Well, after spending over a month beating my brains out against my laptop, I finally have a template for both the blog and the website that I like. I hope you like the roses, because they are here to stay. Some fun facts I discovered while building this template: Lesson #1 - While Internet Explorer doesn’t seem to care too much, Firefox is very picky about how you use the DIV tag and its attributes. Do it right or don’t do it at all. Lesson #2 - The nifty label widget that Blogger developed doesn’t entirely work with blogs hosted outside Blogger. Oh, you still get the labels, but not the nice little list of topics at the side. Bummer. That’s what I liked best about that feature. Lesson #3 - PNG is a much nicer graphics format to work with than GIF. Both will give you transparency, but the graphics stay more crisp and clear in PNG. PNG is also more flexible in allowing you to decide what colors are transparent. Fireworks will let me choose more than one color for the transparency when working with PNG. Of course, PNG is a bit more of a memory hog, but I thought it was worth. Lesson #4 - You absolutely can not fix errors in your html code when you have two small children screaming at you to either a) get them more milk, or b) change their poopy diapers. Okay, I know that list is not sexy and not even remotely related to erotica, but hey, it's how I've been spending my days lately. Enjoy the site! Labels: Site update |
