Check it out!), nine more photos are by Thomas, two photos were submitted by Rachel, and the last six were submitted by me. You can see all the latest stock photos (and more) by clicking here.

If you are an aspiring web-developer, which you probably are, then you obviously aren't using any versions of Internet Explorer. However, I think (and I would do anyway) that you should switch to Google Chrome if you haven't yet. Despite speed, functionality, design and all those generic arguments for the average person browsing the Internet, there are arguments specifically to convince the web-developer to make the change.

Voting has begun for our "Your Part of the World" photography competition! Take your time voting, because there are 10 entries. Also, because of the theme, which was to submit a photograph that represents your home or your part of the world, expect the entries to differ a lot. Plus, don't catch yourself voting for your favorite place. This is a photography competition. Vote for the entry you think is the best photograph overall. The winner will win two weeks of free advertisement. And if the votes are close (or if there is a tie), I'll give out a second prize of free advertisement either to the tie or to second place. So good luck to the entrants! You can look through the submissions and vote here. I personally enjoyed reading all the descriptions for the entries. =)

We have reached yet another major milestone in our goal to reach 1000 stock photos: 861 stock photos!

Although I think I missed out on writing an update for Thursday or Friday or something... Anyway, here are the stats for the photos in this update. Click on the number to search up the stock photos by that person:

Thomas: 169 stock photos
Aashni: 37 stock photos
Scarlett: 30 stock photos
Anna: 10 stock photos
Jules: 8 stock photos

Also, good news! I've set up a system that will allow me to process, resize, and save stock photo submissions with just one click! So be sure to keep submitting, they'll be approved in time for the next update. =)

I added 6 new Javascript Scripts to the scripts section. Total Characters with Javascript is probably the most use full script. You type in a textarea and it will tell you how many characters you entered. Back and Forward with Javascript works just like the back and forward buttons in your internet browser but of course this will only work if the visitor on your site has Javascript enabled.

Since IceCaves has reached 500 members, Kyra and I thought we should have one page which contains links and helps new members when they are new to the site. So Kyra and I created a user-friendly guide to all the hidden-pages scattered around IC. Click here to read IceCaves For Dummies!
