Billings 3 for Mac OS X—Professional Invoicing *Updated
What is Billings 3*?
Billings 3 is an excellent billing and invoicing tool, which is solely for Mac OS X 10.4 and higher. The following article is my own review of the software after using it.
Once installed, which is an easy enough task, my first step was to see if there were any software updates before I used it. Intuitively, I visited the Billings Menu—and clicked on Check for Updates—and within a couple of minutes, the software was updated.
Before proceeding, I would strongly advise that you go to the Help Menu, then read through the Billings 3 Guide. At first, I didn’t do this and instead just got myself confused when trying to work it out myself—especially regarding the use of Timers (which I will come to later on).

Troubleshooting your External CSS Style Sheet: Changing Pixels to ‘em’ (ems)
Web Design Quotes available on this site.
Recently, I read an article about em measurements instead of pixels for the type in CSS StyleSheets. So, thinking it would be simple enough, I set about changing all the type settings in my Golive CS StyleSheet. I used an easy conversion I read about – whereby you set the body of the text to 62.5%, then, say 10px equates to 1em..and 16px becomes 1.6em and so on. Well, as stated, this was quite easy taking me about 10 minutes to complete.
