Another Fireworks tweak

One of the things that drives me crazy about Fireworks CS3 is the recent font list. It's a terrible "feature" that hinders my workflow. I just found a way to disable it.

I was a bit confused on how to get this working so here are the steps.
  1. Download that package and unzip it.
  2. Put [Recent Font List - 0 (Off).jsf] into [C:\Documents and Settings\userName\Application Data\Adobe\Fireworks CS3\Commands]
  3. Now in Fireworks select: Commands > Recent Font List - 0 (Off).jsf
  4. Restart Fireworks
The recent font list is gone! Rejoice.

Speaking at SIEGE 2008

I will be speaking on some panels at SIEGE 2008. I will be speaking about game design/development and Flash game development. This is the only game conference in the Southeast (that I know of) so if you are in the area and are involved/interested in game development you should check it out.

I have really been looking forward to SIEGE this year. Last year I was recovering from back surgery at the time of the convention so it was very difficult to be there. This year I will be able to spend more time socializing and meeting people.
