Return of the Skins…

I am in the slow process of bringing the skins back to this site, just in time for the 1 year anniversary of when I first skinned it! I am reminded once again why I hate CSS. In the basic blue skin, the dates are very wonky. In my old pink skin with the pictures of me it’s even worse. I have no idea why and I can’t find a fix – so I gave up, at least for now. I had a lot of other skins to work on! The dark grey skin with the Pixelog thumbnails has returned, and it’s working just fine.

Next I added the pink cookie and cheerful skin that Kristine made for me.

After that, I made a skin using a photo sent to me by Chris. This one proves that Big Pink Cookies will take over the world!

More skins to come soon! Big Pink Cookies for everyone! Let me know if you like them, what you think of them, and if anything is broken for you!

Look It Up…

Working in the internet field, sometimes people throw terms at me that I’ve never heard of, or I need a good description of how something works to pass on to a client. Yesterday, Jeff – one of our network techs – pointed me to Webopedia: Online Dictionary for Computer and Internet Terms. Great information, easy to find things, and I’ve already used it to explain to a client what XML means.

I have also used WhatIs in the past, but the search in PCWebopedia was faster, and the information seems to be more concise.

Skins, Returning to a Blog Near You…

I’m going to try to bring skins back to the blog this weekend, but I have a *long* to-do list of other things to do too. So I’m considering being lazy and just using the same pop-up window design (with my smiling face all over it) for the pop-ups on other skins. You guys don’t mind, do you?
