<p>This isn't a Drupal related topic per se, but it is a walk-through of one of the applications that I use whilst doing Drupal development work. I assume, like most Mac OS X users, I use MAMP to run Apache, MySQL and PHP locally whilst developing. I also use virtual …</p>

<h2>Create a Block of Social Media Icons using CCK, Views and Nodequeue</h2>
<p>I recently decided that I wanted to have a block displayed in a sidebar on my site containing icons and links to my social media profiles - Twitter, Facebook etc. I tried the Follow module, but it lacked the option to add extra networks such my Drupal.org account, and my …</p>

<h2>Improve JPG Quality in Imagecache and ImageAPI</h2>
<p>Whilst uploading images for my Projects and Testimonials sections, I noticed that the Imagecache-scaled images weren't as high a quality the originals on my Mac. I did some searching online and found out that, by default, Drupal resamples uploaded jpgs to 75% of their original quality.

<h2>Create a Slideshow of Multiple Images Using Fancy Slide</h2>
<p>Whilst updating my About page, I thought about creating a slideshow of several images instead of just the one static image.
