thisphotobylanehartwell.com: Lane Hartwell and the great Creative Rights Conundrum [21 Dec 2007|01:01am] It all started a while back when Lane Hartwell got frustrated. Friends spoke up on her behalf. At some point she called a lawyer and enacted the DMCA on the offending party's asses. See Misunderstanding Copyright Law And Ruining Everyone's Fun and/or My statement regarding the Richter Scales "Here comes another bubble" video dispute. So there was some mainstream media coverage, and of course the bloggers sang along like a gospel choir. Some offered "easy" solutions. Finally, she just sent an invoice. And the video was remade without her photograph included. Early on in all this, I bought thisphotobylanehartwell.com. I've been tracking and writing about the situation in a friends-only post, but in the end, less is more. So go over to lanehartwell.com, er, I mean thisphotobylanehartwell.com. It is customizable so that whenever you need to provide attribution to someone you can do it in really big text. 2 comments|post comment

Hates Intenets (Explorer) [21 Dec 2007|12:19pm] [ music | Grinderman - No Pussy Blues ] danielsjourney's margins just got fixed in IE7. No idea what it looks like in IE6. But really, anyone who uses IE probably doesn't care about what web sites look like. (This is what it's supposed to look like.) (Your OS-specific font/text treatments may vary.) Still can't figure out what's wrong with its list item bullets being not at all centered on the first line of list text, or why the list bullets don't show up at all in the menu. But there is basically no styling other than the bullet graphic change out going on there, and I don't even know if you can move around a bullet to get it to line up any better than the browser does by default. Now on to johnnycitizen.com. That one has more issues, where I get really annoyed that IE doesn't support fixed elements very well. I'm basically going to just start over there. post comment
