It's been a few days since I made an entry in to my blog. Man here in the real world things could not be better. Well they could but what the hey. I have a 2 room apartment now instead of cramming my whole life in to one room. Plus I have a storage room to boot. And the kicker is I'm up on the third floor away from all the noise. Until the pool opens. But that too have its fringe benefits. Bikini babes !!!
Any way It's been going well at the forum. I've made some new friends in the anime world. Kyuubi from AnimeChains. Zero Omega from Jihen Theory, Mike Anime from ARZ ForumZ. We've been tossing ideas around and I swapped links with them. Maybe it will help all of us. We'll see. Right now things are slow all the way around. Got to find a gimmick. This is the hard part.
I'm playing with the background again. The old one, it was suggested, was too distracting. Well I guess they were right, Besides it had nothing to do with anime. I'm cropping and trying out several anime babes to have along the side. How distracting can a cute babe be? Hmm... At any rate I'll be tinkering with all that since I have the picture threads fixed. I really need to find a picture that is less wide so I can park the forum back to the left a bit.
And I'm scratching my head trying to figure out why is VB ignoring the max picture size cap I put on it. A bug perhaps. Hope not. Bugs are hard to fix. Over looking something or just plain putting in the wrong value is easy. Let's see what else?
Oh yeah. I'm taking shots at the home page. I'll try to get that organized as I learn more about how it works. Man I sure liked the old VBadvance CMS. Hell even a dummy like me could make it work. This VB built in version is a learning nightmare. I'll get a handle on it soon and have a snappy looking home page. OH SNAP! Now I remember what I wanted to tell you about. Read on.
If any of you were around when we were running the old version you know I had the tutorials on how to make use of the albums and how to link to pictures in the albums to threads. I got a wild hair and I'm going to be doing that for this version of vbulletin. It's not all that much different. I just want to have a clear way to show members how easy it really is. The tut's were just that way.
Ok belly's a growling so time to go feed the beast. Like Kasey Kasem used to say. Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars.
Later...
