Even before it was actually released (firmware 2.0) the Dev Team created the jailbreak firmware that could already unlock it.

The iPhone Dev Team has once again proven their totally gnarly talents by freeing up the latest firmware before it?s even the latest firmware. Apple, here?s our suggestion ? just let people do what they want with your devices, since they?re clearly going to do it anyway. That way, instead of making enemies, you?re making lifelong buddies. Reasonable, right? Steve, give us a call, we?re more than happy to riff on some ideas for playing nice with the end-user.

At some point in time, especially if you download a lot of movies or applications, you will come across the types of files I have mentioned above. The annoying thing is, you will need to have a program installed to be able to access the goodies beneath the extensions and as usual the only programs which people recommend cost money

But dont worry, I have put together a small tutorial on how to mount images unto a virtual drive for absolutely free!

Before we begin you will need to download Virtual Clone Drive which can be found by clicking HERE.

Once you have downloaded the program please go ahead and run the .exe to install the program. The program should install on any windows version as officially it says that you can only install on Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows 2000 and Windows XP but I now have it running on Windows Vista Home Premium flawlessly.

Once you have installed you can setup 8 virtual drivers (max) but I find that 1 is more than enough. To actually mount an image you will need to select the file in question (right click) and select mount image. If you choose to associate the supported image file formats and extensions with Virtual CloneDrive, you can then simply double-click on an image file to mount as a drive.

In my case (windows vista) I had to right click and select open with and choose “Mount Files With Virtual CloneDrive” - See picture below:

I hope this short guide helps you to be able to mount images more easier, no need to have shitty deamon tools with its spyware and ads, Virtual CloneDrive is your best bet.

The problem with many symbian applications is that you need the program signed with your handsets IMEI for it to work.

Generating the certificate to make it all work is easy if you put your mind to it but for some reason the know how and skill still eludes a lot of people. With that in mind, we have now come together (the genius’s behind SweetHacks) for a cheap solution to all your worries!

Marc of http://www.thelogocreator.com has created a few fantastic logo design programs that enables us to brand our websites (or products) with logos that are professional from a huge inventory varying from corporate branding to simple loony cartoons (kinda like John Cows theme).

“Create incredible logo, page headers, splash page images, movie titles and more that look like a Photoshop guru spent hours laboring over! It’s like having your own logo design studio… without the studio!

With The Logo Creator by Laughingbird Software - you’ll get a portfolio full of logos that you can modify and personalize yourself, in your own time… for far less than what a designer will charge.”

I will be honest, when I saw this program at first I thought it was a cheap rip off microsoft’s paint program but beneath that exterior “feel” is a very different program that will surprise you and most professional designers in terms of the range of features available to you all.

I have had the benefit of having the “Mega Pak Collection” sent to me to review. What interested me in this program is the simplicity of it all, what used to take me hours to perfect in adobe photoshop (such as the sweethacks logo) would take me about 10 minutes. This is after learning how to use the program of course.

Logos can be exported in 12 formats, including .JPG and, as shown above, transparent .GIFs. For those with a need to have those graphics in print, such as for business cards or stationary, the program allows exports to a higher resolution (300 DPI).

Graphics can also be saved in the program’s native .TLC format for later modification.

TLC comes with 40 installed fonts, but the program will also use the fonts on your system or ones downloaded from the Internet.

To make a logo, the user starts the program and is greeted by a nice looking interface showing a page with thumbnails of potential templates of the 25 logos that come with that module. Users then move forward until they find one they like, click on it and it opens into the main work screen.

The above creative took me a matter of minutes to create with the template already being there (in entertainment mix) all I had to do was change the letters and one effect and away I was to a new fantastic logo!

The Logo Creator includes many templates for developing logos or modifying existing ones which makes it easy to you the user to design your art in a matter of minutes. Perhaps this program can be your gateway to an income by creating designs for new clients.

The installation was fairly quick after the download which enabled me to start working immediately and thankfully it was spyware free which meant no annoying viruses.

As we speak, Abdalla is busy dealing with Marc (The logo Design creator) for a free copy of the software to one of our many readers in the next upcoming weekly contest.
