WordPress users: I just started using the Wordfence security plugin, which acts both as a bit of a firewall and antivirus for your WP installation...and it's free. I had no idea so many hackers from places like Romania and Ukraine have been trying to hack in to my site so often! https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordfence/

Wordfence Security is a free enterprise class security plugin that includes a firewall, virus scanning, real-time traffic with geolocation and more.

Any iCloud Photo Stream gurus out there? How can I download all of the photos in My Photo Stream to a Windows PC? I recently installed the iCloud Control Panel and am seeing NEW photos synced to my PC but even after having it installed for almost a month now I'm not getting any of the old photos I took before I installed the Control Panel, only the new ones (83 photos so far). My iPod Touch reports there are 1,000 photos in the stream...is there some way to download all of them?

Can anyone recommend a free iPhone app that can make a collage but where the final image isn't constrained to a square? I have Pic Stitch but it and just about every other collage app I can find only outputs a square image (thus severely cropping the original images) and I want something that just stitches two image together as one big rectangle. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pic-stitch/id454768104?mt=8

Get Pic Stitch on the App Store. See screenshots and ratings, and read customer reviews.

Just read a post where someone referenced TGIF and for a second I thought, "Oh no, not another new image format?!"

Here are some fun selections from a recent "Day in the life of" photo session with Reece, who spent a sunny and hot summer afternoon playing in the sprinkler and eating ice cream!

Looks like I won't be going back to Instagram any time soon. "[Their] agreement gives Instagram perpetual use of photos and video as well as the nearly unlimited right to license the images to any and all third parties. And, after granting this broad license to Instagram, photographers also relinquish the right to terminate the agreement. Once uploaded, they cannot remove their work and their identity from Instagram. Additionally, in the event of litigation regarding the photo or video, it is the account holder who is responsible for attorney and other fees, not Instagram." via ASMP: American Society of Media Photographers – National Page
