rants, work - design

So like, this design isn’t working. ::lol:: I mean, I still like the overall appearance, but changing stuff is still too much work… and I keep pushing myself to do it too often. Not to mention, I’m running out of cool color schemes to try. -_-;

I’ll have to take out a page from Alex’s latest Apollo and think about how to re-do it so that I’m just changing hex color codes every time I want a page color shift, instead of using the fake-columns background-image trick. Then I’ll be able to do what Mezzoblue does, too, by just grabbing colors straight out of an image that I want to use as a header.

… This’ll all have to wait, though. -_-; Let’s see…

  • Mom’s website (/cry)
    • need to finalize a design.
    • need to check out WordPress and see if I can do everything I want to do in it (probably, but will take some learning)
  • Keep working on Voices
    • did a lot of this prior to TIC starting, but haven’t even looked at it since then. Basically I want to reset Aida’s database (which will be very sad, but necessary, since the database structure is different now), but it’ll have to wait until after I catch Voices up to at least replacing pronouns again. Which requires coming up with the live substitution syntax that I wanted. Nyarrrggh.
  • TIC07 design/site — check!
    • two weeks down, four more to go in the summer. wow.
  • Consider Punkcraft redesign
  • Consider kismetesque redesign! >_>;
  • Keep on top of grad school related business
    • I haff an apartment at least. Lease was signed and it starts Aug 1st.
    • Class registration is this Friday! :o And I may or may not be able to actually register for those classes, cause my degree verification may or may not arrive and/or get processed by then… but apparently it doesn’t matter, cause the department is going to reserve space for me anyway. Yayz.
    • Graduate Student orientation is Aug 20th… so I’ll have to go south before then. I think my pareents suggested Aug 10th, so that doesn’t leave me a whole lot of time after ATDP, sadly. Oh well.
