My Life, On a Bookshelf

I was in the bedroom thinking again last night (anyone spot a trend here?) and came to the conclusion that my bookcase, the one that Karl went out and bought in August, perfectly represents my life. How sad is that, eh? My life can be ‘explained’ within three shelves. First, there’s the bottom shelf: There’s […]

Review-You Probably Closing

I was thinking about Review-You last night whilst tidying up in the bedroom (completely irrelevant, I know) and have come to the conclusion that it is probably best if I close the website when the domain name expires. Don’t get me wrong, I love reviewing, love owning the site and love the fact that people […]

tutorialtastic is live!

Finally, tutorialtastic is live. After some minor issues with a some .htaccess magic, and a moment of last minute panic where I realised I needed to use “../” before internal links in all of my tutorials; I have it up! There’s still some links which’ll be broken until I fix them, some tutorials that didn’t […]

Site Updates

I’ve been doing a few updates to coding around the site whilst working on tutorialtastic for tomorrow, and that includes enabling comments on my reviews — it’s just the web ones at the moment but will extend to the book and game reviews. I’ve also updated the sitemap and answered the few pending few pending […]

looking for volunteers

I’m looking for volunteers! As most of you have probably heard (because I haven’t stopped going on about it) I have been developing tutorialtastic none stop for the past couple of weeks and I intend to get the new version up on Friday. My patience depending, of course. Anyway, when it’s released I want it […]

Back To Work

Karl’s back to work after his half term break today so not only does that mean I had to get up at 6:30am this morning, but I’ve got to get off my lazy ass and visit a job agency today. Job agency, back to bed.. job agency, back to bed.. such a tough choice. *snore* […]

Quick Note to Visitors

This is partly aimed at Sonya and partly at those who’ve graced my FAQ/contact box with their oh-so-lovely questions and comments analysing my website (and as such, my personality) despite not knowing me at all… If you’re going to tell me how to run my own website at least have a successful one yourself. I […]

Ooh, Aren’t I Clever?

I’ve invented a new method of skinning. Oh yes, me, I am the best. :P No one else gets the code yet, ’cause it’s one of the new tutorials on tutorialtastic (or it will be, when the site is up). Basically, it’s smaller and tidier than the original method of skinning that seems to be […]

Fucking Farce!

Talk about a cock-up. Excuse my profanities.. I’m incredibly pissed off. While Karl and I don’t usually do anything for Valentines Day (meh, just another day to me) we decided to do the 20 minute drive to the local supermarket to pick up a bottle of wine and some quick grub (and some chocolate, for […]

Potential New Default Theme

I came up with a new design.. only I can’t decide if I like it enough to make it the new default theme. I don’t think Karl likes it either, he pulled a funny face when I showed him. :P In version 1 the header is full width and fixed (in Firefox, anyway) — when […]
