My New WordPress Theme

Yes, I am replacing the theme called Clear, which I have used for a long time, with Diovo, which was also designed by NiyazPK. Although the Clear theme looks nice in its simplicity, having the menus in the footer (the very bottom section of the page) made it a little difficult to use. My new theme, Diovo, looks like it will be much more convenient because it keeps these menus on the right-hand side. Rather than editing Diovo, much of which is in English, to translate it into Turkish as I did with the Clear theme, I plan to make some corrections over time only where I find it necessary. Another new feature of the Diovo theme is that it makes things easier for the user by building in link features such as email subscription, RSS and Twitter in the right-hand menu. I hope this new theme will be longer-lived and more useful than the previous one.

Map of the KTÜ Kanuni Campus

I think this lovely, humorous map of our university, prepared years ago by cartoonist Tamer Küçük and Muammer Kotbaş with the contributions of the KTÜ Department of Geodesy and Photogrammetry, will be useful for friends who have just been admitted to our university. Although our university has new buildings that have been built in recent years and are still under construction, this map shows our university’s campus in broad outline.

Field Practice Course: Base Map Production Assignment

halihazir_harita As I mentioned in my earlier post published under the title Urban Area Regulation: Article 18 Application of Zoning Law No. 3194 Assignment, I have compiled as a PDF, albeit a little late, the files of the base map production assignment we did in the 2008-2009 spring semester. The document contains the base map covering the Department of Chemistry on the KTÜ Kanuni Campus, prepared as part of the Field Practice Course in the spring semester of the 2nd year of KTÜ Surveying Engineering, together with the other information that a base map file should contain. I think this document will make things much easier, especially for friends who will take this course in the 2nd year, when they prepare their assignments.

How to Open MDI (Microsoft Document Imaging) Files

Files with the .MDI extension are especially important for users who don’t have a printer. They make it possible to preview documents prepared in any program digitally, without printing them. However, it is often not possible to take advantage of this service that Microsoft Office provides. This problem occurs when you open an .mdi file because Microsoft Office Document Imaging, which is included in the 2007 Microsoft Office programs, is an optional component that has not been installed. To resolve this problem, install Microsoft Office Document Imaging. To do this, follow these steps:
