switching it up

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 16:51:00 +0000

I want to convert this from a blogger site to a blogspot site. I should really be working on other work.

New Stool

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 16:16:00 +0000

Got it Friday night. Don't ask how or where.

Update? Something.

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 17:18:00 +0000

Still working on the start up and learning Drupal everyday.
Normally I don't post files or links (or much of anything) but I love this.

Where I've been

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 03:46:00 +0000

I'm working on something big.

Minor updates

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 20:28:00 +0000

Changed some CSS rules and some links, no big deal.

At last

3 months and 1 day since last post? Wow. What a slacker you turned out to be.
Anywho, it's Halloween and here's your treat:
The reCAPTCHA dealie is finally up and active on the contact page. It's only took me 15 minutes of serious thought/work. I could've done this months ago when I first mentioned it.

My internet service has been on the blink for a while now, thus the lack of updates. I really gotta get moving on that capthcha thing, because the spam has rolled right in.

Human verifcation, part 2

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Tue, 29 May 2007 23:08:00 +0000

This isn't quite as easy as I hoped. The technology is called CAPTCHA (read more at Wikipedia).
At this point I'm opting for a service called reCAPTCHA, which uses the words to help digitize books. Sounds like a good thing.

It looks like this is going to take some serious back end which I could honestly use more practice doing anyway.

But not today. I just made myself a lovely margarita with fresh squeezed key lime juice. So that's what I'm doing right now.

human verification

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Tue, 29 May 2007 22:13:00 +0000

I'm looking into this. You know those little pictacodes where you have to enter a blurry word or number combination to prove that you're not some sort of spam bot.
I've received enough gibberish emails through my site to want to try this. Hopefully it'll be up in the next day or so.

Reminder.

Dear Worker Self,

Don't forget to add favicon.

Sincerely,
Lazy Self.

May update.

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Fri, 04 May 2007 21:17:00 +0000

The pertinent content up all up and functional as far as I know.
It's May thought I should put up a post. Kentucky Derby tomorrow.

Juleps!

Progress report

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Fri, 27 Apr 2007 20:02:00 +0000

Resume is up. Web, compositing, and video sections of my portfolio have been updated and
are active. Just letting you know.

Who are you?

Survey

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Fri, 27 Apr 2007 17:31:00 +0000

Take the survey if you're a web person too.

Here's why I took it: http://www.zeldman.com/2007/04/25/the-profession-that-dare-not-speak-its-name/
Love Zeldman, love A List Apart. Gotta learn somewhere.

In case you're wondering...

The bit on the home page that says, "lies told" refers to image retouching and manipulation.

That doesn't mean I won't lie to you.

New toys.

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Thu, 26 Apr 2007 23:44:00 +0000

I just started playing with the new Adobe Dreamweaver CS3. The interface is obviously different than my old WYSIWYG, but then again GoLive is dead. So far, so good.

Better still.

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Mon, 12 Mar 2007 22:09:00 +0000

Switched to Georgia serif family. Hit the road Trebuchet!
Post titles are still Verdana, and they'll stay that way for now.

Cleaner.

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Mon, 12 Mar 2007 21:43:00 +0000

"About Me" section gone. I didn't care for the description either. A little bit more template editing and we'll be there.

Getting better.

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Mon, 12 Mar 2007 18:54:00 +0000

It's getting better, but I'm still not loving it. The CSS is a little dense (read: more complex than I'm used to) and I'd like to shrink down or remove the "About Me" section as it's ugly and unnecessary to me. I'll delve into that at another time.

Yuck. Default is ugly.

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Mon, 12 Mar 2007 17:48:00 +0000

This thing is huge. You will not need glasses. Not yet anyway. I've got some CSS editing to do.

Learning to blog.

noreply@blogger.com (thms) — Mon, 12 Mar 2007 17:26:00 +0000

This is the first attempt at incorporating a blog into a web page that is hosted elsewhere. We'll see how this works so that I can add this to my bag of programming tricks. No comments for this one.
