Just a funny

Posted by Brett Pringle on May 19, 2008 in Just for Fun, Mobile

Not really a good excuse to post on the blog, but i had to share. Lovely to have a mobile that takes fairly decent pictures.

Spotted this car parked at the robots down the road from the house, snapped a shot. Amazing at what the traffic cops will stick a ticket on, when there are much more serious things for them to do

Anyway, will start posting properly within the next few days after the last final tweaks to the blog. CSS… oh boy

New Blog – installation

Posted by Brett Pringle on May 17, 2008 in Wordpress

Hey All,

After a bit of begging, finally have my own domain and blog. Since friday afternoon, the setup has, well, been a nightmare. Seems the new version, 2.5.1 of wordpress has massive changes including no author Bio page appearing anymore as in previous versions. Plugins are not compatible yet, so i’ve had a very limited choice in what to add to my blog from an admin side.

One frustrating issue, having to find a theme for the blog. Finding a appealing/eye catching design takes awhile, but actually loading it up and seeing what the design looks like live is disappointing. Thousands of themes later, and all i can come into conclusion is, the plain designs can’t handle what you really need. So be prepared for the look and feel of the blog to change somewhat as i get to grips with PHP and some basic design.
