Now, I know this is a craft blog not a tech blog. Despite this I have blogged about some slightly techie topics before where it’s relevant to crafters, or at least to this crafter. This post falls into that category…
Time for another of our on-going series of tools related posts. Today, the GNU Image Manipulation Program, or GIMP. And, yes, it is a daft name, even when you know that GNU, in this context, is an operating system rather than a large African ungulate…
So you may have noticed that the update schedule of this blog can best be described as ‘intermittent’. Other possible descriptions are ‘infrequent’, ‘occasional’, ‘fitful’, ‘non-isochronal’, or even ‘as rare as mermaid toes’…
I recently got a new Android phone, and wondered immediately how I might use it to help with UnRuley Articles. So I thought I’d talk about a couple of apps that I’ve found that are already proving their worth. I plan to add to this post as and when I find apps that are useful to crafty/bloggy sorts, so if you know of any suitable apps please shout out in the comment section.
Tools are cool: they’re what thumbs were made for. Both Misha and I love tools; the little things that make a difficult job into an easy one. Whether it’s a comfortable pair of pliers for jewellery work, a little plastic doodad for making polymer clay beads, or a new rotary tool with enough attachments to build a fully operational deathstar.
