Site changes...

Posted Sunday, 9 January 2005 5:31 PM

Had to change a bit of the site today, for a few reasons:

  • Legions of lazy scrabrous mangy fleabags were complaining that they couldn't access the photos link in the menu. So, I've changed it to something thats a lot more ugly, but supposedly cross-browser compatible, and also backwards compatible. And, as an added benefit, I didn't write it, so thats an extra point in ensuring it will actually work. If it doesn't, well.. you know what you can do. Thats right. Whinge about it.
  • Due to overwhealming amounts of spam in the comments on the blogs here (two, thats right, two), I've turned on an option to “make sure you're a human“, rather than a computer. I know that some of you dont technically qualify for the label "human", but we'll just let that slide - you should still be able to handle it. If you dont type in the short string-of-random-characters, it will ignore your comment. So, type it in carefully. But, then again, most of y'all weren't leaving any comments, even when I specifically asked for them, so its not really going to affect you. And, if you cant already tell, I'm a little put out by that.

So, now that I've told you stuff, and had a whinge, I'm going to go and suck my thumb. Again.

English...

Posted Sunday, 9 January 2005 1:54 AM

Just downloading FireFox (which is a different internet browser, like Internet Explorer, but stupider), and i came across the download link:

But... I thought the British invented English...

Nerd bit: If you must know, I'm downloading cos of the increasing number of people using it, and when you write websites, you need to test in all of them. I must say, for a browser that is supposedly so much better that IE, and fully standards compliant, I've found quite a few non-standard-compliant issues with it already - enough to drive me up the proverbial wall.
