Our Little Corner
November 18, 2006 at 2:55 am




I suppose there is always bumpy ride during transition, but this is our new little corner. In the coming weeks, everybody at MdM will try to learn wordpress input window differences. So all little quirkiness, misalignment, wrong links should be expected. There are plenty of broken pictures in archive that will be fixed. And if the site is slow uploading, it means a clever goblin is tweaking the template or plugins. Give it time, before things go right back to full speed again. Comment has also been made open as wide as possible. (In the past several days it was set up incorrectly) In the meantime, there is always new post and music.
Argus
When wise Ulysses, from his native coast
Long kept by wars, and long by tempests toss’d,
Arrived at last, poor, old, disguised, alone,
To all his friends, and ev’n his Queen unknown,
Changed as he was, with age, and toils, and cares,
Furrow’d his rev’rend face, and white his hairs,
In his own palace forc’d to ask his bread,
Scorn’d by those slaves his former bounty fed,
Forgot of all his own domestic crew,
The faithful Dog alone his rightful master knew!
Unfed, unhous’d, neglected, on the clay
Like an old servant now cashier’d, he lay;
Touch’d with resentment of ungrateful man,
And longing to behold his ancient lord again.
Him when he saw he rose, and crawl’d to meet,
(’Twas all he could) and fawn’d and kiss’d his feet,
Seiz’d with dumb joy; then falling by his side,
Own’d his returning lord, look’d up, and died!

Man, the new place looks good so far. How’s the hosting working out? Lot easier to upload?
So is this whole site still slow? also need to fix little font placements, sidebar items, bla bla…
anyway, need input. so Moka can get busy tweaking stuff. haa..
Yeah, there are a couple of speed issues loading [no big deal]… the fonts are also crazy small across the board, looking at it in Firefox, of course. Just letting you know. The sidebar looks alright — will you be re-adding the shoutbox? Just curious.
yeah. I think it’s the K2 template. That thing is gigantic with all sort of java going everywhere.
Sidebar items are going to get added over the weekend I guess. So by early nextweek everything is all there.

Hosting, so far seems good. Until we figure out what makes WP goes slow. probably should try with Kubrik theme see if it goes faster … dunno. don’t want to change too many stuff, cause it goes pretty slow.
Wordpress is VERY fast… but yeah, the K2 theme is really big.
i’m gonna work on tweaking mine a bit, and if i can’t get it to a speed i’m comfortable with, i may just write my own theme.
