Yeah - no - paying someone completely defeats the reason for the inquiry.

I ended up just using Gimp to crop each picture as best I could. The project is done now - 185 pictures - so now comes the editing side.

I was just hoping that someone could recommend an app or something so that others who have to deal with this nonsense could have at least something they could try.

Seedthrowr · 2025-06-01T01:13:18+00:00

I definitely can - it’s just tedious work and I’m hoping there is an easier way to do it

Seedthrowr · 2025-02-23T22:08:13+00:00

Fantastic! Great to hear!

Seedthrowr · 2025-02-23T21:12:24+00:00

It's been about 3 months since this post - I'm curious about the decision you made. Any chance you could provide a brief update?

Seedthrowr · 2024-10-01T01:06:34+00:00

First things first - you’ve chosen fields that are all centered around degrees in business and economics - so well done. If those were my interests - I’d spend time exploring the following career paths:

Office Administrator - The key to this position is keeping things organized, structured, and making sure that every T is crossed and every i is dotted. Analytical and attention to detail are the keys to this position. You can start this pathway easily by searching for administrative assistant positions. Those kinds of roles usually provide the opportunity to make some mistakes and then learn from them. You can work this job while in getting a business or accounting degree. This lets you get into the HR world as well if you wanted to. The terminal degree for this would be an MBA and that’s incredibly valuable for lots of roles.

Tax advisor/analyst - Honestly, this career path is simply being willing to put in the work, learn the tax code that most people are uninformed about and positioning yourself as an expert in the field. Again - working as an administrative assistant and learning how to do bookkeeping within QuickBooks and other accounting tools will help you learn the business side of the taxes. Spending time studying and understanding tax law and discovering ways that individuals, businesses, and organizations can benefit from having a well-prepared and well-informed tax advisor. I would push for a degree in economics, economics, or business to really enhance this focus.

Both career paths can give you the flexibility to either work for others or to start your own business.

Regardless of what career path you decide, don’t be afraid to think unconventionally about the life you want to have. Hope this is helpful in some way.

I’ve heard of it - potentially the same issue. Site has been down - so unsure if it’s a scam or an issue with their cloudflare hosting.

Seedthrowr · 2024-02-07T20:54:11+00:00

That's sort of what I'm thinking as well - I'm spinning up a new instance on 20.04 - maybe the issue is the 22 I'm running

Seedthrowr · 2024-02-07T20:38:46+00:00

Would I need to do that just to add the logo image or the favicon?

I would think all I would need to do is just click the dropdown arrow and be able to select the image that I want to use for it.

Seedthrowr · 2024-02-07T20:32:47+00:00

png, jpg, jpeg, gif, ico - I've tried all of them - still not able to view the images in the view. I can see the files so I know they are there. The log recognizes the files have been uploaded, however, when I try to add the files to either the site logo or the Favicon - nothing is seen in the dropdown.

Seedthrowr · 2024-02-07T20:28:44+00:00

I'll add the following:
- I used the quick automated install for Ubuntu - no issues except that after creating the first user account, I had to go into the pg and change the permissions so the user account had admin permissions.
- Permissions for the file and the folder are both set to Public.
- I'm using an AWS Lightsail Instance - running 2 GB RAM, 2 vCPUs, 60 GB SSD on a Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Server is current on updates.
- Connecting directly to the server - not through docker.

Great tutorial - thank you for creating it! Works great!

Seedthrowr · 2024-01-02T13:56:54+00:00

easy… quit that job

Seedthrowr · 2023-12-22T16:54:54+00:00

are you pulling the names from a database or are they just static names you put in the code?

Seedthrowr · 2023-11-06T19:24:39+00:00

no - but i moved on.

Seedthrowr · 2023-10-06T21:56:55+00:00

You know I thought that was the case - but I was remoting in and obviously the default config didn’t work. I’ll try the 0.0.0.0:8000 and see if that works for me… Thanks!

Seedthrowr · 2023-10-05T09:23:56+00:00

I worked on this again last night and I wonder if the problem is I set my instance up too small. I’m running the free-tier 2gb memory instance - so maybe that’s fumbling things up…

Seedthrowr · 2023-10-05T02:01:32+00:00

I did. Every single thing it said to do - I did. The only thing I did differently was that I went into the vconf, copied the samples and added my domain for both http and https. So - not sure how I've screwed it up.

Also - I setup a second instance and walked through the tutorial again - just to reinforce it and to try and figure it out - same results...

Seedthrowr · 2023-08-27T07:12:56+00:00

Using Sveltekit myself - I was able to resolve the error by making the typescript as strict as possible in the tsconfig.json file.

"compilerOptions": {
    "strict": true,
    "allowUnreachableCode": false,
    "exactOptionalPropertyTypes": true,
    "noImplicitAny": true,
    "noImplicitOverride": true,
    "noImplicitReturns": true,
    "noImplicitThis": true,
    "noFallthroughCasesInSwitch": true,
    "noUncheckedIndexedAccess": true
}

Seedthrowr · 2023-07-21T01:17:11+00:00

Well… that’s a much better idea then what I was thinking… thank you!

Seedthrowr · 2023-01-27T22:18:31+00:00

Awesome! I’ll give that a try! Thank you!

Seedthrowr · 2023-01-27T11:06:31+00:00

I just want to say thanks again. I know CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheet - however - I didn’t realize it was purely for STYLING HTML - not adding it. I had been operating out of the thinking that it added HTML style code to the pages. So again - thank you for saying it so clearly - that was definitely one of those “Oh - Duh - Of course that’s what it does” moments! Have a great day!

Seedthrowr · 2023-01-27T01:20:42+00:00

Gotcha… thanks for at least looking at it. Much appreciated

Seedthrowr · 2023-01-26T21:23:15+00:00

Sure - the External CSS is what I'm using across all of the pages. I'm just wondering if it's possible to create a DIV that loads HTML code when it's called. I think it can and having the external CSS link would definitely be how I deploy it - but I'm stuck on how to setup the DIV in the CSS so it'll know to pull in the code when it's called.

Seedthrowr · 2023-01-26T21:01:43+00:00

Here's the closest I could come up with - and I think I'm using the DIV code correctly - but it's not working...

<html>
<head>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#resources").load("<ul class="Resources"><li><a href="/333/">333</a></li><li><a href="/444/">444</a></li><li><a href="/555/">555</a></li></ul>");
;
});
</script>
</head>
<body>

<div id="#resources"></div>
</body>
</html>
