Guest Guest Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 I know we have the wiki, and theres other sites with loads of links to free software but without ploughing through hundreds of useless links... If everyone who reads this thread posts a link to a free peice of software we should get quite a list! (Obviously we dont need links to google earth and obvious ones like that) WEBSITE DESIGN Css Tab Designer - Simply click the style of navigation tabs you want for your website, it makes the code for you and you copy and paste it into your site. Really good to get the kids on the way to making a website. About 2 dozen differant templates so enough so that not everyone has the same http://www.highdots.com/css-tab-designer/

Guest Guest Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 ASIO 4 All - http://www.asio4all.com/ Got cubase/cubasic, reason, Froutly loops, but no decent soundcard to use with them. Just use this driver and aslong as your motherboards soundcard is alright you will get decent latencies.

projector1 Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 tux paint (ms paint type) great piec of software for primary schools. the cd in this link is crammed with free software http://www.ttcsweb.org/osswin-cd/
ajbritton Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 I know we have the wiki, and theres other sites with loads of links to free software but without ploughing through hundreds of useless links... ... and now we have another list to look through. At least the page on the wiki is categorized and can be updated by anyone (when the wiki is working!). I don't want to sound ungrateful, but this does not seem like a very good way of maintaining a list.
elsiegee40 Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 I don't want to sound ungrateful, but this does not seem like a very good way of maintaining a list. It may not be the best way; but until the Wiki's been fixed, it's dead handy! The contents of this thread can always be added to the Wiki when it reopens and this thread closed.
Guest Guest Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 ^ That was the idea. Plus the fact that *no-one ever* adds to the wiki so i thought this might get peoples attention as they are browsing the forum, and it would seem that im right. Ungrateful sod

GrumbleDook Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Ok, Ok ... I am looking at a temporary wiki at the moment ... Sheesh, turn your back for a day or two and the masses revolt (then again ... some of you have been revolting for some time!) Please be patient ... please continue to contribute to this thread and thank you to j17sparky for volunteering to add it all into the wiki when it is up and running again.

FN-GM Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 If i get time i will publish these on the new Wiki tonight
vikpaw Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 http://www.hoverdesk.net/freeware.htm The link has a number of apps on it of which i have not tried apart from the one called HoverSnap at the bottom of the page. It doesn't need installing, can be run from anywhere. just 3 files i think. i put it in my startup folder then it hides in the sys tray. you can make screen dumps to a specified folder with specified naming, and you also have the option to draw a box around a specific part of the screen to capture. i use it all the time on google maps as the default print option skews the maps and resizes whenever i try to print.
CyberNerd Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Rather than post an specific software, this link has alternatives to commercial software: http://www.osalt.com/
