Bonus Collector for Cafe World, Treasure Isle, Frontier Ville, Farm Ville and Mafia Wars (Part III)

Tutorial on how to use FGS

First of all, make sure that you have logged-in to your Facebook account. If you haven't, the FGS icon will have an X right next to it. It looks something like this.

Make sure you have logged-in to your Facebook account.

If you haven't logged-in, there's no harm to it. Just click on the logo and it will direct you to the Facebook log-in page. This is because FGS will need to access all your posts and also your friends post for any bonuses.

REMINDER:  If you don't feel secured about logging-in via FGS link, make sure that you are already logged-in to your Facebook account prior to opening FGS.

Second, click on the FGS button. It is on the upper right hand corner of your Google Chrome.

Click here.

FGS will open in a new tab as shown below.

Click on each individual game to enable bonus collection from your Facebook as so.

Then tick on the box besides "Game enabled". Do the same for the rest of the game that you play. Then click refresh and wait for it to collect bonuses. This is how FGS will look like after collecting bonuses and requests on walls.

For Frontier Ville, I have one pending request from a friend who needs a measuring tape.

How to receive bonuses or send request

Bonuses/requests are the ones collected from your friends wall. Click on the "Receive all bonuses" button to receive bonuses shown and/or send things requested by friends. A tick will be shown when the request is fulfilled.

Request sent.

How to receive pending gifts

To receive gifts, click on the "Show pending gifts" button in any game you choose just like shown below.

I have one gifts given to me from a kind neighbour.

Click on the receive all gifts to accept gifts.

The gift has been collected.

How to send gifts (only for Frontier Ville and Farm Ville)

You can also send gifts to your neighbours in Frontier Ville and Farm Ville. Sending gifts to other games have not been added yet. So just hope that flies, the developer of FGS will make that option available for all games. Here is how to send gifts:

a) Sending gifts individually

Click on the "Send free gifts" button, then choose the gift that you want to send.

In the neighbours list choose one/few neighbours that you want to send gifts to.

I have selected one recepient.

Click "Send free gifts" button.

Wait for three to five seconds (depending on how many gifts you're sending). When its done, you can see that the persons name on the Neighbours list is gone (as you can only gift once per day).

To see gifts that you have already sent, click the "Show free gifts history" button

Gift sent.

How to send gifts to favourite friends

If you have a list of neighbours of more than 30 friends, you can select a few friends (as there is a quota on how much gifts you can send to per day) to be included in your favourites list. This option enables you to send gifts to them without having to choose everyday. Their names will appear automatically in the favourites list thus sending gifts to them is a breeze. I really love this option as I would love to give gifts to friends who have helped me in sending gifts, bonuses or helped me with my request. Here is how:

Click on the star next to your neighbours name in the Neighbours list and their names will appear in the Favourites send to list.

Friends name included in the favourites send to list.

Click on the "Select favourites" button first before you click on the "Send free gifts". Wait for a few seconds before the list disappear (to show that you've sent them).

There you go. That's just the basic tutorial on how to use FGS. If you need to know more or have any questions regarding this, please don't hesitate to leave me comment(s) and I will try my best to answer them or better, post another tutorial. Happy FGS-ing guys! :)

p/s: I'm not the developer for FGS so if there's any problem with FGS I'm afraid I can't help but I know very well that flies is working hard trying to fix it and improving it. Thus any donations for flies in improving FGS is very much encouraged and welcome :D To donate, click on the donate button on the upper-left hand corner of FGS tab.

Bonus Collector for Cafe World, Treasure Isle, Frontier Ville, Farm Ville and Mafia Wars (Part II)

In my previous post here I talked about the bonus collector. So here goes the tutorial for installing it.





First of all you need a Google Chrome. If you don't have one, here's the link to download Google Chrome and download as shown below.

Click Download Google Chrome.

IMPORTANT: Install it and wait for it to open. The second step requires you to open the chrome extension in Chrome, otherwise it won't work.





Second, go to the Google Chrome extension called Facebook Games Simplifier here and install the extension as shown below.

Click install.

A pop-up will prompt you to install the FGS as shown below:

Choose to install.

After successfully installing FGS, a notification will pop-up on the upper right of your Chrome as shown here.

As shown, I have seven pending bonuses/requests.

That's all for this post. Catch me in the next post on how to use the FGS.

Bonus Collector for Cafe World, Treasure Isle, Frontier Ville, Farm Ville and Mafia Wars (Part I)

I just love to play with Zynga's game like Cafe World, FrontierVille and Treasure Isle. But I always end up with  so little time to collect bonuses and send gifts to friends each day since I spend the whole time playing three games. At first I thought the Bonus Checker was the solution to my problems as it collects bonuses published on my friends wall but it turns out to be time consuming as I have to I've got accept the gifts one-by-one manually.





However, recently I stumbled upon one of (I say) the best application ever for collecting bonuses AUTOMATICALLY plus I get to send gifts too! I can also send any (I call them) construction tools to my friends for frontierville and not just limited to two construction tools such as nails and bricks.






As I have been promoting all this while in my blog, the application is FREE peeps :) However, donations for the developer are most welcome. Besides that, the application also support Mafia Wars and Farm Ville besides Cafe World, FrontierVille and Treasure Isle. The application deserves two thumbs up from me.

What application is it, you ask?? No, it's not Zynga's toolbar.






You just have to wait and stick to my next post to find out ;)




*sorry guys, can't blog about the application yet coz I have problems with the computer. Can't print screen to post pictures for tutorials on how to install and use the application. Will post up the next entry within this week.

Tying Neat Bows on Pressies

Thought I might share you this entry on gift-wrapping. I just love to give pressies to my buddies and loved ones. Some are small, some expensive. Nevertheless, I really do like to pay much attention on the presentation of the pressies. I'll make sure that they come in boxes and not just wrapped in any wrapping paper and the most particular thing is the bow that sits on top.

I like my bows to be big and fluffy just like the one on top. See, isn't it just stunning? Instead I find myself splurging money on useless things just coz I can't manage to make an exclusive bow. Yeah, it irritates me alot coz the price of the ribbon itself is expensive and the bow won't make it through long journeys on buses.





So I best thought that I should google up on how to make one myself. Pretty hard stuff finding it coz what is on the net are just basic bows that you tie on shoe laces.

The search took me to How to Tie a Tiffany Bow tutorial. Pretty~ but not what I was searching for.





Next was the How to Perfectly Wrap a Present for dummies. This link might help you guys who can't get the hang of wrapping the present. It's got lots of step-by-step instruction but only aided by one picture on each page so I don't know if it helps. Oh, but it does give you steps on how to wrap odd shaped presseies.





Lo-and-behold...


I eventually found the step by step instruction on how to tie the beautiful bow. It's in pdf format so all you need to do is just to download the link here on Gorgeous Gift Presentation. Like usual it links to the 4shared website. And yeah, it's easy to follow and it has other forms of bows and not just the ones I showed. This tutorial was taken from the Container~Stores website.





Happy gift-wrapping guys! :)

Al-Qur'an on the go (mobile software)

Fixing Executable File / Program

Have you ever had times when you accidently changed the property of the file and set it to open to another program? Well, I've had my fair share and it is just devastating. It was all because of a virus that attacked all my word documents.





The .doc files were unable to open as the virus changed it into an executable file instead of a document. So I stupidly enough thought it was a clever thing to change the files extension from .exe to .doc. but it was the biggest mistake that I did.







I end up messing the files all together. All the .exe programs started to open in Office Word which was pretty awful as nothing literally opened except for Word of course. As for the file that got devoured, well, I never managed to open it either.







 Things got panicky but fortunately I had my browser opened all that while. I started to google-up ways to fix it and after quite somewhile I stumbled upon this website that typically explains how to repair it. I forgot the URL. I was suspicious at first (Well, who isn't? I could've downloaded more virus and trojans instead) but gave it a try, otherwise I wuldn't be able to submit my report despite having to redo it all over again *sigh*.







And voila! To my astonishment, after I downloaded the file and ran it, it works. I mean a click of a button is all I had to do. There was a small popup prompting whether we want to open a website afterwards but that was really it. The size of the file is only 11Kb and click here for the link. Like always, it is linked to my 4shared account. If you're not sure how to download it, look up in MiniLyrics, Karaoke Lyrics for instructions.






All you need to do is download it, then run it and that is all. Good luck in fixing the problem ;)

Mozilla Firefox Add-Ons

For todays post, I will show you a few of my favourite add-ons that I have been using on Mozilla Firefox and it has truly served me well in terms of its functions as well as nice UI to it. To top it all off, it is simple to add on and to use.

 

 My Firefox with vista-aero themes and other add-ons.

I like this Vista-Aero theme because it has the same function as Internet Explorer would have.

Like these buttons on the top-right hand corner of my Firefox.

For the Vista-Aero themes that I used on Firefox, just click here and click on the "Add-on to Firefox" button.






As for all the other add-ons (extensions) that I used on Firefox are:

- Download Statusbar
- Search Preview
- Tab Scope
- Smart Bookmarks Bar


I have linked each of the add-ons to its respective add-on links. So just click on the above add-ons except for the Smart Bookmarks Bar.

Download Statusbar

It lets you view and manage downloads from a tidy statusbar; without the download window getting in the way of your web browsing. So there is less clutter of having multiple windows opened. I truly truly truly like this extension as it is neat and tidy, stating the amount of speed it downloads per second and on the bottom is the estimated time left for it to complete.

Search Preview

With Search Preview, all of the results will be displayed with an image (thumbnail) of the website to the left of the search results. So to those who forgot about a website they recently visited then have no fear as. The coolest part is there's also a hits bar next to the address indicating of how many users have clicked on to that page a.k.a popularity ranks of that website according to Google, Yahoo and Bing search results pages.

Tab Scope

 

Tab Scope lets you preview and navigate tab contents through popup. As seen in the picture above, I placed my cursor on top of the tab that I am not on it to preview the webpage to know whether it has already finished loading without having to click on it. Besides that, I also use the buttons that's on the tab scope to refresh, go forward or back one page or just to close it without the need to even look at the tab.

Smart Bookmarks Bar

 

 

The smart bookmarks bar (SBB) is my all time fav. I like it ever sooooo much that I just can't seem to live without it. Whenever I use someone elses laptop, my hands are so gatal that I want to download the SBB on theirs. Its so handy as all the bookmarks are visible and whats great about it is that it has the icon of the webpage on it as well making it easier for us to remember the website besides the name and the URL of the website on mouse over. Actually this add-on came with the Vista-Aero theme (that explains the no link above). All you need to do is just click on the star with a green thingy on top of it to add your prefered website to your list of SBB's.

That's it for today. I hope that with the help of my tips and advice will make your surfing experience more pleasureable and easier. Any queries please do not hesitate to ask me. Happy surfing ;)

Our Bday Party

Last Tuesday, me and my room mate, Fatin, celebrated our birthday with all our friends. The 9th was actually my Bday but since we were quite free that day and the fact that there never was going to be a class replacement at the end of Wednesday, we made plans to do it on the 9th.

We had our dinner early at 5pm at Pizza Hut SACC Mall. The cake was bought courtesy of Hussaini. It was a black forest but we had another fruit cake in mind. Well, atleast the strawberries looked luscious enough to eat. Yum yum.. :)







I wanna take this chance to wish my dearest sister, Azzah (9 Feb) and my roommate-cum-"sister", Fatin (10 Feb) a belated Happy Birthday. May all your wishes come true and that you'll become a true muslimah...

xoxo

p/s: My childhood memories back in England felt just like it happened yesterday. But that was 13 years ago. *sigh*

MiniLyrics, Karaoke Lyrics

Have you ever wanted to read the lyrics to a song while you're listening to it?
Perhaps you wanted to sing-a-long to a song you really like.
Or you just wanted to karaoke in your room without going to any karaoke box.
And you're just too busy or even too lazy to google up the lyric to the song that you're listening to.








Well search no more fellas, I have found the best possible solution there is!! Better than any lyrics viewer I've ever seen.





The best thing is that it's absolutely FREE!!!


No sign-ups, no adware, no spyware and nothing of that sort.





I found this software online. It's called MiniLyrics. All you need to do is just download it, install it, and it pops up whenever you listen to music. It practically opens up to any of the players that you have and that you have chosen for it to work with.









Here are all the players that MiniLyrics supports:








Winamp
Windows Media Player
Apple iTunes
RealPlayer
Yahoo! Music Engine
VLC Media Player
The KMPlayer
Foobar2000
Zune software
MediaMonkey
Spotify
Quintessential Player
Songbird
J. River Media Jukebox
J. River Media Center
JetAudio
BSPlayer
AlbumPlayer
Helium Music Manager
AIMP2
Silverjuke
XMPlay





Here are a few previews...






The lyrics (in yellow) scrolls on top as the song plays.






This is the boundary for MiniLyrics where you can widen it according to your preference.






And this is the MiniLyrics on "click-thru" mode. The boundaries will be invisible and you will be able to do your work while the MiniLyrics scrolls on top of all your desktop without accidently clicking on the MiniLyrics.







It also comes in different striking colours besides orange and blue such as lime green and purple, pink and green and also red and khaki. I'll show you how to change the settings in my future posts.




The software will search for the lyrics online in its archive by itself (unless it can't match the title or artist to the song) each time it plays a song with no lyrics to it. (No, I'm not being paid by anyone to do this.)






So all you need to do is just click here for the MiniLyrics download and it will link you to my 4shared account.



Next, click on the blue button which says "Download Now" and wait for it to load (around 6 seconds) until you can see this:



..and just click on "Click here to download this file"..




Take my word, its the best software in terms of innovation and also freeware and you will never go wrong. Don't hesitate to ask me anything regarding MiniLyrics.

xoxo
