This site was built
and designed using freeware and
Open-Source.
The graphics were
rendered under 'The GIMP', ...under Win32 and
Linux platforms.
Site design / editing
were originally done using 'KompoZer' - with
the TIDY plug-in installed for Mozilla, to
keep my coding halfway within validation
(Win32 and Linux), then final editing was
performed within PSPad (Win32) to straighten
out the coding and to validate it. Within
Linux, this is done using Quanta+ or Bluefish.
This site has been recently edited under, as the
image above would indicate, my new Linux platform. Mandriva and
openSUSE were my new choice in operating systems for a few years
there... Now, I'm feeling rather comfortable with PCLinuxOS 2010. For
more about this, please visit my 'Linux' page. More will be added at a
later date.
Who knows, I may end up
'porting' this site to PHP / MySQL driven.
For now, just CSS, HTML, DHTML, Java
/JavaScript, and a little experimental flash
(swf) formatted content.
I had originally
built/developed this site as a
cross-platform project between Win32 and
Linux dedicated drives. At any
rate... I now have a nice web-space to
fill, to the best of my ability, with
quality content. I
will be placing a few alternative options
within the sections of this
site.
For a bit on my
Web-Dev abilities:
Below is a link to the
portion of this site that has to do with the
application that has had one thing, or an
other, to do with 99% of the graphics within
my sites & interface works. The GIMP has
come a long way from the old 1.2*
versions.
The latest installs
(v2.6*) for the Win32 platform offer some
nice 'out of the box' functions, which
include python plugin support.
I also have a small page concerning my
latest project
converting The GIMP to run from a
USB-2 flashdrive!
Check it out here: GIMP -2.6.5 via
USB-2
One main purpose for
this site is to convey my potentials in
computing, in hopes of eventually gaining
employment within this field. I am not being
particular to any certain areas of
development. There are simply too many
directions in which I could become employed.
Though my training would indicate strengths
in hardware support, my actual strong points
are in areas of software support and system
configurations within Win32 and Linux based
systems. If there are any employers
interested in what this site has brought to
view, or if any feel that they may have a
specific use for my abilities, please contact
me.
I am interested in
employment possibilities within the
Cincinnati, Ohio (US) area, though there are
many possibilities in employment
opportunities being performed via internet.
(With my being able to work from my home
system.) -Serious inquiries only, please.

This site contains
information pertaining to applications of
'beta' status.
Though the applications
run fine on my system, this does not mean
that you will have the same abilities, as
systems vary in configuration. 'Before' you
install / use any of the software here, it is
highly recommended that you read the 'ReadMe
and Documentations' when available. This step
alone can save you allot of bad experiences
with improper setups, etc...
I, Gary Ingram, accept
'no' responsibility for what 'you' do with
your system, nor will I accept any
responsibility for information you may lose
as a result of your mis-use of said
applications. There's some really great free
and open-source solutions out there... you
just have to use a little common sense.
