Website Troubles and Future Updates
March 20th, 2008

Any good website designer knows to check out his or her website in multiple browsers to make sure it is rendering ok... So of course I did not do this. Well I just happened to get on a family member's laptop today, which happens to be running Windows Vista, and out of boredom I decided to see what this site looks like in Internet Explorer. Surprise Surprise it looks like crap. Internet Explorer doesn't render it anything like Firefox does, which would have been nice if it did. I guess sometime soon I'll tweak the format and try to get a little more consistency. I may have to do away with my div layers and just go with tables.

Now I realize I haven’t updated the site in a while, mostly due to school work, but hopefully I'll get on that soon. My next tutorial is going to cover a problem I had early on in my Linux adventure. I started off by getting a sweet black desktop wallpaper and made my GNOME panel transparent. I thought it looked pretty sweet, or would have looked sweet if the panel's text color wasn't black. The text blended right in with the wallpaper, which obviously isn't desirable. Long story short, I did some research and found out how to change the text color. It’s a little more complicated than I would have like, but it works. I'll be sure to get that tutorial up sometime soon.
