The quality is surprisingly good too. Some of the sites support mp3 feeds, some wma, and some both. I tested it from both… Continue Reading

Gallery mod_rewrites
I have just enabled these. What are they? Using mod_rewrite gives your links a cleaner URL that makes more sense to viewers. Before configuring mod_rewrite a link would be similar to: http://www.kristilecain.com/wordpress/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=3300 Looking at that link, there is no clue what the picture is, or even which album it’s in. You may want to have… Continue Reading
