Sven D'Hooghe

Welcome

Hello world.

I've been an internaut for roughly 25 years now and I wanted my own place again, after we were forced to take elsven.com down a couple years ago. Els & Sven have now become the family D'Hooghe-Windeit so dhooghe.info was born. My eldest boys each have there own website and Els can finally get back to writing down all those recipes for when they are cooking.

Besides teaching them how to do that, I am always working on several projects. 

If I've sent you an email about one of those projects you can log in at the top right corner with the credentials I've provided

What kind of projects ?

  • Learning and improving in video editing ( see Shotcut ) to help Damian on his quest for a YouTube channel
  • Learning GIMP . It's a free alternative to Photoshop but I'm still trying to unlearn everything I picked up from Coreldraw, Paint Shop Pro and Photoshop during the years. I'm sure I'll get the hang of it in '23. Sorry Adobe I can't afford your software.
  • Refreshing PHP and learning version 8 - Check out projects in the future. I'll publish them when they're ready
  • Learning SAP. I would really like to learn this software to improve my resume but it isn't easy to find sources that aren't a money scam
  • Learning to make 3D models ( see TinkerCad ) so I can teach myself how to print them on a 3d printer
  • Learning Ubuntu. Many old computers are still in good working condition but not everybody can afford to upgrade in time. At that point I reinstall them with Lubuntu so they can still be used for surfing, media watching or simple administration. Occasionally I do this as a volunteer for schools or a NGO
