Image Maps

When you have quite a constrictive CMS as I do in work and you want to make sections of a single image into links, the easiest way is to make an image map and this website does a pretty good job of it!

just remember to go into the HTML and edit the image source as they only keep it on their server for 2 days and you may then wonder why you have broken images.

Cupcake Recipe that works

4oz self raising flour
40z butter
4oz caster sugar
2 eggs
1 tea spoon of baking powder
1 teaspoon of vanilla essence

 

Whisk the butter then add the sugar then the 2 eggs then vanilla essence
Add flour gradually so it thickens along with baking powder

Then put them in to your cake cases (i usually use muffin cases) and pop them in the oven on gas mark 4 (pre-heated) for about half an hour – 40 minutes. I’d turn the tray round after 15 minutes they are ready when they spring back up when pressed on the top.

That recipe usually makes about 12 cupcakes!

For the butter cream its 150g of butter(soft) whisk that then add 125g of icing sugar then add another 125g of icing sugar……i usually use a box though to make it thicker it pipes  better like that!

Website background images

I created a photoshop coming soon page for my website and it was too small to stretch the whole page so I found the code below. Additionally the image will resize if you resize the browser.

<!--
html {
background: url(images/indeximg.gif) no-repeat center center fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}
