If you go here and sign up to be inundated with spam and print ads and agree to, say, join BMG and buy some Frontline from some competing-with-PetMeds.com-website, they’ll send you a Sony Vaio. And/or they’ll send you things like DVD players and coffee makers to “test” and keep. I’m so on the verge of […]
My latest webmistress gig is now up and running: ammaiowa.org I used MT in a new way – more as a layout management app than a content management app… I took out a lot of MT’s built-in stuff. It seems to have worked out pretty well.
Brett rented a tractor this weekend and fixed the driveway. Turns out the culvert itself was totally fine; it was just that Nature had decided not to use it and instead had made a new path under the driveway… a much lower path, which is why the pond’s been so low for the past two […]
It rained yesterday and much of the night. Our driveway – a culvert between a pond and a runoff – collapsed. Now there’s a hole smack dab in the center that’s about three feet wide and twelve feet deep. Do you have any idea how much it will cost to FIX THIS?!?!? Arrrrgh!
Today I re-installed LevelTen Hit Counter. I’d run this app on the site before, but when it broke I’d never bothered to fix it. I love this stat tracker – it’s robust, free, and easy to install. The graphic you have to run is a little annoying, but free is free. The downside is that […]
“…but Microsoft isn’t planning to go the whole way and make IE 7.0 fully CSS2 compliant, sources said”: CSS Support Could Be Internet Explorer’s Weakest Link.
Today I finally got around to installing the ‘nofollow’ plugin on all the sites I administer that are running MT: goblinbox.com, iowachicksknitting.com, amma-fairfield.org, and edensharvest.net. This means that I have done my part in making comments-spam less lucrative. Now all those comments won’t increase search engine standings! TAKE THAT, YOU RAT BASTARDS.
Gallery is pissing me off. There’s only so much you can do to the layout using CSS – some of the stuff’s done with HTML and I can’t figure out how to edit it. There aren’t any obvious templates in the app’s files, and all I can find are fairly gay skins that I don’t […]
Now that I’m on a decent server, I was able to install Gallery, an app that builds galleries automatically from uploaded images, comes with skins, is free, and allows commenting. Check it out: the goblinbox.com Gallery.
