Blogging

More hours than I will ever admit, one headache <<<THIS>>> big and voila, a new site!!

Tagged:  

This is the second time I have moved my blog. The first was from Microsoft Live Spaces to Blogger. Then, I secretly moved to WordPress but never really notified anyone of the jump as I was trying to get better at writing code (something I've totally failed at). Now, here I am, at MaciagOnline.net

For the most part, I had no major problems at Blogger. Minor irritations: hated formating pictures in my blogs (the preview never matched reality) and I hated being limited to the very static and boring templates provided. I had been fine before they upgraded to new Blogger... but not knowing how to write CSS posed a major problem and any forays into trying to learn it just had me screaming.

I'm not sure that using drupal will be any different. I've already encountered a few problems and I'm far from proficient at this. My brother is irritated beyond belief with my cries and calls for help. I believe the term "dumb-ass" was thrown my way....

The reason I moved was to have to freedom to make whatever kind of changes I wanted with no restrictions. That said, not knowing more than the very basics will mean this is a work in progress (read: may never look much different due to my laziness/dumb-assness).

So take a look around. Some things work. Some things don't. I'm getting to it!!

I have been trying to find a way to display pictures in a slideshow format that I like. I stumbled across this site Splashr and it has really cool ways of presenting your flickr photos. Naturally, you need to have a flickr account and really, what are you waiting for, it's free and super easy to use!

Here is an example of what you can do -- I used our recent NYC pics as an example. I like this because you can read what each picture is a picture of...

Ok, I'll admit it...

Sometimes, I'm not brightest star in the sky...

I thought no one was commenting (pout) -- then my dear sweet husband asked if I had read his comment and I was like, "nobody ever comments...(sulk)."

So I checked -- and I had like 6 comments waiting for my approval... I was like YAY!!! I've now turned off that silly 'moderate comments' function... so comment away!!

btw -- you can also comment on individual pictures at my flickr site -- just click on the slideshow on the right and it will take you to a selection of photos -- I'll try to add some new ones this weekend...

Soon we will say good-bye to msnspaces! We are tired of Internet Explorer, MSN, and MSNSpaces always crashing…

**Below this post i've started moving posts from msn spaces... I will probably only do this for 2006 -- older posts will remain archived at msn spaces**

 

 

We're in the process of switching! Testing this out.
