BurnAware Free Edition

BurnAware Free EditionLooking for a replacement to your favorite burning application? There are many out there, but a new one to catch me by the nose and take me for a ride is BurnAware Free Edition. The package of disk burning tools is simple, but has enough to make it powerful enough to replace some of the classic crapfests that you can buy.

Thanks to companies bundling over thirty or forty different tools in with the big burning sofware packages (I’m looking at you Nero) I have been left to look at BurnAware Free Edition as an alternative. What does it deliver? Continue Reading →

More Free Photo Hosting – ImageThrust

ImageThrust.comAfter writing about SendSpace the other day, somebody pointed me in the direction of ImageThrust. I like the fact that the interface looks simple and clean. Here is a little more information on them.

If you want to keep track of your uploaded images you need a free account, it just take a second to sign up and you can start uploading images directly into your account within seconds. You need to create this account before uploading any images since we cannot keep track of images that is not attached with an free account.

As you can see, they want you to create an account as well. I don’t have that big of a problem with it, as long as they give me a quick alternative for hosting photos quickly. Sometimes I don’t have time to go through a sign up, I just want to get something uploaded to show friends, family, or crazy Uncle Fred. To get an idea of what the service will look like after you have uploaded something, check out the public photo galleries.

For the most part, ImageThrust does a few things pretty well, and makes for another nice quick photo hosting alternative.

Flash image viewers are becoming more and more popular these days. I ran across one today that is as good as some of the big expensive ones out there, but it is available for you for no price at all.

SimpleViewer is a easily customizable gallery viewer. I have been looking for something like this to display some of my art on a future project. This project might not be as updated as some others, so I do not need a really complicated way of posting things. I just need an easy interface that I can slap images into. SimpleViewer does just that.
