IconWorkshop Lite for Visual Studio 2008
As part of its dramatic User-Interface overhaul, Windows Vista added support for high-definition 256×256 pixel application icons. Unfortunately, Visual Studio 2008’s lackluster icon editor offers no support for the new standard.
Thankfully, the Visual C++ Team Blog brings word of a free ‘Lite’ edition of the impressive IconWorkshop from Axialis Software. IconWorkshop Lite even integrates directly into Visual Studio 2008.
The software is available here, and the Visual C++ Team Blog announcement is here.
Someone needs to let McCain know The Cold War is over
When asked to respond to the escalating conflict in Georgia, John McCain took a much harder line on Russia than Obama, the Bush Administration, Europe and The UN:
While Obama offered a response largely in line with statements issued by democratically elected world leaders, including President Bush, first calling on both sides to negotiate, John McCain took a remarkably — and uniquely — more aggressive stance, siding clearly with Georgia’s pro-Western leaders and placing the blame for the conflict entirely on Russia.
This is not the first time John McCain has taken a curiously confrontational stance on Russia; his calls for The Federation to be expelled from the G8 is particularly alarming (especially considering that no other G8 nation has any intention of complying with McCain’s proposal, and as such must be construed as an example of personal animosity rather than a well-reasoned political maneuver or posture). Someone needs to let McCain know The Cold War is over.
