Change Default Guest Account Picture on Windows.

Hello my fellow tech-savvies. Today I'm gonna write about how to change the default gray guest account picture on Windows 8 (practically the method is the same for other version of Windows).

Have you ever felt bored of seeing this gray dude?

 This entry was actually written a few months back but I kept it as a draft. Now I got some time post it online.

This is an old trick but I never disclose it on my blog. Perhaps you people have known this trick.

Go to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\User Account Pictures

• As you can see, the selected guest image is in bitmap format (.bmp). The picture is correlated to the guest picture shown on startup.

Now is the trick.

• Delete or move out the selected guest.bmp picture off the folder and replace it with a new picture which is saved as guest.bmp

How to save your picture as such?

• You can always go to Paint or any other Photo Editor software and save as .bmp. There is always the option there.
• Please make sure to set the dimension of the replaced photo exactly the same as the old guest photo; which is 448x448px.

And below is how it looks like on my PC.

Voila, you’re good to go.

How To Use WhatsApp Web

On January 25,2015, WhatsApp, via their blog, had announced a new feature of the messenger application in which their clients are now able to remotely use WhatsApp Messenger from the desktop of their PCs.

Before the WhatsApp Web launched, we all have came to know the fact that there's always BlueStacks App Player which can be installed on PC and the app allows user to install the WhatsApp Messenger and use it from the desktop. The drawback is that only a device is permitted to content a particular WhatsApp Messenger account (one device one account principle).

To use WhatsApp Messenger on desktop, all you need to have is the WhatsApp Messenger itself, already installed on your phone and please be sure to have your WhatsApp up-to-date because the next step only can be done with an up-to-date WhatsApp (as it has WhatsApp Web preference)

Read instruction below to get to WhatsApp Web button. Steps may vary accordingly:

How to unauthorized any unwanted apps from accessing your twitter account

Assalamualaikum wbt and greets to all of you, especially you, twitter-maniac and other social media craze.

yeah, I'm blogging again despite of the exam that I currently sitting for. but, if you have anything good to share, to further ado is ain't a good thing after all.
this time, I would like to share on how to unauthorized any apps connected your twitter account, especially the one that will tank your account up.SPAM, I supposed.

well, basically,the newbies especially are more likely to be trapped into any tweets that will bring them more and more followers in just one single click, either you need to pay the followers or the free of charge thingy.
trust me, I'd done that before.

the good thing after you follow all the instructions up, more and more followers will you get until some times, you will realize that you,too, are following them, which I believe not all of us want that to be happened, righto?because following people randomly or anonymously is way too mainstream.until at a point, you keen to look up for ways to redo your actions beforehand.

frankly saying, I've been down that road before. there's a way for that thing, and yes, it's free.
(basically, I love sharing free things or info freely).

so, below are the ways that you need to follow, just a few steps, bear with it for your own good,will you?

Step 1 : move the cursor to the setting, and click on the "setting" tab

or just click the link below.
setting




Step 2 : on the left side tab, there are list of several things that you can change. just click on the "apps" tab

Step 3 : then it will bring you to this. as you can see, these are the apps that linked to your twitter account, including the one that you want to unauthorized to. just simply click on "revoke access" button and it will be like this. say, I want to revoke access on whatever the name 'ereyicesolorza' is, then I simply click on the button.

Now that, I've unauthorized the apps from accessing my twitter account /profile or whatsoever they had done before.Now that you're done, you can just go back to your timeline or whatever you were doing beforehand, continue your tweeting activities.

Tor Browser : Now everyone can open up any blocked website(s)

Assalamualaikum wbt. Howdy!!

(cracking my fingers) and yeah.the title tells it all. again.
(how I realize my cliche lines in each of my post.)

are you a student? or a worker in a company, where the internet usage is restricted,for most of the time even tho you'd call it a day alr.
there's ones said,

for every problem there is a solution

basically, this time, my post is about how to open up any blocked website(s) or URL freely. why I said 'freely' ,because this method cost you nothing but the internet connection and of course your device(s). eg; laptop, tablet, iPad etc.
I believe, if you're a student like me, then you must've encountered this problem or I'd say, an obstruction which failed you from getting into any forbidden website(s). take it from positive side, I believe the school admin or company admin have several reasons for them to block those website, to follow the protocol I'd rather say.

as I quoted before, there's a solution for each problem we've encountered,and hell yeah,it's true.

look, I'll make it simple and am going to provide you guys with the simplest solution ever to that problem.

me too, having the some problem to open up my blog and several websites weeks ago. but then I found this thing, named 'Tor Project (Tor Browser), which very useful for you guys to open up any websites without having to hack or crack down the server /admin/ system and else, and yeah, there's no need of cmd this time.

Review:Windows 8.1,the teaser

Assalamualaikum wbt.

Hello i-Tech ,nerds, computer guy sekalian.

sebenarnya, hari ini aku dengan rasminya telah meng-install Windows 8.1. sebenarnya, lebih kepada upgrade Windows OS dari Windows 8 kepada Win 8.1. so, aku rasa nak cerita sikitlah pasal apa yang berbeza atau best pasal New Version of Win OS ini.

sebenarnya,untuk makluman anda semua, tiada banyak beza pun antara Win 8 dan Win 8.1. tapi sekarang seperti yang kita lihat, Microsoft cuba menyaingi apple.inc dengan menjadikan paparan /user interface yang digunakan oleh user lebih menarik. laptop aku memang asalnya Win 8. alang-alang nak upgrade kepada Win 8.1 percuma, aku cuba try walaupun memakan 3.6+ GB.

berikut aku sertakan beberapa screencap. *sila ignore wallpaper ke apa ke yang patut.
