Okay so I’ve blogged these before elsewhere.
But they are just so good.
Yeah paper clips are nice. But these are way smarter. They make your documents look all nice and professional in one easy move.
And they are fun to use.
They are Rapesco Supaclips. You fill the plastic gadget with clips. You find some paper you want to clip together and you slot it in the end of the gadget. There’s a sliding mechanism on the gadget that you push and hey presto a clip pops forward, grabs the pages and holds them together. Nicely and neatly.
And the clips are reusable.
And actually its quite fun to use the gadget to fire clips across the office. But thats a bit naughty so make sure the boss isn’t watching or you are the boss so you can do what you like ;0
Go on make your documents look supa (TM) smart….
One of the little tricks that makes a website or blog look just that bit neater is to have a favicon next to your site address in the browser address bar that reflects your branding.
To do this you first need a simple graphic that will look good very small, so don’t go crazy on detail.
Then you need to turn it into the right kind of file type, thats an .ico file.
How do you do this?
You take your jpg (or other file) file and you upload to a tool like this:
Where you can play with it a bit or just convert it straight to ico format and download it again.
Ready to use.
I like it.
And if the person who built your site hasn’t done this for you well maybe ask them why not….

I’ve been doing some bits and pieces of web design recently in Wordpress.
One of the tools I really like for picking colour schemes or playing with palettes is Color Scheme Designer.
There’s hours of endless fun to be had coming up with bonkers schemes.
And of course it is very helpful when you need to design a scheme or adapt one for some one.
