SODAPOP.NU JOINS THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY

After days of slaving away in my extra time, Sodapop.nu has now been converted to Wordpress!

This odyssey has included

• developing my own Wordpress theme (no.. like.... REALLY developing the hell out of it)
  
• using WAMP to test the theme..
• posting my art now, WOOOO!!
• posting some new photos and getting the ability to post older shit, WOOOO!!
• killing the photoblog :( Aww, but it's been integrated fully, so it lives on!
  
• making the ability to add comments to photos/art in a manner that doesn't piss me off or spam my inbox! (..knock on wood...)
  
• making pretty Permalinks

.... and probably more, but I can't remember exactly as this has been a long process.

But, WOOOOO!! I think I can actually post now like a normal human!

Oopsies.

If you've left a comment on the photoblog in the past few months and I didn't respond, these 3000+ snowballing comments from fake Canadian pharmacies that I just don't have the willpower to sift through could be why.

ell oh ell...

Found this on accident earlier and it made me giggle.

Shhh.

I haven't read one of these in a long time.

It's really the little projects that I take for granted.

Here's a REALLY little one. For now, anyway.

It's just a placeholder page until I get something up there. (Well, the somethings exist, they just aren't digitized. Or uploaded. Or with a decent framework so I won't abandon them after a month.) But just putting the placeholder was somewhat motivating.

More things to add somewhere: layouts (in an acceptable manner), avatars & signatures (these are especially awkward and I may have them GET THEIR OWN SITE OOOOOOOOHHH!!).

...... REALLY? I managed to change a layout in LESS than a year! OH MY GOD, ALERT THE PRESS.

Hmm, anyway, who knows how long this one will stay up.

What I'd really like to do at this point is find a nice content management system suitable for art and images. You know, where each image could exist on its own, as a 'post', with 'tags', as well as in a gallery. I've tried to find something before, but obviously to no avail. Like pixelpost, but better. I'd really like to have an easy way to post things. You know, so maybe I would once in a while.

Eventually, what's going to happen is, if I can't find one I'm going to write my own.

But that could be possible in a precariously long amount of time. And I am IMPATIENT.

P.s. Why, Internet Explorer, will Blogger no longer WORK for you? The last few posts I've written, I've had to close out of IE and use Firefox to post. And generally, this makes me angry.

I'M IN LOVE

I had my first experience with Adobe Illustrator this week.

It was love at first click. <3

In terms of relevancy, I'm done with the layout, so whenever I've stopped obsessing over it, I'll put it up.

I actually hate the word 'huzzah'

I should be sleeping or doing economics homework but instead I'm up late working on a rehaul of my little web kingdom. HUZZAH!
