Install multiple versions of Internet Explorer with IE Collection

If you’re trying test your sites on multiple versions of IE and want to install them on the same machine, you can grab IE Collection. It installs multiple standalone versions of IE. There are tons of versions to choose from and to test Zeep Mobile I went with IE 6,7,8.

Free weather icons

I made these weather icons several months ago with the intent on posting them on iStockphoto as paid downloads. It started taking too long to get them just right, so I bailed on the project before finishing the whole set. So instead, you can have them for free!

Download the Illustrator File

I’ll slap some kind of Creative Commons license on these later. IIRC – it’s the one that says “use this as you will for whatever reason you want, but give me credit somewhere” kind. Preferrably with a link to this site. Cheers!

Moo.fx JavaScript library

I wanted to create an error message that fades from a bright red to a lighter shade on the ActiveState website Komodo beta page.

After a bit of research I found the Moo.fx Javascript Library, which was super easy to implement. I triggered the colour transition using the window.onload event. (I used Simon Willis’ function to add the event to the window.onload handler).

I’ll add a link to the beta page so you can experience the beauty yourself.
