Fixed

I think I should have the glitches with my blog fixed. If you are still having viewing problems, please let me know. According to callowqueen I had already fixed the problem for her, though it still showed up when I was testing the page on my PC. Anyway, it looks right on my PC now so I hope it looks right for everyone else as well.

I'm working on updating my website now—a project I've needed to work on for quite some time now... Unfortunately, it's one of those tasks that just gets put off until you get to the point where you look at your design and think, “I could do so much better than that now.’ Then you find yourself wanting to redo it all, but then you'll get distracted before you finish and by the time you get back around to it again you won't like that design either.

So, I'm taking Franklin McMahon's advice and just jumping in, even if it isn't perfect. I can continue adjusting it as I go, but the important thing is to get content up there. Part of the reason I've been holding off on writing more of my fanfic is because I wanted to direct people to my newly redesigned website in the post. I'm pathetic, I know. But maybe I'll actually get that done too if I get the website done. I'm sick of having unfinished projects laying around everywhere. They start to wear on you after awhile.

I'll leave you with a little tidbit I found when I was browsing the internet the other day. The Surrealist has a bunch of random word and name games and I had fun playing around with them. Here are a couple I think you might appreciate.

On the main page, the right column is shifted down, so half the picture, your bio info, links and stuff start half way down the page. This wasn't a problem when I clicked to view just this entry.

The problem is that you need to empty your cache, I think. It doesn't make sense for it to work on one page and not another when they are using the exact same code. Try emptying your cache, restarting your browser and checking again.

That didn't work...

I like our definitions of those words better. ;)

Your "fixes" worked for me ... I'm viewing on a PC with Explorer and things look great. I hate these glitchy web things.
