I didn’t count how many sacks of coal there were, and I wouldn’t even dare to guess, but the pictures say a lot too 🙂 At first it was just my dad, me and my brother, and later my sister and my mom joined us as well. And that’s still not all of it, because …

If your Windows is set to the USA style of date display, time, currency and numbers, the methods below will return the following: ToLongDateString(): Friday, July 27, 2012 ToLongTimeString(): 9:26:49 AM ToShortDateString(): 7/27/2012 ToShortTimeString(): 9:26 AM ToString(): 7/27/2012 9:26:49 AM If it is set to Czech / Czech Republic, you get this instead (the time …

Over the course of my roughly 6 projects that used an SQLite DB, I wrote a number of classes that helped me and, in a sense, even automated my work with the database. So once I had learned the simple SQLite, I moved on to the more complex SQL Server. Another reason is that at …

For a long time I used a third-party app called ImageResizer, but it could only shrink JPEG files. And since I was getting tired of converting images to JPG and then possibly back again, I made myself a small app of my own that converts file types, primarily JPG, but it can also handle any …

The first screenshots straight from my Samsung Galaxy Y: The app scrolls when I hide the keyboard. It automatically opens the right keyboard for quickly entering numbers and the decimal point.
