Color Wheel Pro - Color Wheel Pro is a unique software program that allows you to see color theory in action. With Color Wheel Pro, you can create harmonious color schemes and preview them on real-world examples. For years, artists have been using color wheel to choose colors that go well together. Color wheel is a visual representation of color theory: with a simple color wheel printed on cardstock or plastic, you can quickly create a quite good color scheme. But a printed color wheel has one big disadvantage: it cannot SHOW you how your color scheme will look on a real design -- that is, on a logo, website, or banner you're working on. Color Wheel Pro is the only tool that allows you to see color theory in action: the main feature of Color Wheel Pro is the ability to preview color schemes on real-world examples. The preview is real-time: when adjusting the color scheme, you see the changes immediately. I've owned this for quite a while and love the way it displays a complete color palette.

PEELAWAY ADS - What fun! I have used this on the front page of the school site and on several client sites. Everyone likes it since it isn't one of those "In your face" pop-ups, pop-ins or pop-unders. There are videos to show you how easy it is to set up as well as three different scripts including a rotating ad script. Might be a novel way to offer advertising on your website? To check it out, simply click on the ad in the upper right corner of this page or the link at the beginning of this review.

SEO for WordPress - If you use cPanel you know that installing your WordPress blog has never been easier. Two clicks and you’re done. What you may not be aware of is that out of the box, WordPress is not that SE (Search Engine) friendly.

When I realized that I began trying to decide what I should do to change the situation. It’s hard to know where to start or what should be done in what order. I am trying to find someone qualified to teach a class in WordPress but in the meantime....

I was glad to find Mike Paetzold’s report “7 Tips to Make your Word Press Blog Search Engine Friendly“.

Mike has a way of walking people step by step through this so that even if you aren’t “techie” you’ll easily be able to do the same.

There is a small charge but it is less than the price of ordering a pizza! Be sure to check it out. You will be glad you did.
