Tutorial: Solution for Java Runtime Environment Error in Flash CS 4 and ActionScript 3
December 18th, 2010
This is just a really quick post to hopefully help anyone out that may be running into the same annoying problem I was with Flash CS4 and ActionScript 3 on Apple OS X (specifically 10.5).
I kept receiving the error pictured above, “Error initializing Java Runtime Environment. You may need to reinstall Flash,” whenever I would try to open a new ActionScript 3 project/file, or whenever I would try to run any AS3 code. The error didn’t occur when I was running ActionScript 2.0 projects. Continue Reading…

Tutorial: Installing Bugzilla on Fedora 11 & CentOS 5
July 25th, 2010
So a buddy of mine, Charlie Glisan, was having issues installing Bugzilla on Fedora 11 and CentOS 5 a while back. After hours of strife, and finally getting the software up and running, he decided he would write detailed instructions on how to accomplish the install. He doesn’t have a blog himself and thought that it might be helpful to others out there that are trying to accomplish the same goal to have the instructions available, so he asked if I would like to post the instructions on my blog.

Now I am not a software reviewer by any stretch of the imagination, but I still feel the need every now and then, when I run across something I feel is useful, to sing it’s praises, or at least describe why I feel it is useful. I am definitely singing the praises of VirtualHostX, developed by Tyler Hall. Continue Reading…

Building A Better robots.txt For A WordPress Blog
March 16th, 2010
So I have been designing websites for quite a while now. I realize the importance of a robots.txt file, and the implications it holds for search engine optimization (SEO) and preventing duplicate content. However, for some reason, I have never bothered looking into building a better robots.txt file for my personal blog/WordPress powered portfolio. Weird, right? Honestly, what made me realize I needed to do something better was Google’s Webmaster tools, which I started using since re-launching my website this month. After looking through a few weeks of data in my account, I quickly realized that I would be running into duplicate content issues at the very least. So, I started re-searching best practices for writing robots.txt files for WordPress installations. Continue Reading…

Re-design and re-launch
March 2nd, 2010
So for the last 6 years or so, my website/portfolio/blog has been hosted under the domain mydesigncouldbeatupyourdesign.com. I really liked the domain name, but as you can imagine, I had some problems communicating it to others verbally. So, after some thought and some re-designing, I have re-launched under the domain kevin-deleon.com
The site is a lot more streamlined, and in my opinion quite a bit easier on the eyes. Let me know what you think, and if there is anything that you feel could be changed for the better, shoot me an email, or leave me a comment (who knows…I may just use your idea).
