Standards? Me? No thanks!
So after finally getting a fair bit of the mod_rewrite and general hacking of wordpress needed to make it all fit in nice and neat with the rest of the site I started thinking about the rss feed icon. This lil image has been around a while and was quite boring and didn’t really fit in where it was placed: in the iframe below the blog_name text. So I went off on a wander around the webness searching for different and possibly interesting icons to use instead of the b(l)og standard one. Lo and behold I found this neat little chap, one of a pair infact on this here blogwebsitething. A little editing in Gimp later and we have this neat little chap, comment out the code for the rssfeed in the blog itself and add it to the main site and tah dah. Now he looks very cute but the rest of my site didn’t really match, going from the plain black&white of the original to beige/brown/black of the newer one really made me think about the lack of “decent” colour schemes used in most peoples websites. Anywho I wanted my little RSS chap, who I shall name Bob, to feel relaxed and fit in so I thought I’d try and mod the text on the pages to fit in with the colour, unfortunately this didn’t really work and most of the text became unreadable. So I decided what the hey and tried changing the back ground of the site to fit in with, and I think it looks much, much better this way, I may change the colour of the iframe stuff when I get round to it, but I think it looks quite groovey atm. So here it is, 3am and I’m waiting up for my incomings to appear so I can scrape ome def together for them whilst firefox is busy telling me I’ve spelt “colour” incorrectly and me verbalising at it to bog off. I’ve run out of beer but the pepsi stocks remain intact, I’ve got massive attack on the ipod, half a packet of cigerettes and I’m wearing sunglasses. I like my life 
Join me tomorrow for the fun and frollocks of installing phpbb3 when ubuntu’s repositry version of phpbb2 is severely fucked in the ass.
Gnight all, stay funky.
P.S. trying to type this on an EEE whilst it’s within the iframe is endless fun
