check out this video that shows a few new digital pens:
