How to install a WHMCS Theme


Today my task at work is to install a WHMCS Theme from whmcsthemes.com. WHMCS Themes has this theme installation instruction video, but I find it a bit difficult to follow cos I have to pause from time to time. So I took down notes in Notepad. And in case there are people searching for these, here they are:

How to transfer contacts from O2 Xda Atom Exec phone to Samsung Galaxy 5 GT-i5503


I think this is my first ever blog entry about gadgets. lol. I’m not really into gadgets but I ran into a problem last night, so I thought I’d post the solution here.

’twas a troublesome night and morning for me. Since last night I was trying to export / copy all O2 Xda Atom Exec phone contacts into a SIM card. This old cellphone, O2 Xda Atom Exec, by default, can only “Save to SIM” contacts individually. There’s no multiple selection. What I wanted to do was export the O2 Atom contacts into a SIM card, and from the SIM card export to another phone – Samsung Galaxy 5 GT-I5503… or is it GT-15503? :)

I had so much trouble doing this last night, and I won’t elaborate that anymore. Here’s the hassle-free (or less hassle) way of moving your contacts from your O2 Xda Atom Exec phone into Samsung Galaxy 5 GT-I5503. This might work too even if the other phone isn’t Samsung Galaxy 5 GT-I5503.

Please bear with me – always mentioning the full model names of the phones! lol.

Skype: How to minimize to system tray in Windows 7


I’ve been using Skype to communicate with some colleagues and my boss, for my part time job as web developer & graphic designer.

There’s one thing that often annoyed me, regarding the Skype window. When I am busy working and have a lot of windows open, and want to minimize Skype to the system tray, it won’t do what I want it to. When I click on the “Close” button of Skype it just minimizes to the task bar. What I want is for Skype to minimize into the system tray when I close its window even when I’m still signed in. Yahoo! Messenger does that for me.

The solution for this is…

Fix PNG images with transparency in older Windows Internet Explorer versions


I wonder if this post would still get hits from search engine result pages. So many other web pages feature this fix for IE 5.5 and IE 6 web browser, that the Catzie.net Blog’s entry might just show up on the… 10th page or so. lol.

Anyways, I’m still posting this, in case there are some visitors browsing around who need help with properly displaying the transparency of .PNG images in IE5.5 and IE6. This also helps me easily find the needed code to fix the display. I need it from time to time when I design website layouts. :)

Tip: Most of us are probably using the newer versions of Internet Explorer. I suggest that you download and use the IE Tester. It’s a web browser that lets you see how web pages render in different versions of IE – 5.5, 6, 7, and 8.

I assume that as you read this, you are using Internet Explorer version 5.5, or the version 5.5 tab on the IE Tester.
