Posting seems to be working

Posting seems to be working fine. I still have an issue to resolve with links being a 9pt font and everything else is 10pt. I’m sure I just missed a tag somewhere. I also have to find a way to change the titles with out going to the site. At the moment it automatically take the first 5 words and uses that. Kinda crappy. I also have to fix the comments… which I’ve broken badly somehow. Maybe Chris can give me a hand with that. Again, I’m sure it’s just a simple check box or code line somewhere that I’ve overlooked. I just talked to Chip and we’ll be playing games around 7:30, so that’ll be good. Gotta run though, we’re having bergers on the grill. Yum.

Almost There

95% done. You should be able to actually see this now. I still have to format the template a little (since there’s things missing, like DATES!) and play with some CSS, but it’s coming a long nicely. By tonight or tomorrow I should be all set. A big big thanks to Chris for helping my fix just about everything. Thanks!

Tonight is game night, so I’ll be playing a little CS and unwinding a bit. That should be fun. That’s about it. Later

Well, I’ve been tinkering more

Well, I’ve been tinkering more and more with Moveable Type and thanks to Chris I actually have something to show for it. All that I left to do is convert over my old posts and tinker with some CSS a little. I’m debating doing away with the CSS all together but its still up in the air. I might just simplify it a great deal. At the moment the default CSS page is huge, with about 30-40 different entries. I don’t think I need that many. At the most I’d use about 5, but certainly not 40. I need a defined “content”, “date/time/comment/author”, “title” and then a few for the comments box, that’s about it. I certainly don’t need a defined style for “calendar sub heading.” That’s just excessive. Anyway, I’ll do those two things tomorrow and then I should be ready to rock and role. It’ll look 95% like it does right now with a few random things appearing on the right hand side, but that’s about all you’ll notice for changes. So, the final changes will take up the morning and then converting stuff and moving everything will take up the afternoon and if all goes as planned, I’ll have a new journal up for “game night” tomorrow.

Rock.
