Multiple Zinio Subscriptions in One Account

November 25th, 2008 | 9 Comments | Posted in Websites

From my previous article Free Shutterbug Photography Magazine – Read Green Initiative allows only one email account. What you do is sign-up another email address multiple times just to get all of their free digital magazine subscriptions. Why waste of time if there’s a good way on how to get multiple subscriptions using one account? Thanks to Jeff of Too Much Few, for the great tip!

How To Get Multiple Zinio Subscriptions using One Account?

  1. 1. Open a Notepad or any text file application, copy and paste the link “http://www.zinio.com/delivery?issn=ipho-life&of=green&contacts_email=dsadsada” without the quotes (we will use this later)
  2. 2. Login your account on Zinio.com
  3. 3. Open a new tab/browser then visit Read Green Initiative website free subscription page
  4. 4. Choose your free magazine but don’t click on it, we will use another method instead of typing your fake email addresses on the subscription window.
  5. 5. For example, on the image below I choose Layers, right-click on it then click on Properties.
  6. 6. A properties window will appear, if you use Firefox then it will be easy for you to do this. Look for the image url on Location under Image Properties and copy that link (e.g. http://www.zinio.com/img?issn=LayersR-003&size=155)

  7. 7. Now let’s go back to your Notepad, and paste the link there. Don’t overwrite the previous link or else you might get lost. We now have two links on a separate lines

    8. http://www.zinio.com/delivery?issn=ipho-life&of=green&contacts_email=dsadsada

    http://www.zinio.com/img?issn=LayersR-003&size=155

  8. 8. Bold letters are the values of your free magazine subscription, just copy the LayersR-003 and replace ipho-life. Copy and paste the new link on your browser. That’s it, you will now have your new free magazine subscription on your MyLibrary page. Just repeat the steps and you will have multiple free digital magazines!

    9. img-520-howto_freemag_1

You may check out other free digital magazine subscriptions at Zinio.com.

Note: You must only put the values before "&of" and after "issn="
in order for this to work properly.

How To : CSS Rounded Corners

November 19th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in CSS

Rounded corners can be done very easily, and offer a nice and round effect to otherwise nasty boxes. With just a few images, and a couple lines of CSS we can spice up our boxes, and break out of the right-angle madness!

1. This is the old style of just having nice colorful <div> on your page. And now we will gonna change it from old style to the new style. We will start here.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”>
<html xmlns=”http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml”>
<head>
<meta http-equiv=”Content-Type” content=”text/html; charset=iso-8859-1″ />
<title>Rounded Corners</title>
</head>
<style type=”text/css”>
#container
{
background:#333333;
color:#FFFFFF;
font:12px Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
line-height:150%;
margin:0 auto;
padding:20px;
width:650px;
}

</style>

<body>
<div id=”container”>
Lorem ipsum vel ex nonumy meliore deleniti, eam prima soleat diceret id. Ne zzril aliquyam perfecto vel.
Lorem aliquam abhorreant duo cu, adhuc invidunt convenire id vix, regione aliquyam constituam mei ex. Cu duo congue cetero euripidis.
Est ad vitae tamquam adipisci, ne erant discere invenire qui, ad inani fabulas albucius vel. Ut ubique labore melius pro, cu vix dicat facilisi senserit.
Ut sit persius ceteros postulant, his illum fastidii scriptorem no.
</div>
</body>
</html>

How To : Install Your WordPress (self-hosted)

October 31st, 2008 | 3 Comments | Posted in Featured, WordPress

For the last few weeks, I have been installing WordPress (self-hosted) for so many times. I received some script errors and sometimes I can’t get through inside my administration panel. What’s the cause? Maybe, due to installing lots of plugins without knowing if all of them will work or compatible with the theme that I am using.

Anyway, that’s ain’t my purpose in writing this post. I just like to share my own ways/steps in installing WordPress (self-hosted) in order to have a clean and organize installation of your WordPress.
