| Re: Your very own, REAL personal blog Sorry for the delay, but I can't pull up the new site right now. Once I can though I'll create the blogs for those that have requested one. I've received emails from Marc, ATM, Gargoyle and FLBettaCouple and I could only get Marc's set up before I started having probs pulling up the website.
I keep gettin a time-out on one of the later hops when doing a tracert when the connection hits xo.net. Hopefully the DNS just has to cascade to all the servers and by tomorrow I should be able to connect. Once I can connect, I'll be able to set everything up.
Marc - no prob, at least it sounds like you can connect to the new website. |

| Re: Your very own, REAL personal blog yea, it shouldn't usually take very long to update the DNS lookup tables. (unless the gov't spy computers are running slow  ) |

If you all haven't checked out these blogs, they're looking great. Great design choices.

I'd setup your domain (such as mike.fishlore.com) and then install the blog software for you (wordpress blog) I may even be able to walk you through creating your own look and feel or setting up one of the tons of templates. That is once I get everything ironed out. Here's a list of themes you could use or you could even make your own if you're handy with css: http://themes.wordpress.net/
I think it'd be kinda cool to have a little network of blogs on Fishlore. I would have to come up with some rules and guidelines first, but I wanted to see what everyone thought first.
Would anyone be interested in this? Is this a good idea or a dumb one?
Please lemme know your thoughts. | I think it's a great idea. I would be interested if it's not just for moderators. |

Mike's made it available to everyone, he does all the work to setup your blog-space, then you can customize it and work on it, put content in, etc. I hope we get some spare time to work on ours soon. lol |

| Re: Your very own, REAL personal blog Nah, I doubt it. Anyway, is it possible to put background music on? |

| Re: Your very own, REAL personal blog Yes, it is - but keep in mind that background music gets annoying FAST.  |

| Re: Your very own, REAL personal blog Yeah - I beg you not to do the background music - I never visit myspace sites because of the music on the pages. Can't find the stop or pause button fast enough. There could also be copyright issues involved and I for one don't feel like being contacted by the sue happy RIAA.
To change your theme, download the one you want, unzip it to a folder on your hard drive and then upload (FTP) that unzipped folder to the wp-content/themes directory. You should see a "classic" and a "default" folder inside the themes directory and you'll now you're in the right place. Once it's uploaded, select the new theme from your dashboard and ta da! |
