I spent the last couple of months rewriting
WittyProfiles.com from scratch. Witty Profiles is a site I started in 2003 that now contains a library of nearly 250,000 short text messages for people to copy and paste into their profiles on social networks. Over the years I've collected a lot of user feedback and decided now was the time to implement the most requested features. Included in this release: rich text editing of quotes and profiles, elimination of quote moderation, quote voting, enhanced user profiles, and improved search.

Mac OS X has a screen saver that takes an RSS feed of images as a data source. This Flickr RSS Feed Generator uses the Flickr API to retrieve images determined by parameters you specify and returns an RSS feed, whose URL you can paste into the screensaver options screen in OS X.

The DeGraeve.com
Favicon Editor has been redesigned for better usability. You can now drag your cursor around to paint your favicon instead of designing it by clicking one pixel at a time. You can now create favicons from uploaded images of any size and type. The favicon editor has more colors to choose from and now keeps track of what colors you've used.
Try it out!

Well, sort of. I noticed a huge surge in requests recently for my
color palette generator web service and did some investigating which eventually led to Justin Ormont's
Facebook Auto-Colorizer which automatically colorizes Facebook profiles based on the user's photo. Pretty cool usage.

My color palette generator has made its way around the internet and based on feedback, I've developed a web service that returns an XML document containing a color palette given the URL of an image. This means you can now automate your color palette generation. Get XML responses to requests sent in the form of: http://www.degraeve.org/cgi-bin/color-palette.cgi?url=urltoimg
