Favicon Design

Who would like to design the Favicon for this blog? I would love to make it a contest but im afraid that I have nothing to give away as a prize. I will be designing a temporary Favicon for the blog but I figured that I could leave it up to my viewers to design and decide which favicon wins and will be the official Random How To favicon. Once your image is made, it needs to be sized to 57px x 57px and saved as a .PNG file at 72dpi. Name the file apple-touch-icon.png and email it to me. Once the favicon is finished and applied to my blog it will have a home screen icon for Iphone users when they add my site as a bookmark to their home screen. If you like the idea of this please let me know in the comments and if you have anything to submit please send it to me via email at jpjelmore@gmail.com Subject: Favicon Random How To so that I can easily spot the submission in all of my other emails. I hope to get some submissions coming up int he next few days or weeks. I cant wait to see what you all send me. Thanks and Good Luck!

Mobile Browser Compatible

Random How To is now mobile web browser compatible.

Ive been going through the settings and seeing what is new with blogger and I noticed the option to set up mobile view. With the increase of smartphones and tablets on the market as well as seeing that there have been viewers from mobile devices I decided to enable mobile view. Now you can easily view my blog from your phone.

I also set up the ability to snap photos with my iPhone and send them directly to my blog as a new post. I think that is a pretty cool feature. Ive already been messing around with the blogger app for ios.

I hope to have some new content to post but most times when I am working on a project I never think to grab my camera and take some pictures along the way. There have been countless projects I have worked on since the creation of this blog but most of the time I forget that it is even here until I receive an email when I have new comments.

My Arduino Clone

Looking for suggestions!

Anyone who has an idea for a "how to" please share it in the comments. If there is something you need help with let me know and I will try my best to assist you.

I will be going over the comments on the laser tutorial and trying to answer any unanswered questions there are.

I could really use some ideas though to get this blog rolling again.

Donations for parts to continue tutorial?

If anyone wishes to donate some money so that I can order the parts needed to build the circuit for the DIY laser tutorial then I will gladly do a step by step HD video of soldering it all together. I know that I said I would add on to or finish the tutorial. For the most part it is finished. Everything you need to know is already in the tutorial. I had just planned on making an assembly video to further simplify is for people who have little to or no experience soldering circuits.

If donating a few bucks is something you are interested in doing let me know. The money will go to my PayPal account and pretty much be stuck there so I would need to find a source online to order the parts that accepts PayPal. If you know of a place let me know.
