More updates to the site…

The good news? Plenty of update to the site. The not as good news? Still way behind on picture posts. Shocking, I know. :doze:

Here’s what’s been going on:

  • Random Pic on the News page
  • New headings for the News page to tie it a bit more into the rest of the site
  • Playing with displaying the News on the Main page – not sure if I like the presentation, though…
  • Because you never demanded it! Four, count ’em, four random corner graphics for the Main page. Embrace the silliness! Or not.
  • When adding pictures to the site, there’ll now be “Updated” and “New” indicators so folks will know what’s been added. At least that’s the way it’s supposed to work.

I think that’s all for now. Now, what to break next… 😉

Welcome to the new digs…

After some hassles here and there with the old webhost, I finally took the plunge and moved the site to a new home. In addition to (hopefully) increased stability, I’ve been able to convert the News and Pictures sections over to some new software. Things are looking good so far, but don’t be surprised if you run across some broken links here and there while we get settled in.

I’ve still got to update this part of the site to fit in with everything else, looks-wise, but I’ve already been able to post some new shots in the Pictures section. Enjoy!

Success!

Well, I think I’ve finally got the hang of Greymatter, and so far things are working pretty well. Still need to get everything looking the way I want, but otherwise we’re good to go. Gotta love that. 🙂 Now let’s see if I keep this sucker more up-to-date or not. And why should I have all the fun? There are also some new bells and whistles you get to play with:
– post your own comments
– search for older entries
– view entries by month

I know – I can’t stand the excitement either. 😉

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!

As usual, I’m way behind on updates. Good news, though: Just stumbled on this great piece of code called Greymatter and I’m in the process of converting this page over to use it. Pretty slick way to go about it, if you ask me. Once everything’s in place it should be a lot easier for me to keep this information “fresh”.

In more important news, Jean and our daughter-to-be are doing well as the due date quickly approaches. One more month (or so) to go!
