Sorry again to everyone for the lack of updates!!
I’m pretty much up to date with everything which will finally give me time to start blogging again! So stick with me and I’ll have some fresh content coming later on this week.
Apologies for (a) the downtime last week, and (b) the lack of blogs of late. The former was due to some issues with my hosting provider affecting my site and apparently a number of others on the same server as they migrated to newer hardware – seems to be back up and running now, which is good.
As for the latter, last week was the lead-up to my little brother’s wedding (of which I was the best man), so I was spending my evening working on my speech or trying to be a useful brother to the groom. I’m pleased to say the day/night was awesome and brill, I couldn’t be happier to see my brother and his wife (and my sister-in-law) tie the knot and get hitched 🙂
While I won’t have time to elaborate too much more tonight (dinner isn’t too far away!), I have a couple of topics I’m looking forward to exploring on my blog – my latest leg-mangling incident over the weekend, doing karate/martial arts on one leg and a couple of stupid photos for good measure 🙂 Oh, and the latest round of work to my prosthesis. I also have some catch-up work to do and see what my fellow bloggers have been writing about, too!
Stay tuned!
If you’re still using a rubbish browser like IE6, you’ll be pleased to know that the site now displays correctly on your 9 year old POS browser 🙂 It wasn’t all that complicated, it just involved some hacks to compensate for IE’s out of date box model as far as CSS goes. For nerdy types, Wikipedia has an entry on it here.
For the most part, the site runs fine on IE6 now – the only differences are the lack of alpha-blending on PNGs and the image galleries are all single-column instead of two columns.
If you find any more bugs, let me know. As an alternative, you could always migrate to a standards-compliant brower like Firefox 😉
Just tried out the site in IE6 – its totally borked. Stupid Microsoft and its stupid box model. If you’re viewing this in IE6, erm… use another browser, like Firefox or Google Chrome or something 😛 I’ll try and fix the css soon, but in the meantime, use a browser that’s actually standards compliant 😛 That’s my excuse anyways.
It’s 1am, I totally need to go to bed 😛
Anywho, looks like I’ve finished wrapping up the remaining stuff I wanted to do – image galleries are up with a nice little drop-down menu (works in FF3, not sure about other browsers yet), About page is up to date and all my previous blog posts have made it over. The only thing missing is getting the image titles and captions working with the plugins. I’ll sort that out over the next couple of weeks if I remember to get off my arse and check it out 😛
So, welcome to my blog. Hopefully it won’t suck 🙂
