Setting up DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) for your Sendy installation is a critical step to ensuring your Newsletters get to your audience.

DIY Electronic Newsletters with Sendy
DIY Electronic Newsletters with Sendy
Earlier this summer, my fine friends at Chiptunes = WIN came to me with a problem they were having. They wanted to be able to send out newsletters to their subscribers, but their particular circumstances made the big names cost prohibitive for them.
They had too many subscribers for the free plans available. They also weren’t planning to send e-mails to their subscribers often enough to justify…

Quenching the Forge: Homemade Fruit Juice Wine
Quenching the Forge: Homemade Fruit Juice Wine
‘Tis the season ChipWIN Nation. The season of warm evenings, flowers in full bloom, and evenings spent in lawn chairs watching beautiful sunsets with a cold drink in your hand.
That cold drink is all the more refreshing if a reasonable amount of your own effort has gone into constructing it, but serious home brewing takes serious effort. If you’ve got the spare cash for starter equipment, and…

Terrible gif? Or the best gif. You be the judge.
So me jjokerdude and another friend made a joke about chipmusic being a “square jerk” or “pixel jerk” back at magfest 2014. This was brought up again recently so I made a terrible gif illustrating it.
This was done out of love for you chip

Stoking the Forge: 'FOLIAGE EP' by scatterpattern
Stoking the Forge: ‘FOLIAGE EP’ by scatterpattern
March has roared in like a lion, noble ChipWINNERs, and the time has come again to open the Forge to one and all. I’m glad to have you back again for this month’s instalment because I’ve stumbled across an up and comer named scatterpattern, and his debut LSDJ EP, ‘FOLIAGE’ has gotten me quite fired me up.
A farm boy from the rugged wilds of Canada’s Manitoba, scatterpattern didn’t own his first…

This month at the Forge, I delve into BitBurner's arcadestep excellence!
Stoking the Forge: 'Space Junk' by BitBurner
Stoking the Forge: ‘Space Junk’ by BitBurner
A fine February day to one and all of my fellow Chipthusiasts! Clouds blot out the sky, and the rain is heavy, but with the Oregonian winter returning to normal, I can finally rouse myself from my torpor and stoke the forge yet again. This month, my attention is drawn to a free release from a musician with a love of arcade sounds, BitBurner!
I’ve had an ear on BitBurner’s work since discovering…
