I get asked so often how I made my calendar that you see on the sidebar of my site that I finally decided to write up this little tutorial to direct people to. Firstly it is hand-coded purely in HTML, it isn't a fancy PHP script as a lot of people assume. It is a basic table with images and title tags, simple.

Nick has now created me this wonderful little script that means you can generate the base calandar code, without having to hand-code it yourself!

Now pick the event you want to add and find a smilie to represent it (I recommend Mazeguy), then simply replace the number with the image code. For example to add my birthday to March

find:
/* Code block */
20

Replace with:

/* Code block */
<img src="http://www.thesmilies.com/smilies/holiday/birthday.gif"
TITLE="March 20th - Starlet of Swaymyway.com's birthday" >

Tada!
