Oopsie

I was fiddling with WordPress on here yesterday and it automatically stuck the redirect/permalink structure doodaa stuff into my .htaccess file (as it does) and umm.. broke something — thus the errors yesterday. Having to type one-handed because I went sshopping yesterday and have pulled a muscle in my arm or something (s’cuse any errors). […]

CSS Reboot

I’ve decided to take part in the Autumn CSS Reboot — I was going to do it in May but didn’t really get chance. Anyway, I’m taking it one step further: not just rebooting my CSS but rebooting everything. I’m shifting back to WordPress. Sort of. When I created my own feed I cocked parts […]

X Factor

I have to admit — rather grudgingly — that I watch the X Factor. I can’t stand the arsing about at the end and the “TEXT A B or C to VOTE” bollocks, but the auditions are a supply of hilarity. The contestants are usually pig-ugly (no offence Emily, your pig is cute) and have […]

Opera — Ad Free

So, Opera have decided to go advertisement free. All fine and groovy, not that they ever bothered me anyway because I personally am a die-hard Mozilla/Firefox fan. Just thought you might like to know in case you’re interested in a new browser. On a site note — the people who write up the content for […]

Addendum

I think my post yesterday was somewhat misleading and I left you all (or most of you) with the impression that I was worried about other people’s opinions on my site. On the contrary, it’s not other people’s opinions that are bugging me — it’s my own! One half of my head is saying “prove […]

Professionalism Sucks

Since I discovered the Internet my main aim in life was to become the world’s greatest designer/developer. I taught myself HTML, CSS and then when I realised there was a newer, better mark-up language (XHTML): I taught myself that too. I delved in to PHP and dabbled with JavaScript; have looked into Perl and I’m […]

Review of fatedfoibles.ca

Reviewed: Manon Site URL: fatedfoibles.ca My first impressions are somewhat mixed. While I like the main image and was pleased to see it loading quickly even on my dial-up, I am not so sure about the green links. Don’t get me wrong, red and green could probably be a good combination, but that particular shade […]

The Cricket

We won the cricket! Some silly Ashes thing that only happens because the Australians beat us and so we burned the wicket — or something. I only found that out last night. Hoorah! Anyway: why am I celebrating this? No, it’s not because I’m a sporty person. I miss when I try to kick a […]

Internet-y Stuff

Thank you for the compliments on the slightly edited version of the layout. There’s a few bugs I need to fix (as you can see, I changed the font) but I’m waiting for my ‘owed’ reviews first so I can do everything at once and not miss anything. If you get bored, feel free to […]
