Now this is a pretty cool collector’s item for fans of Iron Man. This is a replica of the first Iron Man helmet made by Tony Stark.
This replica is forged in steel just like the original and is made with great attention to detail using the actual prop and consulting with Stan Winston Studios. The helmet is hinged at the top and lined with suede. This replica is an extremely limited edition of 500 pieces and comes with a hand-numbered certificate of authenticity as well as a display.
Not sure what to get your Mom, your Wife, your Sister? Does she have a passion for scrapbooking and documenting family memories? The biggest dilemma with scrapbooking is that often only a small handful of people get to see your hard work. Why not give her the opportunity to make an online scrapbook.
First you will need a web host and domain. I recommend ICDSoft. They are a very reliable, full-featured hosting company who has many hosting plans to choose from. You will also need a domain name to go with that hosting, and ICDSoft can provide that for an extra $5. ICDSoft Web Hosting with plans starting at $6/month
Once you have a web host, you will need an easy website creation tool such as iWeb (part of iLife, for Mac only). Apple has provided quite a few tutorials to get you started with iWeb, so don’t hesitate to check them out. Since you won’t be putting your site on a .Mac account, you will need to choose “Publish to a Folder…” from the File menu.
Once you have published your webpage to a folder, you will need an FTP client to upload your files to your new web host. There are many good FTP clients out there. Personally I use Cyberduck. Cyberduck is one of the few free, but fully-featured FTP clients available, and is definitely worth any donation that you can give. Another great FTP client is Transmit.
Uploading your page to your host will vary ever so slightly depending on the FTP client you choose. The basic method is, enter your domain name, username, and password in your FTP client, then connect/login to your site. Find the index file for the page you just published to a folder. Grab the index file and all the other files and folders in the same folder, and copy them to the www folder on your web host. Once that upload is complete, you will have published your newly created web page to your very own website.
All you Star Wars fans should check out the new, limited edition Star Wars TIE Fighter watch by Fossil (LL1047). This watch has a soft leather cuff, and detail on the dial includes a TIE Fighter and squadron logo, with camouflage and red accents.
Fossil introduced two new limited edition watches - a men’s Superman collectible watch (LL1037) with a limited run of only 1,000 pieces and a Batman Dark Knight collectible watch (LL1040) with a limited run of only 2,000 pieces. I thought the last superman watch was nice, but this new one looks as good or better. If you are interested in either of these, don’t wait too long to pick one up. The last Superman collectible watch sold out very quickly.
Hey, Sweetheart. If you are reading this, I need some gift ideas. Remember last year I engraved a pink iPod nano. Do you need a new iPod a year later? Probably not, but I never can tell. Maybe some books about art? Maybe some clothes? Or some jewelry?
If you are not my wife but are still reading this, I’m open to ideas from you as well. She is very modern, loves art, loves technology, loves anything to do with elephants.
