Compose Your Own Music with a Music Composing Software

September 2nd, 2010 by Kayce

Hubby and I are both members of our church music ministry and we do have a church band where my hubby is the guitarist while I am the vocalist. We are both music lovers and aside from playing our favorite Christian songs, we are also inspired in making our own composition of music. 
We actually have some several originally written compositions and all we need is a music composing software that would help us in recording our tracks from our original scores and be able to edit and capture any changes in it. 

Composing music is not only a privilege for  great music masters but anyone of us can compose our own music, songs and arrangements. With the help of a music composing software, it has tools that will help us discover and practice  our own composition of songs.

Why We Use Deep Freeze instead of Anti-Virus

August 21st, 2010 by Kayce

We used an anti virus software before like AVG and ESET NOD32 for our i-cafe pc’s but we are still having some problems on the viruses that keeps on ruining our pc’s. Even if we always update the anti virus but still viruses gets in and my hubby feels so sick and tired on it where he keeps on reformatting and installing the programs all over again.

A friend told us and recommend that we try to use Deep Freeze because it protects against all kind of malwares, unauthorized installations, viruses, spyware, and most of all, the trojan horse virus. This is just the right application we need because some of our customers are installing software’s and programs while others just simply plug their usb’s without our knowledge. There was one time when a customer wants to print out her documents from her usb and even if I already scanned her usb,  when I opened the file, the virus is still there and the worst thing it immediately spread out on our servers pc. All our saved files were infected and I can’t open all the programs.
That’s why we decided to use Deep Freeze instead of using anti virus. So far we are satisfied with its performance. When our system becomes unstable for any reason, like it has a virus or perhaps a driver misconfiguration, we just simply reboot the pc and within seconds, Deep Freeze will restore the system to the state it was in when last frozen. So it works like magic where everything that had been done since then becomes undone and you are back up and running in no time. Have about you my friends? Have you tried using Deep Freeze?

January 23rd, 2010 by Kayce

I was looking back at my daughter’s photo when she was almost 1 year old and I was just amazed how she did grew fast and even at her young age, she already know how to pose in the camera and make a good shot. Well, I know she got this kind of “camera photo addict ” talent and skills from her mom of course! LOL… and also her grandmom. The photo above was her famous naughty smile creating a  cutie pie look on her photo.

This one is her “Kiss Me Quick” close up shot. She just love the camera and make self captured photos of her own. And take note: she already know how to click the shutter of our digicam as well as my mobile phone and her papa’s phone too. She just can’t resist taking a pose and looking at the preview shots. 


This photo was edited by her beloved Fashionista Grandmom. She used a MagMyPic photo editor. I like this Magazine cover look of my daughter. Thanks Mom for editing this one. 

I took this pic when she was bathing on her little swimming pool on her cutie 2 piece suit. Oh! I just miss this swimming pool and her 2 piece cause she can’t use it anymore… It’s small on her now! 


This is her newest Model look shot. Photo courtesy of her Aunt Mhai which is also a certified camera addict. Hahaha! Well I still have lots of lovely photos of my daughter here.. I will just post some more soon..  Cheers!

Photoscape: My All Time Favorite Photo Editing Software!

December 4th, 2009 by Kayce

I was looking at my younger sister Xyza’s photos posted in Netlog before and I was so amazed how she edited all her pictures. I ask whats the name of the photo editing software and she said its Photoscape. She sent me the installer online cause it has only a small file size and its easy to install too.
Here are some of the great features of Photoscape that I love!

The Editor

The editor is where most of the functions are. Here you can apply a multitude of adjustments and effects to your photos. There is everything from one click auto-levels and contrast to advanced color curves, complete with the ability to load and save presets. There are many color and tone adjustments and a number of filter effects from the practical (noise reduction) to fun (cartoon). You can also spruce up your photos with a variety of fun and funky frames.

Within the editor, there is an object tab where you can add text, shapes, and speech balloons on top of the photo you are working with. There is a wide variety of clip art objects that can be stamped onto your working file, andyou can also add any other photo or an image from the clipboard. There is a rich text tool for adding formatted text as well as a symbol tool which lets you browse all the symbol fonts on your computer and drop them onto your image. Once these objects are in your document, they can be resized, moved, and rotated.

The editor also offers a flexible crop tool with a circular crop option. And there are a few region editing tools–red eye remover, mole remover, and mosaic. The red eye and mole tools could be improved, but for quick touch-ups they do an okay job.

You also get undo and undo all buttons for reverting any changes you don’t like. And when you save your edits, you have the option to back up the original photo before overwriting, save under a new file name, or save your file in a designated output folder.

Batch Processing

In the Batch Editor you can apply almost all the functions available in the editor to multiple files at once. That includes frames, objects, text, color and tone adjustments, sharpening, resizing, and many of the effects. You can review the results before exporting one or all of the photos with your changes. You can also save your batch editor settings as a configuration file to re-use later.

Page Layouts

The page module is a multi-photo layout tool with over 100 choices of grid layouts to chose from. Simply dr ag and drop your photos into the boxes to create a quick collage. Individual photos can be moved and scaled to fit the grid boxes, and you can adjust the size of the layout, add margins, round the corners, and apply frames or filter effects to all photos in the layout. Once your layout is complete, it can be saved as a new file or p assed to the editor.

As you can see from my edited photos using this software, I am very impressed overall on what has been packed into this photo editor without sacrificing ease of use.
