So I wanted to be able to have a lightwidow open up on mouseover, but couldn’t find an easy way to do this, especially not without having to embed scripts in the page, which is a huge pain within a wordpress post (though I do have TextControl installed now, but still). Anyways, this implementation is as follows:
For a normal lightwindow link, you simply add class = "lightwindow" to the link tag. For a link to become mouseover friendly, add class = "lightwindow_over" instead.
There are a few changes that then must be made to the lightwindow.js file: Continue reading ‘Lightwindow Mod: Enabling OnMouseOver Activation’
Note: I’m pretty sure some of the steps below are either redundant, or at least unnecessary (such as moving to the desktop, but I kept that since it helps keep things organized). So do comment on improvements to the process. This is just what I’ve been using.
SUMMARY/ALTERNATE PROCESS:
Just select the songs you want to move in the finder, and double click (or drag into iTunes). They’ll be copied, but not “re-added” as they once were (in previous versions).

WOW! There is tons of free guitar software out there… Even a handful of apps that can open GuitarPro files (prolly do a better job than the POS mac version of guitarpro). (These are either osx apps, LINUX apps that can run on OSX, or Web/Java apps). [All are usable at least under OSX, though at levels of functionality that I can't yet say]

**TabView:”TabView makes it possible to view and print PowerTab tablatures. PowerTab is a well-known and widely adopted tablature editor for Windows systems. You can easily find thousands of song transcriptions in this format on the net. (OSX App)”
**DGuitar Pro: Views, Prints and Plays Guitar Pro (*.GP4,*.GP3,GTP) files!!
**TuxGuitar: A multitrack guitar tablature editor and player written in Java-SWT, Opens GP3,GP4 and GP5 files! Works!! And made “Images” by Cacaphony sound awesome, since it changed a few of the instruments from the GP4 file… (Electronic drums! haha!) And is much smoother working than the official GP for Mac (< a href="http://apoc.buildtolearn.net/wordpress/2006/08/07/guitar-pro-5-for-mac/">blech). Yay!

Untested/Whack:
Tablature is a Java program that lets you author guitar and bass tablatures graphically, playback the songs and publish them into the Web !” (Works, but is awkward and not so useful…)
KGuitar: Untested guitar tab editor for KDE (might work in X11, but don’t have the time to test right now). Can open GP4 files!
Wow. This is just stunning!!! Now I have something to do this summer!!!!

An amazing site full of mods (already!) for the XBOX 360

Pretty incredible!
So I’m looking for keyboard tabs (metal) all over the net, only to find that the ONE metal “synth” site no longer exists ANYwhere!
I think, the first incarnation, can be found advertised on some older tabs: http://synthoblivion.cjb.net/
eventually became http://www.synthoblivion.net/
which I think redirected to: http://www.jeka.org/oblivion/
“here”:http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&rls=RNWE%2CRNWE%3A2005-01%2CRNWE%3Aen&q=site%3Awww.jeka.org%2Foblivion%2F is the google list of cached pages, rather sad really…
Please let me know if you know anything about this! Or if you know of other good places to find metal tabs (it says they had HAGGARD tabs!!! I want them!!!!!) (and no, taborama et al. do NOT count)
EditUPDATE!!! I used google’s cache to find the haggard tab!!
See the cache “here”:http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:XVtkpkKhDnkJ:jeka.org/oblivion/index.php%3Ftab%3Dhaggard-awaking_the_centuries.txt+&hl=en
I used the following google searches, which should be useful for anyone trying to get content from a site that is now dead, but was around long enough for google to index it (and I assume google will toss the index after a period of time, so that’s another factor, that it only died recently… but some of those caches are old, from March or July…) anyways:
GOOGLE DIGGGGGGGING
site to dig:http://jeka.org/oblivion
- [Google]_www.jeka.org/oblivion/
- then looked at cache, copied link for haggard tabs…
- [Google]_http://jeka.org/oblivion/tabs_haggard.shtml
- look at cache, google the link to the tab file itself…
- [Google]_http://jeka.org/oblivion/index.php?tab=haggard-awaking_the_centuries.txt
- And of course get the cache for that, which is the file we want: hooray!
That’s all for now…
