that’ll have to do for now…

There are still some positioning issues to be worked out, and a lot of text to be written, but I really should get back to working on new pictures, since that’s supposed to be the point of the site…

getting there…

Well, the galleries have been somewhat repopulated, and I’ve got at least placeholder text up where I need it…I’m still working on incorporating a “comment view” for each of the pictures to encourage people to leave feedback, and I’d like to add a bit of descriptive text to some of the pics as well. I still haven’t figured out how to get the navigation links in the gallery view to show up where I want them to, but at least they’re present, and functional.

I’m really hoping to get the site-building done, and a few ‘new’ pics posted before the end of the weekend..but of course, now that I’ve typed that, I’ve cursed myself and it’s never going to happen
Still working on the MU project I mentioned, and I know I owe pictures to several people…if any of you are reading this, I promise I haven’t forgotten! My schedule’s just been a bit crazy this past week or two, and it’s taking me longer than it should to get this done >.<

under construction

I’m in the process of completely reconstructing my website to be lighter (both in colour and bandwidth) and a bit more adaptable to different browser sizes.
…I never would have thought something so simple looking could be so difficult to write >.<
It took me nearly a week to find a way to make the paper edges scalable, and now I'm struggling with integrating WordPress. I don't actually plan on blogging, but I wanted something to keep track of recent additions to the galleries that would allow any site visitors to leave feedback on the pictures as they come in. It looked simple enough..but the backend feels bloated with features I'm not planning to use, and it's really picky about keeping files exactly where it wants them I'm going to have to do a bit of ugly hacking in order to maintain control over the actual galleries...

Most of the old content should (hopefully) be up within the next couple of days, but I don’t have access to a lot of the work I did between my last site update and about a year ago. I do have a number of more recent things to add, including a special treat for fans of MU. The backlog of pictures I need to get done in the next few weeks seems to be growing though, and I’m not at all looking forward to going back to work ToT.
