Favicons on Semiomantics

When Branding your website you may want to add a little favicon that appears in the browser when anyone looks at your website.

From the various places that allow us to create such favicons, Ycademy suggests to use this tool here.

However, things may differ from script to script; so I add a little write-up of how to create a favicon when using a Semiomantics Script.

Favicons on Semiomantics

In the case of setting up a little favicon on Semiomantics – meaning your Semiomantics based Blog or Website -, you simply go to the site I indicated above and under “Image to create Icon from” you browse to your picture folder and search for the little picture you wish to use.

Here it is important to bear in mind that that picture will be tiny as you will see in the 16×16 FavIcon preview. It needs to nevertheless be sharp. So think of a simple form or a single letter and create a picture for this in your Photoshop. While I have several variations, the one I use currently is a simple B in the font I am using all over. . . but I created that picture in a much bigger format first. You can use jpg, gif, png and bmp – and if you need a transparency, use a gif or a png – the maximum file size being 150.00 kb.

So once you have browsed to your favorite flavicon on your harddrive, click on “Create Favicon” and if it’s what you want as you can see under “Preview”, then click on “Download Favicon”. I saved it automatically in my Download Folder.

As a next step, I uploaded this favicon straight into my www where I want to use it, a simple copy/paste transfer.

Next you test it – like in my case on http://biancagubalke.com/favicon.ico

Now comes the tricky part as you are instructed to insert a little code in the head section of your pages… right? And now you wonder… and that’s where Semiomantics Scripts come in with their forward planning setup: you do not need to do anymore when using Favicons on Semiomantics Scripts!

Relax… and see your favicon appearing sooner or later…  while you can continue with your day.

Attention: Fake Facebook Mails

Like banks, Paypal, Twitter and others, Facebook is increasingly subject to phishing scams. How to recognize Phishing and Fake Mails?

Phishing for Facebook

The first goal of the scam is to obtain your login credentials to your Facebook account. Here is the mail I have just received:

Facebook Phishing Mail

1. The sender email address looks suspicious.

2. The receiving address is not an email address registered with Facebook, in fact this address does not exist but comes through based on the catch-all function of the mail box.

3. The Subject line is not capitalized – suspicious.

4. if you pass your mouse over (don’t click!) the update button or over the

5. … “click here” link, you see at the bottom of your frame the actual…

6. …target address. The address is not a facebook address, but some scam sub-domain of a .co.uk domain.

How to deal with Phishing Mails

Turn on phishing filters in your system and security software.

Never click on any link in a suspicious mail! Block sender and delete the mail.

You may report the issue to Facebook providing full headers and eventual source code of the mail.

What this Phishing Scam does

If you follow the link in the mail, you are directed to a fake Facebook Login screen with your email address allready filled in. The password field is blank. If you fill in the password, the cyber criminals get full access to your facebook account.

But there is worse:

Zeus Banking Trojan

A pop-up appears inviting you to download an “update tool” which actually installs “ZeuS banking Trojan”. This Trojan waits to steal your banking data next time you type them in.

Check out the Facebook security page for further info.

YORGOO Free Leads and Free Traffic

Time has come to refocus YORGOO. The bases for YORGOO, back in 2005, were Traffic Exchange Programs, Safe-lists and related programs, corresponding to the needs of low-budget Home Business developers.

Free Leads

Free Leads has always been a major YORGOO Keyword. Connecting people and allowing for teams to work together on traffic and lead generation was a great way to develop income at a time when many online businesses were based on building vertical referral structures.

YORGOO Free Leads on Google Top 10

Free Traffic

Free traffic by using free programs to promote lead capture pages has built for many a first online income. The growing importance of Google Traffic a few years ago, also for home business builders and the increasing cost of Google Ads, lead YORGOO to refocus it’s action 2 years ago; together with it’s online Educational Program Ycademy and with Semiomantics,YORGOO subscribers started to build highly visible niche sites based WordPress and powered by Semiomantics. The goal was to conquer Google top 10 spots on relevant keywords with well edited and published quality content.

The success is visible all over Google where we have been building content.

Web 2.0 and Social Networks

Web 2.0 developments, namely the arrival and success of social networks opened new avenues for online business developers, namely in the field of Lead Generation. While these social networks, such as MySpace and Facebook have been closed environments for a long time, they have started to open access and to allow for a better flow and exchange of information and content.

Social Networks attract people and generate traffic second only to Google. It is therefore important to provide services which help home business developers to make their products and services available in these high traffic environments associated with a personal profile and behavior which inspires confidence and trust.

YORGOO and Social Networks

The present program software and content of YORGOO are outdated and do not allow for development into the direction we need to target. Development and implementation of new YORGOO program software and products will take an estimated 3 months.

We will therefore temporarily take down YORGOO from the net to develop and release a new, future oriented site by January 29, 2010, the 5th anniversary of YORGOO.

More to come.

Windows Live Movie Maker for Facebook

When starting to use the new Windows Live Pack and namely the Movie Maker you will immediately notice that Microsoft aims to make things simple, focusing on essentials and features most users want and concentrate on. This Apple like Mikey Mouse approach to things will be welcomed by the average user.

Windows Live Movie Maker includes an integrated up-loader for publishing on YouTube. To post your Pictures to Facebook, a plug-in is available.

Facebook Plug-in

The Facebook plug-in allows you to easily upload your pictures and videos to Facebook including the peoples tags you may have created.

Windows 7 Security

I have been asked about Windows 7 Security and Anti-virus packs. Here is what I am using on my main system which hangs 24/24 on the internet.

Join tonight’s Ycademy call at 8 pm London to learn more and to implement your Windows Security.

Firewall for Windows 7

When 2 years back I uninstalled my Norton Internet Security pack, it was as if my Computer started breathing again. Nothing against the quality of Norton’s filters, but the program was so heavy, that my performance was suffering notably. Also, and this I noticed with most security programs, the interface is not really user-friendly. You need a PhD in firewall configuration in order to use the software efficiently. The basic settings are too timid and tend to scare people more than assuring them because of all the pop-ups indicating that Norton has just saved you again from a Trojan Horse, a Dragon, a witch or other horrors.

My experience is that the Windows Firewall is largely good enough for average and professional users. Maybe that real IT freaks miss all the little buttons and tabs to fine tune the configuration, but that’s a negligible minority anyway. (Yeahhh, I am one of those…).

So, with your Windows 7 just use your Windows Firewall in stead of charging your system with a heavy program (and your budget with 50 bucks per year).

In any case, don’t use two Firewalls; if you use an external program for the purpose, disable the Windows Firewall as running both will result in conflicting behaviors!

Antivirus for Windows 7

Without listing all the popular free and paid programs let me just recommend the

Microsoft Security Essentials

You can use them also on other Windows driven systems. The pack provides an antivirus solution which integrates perfectly with your Windows.

Microsoft Security Essentials are a Beta version (but then, what’s not beta these days anyway – Vista should never have made it even to beta :-)) and it’s free, provided you run Genuine Windows Software.

Microsoft Security Essentials

“Microsoft Security Essentials provides real-time protection for your home PC that guards against viruses, spyware, and other malicious software.

Microsoft Security Essentials is a free* download from Microsoft that is simple to install, easy to use, and always kept up to date so you can be assured your PC is protected by the latest technology. It’s easy to tell if your PC is secure — when you’re green, you’re good. It’s that simple.

Microsoft Security Essentials runs quietly and efficiently in the background so that you are free to use your Windows-based PC the way you want—without interruptions or long computer wait times.” (As per Microsoft)

The user interface is clear, easy to use and to set up. Read more about Alert Levels.

Why look for complex and costly solutions if an integrated solution is available for free?

PS: The Security Essentials are hooked to Microsoft’s SpyNet – read the terms.

Fancy Fonts Headers

To give some ideas for fancy fonts headers I have prepared some files you may download and use as the case may be. They consist of a 1024 x 200 pixels Photoshop file (which can be edited in GIMP as well). Please download and install the fonts before editing.

1. Fancy Header Fonts

Some Fancy Fonts including Cats Alphabet, Zebra, Lost World, Amadeus, download HERE.

Unzip and place the .ttf files in Windows/Fonts on your main hard drive (C usually).

2. Samples of Fancy Font Headers

Some applications with the above fonts.

3. Ute Schaedler Special Fitness Font

I have the sneaky suspicion that these fonts, at least some letters could also interest Gene Line .

4.  Download Photoshop Header Files

The PSD files can be downloaded from HERE.

Unzip and open with Photoshop or GIMP.
