Free Icons for Android

Friday, March 13th, 2009

I was just reading one of my mates blog, Ignite, and remebered that the guys at glyFX released a free icon set for the android mobile platform. You can check out the The Android Developer Common Icon Set which contains a total of 24 free quality icons.

The guys at glyFX really do create some stunning icons, and its good to see them release free icons for developers who wish to create applications for the android platform. So please check out the The Android Developer Common Icon Set and if you can help support the guys for their hard work.

You can also check out the full set of free icons that glyFX have released here.

As a developer who sucks at anything that involves design, I love buying ready made icons I can just plug into my application. The guys at glyfx have done a brilliant job with their latest vista network set, so go check it out:

Cluttered Webspace

Tuesday, March 25th, 2008

One of the things I hate most when working is logging into FTP of a website you need to make changes to, and you find it littered with crap…..and I mean CRAP. Like some things I find is stuff from like index.old.bak and index.bak2 etc or things from 2006 that never get used anywhere. I try and never do this (I must admit, im not perfect but I try to avoid it at all costs), and if i do its for 5 minutes while I test a new file then I will delete my .bak file.

As a web developer, when ever i handle file uploads i always make sure that I store the file in a logical folder structure eg: /uploads/news/images/ and when the user deletes an item eg news article, DELETE ALL FILES associated  with the item!!!!!!
