Make A Stupid Favicon For Free

Stopping by Gadgetopia today, I found this: FavIcon from Pics Dz found a site that will make you a favicon (translation: That little picture that site have next to their name in your address bar) out of any image for free. Its a nice little site with a good purpose, which is something I admire because I run a site with no purpose.

As you can see above, I tried the site out, and with no other ideas I used the contest winning picture of myself as the favicon. As fun as it is to look at my mug up there, I would like something that isn’t all about me. It would be fine if this was a site all about how “the world is a dark pit of dispair and I hate my job at Cinnabon“, but its not. So I looking for any and all ideas for a more permanant picture for Hell Yeah Bitch! .com’s favicon. Just remember the longer takes for all of you to comment with some suggestions, the longer you have to see my face in your bookmarks menu and address bar. Scary huh?

Web Advertising and Hell Yeah Bitch! .com

What does it take for a guy to get a graphical advertisement on his website? When I changed the look of this page a month or two ago, I changed the “Ad Section” of the front page to be a little bigger to accommodate a graphical advertisement. I just thought it would give the front page a bit more of a “front page” feel, like that of a magazine or newspaper. However after modifying the space and changing my adsense settings I still have not seen any graphical ads appear in that slot. What gives?

Former Penis Owner Sneaks Into America’s Next Top Model


The amazing gossip reporter, and Hell Yeah Bitch! .com commenter, Perez Hilton is kind of breaking a story or rumor that a contestant on UPN’s America’s Next Top Model is (or was) a man.

You know how reality shows love their plot twists? Well, we hear that Top Model has a doozey in store for this season.

A little bird (with a big yapper) tells us that contestant Coryn has a big secret to reveal: she’s a man!

Okay, that was the sensationalistic way to say it. In actuality, Coryn is allegedly a transgender female.

We hope this turns out to be true and not some stupid parrot squawking BS in our ear.

While gay and lesbian characters are very prevalent in reality television, representations of transgender people are all but nonexistent.

If Coryn is transgender, that would be the hottest thing ever! If Coryn is not, hey, at least she still has great arms and she beat up anyone that calls her a trannie.

Just take a look at the picture above and you tell me if you think this is true. I mean, it took my girlfriend and I all of 5 seconds of seeing her on screen in last week’s season opener to say “She is really manly!” Now I’m hoping with all my might that later this season she will confess all in an all-out cry-fest…you know, be cause noone really cries that much on that show.

First I come out of my TV closet and confess my love for Veronica Mars and now this. Lets just make this the official “Lets Talk About UPN Shows Day” here at Hell Yeah Bitch.com.

Screw Google VPN, Use iPig

Yeah, Google is rolling out their own wireless network and with it, their own VPN access for all to use as well. But why does everyone have to be all about Google? Give some other nice company a moment of your time.

For example, take iPig, the “iOpus Private Internet Gateway” (I would have stuck with the full name instead of going with the acronym “pig”). iPig lets you use encryption with any internet connection with no configuration. Plus, its free if you join their beta team. Not only that, but if you join the beta team for their “iPig Server” you will get a free Pro version of the software, once it goes gold.

This might be worth checking out if you are the paranoid type…and you are running windows, because there is no mac or linux versions.

Veronica Mars Season 2 Starts Tonight


Yeah thats right. I love the show Veronica Mars. It was, by far, the best new show on TV last season.

I know, I know it sounds lame…but if you watch an episode or two you will be hooked. I didn’t get hooked on it until I caught an episode earlier this summer and then proceeded to download and watch the entire first season. I have never been so into a season of TV like I got with Veronica Mars! (Plus it doesn’t hurt that the star, Kristen Bell, isn’t too bad on the eyes. A better picture after the jump…)

Here is your assignment: Find your local UPN channel, then watch Veronica Mars tonight at 9/8 cst. Because if the ratings are low and this show gets canceled, I’ll cry…and then I’ll have to post about how great “Lost” is like every other person in the world, and frankly, doing things that everyone is doing just isn’t my style.

How To Download iTunes Music Videos For Free

How’s about three “How To” posts in a row? Ok, great idea! Here’s another one:

Derek at Uneasy Silence has written a little PHP script that translates the iTunes links to regular links so that one could download videos from their servers.

Let me explain. The iTunes Music Store has music videos that you can play, for free, through the iTunes program (Which is really just a specialized web browser.) Well, Derek found the way to translate the links that are used in the store to links that you can access with any broswer (like Firefox)

So if you want to download any of the music videos on iTunes, just right click on the “Small” or “Large” links and copy them. Then head on over to his translator and paste in the link. It will then hand you back a regular link to download that Kelly Clarkson video you’ve had your eye on! Right? …Just me? Ok then, download whatever you want, but your missing out!

Learn How To Comment on a Site

I realize that no one really comments much on here. I always thought that it was because I say everything so wonderfully and completely that there is nothing for anyone else to add…or this site sucks. Turns out I was wrong on both counts! Maybe no one comments on any posts (other than the infamous Armstrong article of course) because no one knows how to do it correctly.

Lifehacker to the rescue with their post: Lifehacker’s guide to weblog comments
Here’s a quick tidbit from the article that I hope everyone out there starts following. It doesn’t happen on this site, but it happens a lot of other places and it is annoying as hell.

Don’t comment for the sake of commenting.

Commenters who only say “First!” or “Nice site” on an open thread have no business hitting that “Post” button at all. Further, only spammers comment for the sake of adding their name and URL to a web page. Useless comments will gain you the reputation for being a useless commenter.

Go read the article, empower yourself with the knowledge of how to comment correctly, then forget it and run out there and get as many “First Post!” comments you can get!

Impress Friends With Your One-Handed Card Shuffling

kuro5hin.org has an article up on “How To Shuffle and Cut a Deck of Cards One-Handed”. Its a well-written piece that shows how to both, shuffling and cut the cards, with one hand. Its a nice little trick. Too bad none of the other people you are playing poker with will be able to see it, with you playing Party Poker in your parents’ basement and all.

Apple Advertising On Howard

I was just listening to Howard Stern and I heard him do an ad that I really didn’t expect to hear: An iPod Nano ad. As Howard was trying to get through the ad’s copy he even mentioned that although he thinks its as thin as a credit card, “they” didn’t want him saying that.

It interesting to me that Apple is advertising on Howard. I never thought I would hear that…I know Apple certainly has the money but I just never thought about the pairing before.
