I’ve imported all posts from my other blogs into this one. I’ve gone in and password protected some. If you want the password, let me know.

Search box

I know I still need to fix the width of the comment box, but how about the search box, does it show up properly for you? It does sometimes for me, other times it doesn’t.

Blog Plans

If you’ll notice in the top left corner below the very close up shot of lil’ ol’ me, you’ll see that a Photoblog and a Musicblog are “coming soon.” Here’s an explanation.

If you remember back in the day when I was actually updating this thing, I had a photoblog. It was rockin. Well, ok, so it only had about 4 pictures on it. Point being, I’m going to make another one (since I forgot to back that one up last time around) and since I don’t forsee using 56k in the near future, I’ll actually have the patience to update it.

Now, on to the Musicblog. This is something I’ve never seen done before and it has an interesting history. For about a year now, I’ve been wanting to start at the beginning of my music collection (in alphabetical order by artist, then chronological order by album, with the exception of tapes which I haven’t alphabetized period) and listen to one cd a day (though I know I’ll miss days) and just go through the entire thing so that in about 2 years I will have listened to every album I own. Katie said that I should blog it all with a review of every one of them and, you know what? I’m going to. I’ll probably eventually have recent entries in each along the sidebar of the main blog (what you’re reading right now) with a wee-ickle thumbnail image for the recent photoblog entries and the album title for the musicblog entries. Since Dave gave me the quick crash course in Movable Type, I feel confident that I can handle all that.

Anyway, just thought you’d be interested in knowing what would be soon to come.

But maybe you don’t care.

Updating

The blog is going to be badly broken for a while. I’m doing major updates to the moneyburger site, and to save space I’m using the same MT framework, so I had to remove the previous one. I didn’t think to back up the images, that was my downfall *L* Anyway, it’ll all be back soon.

Testing Zempt

I just got Zempt. It’s a Movable Type desktop client. I think this is more convenient than going to the website or using a bookmartket, so…
Hoping it works.

Style

Yes, again, I have updated the style. I just need to change the images at the top and we’ll be in business.

Layout done

OK I have my layout done for the most part. I think I’m going to redo the colors some. I just did black on white because I wasn’t really sure… but that won’t take long. Finally have everything up I want as far as content goes. Maybe I’ll start using this as more than a blog about the blog.

Phew…

OK I got most of what I want to do with the blog done. It took me forever to get the calendar in the right place, because I assumed that the class “topcorner” in the CSS was the top LEFT corner, when it was actually the top RIGHT corner, so I freaked out some. but oh well, it’s there. Finally changed the slightly provocative default text that came under “listening,” “reading.” “watching,” and “blogroll.”

Not much more to be done, but it’ll probably be a lot of busy work.

One thing’s for sure, this is a learning experience.

New style

I found a nice style generator on the net, because I apparently suck at choosing colors that look good together. So the links on the left: Just ignore them, they were default blogs that came with the style, I’m gonna change them eventually.
