			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This was driving me mad. Everytime I put my iMac to sleep, like an overexcited child, it refused&#8230;</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s how to diagnose the cause. Open the terminal &amp; type:</p>
<pre>pmset -g assertions</pre>
<p>You&#8217;ll then get a list looking something like this:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pixelspring.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/osxlionnosleep.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-156" title="osxlionnosleep" src="http://www.pixelspring.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/osxlionnosleep.png" alt="OS X Lion Not Sleeping" width="522" height="234" /></a></p>
<p>&#8220;PreventSystemSleep&#8221; is what you&#8217;re looking for. In my case the owning process stopping my iMac from sleeping was org.cups.cupsd. <a href="http://www.cups.org/">Cups</a> is the print system, so after turning off printer sharing in my system preferences pane, my insomniac iMac finally got to sleep.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Introduced in iOS 3.2, we now have the ability to include custom fonts (ttf &amp; otf) in a NimbleKit project. It&#8217;s easy to do &amp; only takes a few steps.</h2>
<h3>Add The Font File</h3>
<p>In this example, I&#8217;m using <a href="http://www.tenbytwenty.com/nevis.php">Nevis</a> as the font. In your &#8220;Groups &amp; Files&#8221; pane in Xcode, drag &#8216;nevis.ttf&#8217; into your &#8216;Resources&#8217; folder, ticking the &#8220;Copy items into destination group&#8217;s folder (if needed)&#8221;, if your font file isn&#8217;t already in the folder.</p>
<h3>Add Entry to info.plist</h3>
<p>Now in your info.plist file, add a new key. Click on the last item and then click the + sign that appears on the r/h side. In your new key, you can select &#8220;Font provided by application&#8221; or type &#8220;UIAppFonts&#8221; (which should resolve to &#8216;Font provided by application&#8217;), then in the value box for &#8216;Item 0&#8242; enter your fonts full name &amp; extension &#8211; in this case, &#8220;nevis.ttf&#8221;.</p>
<h3>Style your text with CSS</h3>
<p>For the purposes of this demo, I&#8217;m using an inline style but feel free to define it how you like:</p>
<pre>body {
   font: normal 60px/150% nevis;
   color: #fff;
   text-shadow: 0px -1px 0px #000;
   background-image: url(nk_background.png);
}</pre>
<p>That&#8217;s pretty much it &#8211; any questions, feel free to leave a comment.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;d been looking for a code snippet manager for a while but all the applications that I&#8217;d tried previously had either been clunky or expensive. With the release of the Mac App Store, the first category I headed to was &#8220;Developer Tools&#8221;, just out of interest to see what Apple had approved &#8211; and I found an absolute gem.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.codeboxapp.com/">CodeBox</a>, made by Vadim Shpakovski (<a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/codebox/id412536790?mt=12&#038;ls=1">app store link</a>) fitted my needs perfectly. A menubar item that lets you add code directly into your project, the ability to create a new snippet from the clipboard, editing of snippets in an external program &#038; comprehensive tagging and categorisation of snippets.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.pixelspring.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/CodeBoxAppScreen.png" alt="CodeBox App" title="CodeBox for OSX"  /></a></p>
<p>The only enhancement I would like to see would be the ability to sync across multiple computers, but this is being added by the dev in a future update.</p>
<p>Oh, and the best thing about the app? The price &#8211; $4.99.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[The official Bookroom Art Press app for iOS]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fascinated by mid-20th century art prints? Download the Art Press App.</p>
<p>This is a guide to individual artists and their images, their biographies, their use of media from watercolour to oil, wood engraving to linocut. There’s information on the content they portrayed, the relationships between artists and even snippets on their art-historical contexts.</p>
<p>From top limited-edition art publishers at The Bookroom Art Press, this is not only an easy to use reference guide but a visual feast of art.</p>
<p>✓ <em>Comprehensive biographies of all of our artists.</em><br />
✓ <em>Image galleries for all artists.</em><br />
✓ <em>The latest art news from The Bookroom Art Press.</em><br />
✓ <em>Interactive map &amp; tools for contacting the press.</em></p>
<p>Our artist biographies include Eric Ravilious, Edward Bawden, Cyril Power, Paul Nash, Clare Leighton, Edward Wadsworth, Vanessa Bell and many more &#8211; all are accompanied by stunning images of the artworks.</p>
<p>The Bookroom Art Press specialises in the printing and sale of highest quality reproduction prints. The art selected for our prints derives from British artists working in the twentieth century &#8211; specifically from artists working in the 1930&#8242;s to the 1960&#8242;s. Most of our images are printed as limited-edition prints.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For the obligatory first post, I&#8217;d like to announce that Pixelspring has a new website. If you have a <em>proper browser</em> try resizing your browser window. For those of you still stuck with IE6, it will quite possible look a little rough round the edges &#8211; this isn&#8217;t due to laziness on my part but this article lays out the reasons very well:</p>
<p.<a href="http://www.browserupgrade.info/ie6/">Why Should I Upgrade My Browser?</a></p>
<p>OK, moan over&#8230; Stay tuned for more articles and goodies!</p>

<p>Well, worry no more &#8211; Art Critic to the rescue!</p>
<p>The app will generate a suitable pretentious arty quote for you to confidently state and will impress anyone within earshot. And all to a wonderfully Art-Tastic jazz soundtrack.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s impossible to overstate how much this will improve your standing within the Art community. Prepare yourself for adoration, fame, fortune and jealous onlookers who don&#8217;t have the quotes like you now do*</p>
<h2>Updated in v1.1</h2>
<p>New &#8220;Shake for Phrase&#8221; function<br />
More phrases.</p>
<p><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/art-critic/id328551706?mt=8"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-59" title="Available On The App Store" src="http://www.pixelspring.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/aotas.png" alt="Art  Critic is Available On The App Store" width="160" height="61" /></a></p>
