To make your WeGIF your user icon you have to follow two simple steps.

2. Sign into your myspace account and upload the file you just downloaded, and set as profile photo.

Why Firefox is our favorite browser.

Sunday, December 14th, 2008

Here at WeGIF we use Firefox every day to develop and add new features to the WeGIF site. There are two reasons for this; web pages look good in Firefox and there are many tools available for this browser that make our day to day work quicker and easier.

Here’s a simple analogy to understand why webpages tend to look better in Firefox as opposed to other browsers, like Internet Explorer. A web page shown in the browser is usually built using a few computer languages (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, being quite common). If we think of these languages as human languages, then each browser whether it’s Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari etc. is a non-native speaker of that language. Note the “non-native” part, because it’s important. Each browser interprets the page and decides how to display it on the screen, but not every browser is equally skilled at this task.

Internet Explorer is especially troublesome since it quite often miss-interprets the original meaning of the pages and displays the layout of the pages incorrectly. This often requires additional coding to further explain to IE what the page looks like. This makes more work for us, and can even throw off the other browsers which would have worked fine otherwise.

If we tried to make WeGIF look perfect in every browser, we would be spending all of our time on this task alone, and not have any time left for real features. Most of visitors allready use Firefox, but there is a small percentage that still use IE7 and some even IE6, which is especially bad at… the web. There are many more benefits to Firefox, and we strongly encourage you to check it out for yourself,  download it and use it everyday.

Why I Love WeGIF

Friday, September 12th, 2008

I love WeGIF for a couple reasons.

Its a simple tool for understanding transactional Analysis. Association of Roles.

But even more so, WeGIF helps us better understand feng shui, better know in the Western World as Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle.

Placement and Movement, the more the position is known, the less direction is known and vice versa.

Both of these sites coincidentally have animated gifs on them.

The 3g Iphone is still not my N95.

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

There has been an incredible amount of talk leading up to the new iphone release and there is still a strong buzz in the air. I do have to admit i am still not satisfied with the outcome of the release.
For the past several weeks i have heard the 9th of June several times, mostly from friends holding out for their brand to release something that makes them proud. A response to the silence caused by their realization that my N95 provides a greater amount of satisfaction then their iphone.

So i watched the release and I am not satisfied.
Michael over at TechCrunch wrote up a review on it, but it didn’t sell me. I understand he was saying about Technology, but i must admit the first time i went to Disney World i was disappointed. I grew up less then an hour from Cedar Point, home of the largest, fastest roller coasters. Disney World just didnt have those rides.

Brass Tacks
Yes, you finally have GPS good work. It should have come with GPS in the first one.
You are 37% faster than my N95, thats not an impressive figure. Twice as fast is a nice figure. Telling someone you can download something one and a third times faster not so impressive Steve.

Camera
The camera lens is an easy KO blow for the iphone, its obvious. Wired did a comparison of 5mp Camera phones last month, Iphone wasn’t listed, and still wont be listed if they do it again. Why? It doesn’t have a 5 Mega Pixel Camera.

Adobe Flash ?
Do you have it….

Speakers
If you get a chance play the same song on an Iphone and N95. Turn them Up, at about 40% you will overpower the iphone at full blast. I went camping last weekend with my family, and my sister told me to bring a radio. I told her i was bringing my phone, she thought i was was joking.

So i ask this, what do you want your phone to do?
For me thats simple. I want it to be the only device in my pocket.
No ipod, no camera, no gps, just my phone.
Thats why i have an N95.

More reasons not by an Iphone

What is nice is that while flash doesnt play on Iphones, at least Gifs do.
